Hi - I am new to the world of X and was wondering if anyone out there can tell
me how to launch an X application on a remote machine, and have the display
show up on my workstation.  Let me provide a few more specifics.  The 
remote machine is a SPARCstation 2, and I have a SPARCstation IPC.  Both are
running the OpenLook Window Manager.  I have rlogin priveldges on the SS2.

Question is: How do I launch, say a texttool, on the SS2 and have the display
show up on my IPC?  I tried setting the display variable to aspen:0.0( I think
this is what I did, it's been a cupla weeks).  I then launched the texttool, and
got a library error.  Couldn't find it or something.  Sorry for the vagueness.

Thanks-in-advance! :-)
