Hello guys,

Is there some command that can close the image window shown by display?

Also is there any command for showing another image in the same window as the previous image with discarding the content of previous image?

Thanks and regards!

xkill works very well!!!!

Combined with xwininfo to find the display window based on title and class and you can close any display window. the display -remote does something like a xwininfo to file a 'remote' window, in which to display a new image.


Better still, when launching the display save the process id (pid) of the display process! I do this in scripts all the time.
