- _X_o_n runs the specified command (default xterm -ls) on the
- remote machine using rsh, remsh, or rcmd. Xon passes the
- DISPLAY, XAUTHORITY and XUSERFILESEARCHPATH environment
- variables to the remote command.
-
- When no command is specified, xon runs 'xterm -ls'. It
- additionally specifies the application name to be 'xterm-
- _r_e_m_o_t_e-_h_o_s_t' and the window title to be '-fIremote-host'.
-
- Xon can only work when the remote host will allow you to log
- in without a password, by having an entry in the .rhosts
- file permitting access.
-
- OOOOPPPPTTTTIIIIOOOONNNNSSSS
- Note that the options follow the remote host name (as they
- do with rlogin).
-
-
- ----aaaacccccccceeeessssssss
- Runs xhost locally to add the remote host to the host
- access list in the X server. This won't work unless
- xhost is given permission to modify the access list.
-
- ----ddddeeeebbbbuuuugggg
- Normally, xon disconnects the remote process from
- stdin, stdout and stderr to eliminate the daemon
- processes which usually connect them across the
- network. Specifying the ----ddddeeeebbbbuuuugggg option leaves them
- connected so that error messages from the remote
- execution are sent back to the originating host.
-
- ----nnnnaaaammmmeeee wwwwiiiinnnnddddoooowwww----nnnnaaaammmmeeee
- This specifies a different application name and window
- title for the default command (xterm).
-
- ----nnnnoooollllssss
- Normally xon passes the -ls option to the remote xterm;
- this option suspends that behaviour.
-
- ----ssssccccrrrreeeeeeeennnn ssssccccrrrreeeeeeeennnn----nnnnoooo
- This changes the screen number of the DISPLAY variable
- passed to the remote command.

-
- By default, xon simply uses rsh/remsh/rcmd to connect
- to the remote machine using the same user name as on
- the local machine. This option cause xon to specify an
- alternative user name. This will not work unless you
- have authorization to access the remote account, by
- placing an appropriate entry in the remote users
- .rhosts file.
-
- BBBBUUUUGGGGSSSS
- Xon can get easily confused when the remote-host, user-name
- or various environment variable values contain white space.
-
- Xon has no way to send the appropriate X authorization
- information to the remote host.
