Display specification option
An important command line option is -display, which
you can use to specify the display on which you want the
client's output to appear.
You can use this option as an alternative to setting
the $DISPLAY environment variable before starting
the application.
For example, if you want to run the xbiff client,
and display its output on a remote server on a machine
named scooter, you would enter:
xbiff -display scooter:0.0 &
where ``scooter'' is the name of the remote host machine.
