Hi Simon, with this:

if {$geometry == "+0+0"} {
         set x 0
         set y 0
     } else {
         set x [ expr $x % $screenwidth - $::windowframex]
         set y [ expr $y % $screenheight - $::windowframey]
     }

You'll keep the standard behaviour of Pd for all the saved patches, only 
the new ones are forced to be placed to coords 0,0.
