Add support for multiple monitors. Add a feature so that when a "Full Screen" window is created, that you can tell it which monitor to create the window on. Add a feature so that the application can call context to get a list of monitors that OPENGL found. It returns them in an ArrayList so that the programmers can select a monitor from the list. JME will take the pos of the monitor from the arraylist to get its handle. So if you have 2 monitors, you will have 2 in the list. So to tell JME which monitor to create the window on it would be 0 or 1. The array position in the list. The thought behind this is the program gets a list of monitors and then they can use that list in their settings for the user to select which monitor to us. Since the ID of the monitor changes between each launch, I went with the position from the arraylist that it returned. So many if user changes the order of the monitors then the program will launch on a different screen. Minor. Added in AppSettings a way to get/set Monitor. Monitor value is used only when creating a Full Screen.
