Can anyone suggest a good way to tell if the user is running a program from X?
A program I maintain can run in terminal or graphical mode. It currently checks if graphics are available by comparing $TERM to a string included at compile time. That's "xterm" by default, which doesn't work on Debian because of "xterm-debian", and doesn't work in rxvt either. I'd like to remove that check and make it a better one. Is checking for $DISPLAY sufficient? Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3TYD [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Debian packages at ftp://ftp.rising.com.au/pub/hamish.
