[DM-MUG] Is there a way to hold opened things in the center of display?

[Victoria L. Herring]

I'm going to try to see if Finder Management Window works == Eudora 
is solved by starting its Esoteric Settings so that's a help.  But i 
see the same issue in Appleworks (new doc) and Word, so assume it is 
a general, across the board issue.  I'll report back on FMW -=- it's 
$10 shareware but if it helps me ergonomicly (sp?) that's great.
