Scratch that.. its last modified date was 2013 some time!

I think Peter re-wrote the dialog saving mechanism as part of his new
"eda config" system. Digging around, I see the file in the (more
correct) location:

~/.config/gEDA/geda-user.conf

The geometry is in there under various keys.


You can use the command-line program "gaf" to view and modify config
settings, or just show you where the file is:

SYSTEM:
pcjc2 AT pcjc2lap:~$ gaf config -s
/etc/xdg/xdg-ubuntu/gEDA/geda-system.conf

USER:
pcjc2 AT pcjc2lap:~$ gaf config -u
/home/pcjc2/.config/gEDA/geda-user.conf

PROJCET (aka working dir):
gaf config -p
/home/pcjc2/geda.conf


Hope it helps this time!
