Zusammenfassung:	A computer system aligns windows on a computer screen in a manner that approximates the relative position and size of the windows as they were before being aligned. A preferred method aligns "opposing sides" of all pairs of windows (the nearest parallel sides of each pair of different windows) where such alignment can take place without creating overlaps among any of the windows. The aligned windows are then expanded to fill the bounding window in which they are provided by aligning the sides of the windows with adjacent sides of the bounding window.
