Chat window question

Is it possible to copy chat window setups (or is there a mod) that will allow me to copy multiple window positions from one toon to another?
I use four separate chat windows in specific locations and it's a huge pain to set them all up again when I start a new character.

Thanks

You don't need an addon. Just copy the relevant game settings files from:

World of Warcraft > WTF > Account > 1234567#1 > Server Name > CharacterA

... to the corresponding folder for CharacterB.

Window positions (for all windows, not just chat windows) are saved in the layout-cache.txt file. All other chat settings (window names, which channels are in which windows, channel colors, etc.) are saved in the chat-cache.txt file.
