Ah ha!  I have just one window displayed.  

I see, the trick is that you have to start two programs, "lyricue" and 
lyricue_server -m (for a window).  lyricue_server can be configured to start 
automatically.

"By default there is a menu item under "Applications" labeled Lyric Server 
Click this to load the server.

It is a good idea to have lyricue_server load automatically when the user logs 
in.

How this is done depends on your desktop environment.

Generally you can edit ~/.xinitrc and add display=:0.1 /usr/bin/lyricue_server 
& to just above where your desktop is loaded (generally just above the last 
line) and then lyricue_server will automatically run on the second screen 
(for when you are using xinerama) when you login."

At least I am getting somewhere! :-)

I think I "get it" now.

Thanks Ben.
