Message-ID: <8904181355.AA02798@regin.think.com> Date: 18 Apr 89 13:55:20 GMT References: Sender: daemon@bloom-beacon.MIT.EDU Organization: The Internet Lines: 11 This gets the DISPLAY variable correct: setenv XDISPLAY `hostname`:`echo $DISPLAY | sed 's/.*://'` (I use the XDISPLAY variable to pass across an rlogin via some TERM variable munging, but I want my local DISPLAY variable to be unix:0.0). ames >>>>>>>>> | Robert Krawitz 245 First St. bloom-beacon > |think!rlk (postmaster) Cambridge, MA 02142 harvard >>>>>> .
