Hi :-)

For the shell, just insert a line like this in it's icon tooltypes : without the quotes! ;-)

"WINDOW=CON:0/16/800/584/Shell/CLOSE"

this will tell it to open a CON: type window (CONsole or CLI/Shell) at 0 pixel Left and 16 pixel Down from Top (just under the Screen Title Bar + 1 pixel for neatness), 800 pixel Long by 584 pixel Tall window named Shell.

You can change all this to your likings :-)

For IBrowse, as it's a MUI application, so :

Open IBrowse Menu-->Preferences-->MUI
Chose the Windows item on the left,
Check the Control-->Gadgets-->Iconify
Check the Control-->Gadgets-->Snapshot Window position
Hit Save button.

Now, each time you'll open IBrowse it will have two more window gadgets beside the Zoom and Size top right gadgets.

You can now change windows position and sizes and hit the snapshot gadget once to have your preferences permanently saved.

That's all :-)

That goes for any program using MUI.
