RE: doing xwd dumps and needing a second display.
We have a homebrew screen-dump program that's used heavily here [puts out
EPS, though] which handles the problem by offering a window id, a delay
option, and an option to interactively snarf out a section of the root
window.  The additions come essentially for free. I have found that I have
the same need for xwd and will look into duplicating the additions in xwd.
