My thanks to all for the help. I confess that I have been away from IDL
ever since I posted about my woes. Only now have I had the chance to
resume. I am wondering if a kindly soul might post the exact line for
setting the DISPLAY variable in the tcsh shell?

Here's what is in my .tcshrc file now...

setenv LM_LICENSE_FILE /Applications/rsi/license/license.dat
source /Applications/rsi/idl/bin/idl_setup
setenv IDL_PATH "<IDL_DEFAULT>:+/Users/Shared/code/idl"
setenv IDL_DLM_PATH "<IDL_DEFAULT>:+/Users/Shared/code/idl/idldlm"
alias see='open -a /Applications/SubEthaEdit.app'

I have tried various combinations of

setenv DISPLAY 0:0
setenv DISPLAY :0
setenv sierackiG5:0:0
setenv DISPLAY PLEASE:WORK:THIS:TIME:FOR:PETES:SAKE

And other less polite efforts. All of the fail equally well.

Thanks!

Ben
