Its the X Window System, no plural (too confusing with that Other
Operating
System).

Most X progs, support a command-line option of '-geometry NNNxNNN+N+N'
to
control where a program shows up on the screen. This is in the X man page,
IIRC. There is another option called '-iconic', that if supported will
cause a prog to start up as an icon instead of full screen. The program has
to support these options. Again, see 'man X'.
