[clue-tech] gnome-terminal size and position and color

[David L. Willson]

Thanks, DPerkins and Jed.

Here's what I've done.

1) There's no way to get GTerm to "remember", so I added 
'gnome-terminal --geometry 100x50-0+0'
to my startup programs.  That gets me about half my screen (char-wide x
char-tall), 0 pixels from the right-edge (-0), 0 pixels from the top
(+0).  I still have to re-assert the 'stickiness' every boot, and
remember never to exit this gterm.

2) I am just having to approximate amber and get over my
anal-retentiveness.  I took the analgesic. (It's the amber pill)  :-)
