1. decide which monitor you want to be the primary one (that one will get
the DV menu, allow small windows, etc) and set up DV as if you had
only that display. I have my VGA as primary.
2. for each program you want to run on the secondary display, do one of the
following:
a. start it via a batch file with MODE [MONO or CO80]
b. set "writes directly to screen" to Y and "initial mode" to a mode
on the secondary monitor (7 if mono, 2/3/extended if VGA)
