Bug#100737: xrsh -- start XWindow applications on remote machines
Package: wnpp
Severity: RFP
Hi folks,
It would be very nice if somebody could add a package for xrsh to
Debian.
Xrsh can be used to start XWindow applications on remote machines.
The most important advantages over xon are:
xrsh is more clever in setting $DISPLAY
'xrsh -debug' works
better support of X authorization
The home page for xrsh is http://jjd.com/ . Copyright information
