[pygtk] Remember window geometry

[saeed]

gtk.Window.get_position()
gtk.Window.move(x, y)


You may manually save position of window on exit in a configuration
file, and restore it when applications starts. As a sample code base:

winPos = None ## later will be (x, y)
try:
  exec(file('my_app.conf').read()) ##overwrite default settings
(including winPos)
except:
  pass
if winPos!=None:
  win.move(*winPos) ## win is a gtk.Window
