Work around for "Can't open display"


Hi all,

I remember seeing a C program that can read the OS type on
MS platforms. For now, a work around is given below:

Add this to your .bashrc:

export OS="Windows_NT"    <---- if you have NT type.

export OS=""              <---- if you have Win9x type

EW
Enjoy.
