9.1 Xinerama

StumpWM will attempt to detect Xinerama heads at startup (and at no other time.) Heads are logically contained by screens. In a dual-monitor Xinerama configuration, there will be one screen with two heads. Non-rectangular layouts are supported (frames will not be created in the ’dead zone’.) And message windows will be displayed on the current head–that is, the head to which the currently focused frame belongs.
