The info you need is in Chapter 3 (XVed Resources) of REF XVED.

===================================================================
I had forgotten that I had the following in my .Xdefaults file,
which may be of some use:
XVed*font: 10x20
XVed*labelFontList: -adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal-*-*-120-*-*-p-*-*-*
XVed*buttonFontList: -adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal-*-*-120-*-*-p-*-*-*
XVed*textFontList: -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-*-*-20-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
XVed*defaultFontList: -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-*-*-20-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
XVed*BorderColor: white
XVed*Foreground: gray95
XVed*Background: gray5
XVed*statusForeground: white
XVed*statusBackground: black
! The next one simplifies Xved icons
XVed*UseXVedIcons: false
XVed*geometry: 80x30+10+10
XVed*highlightBackground: white
XVed*highlightForeground: black
The following is a fairly recent addition to XVed:
If you want to limite the maximum number of windows visible
on the screen you can do something like this:
XVed*MaxWindows: 8
you can still have more than that number of Ved files open.
The REF file says:
Whenever a window is to be created for a new or existing file,
and there are already MaxWindows windows, the last file on
vedbufferlist that currently has a window will have its window
destroyed. The new window then replaces it, in the same screen
position.
