I've modified the NeXT Gopher client and server programs to exchange tiff  
files.  On the client, I write the file to /tmp, then simply invoke "open" to  
cause NeXTStep to open the file.  I've tried using Preview and ImageViewer as  
applications for viewing the files ... both do just fine, except that I'd like  
to be able to specify an intial screen position and window size.  Does anyone  
know if either program examines the defaults database for such information?

p.s. here's another instance where it would be really useful if applications  
documented their use of the defaults database.
