[Free Framers] With Apologies to RJ - just can't quite feel the love or embrace this FM9 interface

[Art Campbell]

When you have a file open, on the upper right corner of the screen by the
min/max/close icons, don't you have a pull-down menu? Probably says Default?

If you do, just set up your workspace the way you want it, pull down the
menu and select Save Workspace....
