bash, with the Sergey's latest patches, seems to have a bug. From the
command line, this works:
% export HOST=`hostname`
% printenv HOST
DULCEA # this is fine, notice all caps
% export DISPLAY=$HOST:0.0
% printenv DISPLAY
DULCEA:0.0
but if I stick these two lines in my .bashrc
export HOST=`hostname`
export DISPLAY=$HOST:0.0
I get this:
% printenv HOST
dulcea # fine, but notice lower case, now
% printenv DISPLAY
:0.0ea # oops!
