I'm using the display command to post a picture of several configurations for a machine operator to choose from. The Issue I have is when I display the image the displayed image steals focus from my bash window. The operator then has to re-select the window to answer the prompt. The other issue I have is terminating the display. I had to kill the pid. Is there a more elegant way to do this?
Thanks

pid=`ps -e|grep display|cut -f1 -d" "`
kill -9 $pid
echo $an

xglaresrc
XGLARESRC(1) General Commands Manual XGLARESRC(1)NAME
xglaresrc - dislpay glare sources under X11
SYNOPSIS
xglaresrc [ -n windowname ][ -c r g b ] pictfile [ glarefile ]
DESCRIPTION
Xglaresrc displays the sources located by findglare(1) in the picture pictfile by displaying their average luminance and drawing circles
around them in the image. If pictfile is already being displayed by ximage(1), xglaresrc will raise (or deiconify) this window. If pict-
file is not being displayed, xglaresrc will start ximage(1) in the background automatically. (To quit from ximage(1), you can type 'q' in
its display window.) Usually, pictfile will be the image that was used by findglare(1) to locate glare sources.
If the desired image is being displayed under a different name, perhaps even by a different display program than ximage(1), the -n option
can be used to give an alternative windowname for locating the correct display window, and the -c option can be used to specify a different
line and text color (default 1 0 0). If the inpute glarefile is not given, xglaresrc reads from its standard input.
