Why not use the StartsOnPage Style? I'm pretty sure it's present in
2.2.x. If not, insert the big spiel about 2.3 betas and the
anticipated 2.4 version here. With StartsOnPage, you get to change the
following to:
>AddToFunc InitFunction ...

>+ "I" Exec /usr/X11R6/bin/netscape -geometry 711x563+877+609
>...
+ "I" Exec /usr/X11R6/bin/netscape -geometry 711x563+77+9
assuming you have:
Style "Netscape" StartsOnPage 0 1 1
Read the man page for further info. There are some gotchas to using
StartsOnPage... some GlobalOpts you might consider setting, some
placement Styles you want to be using.
