System name: m16-034-21
Type and version: SPARC/Classic 7.7K
Display type: cgthree
What were you trying to do?
execport "xhost" "xhost" "+"+$tohost
What's wrong:
set out = get("xhost") doesn't get the output of xhost...
What should have happened:
It should have gotten the output of xhost; this happened on an IBM
machine: m16-034-2 (so you'll know which kind of machine I'm talking about!);
it does work on other machines...
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
The man page for zwgc does detail this...and my .zwgc.desc works on
other machines...
