Here's some silly questions for you all. I want to determine what the terminal is on login to set up a few things, and if possible on a telnet connection, which host the connection is coming from. Basically: 1. If the connection is a hardwired terminal, I want to invoke screen (just can't get along without it) :) ; 2. If the connection is a network connection, set the DISPLAY variable to point to X display 0 on the originating host; 3. If the connection is a regular pty (usually created by screen), do nothing. TIA! Matt Behrens | matt@zigg.com MST3K #85995 | http://www.zigg.com/
