IBM AIX 5.3 Display
Hi, all! I am new in IBM AIX 5.3.
I tried to activate graphical display when connected to my UNIX server.
1) I downloaded Putty to connect to my UNIX server.
2) Then I downloaded Xming and installed it. After that I installed Xming fonts.
3)Then I downloaded AIX fonts and put them into xming fonts directory.
4) Then I edited xming font-dirs file and file content now is following:
# font-dirs
# comma-separated list of directories to add to the default font path
# defaults are built-ins, misc, TTF, Type1, 75dpi, 100dpi
# also allows entries on individual lines
C:\Program Files\Xming\fonts\dejavu,C:\Program Files\Xming\fonts\cyrillic,C:\Program Files\Xming\fonts\IBMAIX
C:\WINDOWS\Fonts
5) Then I run Putty using option - Enable X11 forwarding (checked the box in Putty)
6) When I run xming and connected to server and tried command: DISPLAY=85.254.xxx.xxx
then use echo $DISPLAY and it says me my ip - 85.254.xxx.xxx.
Then I export DISPLAY and use command xterm and have following error:
" Can't open display: 85.254.xxx.xxx"
If I try to set DISPLAY 85.254.xxx.xxx:0.0 then I have following error:
"Xlib: connection to "85.254.xxx.xxx:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: 85.254.xxx.xxx:0.0"
HOW can I set display and work with it, am I doing something wrong?
PLEASE HELP!
Best regards, Debuger!

ppmtosixel
ppmtosixel(1) General Commands Manual ppmtosixel(1)
NAME
ppmtosixel - convert a portable pixmap into DEC sixel format
SYNOPSIS
ppmtosixel [-raw] [-margin] [ppmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable pixmap as input. Produces sixel commands (SIX) as output. The output is formatted for color printing, e.g. for a DEC
LJ250 color inkjet printer.
If RGB values from the PPM file do not have maxval=100, the RGB values are rescaled. A printer control header and a color assignment table
begin the SIX file. Image data is written in a compressed format by default. A printer control footer ends the image file.
OPTIONS
-raw If specified, each pixel will be explicitly described in the image file. If -raw is not specified, output will default to com-
pressed format in which identical adjacent pixels are replaced by "repeat pixel" commands. A raw file is often an order of magni-
tude larger than a compressed file and prints much slower.
-margin
If -margin is not specified, the image will be start at the left margin (of the window, paper, or whatever). If -margin is speci-
fied, a 1.5 inch left margin will offset the image.
PRINTING
Generally, sixel files must reach the printer unfiltered. Use the lpr -x option or cat filename > /dev/tty0?.
BUGS
Upon rescaling, truncation of the least significant bits of RGB values may result in poor color conversion. If the original PPM maxval was
greater than 100, rescaling also reduces the image depth. While the actual RGB values from the ppm file are more or less retained, the
color palette of the LJ250 may not match the colors on your screen. This seems to be a printer limitation.
