Thanks for replying, but neither of these is any help. Scaling is irrelevant, the anim is
already the size I want it to be. And the +Wxnum and +Wynum parameters position the anim within
the window, not the window within the desktop.

What I was after on the Pyhton side of things is how to tell that window to maximize itself. I
can get the pid of the xanim process, but where do I go from there (if anywhere)?
