Subject: Please precede all environmental variables with EMACS_
Date: Mon, 07 Jan 2008 10:30:23 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4781F12F.4010804@gmail.com> (raw)
Help! Some megalomanic software has stolen the DISPLAY environmental
variable so Emacs/Emacs client will not work.
Could please environmental variables specific to Emacs be changed to
begin with EMACS_ ? For example change DISPLAY to EMACS_DISPLAY.
In my case I have
DISPLAY=localhost:0.0
Emacs does not recognize that value. Should Emacs recognize it or should
Emacs use its own variable, named like EMACS_DISPLAY?
FYI, the value of the environmental variable DISPLAY is used by
Emacs/Emacs client in 23.0.50.1. Emacs does not recognize the value above.
