Description-en: remote execution of XWindow programs
Xrsh is designed to allow you to start an X client on a remote machine
with the window displayed on the current server's $DISPLAY. It has
many options that give you the ability to propagate environment
variables (including DISPLAY) to the remote system and works with
various types of X server access control including xauth and xhost.
Xrlogin opens a local xterm window and runs rlogin (or optionally telnet) to
connect to a remote machine.
