my 2.0.41 man page says:
StartIconic/StartNormal
I'd like StartMaximized (but with the arguments, since I always want my
buttonbar with console and pager visible.)
On second thought: why not allow a style element like Start AnyFunction
Start Iconify would be the same as StartIconic.
my first use of this:
Style "viewdraw" start PowerViewStartup
Function PowerViewStartup Maximize 100 94
+ MapWindow 0 1 3 2
+ Desk 0 1
+ GotoPage 3 2
Note: MapWindow is also new: it maps a window to a specific desk (first two
arguments) / page (3rd and 4th argument)
if there is no Start Function or no MapWindow directive in there,
MapWindow 1 0 would be default.
Note: PowerView is a layout program, and it doesn't make any sense to have
any other window on the same page :-) - even a 20" monitor would just
suffice - and I'm hooked on 16" :-(
would smash two birds with one stone :-)

PS: chuck: I know it's rahter late for a change, but could the interfaces
of Desk and GotoPage be unified ?
what we need is a simple way to specify absolute/ relative adressing for
BOTH. (Page too)
I have to look the man page up EVERY time I use the Desk command, which I'd
count as an indicator, that it's not very intuitive (to say the least IMHO).
I'd suggest
sth like
GotoDesk z
GotoDesk +z
GotoDesk -z
and
GotoPage x y
GotoPage +x +y
or have a single command
DeskPage +/-z +/-x +/-y
I think the code would be even shorter and much more general.
Then you'd naturally use the same specification for MapWindow +/-z +/-x +/-y
with default mapping of MapWindow +0 +0 +0
