Hi Tony,

        From Exceed 6.1 and up, we support multiple displays.

This can be done through the dos command line with the following syntax:
exceed.exe -d <display#>
             -m <passive|query|indirect|broadcast>
             -h <hostname>
             -w <multiple|single>
             -f <Xconfig CFG file>

        You may bring up two Exceed X servers with two different display numbers
while one in single mode and one in multiple window mode. You may also make
use of xsession as well.

        Hope this helps.

Regards,

Joyce
