Running 2.4.5 on Solaris. I use $DISPLAY as part of a personalized FIFO name (for FvwmCommandS). After a restart, scripts that invoke "FvwmCommand -f <FIFO>" tend to stop working. Turns out, $DISPLAY often (but not always) changes from ":0.<n>" on startup to "unix:0.<n>" on a restart. Any ideas why this might be happening?
$HOSTDISPLAY appears reliable, but the man page prefers $DISPLAY (as do I) for better performance on local connections. (Besides, some scripts that invoke FvwmCommand -f <FIFO> don't have $HOSTDISPLAY.) Gregg Dameron -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
