4Sight configuration

I'v just about managed to do away with the toolchests and the WorkSpace from
my 4Sight display (I like all my window ops on a pop-up menu).  One thing I
can't seem to do is get Icons to automatically go to the corners of the
display.  4Sight seems to have a wired in allowance of space on the left for
toolchests, and space on the right for the "WorkSpace" window.  Has anyone
gotten around this without modifying the system files?  I readily admit to
being a neophyte at writing PostScript, so I may be missing something obvious.

On a related note, does anyone have any recommendations for books or
documentation on "Introductory NeWS/4Sight?"  I've got the books from Adobe,
but NeWS seems to be both more and less than the PostScript in those books.
The SGI manuals seem to deal mostly with programatic interfaces to 4Sight.
