I deleted gdbtk.ini and then ran Insight.  The behavior I get is
1) open, size and place Register and Locals windows
2) close Insight
3) run Insight again - and get only the source window, open to its original
dimensions

If I open gdbtk.ini (attached) after step 2, it contains for these windows
only:

	[reg]
		highlight_fg=blue
		rows=16
	[locals]

What do the commands in the ini file look like for windows open and sized?  
As a brute-force hack, I could hand edit my ini file for the placement I
want.
