Programmatically placing/deleting icons form desktop

[Patrick Nagel]

Hi Sorin,

I guess you could move around the *.desktop files through a shell script, for 
example. All icons on the desktop are in the /home/your_user/Desktop 
directory.

I don't know how this will affect sorting and positioning though.

Cheers,
Patrick.
