[ale] Selecting stuff in remote X sessions

[dhurst at kennesaw.edu (Dow Hurst)]

If behind a firewall then use telnet instead or fix ssh to not encrypt for 
that session.  Or, use vim instead.  I agree it is slow but X is high 
bandwidth.  You could look into trying the Low Bandwidth Proxy, lbxproxy of X. 
   I have never seen a howto on setting it up but there may be such.
