[LUA] [QUESTION] How to display a program on 2+ monitors at a time

I was wondering how I could display a program I wrote on 2 different monitors in the room simultaneously. Note that the monitors are each about 20 blocks away from the computer that I wish to use to control them. Thanks in advance.

mon1 = peripheral.wrap("left")
mon2 = peripheral.wrap("right")
owrite = term.write
function write2(…)
mon1.write(…)
mon2.write(…)
end
write = write2

Here's a nice monitor sync API, so you could just run sync.addTarget(target) on both of your monitors, where "target" is the object obtained from peripheral.wrap.

However, as far as I know, the monitors have to actually be touching the computer in order for that computer to use them. That is, until dan adds peripheral interaction.

Yes I know that would write the text to the monitors but if I want to use one computer to control two others from a distance. Meaning that the monitors have a computer attached each of them that I want to connect to the "terminal/mainframe" computer that you interact with and whatever you type into the "terminal/mainframe" computer appears on the monitors.
