export Xemacs display

Post by pickle »

Hi all,

I've just installed xemacs on my SuSE 10.1 box & I'm trying to get it to port it's display to my workstation. I've got an X-server running on my workstation & I'm able to port yast2 & emacs just fine, but xemacs refuses to be anything but a command-line/tty program.

I've called the command:

Code: Select all

export DISPLAY=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:0.0
obviously, with XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX being my real IP. Like I said, that seems to work fine for emacs & yast2.


This is the configure command I used to compile it, in case it's relevant:

Code: Select all

./configure --with-widgets=lucid --with-gcc --with-x11=yes --with-png --with-xpm --with-jpeg
Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.
