If you're not using csh, then you can unsetenv for a single command:
% DISPLAY= bk pull
...
And whether you're using csh or not, you can use "env DISPLAY= bk pull".
If you're doing it a lot, an alias or function seems indicated.
Or go into the source and fix it so it doesn't fuck around with
$DISPLAY until it's ready to use it for something.
