You could do this with screen. You can attach the same screen session to multiple windows using the "screen -x" (multi-display) mode and then switch to the screen you want in each display. > Another problem here is finding the right terminal.

You can name screen sessions using "screen -S", so I normally tend to group related windows into the same session and name the session (and the xterm window) appropriately.
