If you put it in ~/.xinitrc, it won't affect systemwide settings will
it? If you do put it in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc, it's more or less certain
that no other workstation will be able to connect to that remote X client.
Better than adding it to /etc/profile - $DISPLAY need be exported only when
you fire up a remote xterm, rather than just ssh / telnet into the machine.
