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. Bruce Allen (ballen@dirac.phys.uwm.edu)
