With multiple monitors, I have so far been dragging windows manually around. Is there a way to make a window open on a specific screen in a dual-head setup? (Not to be confused with multiple X server displays.)

Something like: SCREEN=2 firefox or open-in-screen 2 firefox.

If it matters, my environment is KDE using the KWin window manager. KWin window rules can only match some properties like title, but I could not find an environment variable as filter.

The secondary display extends the primary screen:

$ xrandr -q

Question: Downloading specific yeast genes in an automated manner?
Answer: These sequences do not have any standard i.d. The information in Saccharomyces Genome Database is also obsolete (2005) and does not have these identifiers.

These sequences can be found here (in the same site).

Each species has a short name:


ORGANISM        Short Name
S.cerevesiae    Scer
S. bayanus      Sbay
S. paradoxus    Spar
A. gossypii     Agos

.... and so on. 

First letter of genus name in uppercase + first 3 letters of species name in lowercase.

The fasta file (for all ORFs) is:
 www.broadinstitute.org/regev/orthogroups/nt/&lt;Shortname&gt;.fasta

From there you can use grep to retrieve the sequence.

So, if you have saved shortnames and gene names two separate files you can do something like this: 

for shortname in `cat shortname.txt`; do wget -O tmp.fa "http://www.broadinstitute.org/regev/orthogroups/nt/"$shortname.fasta; grep -A 1 -f ids.txt tmp.fa &gt;&gt; $shortname"_Select.fa"; done
