Just a small problem on macs, when I switch from single monitor to dual and visa versa I want the previous state restored. I want it to store the state of the windows and restore as many as it can from the last state... It would be great to keep all my terminals in the same location.


I just started using an external monitor with my mac and I am irritated by the same thing. I've found a crappy semi-solution:

If you're not going to be using the windows you have open on the external monitor you can minimize them before you unplug it. If you open them later when you're plugged in again they will pop up where they were before.


awesome... not a great solution, but this will definitely help. Thanks for the tip.
