Hello I am trying to run a program I can get it to run on my monitor with
[color=#000000][size=2]shell[/size][/color][color=#666600][size=2].[/size][/color][color=#000000][size=2]run[/size][/color][color=#666600][size=2]([/size][/color][color=#008800][size=2]"monitor"[/size][/color][color=#666600][size=2],[/size][/color][color=#000000][size=2] [/size][/color][color=#008800][size=2]"top"[/size][/color][color=#666600][size=2],[/size][/color][color=#000000][size=2] [/size][/color][color=#008800][size=2]"server"[/size][/color][color=#666600][size=2])[/size][/color]
But I was wondering anyway I could have the startup display the program on computer as well as the monitor? I would like this program in the picture to appear the same on the computer as monitor at the same time. Picture:

(He means "shell.run("monitor","top","server")".)

This is exactly what you want ;p You will simply need to replace "monitor" with "mirror" after you add it to your computer.
I am not sure how it will scale but it should work OK. Make sure you read whole post for info how to use it.
