This question concerns using sunview on a two-headed (two monitor)
system.  I am running sunview on both monitors, and using
adjacentscreens so the mouse can switch between them.  I have
a short sunview application that I have written.  This application
writes to stdout (which is the command tool from which the application
was launched).  I wish to start this application from a cmdtool on
monitor A, and have it write its standard output into that cmdtool.
However I would like it to open its base frame window and associated
subwindows on monitor B.  Is there an easy way to do this?  I would
be happy to modify the frame=window_create(NULL,FRAME,...)
call in my code, if that might accomplish what I desire.
