: According to a quick review of XopenDisplay and some of the other small
: wrapper functions in nxlib-0.46, yet no remote x-servers are supported,
: only the local :0 server (and, hence, no DISPLAY environment variable be
: supported). Is this correct?
That's basically correct, primarily because nano-X doesn't
support remote connections itself. Adding this capability
between client/server with the same endianness isn't too
much of an issue, the GrOpen() code in nanox/client.c
needs to be changed to use a TCP connection rather than
a UNIX socket.
