Paul:

If you mean outside the Squeak area itself, I don't know of a way. You might look at DisplayScreen and ExternalScreen and their friends and see if they allow it.

If you mean inside the Squeak area, but outside of of Squeak windows, simply open a morph with openInWorld. There are many examples. Try

	ChineseCheckers new openInWorld
of:
	BlobMorph new openInWorld
