copy on an other?

I think it is Brown University which has worked on "xmx" which allows
one server to open multiple output-only windows.  I haven't looked at the
stuff yet, I have just heard of it.

Brown sez:


		    X M X    An X Protocol Multiplexor

Version 1.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
OVERVIEW

XMX is an X protocol multiplexor.  It is a standalone utility for displaying
an X Windows session on multiple displays.  XMX takes advantage of the
networked nature of the X Window System by tapping the communication link
between an X client and an X server.  In this way, XMX works with any
X clients and any X servers, without the need to modify either.
