(just to add to that, ssh by default on remote offsets the display to :10 rather than :1 that local would be using).

The location of where your "display" is is set in the DISPLAY environment variable. You should be able to programmatically do something with that. Another means would be export tty=$(tty|sed '@/dev/@@') ; w | grep $tty | awk '{print $3}'

The configuration files necessary to have all of your settings while editing files in emacs wouldn't exist. | |
