Here's a hint:
	1) On one cmdtool on monitor A type "env >env.1"
	2) On a different cmdtool on monitor A type "env >env.2"
	3) Type "diff env.1 env.2", this says what differences to ignore.
	4) On a cmdtool on monitor B type "env >env.3"
	5) Type "diff env.1 env.3".

By doing the appropriate 'setenv' on A, the application should use B.
