multi head madness

I have noticed that sometimes my secondary heads have a bit of text identifying
the video card they are connected to, like "ATI Rage128 PRO GL PCI - P/N
113-74403-101" and "Monster Fusion Ver 1.20b4002 Diamond Multimedia Sytstems,
Inc; Video Memory 16MB" This comes in handy, but I don't have a good way of
invoking it. I generally see it as X is starting up, and once the Screens get
used the message is gone.
What would it take to have a CLI tool that would display those strings and leave
them up?
It might also be hand to be able to pass a string to be displayed too, like
"Screen 2"
