win32: tile desktop windows

hello c.l.p.,

I'm using:
    Python 2.2 (ActiveState)
    Win2k sp3
    P4 2GHz, 512 RAM
    Matrox p550 (dual head video card)

I run my desktop at 2560 x 1024. When I get
involved manually resizing and moving windows about,
I keep thinking that I should be able to
automate this with a Python script.

Anyone ever seen such a script? I'm looking to
write an API method, unless someone can steer me
some other way.

   = Enum all visible top level windows
   = choose the largest even set (4,6,8)
   = send WM_SIZE to all
   = tile each monitor (dual 17 in. LCD) vertically and/or
           horizontally.

tia,
msp
