 ok, I will go through these possibilities.
 For now, the grep command gives this output:
 {{{
 /Users/chicco/.zprofile:# MacPorts Installer addition on
 2020-11-15_at_16:10:30: adding an appropriate DISPLAY variable for use
 with MacPorts.
 /Users/chicco/.zprofile:export DISPLAY=:0
 /Users/chicco/.zprofile:# Finished adapting your DISPLAY environment
 variable for use with MacPorts.

 }}}
 is it normal?
