There indeed is code in libdm for stereo output, but most of the interfaces don’t do anything with it. It looks like mainly the ogl interface does anything with the eye parameter. Mged, however, will generate dual displays slightly displaced, intended for stereo viewing. See src/mged/dozoom.c where it calculates a different view depending on which eye is getting displayed. See src/mged/mged.c where it utilizes dm_get_stereo() to determine how to update the view. I believe it only works with a stereo-capable context such as the OpenGL display manager interface.. Cheers!
