Using the CI's DISPLAY Variable 

To identify the display to be used, assign its full identification to the
CI variable DISPLAY. Once the DISPLAY variable has been set, applications
run without overriding parameters using the value of that variable to
determine which display to use.  For example:

     :SETVAR DISPLAY "HPMYDISP:0.0" 
     :RUN pizza 

In this example the application pizza displays its output on screen zero
of display zero of node with a name of HPMYDISP.
