Miscellaneous notes about using Athena and Artemis
Setting the size and location of the PGPLOT window under X Windows
I finally got fed up with having to move and resize the PGPLOT window every time I start Athena or Artemis. This solution to setting a default size and location should work with any window manager. It certainly works with KDE+Kwin. (Note that Evolution has the most elegant solution to this problem of any window manager I have used. E has a GUI interface for configuring this without having to go through the step below.)
Put this line in your ~/.Xdefaults file:
pgxwin.Win.geometry: 574x511+706+513
adjusting the size and location appropriately for your screen.
To enable this change in the current X session, issue this command at the command line:
xrdb -merge $HOME/.Xdefaults
