Thanks to all who replied. At this point, I seem to have three options:
Option 0:
Start up the X11 server on OSX. In the resulting window:
"ssh -X <host>"
Issue X11 commands. # Note: scrolling will be X11ish.
Option 1:
Start up the X11 server on OSX. In the resulting window:
"ssh -X cfcl"
echo $DISPLAY # prints "localhost:10.0" (or so)
Start up the Terminal on OSX. In the resulting window:
"ssh -X <host>"
"setenv DISPLAY 'localhost:10.0'"
Issue X11 commands.
Option 2:
Start up the X11 server on OSX; kill the resulting window.
Start up the Terminal on OSX. In the resulting window:
"setenv DISPLAY ':0.0'"
"ssh -X <host>"
Issue X11 commands.
I'm using option 2, supplemented by a bit of local configuration
in a start-up file:
setenv DISPLAY ':0.0'
alias <host> ssh -X <host>
-r
