As many of you know, whenever you open a new terminal window on Ubuntu it gets located in the upper left part of the screen. The next one is located right below it. The third one is in the upper right, the fourth one in the bottom right part of the screen. I want to add that functionality to another Linux distribution which I'm using now. I just want to know how this is handled in Ubuntu.
Also that doesn't only work with gnome-terminal. It works with any terminal emulator that I've downloaded so far. So I highly think it's not an issue specific to the terminal emulator. Does anyone know how this is handled?
