If the environment and home directory structure are centralized, then build a set of alias tables for setting the display for all remote machines that may get logged into remotely or administrate remotely. In the long run it will save time.

 

alias ’setwad setenv DISPLAY wad:0′
alias ’setspot setenv DISPLAY spot:0′
alias ’settrash setenv DISPLAY trash:0′
