Very nice, I use this sort of thing at work, to keep folders we use for work flow in the same place.
Also use a script to do the same for open windows. All in os9,

We are moving over to 10.4 and I needed to do the same there.

Your script helps in one fell sweep to map the icons. Thanks

I have also made one for finder windows.

for work I will combine the two.

Applescript:

property theList : missing value
property targList : {}

tell application "Finder"
   activate
   set i to ""
   if theList is not missing value then
       display dialog "Window positions…" buttons {"Save", "Cancel", "Reapply"} default button 3
   else
       display dialog "Window positions…" buttons {"Cancel", "Save"} default button 2
   end if
   
   if (button returned of result) is "Reapply" then
       repeat with i from 1 to (count (items of targList))
           set the_name to (item i of first item of theList) as string
           if not (exists (some Finder window whose name is the_name)) then
               get targList
               set targ to (item i of targList) as string
               open targ
           end if
       end repeat
       repeat with i from 1 to (count (first item of theList))
           try
               set bounds of window (item i of first item of theList) to (item i of second item of theList)
               
               set current view of window (item i of first item of theList) to (item i of third item of theList)
               
           end try
       end repeat
   else
       set theList to {name, bounds, current view} of Finder windows
       repeat with i from 1 to (count of Finder windows)
           copy target of Finder window i to end of targList
           
       end repeat
   end if
   
end tell
