You might want to give ssh the "-f" option so it forks into the
background and gives you your terminal back :-) .
Hmm... Doesn't seem to work. I'm doing the following:
ssh -Xfc blowfish user@system command-to-launch-X11-client
I get prompted for the remote password, my xterm prompt comes back but
then nothing happens. 'ps -aux | grep X' shows the ssh command executing
but the screen doesn't appear. Something incompatible with X11
forwarding and background operation? Don't know. Darn. I had hopes there
for a minute.
