Very nice. I don't have a dual-monitor setup to test this at the moment but looking forward to testing it.

A few additional notes as I'm getting closer to testing this and then adding to the site:

Synopsis:
  • Restrict cursor movement between monitors. You can lock the cursor to the current monitor, or make it sticky so that extra effort is required to move it between monitors or the cursor can be completely free to move between monitors.
  • Launch your favourite applications with a few key strokes and to position them at pre-configured positions on any of your monitors. You can also use it to launch your favourite websites and to run any of the functionality provided by the modules in DMT.
  • Take a snapshot of primary monitor and show it on the secondary monitor. Previous snapshots can be viewed, saved to a file or copied to the clipboard.
  • Hotkeys for common operations ... like moving the active application window to the next monitor, to a pre-configured position, minimising all windows on a single monitor only, and rotating the contents of all monitors.
  • Changes the wallpaper at regular intervals and/or at start up. Offers similar support for multiple monitors as to that provided by Dual Wallpaper. Images for wallpaper may come from multiple sources. You can specify a different image on each monitor, spread an image across two or more monitors, or if you have enough monitors, a combination of these.
I edited this down a bit from what's on the website but obviously it's going to get distilled even further for the eventual entry.
