[Scottish] Sending display to another machine

[Rory Gibson]

The simplest way to route the display back to a UN*X box is simply to use
SSH instead of Telnet- it'll tunnel X by default.
As for a Windows box, I'm not sure - does Cygwin include an X server?
Or you can pay out for Hummingbird Exceed (£££).
