I'm currently working an a two headed Sun and would very much like Epoch to create Epoch-screens on my other physical screen. I have a very weak solution right now and do not relish trying to expand it into a robust form. Has someone already done this work? Currently, I strip the root window id out of an xwininfo call and give it to create-screen as 'parent. The problems with this are many. Most notably, Epoch is ignorant of the other colormap (which means I choose black and white as default) and everything else about that 'screen'. Any ideas? If I was in school right now I`d just write it. Here I find it hard to justify the time for something completely unrelated to my work. Hmm, but then I probably wouldn't have a two headed machine at school :) Mike buck@mitra.com
