Trying to find a way of writing a script to launch multiple terminal or console windows on solaris 9. I used to be able to do this using cmdtool on older versions of solaris and it was even possible to configure the size and screen position of the window and the title.

Cheers.

dtterm (for cde)

see man dtterm for setting colors / geometry etc..
eg:
dtterm -geometry 100

If you set up your environment as you like and log out, your last session setup should be saved in any case?
