The DUALMON utility is intended for those who have installed both
a primary VGA monitor and a secondary hercules mono monitor.
This driver has been released into the Public Domain. It is basing on
two drivers called COLR-DRV.SYS and MONO-DRV.SYS. Unfortunately I don't
know the original author. In the relating documentation I only found the
address of someone called Alan Barclay, but I could not contact him.
I presume, he moved from there.

The two drivers (in one .SYS file) allow output redirection to the
"other" monitor.
Example to use:
If the VGA is the "current" monitor, you can display the output of DIR
on the mono. monitor as follows:
DIR>MONO
Similarly if the mono. monitor is "current"
DIR>COLOR
will redirect output of DIR to the VGA.
Note that MODE can switch between the two monitors.
Ex:
MODE MONO and MODE CO80
Install DUALMON.SYS via device= lines in CONFIG.SYS.
For example:
device=c:\dualmon.sys
