From: Angie Kelic <sly@MIT.EDU>

System name:		tomcat.mit.edu
Type and version:	SPARC/5 9.0.14 (with mkserv)
Display type:		cgsix

Shell:			/bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager:		sawfish

What were you trying to do?
Place zephyrgrams in the lower corners of the screen using the
-0-0 style notation

What's wrong:
The windowmanager isn't clever enough (at least in this theme)
to not place large parts of the zephyrgram off the screen.  It
seems to consider the middle of the window to be the placement
point.

What should have happened:
It shouldn't place zgrams mostly off the lower edge of the screen.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
