Something I did last year but didn’t get around to polishing enough for registration yet, but which might help you: [GitHub - goerz/MuxDisplay.jl: A Julia display showing graphics in a multiplexer pane](https://github.com/goerz/MuxDisplay.jl)

See the YouTube video at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvfhw2EI5i8](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvfhw2EI5i8) for an overview, or the [README from PR #2](https://github.com/goerz/MuxDisplay.jl/blob/screencasts/README.md)
