Come to think of it, that's what happens if you're running under X. The library would figure out that an X server is being used, and tell X which grid is primary. X then uses that grid as input to a compositing operation that puts it on the real primary buffer together with the rest of the windows. Unless of course it's full-screened, in which case X just tells the kernel that the application's grid is the primary. Lourens
