• ox_launch_generic() invokes a control process launch and a server process server on host. The other arguments are switches for protocol family selection, on/off of the X environment, method of process invocation and selection of connection type.
• If host is equal to 0, processes are invoked on the same machine as the Asir is running. In this case UNIX internal protocol is always used.
• If use_unix is equal to 1, UNIX internal protocol is used. If use_unix is equal to 0, Internet protocol is used.
• If use_ssh is equal to 1,`ssh' (Secure Shell) is used to invoke processes. If one does not use `ssh-agent', a password (passphrase) is required. If `sshd' is not running on the target machine, `rsh' is used instead. But it will immediately fail if a password is required.
• If use_x is equal to 1, it is assumed that X environment is available. In such a case server is invoked under `xterm' by using the current DISPLAY variable. If DISPLAY is not set, it is invoked without X. Note that the processes will hang up if DISPLAY is incorrectly set.
• If conn_to_serv is equal to 1, Asir (client) executes bind and listen, and the invoked processes execute connect. If conn_to_serv is equal to 0, Asir (client) the invoked processes execute bind and listen, and the client executes connect.
