The option that you are interested in here is WindowMargins.  It
allows you to place the window with specific distances from screen
edges.  Read the documentation carefully, especially with regard to
where the value Automatic should appear in the specification so that
your positioning is independent of the screen that you are using.

Hope this helps!
