 Hummingbird is the company and Exceed is the product. It works
exceedingly well (pun intended). There are a couple ways to get the
remote xterm displaying locally: use the IP address assigned to you
in your DISPLAY variable (i.e. 10.24.35.46:0.0) and another way which
escapes me at the moment. It's something like "@A:0.0" or something. I
think the Exceed documentation covers this.
