 When you have found a window layout that you like, you might like that persisted between sessions, so that you don't have to place the windows again. We can start rio using multiple ways. When we drawterm in our 9front vps the ''$home/lib/profile'' script is executed. Since the service type (''echo $service'') is of type //cpu// we see that rio is started as ''rio -i riostart'' . Looking at the manual page we see that the -i option takes certain "window" commands that instruct rio in what positions to load the windows and which application to run in them, it also mentions the ''wloc'' command which prints the window layout for the current session. By putting the contents of wloc in the ''$home/bin/rc/riostart'' script then we can have a persistent layout on all rio sessions.  When you have found a window layout that you like, you might like that persisted between sessions, so that you don't have to place the windows again.
