There is an application which I found a few years ago called "wscrawl",
the date I have on the source is 6/15/90.  It allows multiple X displays
to share the same "canvas" and communicate via that.

If this is the sort of thing you are after, email Brian Wilson
(brianw@cv.hp.com) - remembering that's a 2 year old address!

Hope that helps,
matt.
