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 :)
