I messed up the terminology, but I believe you know what I mean.  I don't
want to make windows on the second screen sticky, and I don't want the
workspace to span both screens.  I want to be able to treat the second
screen as a 10th virtual desktop.  The main screen would be a 3x3 grid (#
1-9) and the secondary screen would be #10.

I wish I could, but lisp like languages and I just don't get along.  I
admire the power and flexibility of the language and especially the
people who make them sing and dance, but I am not among them.  Until
that changes I'll just keep (gently) prodding the people who have that
ability.

Thanks
