You just seemed so "amazed" by it all.

"Direct" how-to's on what though?

Huh?

Maybe you need to read it rather than scan thru it.

What do you mean by "viewing remote computer"? X is a display protocol,
nothing more.

I don't think I am grasping what you want to do. Doing such is probably
outside the scope of this list however so perhaps we should just drop
it.

What how-to? There is nothing to write a how-to about. You tell X
where you want to display the gui for the app, set up the permission to
do it and that is it. I gave you the how-to for the most part in the
last message here.
> your the first that has said anything.
I guess it all seems pretty mindless to those of us who have been
working with X for as many years rather than getting lulled into the
"single display" world of MS-Windows.

But this is the point, there is nothing to document. The document would
not be much larger than what I gave you. What more do you need to know?

You are welcome. Very.

You just seemed so amazed by it all is all.

You sound like you need to do some reading rather than scanning. Try
reading some books. Start with the simple stuff, work up to the more
complicated stuff. Draw yourself a "learning line" and keep to the
scheduled line. It's so easy to get sidetracked. And the most
important thing is to play and use logic and be resourceful to figure
out what you need to figure out.
Good luck
