Starting X on a second monitor - kludge that works

[Earle F. Philhower III]

Done as an extension to the -screen option.  Just tack on an X
and Y position after width and height (witn -geometry format or
just space-delimited) and you're set.

ex: make an 800x600 window and move it to the 2nd monitor
   XWin.exe -screen 0 800 600 1024 0
   XWin.exe -screen 0 800x600+1024+0

You can still specify just a width and height, so no changes to
current scripts needed:
   XWin.exe -screen 0 800 600
   XWin.exe -screen 0 800x600
