This section is only applicable to the Amiga platform.

Window positioning is controlled by four different options. Every one of
these is used to specify an amount of pixels, either for specification of
size or for specification of position of the desired window.

- -wh<number> specifies the height of the window opened by TV.
- -ww<number> specifies the width of the window opened by TV.
- -ph<number> specifies the offset in pixels from the left-hand side of
              the screen for the window opened by TV.
- -pv<number> specifies the offset in pixels from the top side of the
              screen for the window opened by TV.

Valid values for these options depend on the screen size and on the font
being used. TV requires seven lines of text vertically, and one character
horizontally - else it won't start. This is without taking the border into
account, which itself depends on the operating system.

Two possible error-messages may occur if TV cannot work within the window
requested:  *   one indicating that the window can't be opened;
            *   the other that the font can't be used.
