I am trying to plot form a ssh and i could not get the graph like this:

IDL> plot, indgen(100)
% PLOT: Unable to connect to X Windows display: :0.0
% PLOT: Unable to open X Windows display.
Is your DISPLAY environment variable set correctly?
% Execution halted at: $MAIN$
IDL> plot, findgen(100)
% PLOT: Unable to connect to X Windows display: :0.0
% PLOT: Unable to open X Windows display.
Is your DISPLAY environment variable set correctly?
% Execution halted at: $MAIN$
IDL>

Can some please help?
Thanks
Cheers,
Dave
