bug with Amaya standalone on MacOsX when using an external display

Hello,

Usually, I'm using my powerbook laptop to work with Amaya.

Yesterday, I found a nice 19' external display that I plugged into my  
mac. I could work with two screens. I had a lot of room to play with.  
So I launched Amaya and worked with it on the new screen. Then, I  
decided to switch off the external
display because my mac was getting hot (it's an old one). I  
redetected the displays (in order for the mac to know that there is  
now only one display, the laptop one) and everything went fine.

Today, I did not plug the external display and when I launched Amaya,  
the windows did not appear on my laptop screen. I thought that it  
might be because yesterday I plugged the external display and I was  
right. I replugged the external display, moved my windows back to the  
laptop display, then mirrored the two displays (in order to change  
the Amaya display preferences) and now it is OK, when I open a new  
window, it appears on my laptop screen.

I was lucky because the external display was still on my desk.  
Otherwise, I would probably have to delete the Amaya preferences file...
