Did you really mean to compare with a space?

then
   exit 0
else
   exit 1
 fi

Wouldn't something like this be faster?
--snip--
#/bin/sh
set -e
[ -n "$DISPLAY" ]
--snip--

Hi Igor,

Thanks for this "un-expected" tip. I posted a query about RunningX on
another list but got no definitive answer.

An application kept on asking for RunningX which unfortunately was not
on my system and I had no idea what it's for or where I can get one...
till now.

Thanks again.

RunningX replacement

2001-04-08 Thread Igor Pruchanskiy

 Today i finally got to the Mutt MIME configuration part.
I spent about 10 minutes trying to compile RunningX.ci, link to which i found on 
mutt.org.
I was getting all kinds of errors and i did not feel like digging through that, so i 
came up with 
my own little RunningX replacement. Just a simple shell script.  

-- snip --
#/bin/sh
if [ "$DISPLAY" = " " ]
   then
  exit 0
   else
  exit 1
fi
-- snip --

and also i found a really usefull mutt feature

set mailcap_path="~/.mutt/mailcap"

Here is my mailcap for mutt:

text/html; links -dump %s ; copiousoutput 
text/plain; more %s; copiousoutput
application/pdf;/usr/local/bin/acroread %s
image/*; xv %s ; text=RunningX

I didn't what to use ~/.mailcap because Netscape would open
all images with xv if i define image/*; xv %s in ~/.mailcap

I hope that would help someone :)
