Control which display / monitor new application windows launch in?

[dhempy]

I'm writing my first workflow, which launches two terminal windows.  Problem is, the apps usually (not always) launch on my laptop screen, while I need them to launch on my external monitor.  I’ve searched the Alfred web site and the forum for this, without much luck.

 

I'm running Yosemite, fwiw.

 

Any suggestions?  Is this something you'd control in Alfred?  Terminal?  OSX?

I'm not aware of how to do this programmatically. I think about the closest you could get would be to use the functionality of assigning an app to a Space/Desktop that is built in to OSX. Open the app, right click on it in the Dock and select Options, the select the Display that you want that application to be visible on.

Thanks, David.  I'll take a stab at that in my "spare time"
