Hello,
I'm working interactively with IDL (4.0.1) in a Xwindows terminal, and
I want to display a plot on an other computer (a Mac that is connected
to the previous Xwindows terminal via internet).
I tried to use the command SETENV, 'DISPLAY=macIPaddress' but the plots
are still displayed at the Xwindows terminal.
Does any one know how to direct the display of an IDL plot to another
terminal?
Thanks
Francisco

It looks to me like you are trying set the DISPLAY environment variable from
within IDL. I have not tried this, but you would definitely have to do it
before IDL tries to make the first X windows call. It would be safer to do it
before entering IDL, i.e.
> setenv DISPLAY macIPaddress:0
