[slime-devel] emacs-nt+slime+cygwin+clisp: how to set the DISPLAY variable?

Hello,

I am running emacs +slime (2008-09-28) on windows and clisp on cygwin.

I would like to use gnuplot. If I call gnuplot from clisp which comes with cygwin, it opens a gnuplot window.

But not if I call it from slime. gnuplot states : unable to open display ''. Looking at environment variables that Emacs gets and passes to subprocesses, there is no DISPLAY variable. So it seems that gnuplot did not get a value of DISPLAY.

I guess I could create a windows variable DISPLAY so that emacs inherits it and passes it to its subprocesses (and clisp). But is there a way to do that from within slime?

Thank you,

Mirko
