use e's remember features. i suggest you launch the terminals once with different names/classes/roles on the cmdline. i don't remember what the option is for urxvt to set that, but for terminology it would be something like: terminology -n myspecialname1 -e htop & terminology -n myothername2 -e iotop & ... etc. then with each terminal that appears alt+right click with mouse for window menu on it (or click the icon in the titlebar) - find window -> remember then go to advanced ... you can ask e to remember lots of things about that window... the first - identifiers is what to remember that window BY. notice window name will be what you set it to be as above. i suggest you use window name AND class (checkbox those). under properties - checkbox WHAT you want to remember - like the virtual desktop, position, size, maybe border style if you go change it etc. etc. and last under options you likely want "start this program on login". you could also create multiple custom .desktop files with custom commands as above and use startup applications to get them started on login as opposed to the remember "start this program on login" way of starting on login. > Danny > > On Dec 27 15, Massimo Maiurana : > > To: enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net > > Date: Sun, 27 Dec 2015 09:33:09 +0100 > > From: Massimo Maiurana <maiur...@gmail.com> > > Subject: Re: [e-users] Start app in different display > > User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101 > > Icedove/38.4.0 > > X-BeenThere: enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net > > > > What examples? > > AKAIK startx runs a Xorg session on a given display, to open several > > displays you would need to run several times startx with different > > display number, but I guess that's not what you want to do. > > > > Are you sure you are thinking about real displays?
