Thanks Shaleh,

I modified dance version 1.3 (version 1.4 seems to be
broke) and it is able to change workspaces on both
displays (randomly).  I will use this and try to write
a small app (perhaps another bbtool?) and post it once
it is working with some type of interface or pipe to
communicate with.

Thanks again...
