F-key macro...
Hi everyone,
What I am trying to do is assign a F-key a macro to save a file in vi and display said file in firefox. The details are as follows:

I am using a Win 7 laptop with and ssh program to log into a unix system.

What I am trying to do is figure out how to bring up the firefox browser from the ssh program. The ssh program is a text only program. When I type "firefox3" I get the "Errror: no display specified" I am hoping someone can give me detailed steps. I have read that xterm is not running hence why I am getting the error message. Of course I googled this and really did not get any good responses. I even googled xterm and did a man page on the unix server and it really did not help either.

My thinking is once I get these two things figurede out I can finish up the macro for the F-key.

Thanks.
