Bug Description

Binary package hint: xorg

   I really like it and it works great most of the time. But I can not add it to more than one bar cause it just give me error messages and doesn't add it. I have a 2 monitor Setup and one of the big flaws of Mac and 2 monitor set ups is that both the dock and the menu bar can only be on one screen at a time. And when you have more than one monitor it is very frustrating to have to have windows open on both screens but still have to go back to the main screen for the menu bar and dock. That is the beauty of because you can have panels and configure them all you want. But this applet still has the same short coming as the Mac iteration of it. I know this is not a popular applet, but I really like it and would love to see a fix for this.

    Thank you and God Bless,
      Daniel Clem
