SET REMOTE DISPLAY QUICKLY 
If the environment and home directory structure
 are centralized, then build a set of alias tables
 for setting the display for all remote machines
 that may get logged into remotely or administrate
 remotely. In the long run it will save time.
 
 alias 'setwad setenv DISPLAY wad:0'
 alias 'setspot setenv DISPLAY spot:0'
 alias 'settrash setenv DISPLAY trash:0'
