[Xastir] Copying Xastir Configuration

[Max Harper]

I had copied the file using 
"sudo scp pi at 192.168.1.210:/home/pi/.xastir/config/xastir.cnf /home/pi/.xastir/config"
-rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 15064 Dec 22 21:08 xastir.cnf    original
-rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 15064 Mar 31 02:56 xastir.cnf    copy
 
I only know of three ways to start a program on the RasPi and I tried all three using xastir -v 4095 2>&1 | less
 
1. From the command prompt Before starting the GUI
    When trying this I get lots of lines that start with "Code #" and at the end....
    LANG 1141
    Error: Can't open display:
 
    I was expecting that since Xastir is a graphical program.
 
2. Using LXTerminal within the GUI
    When I try this I get the same lines starting with "Code #"
    Couldn't open the file for reading: /home/pi/.xastir/config/tactical_calls.log
    XReadBitmapFile() failed: Bitmap not found? /usr/local/share xastir/symbols/2x2.xbm
 
3. Using the RUN prompt within the GUI
    When using this the RUN window just closes with no errors
 
All this was done using the same image of the OS, the same .deb install file and logging in with the same User and Password and running on the same hardware. I wish I had made a copy of the file before it was overwritten by the copy.
