The Question
I'm trying to enable X11 forwarding through the PyCharm SSH Terminal which can be executed via
"Tools -> Start SSH session..."
Unfortunately, It seems there is no way of specifying the flags like I would do in my shell for enabling the X11 Forwarding:
ssh -X user@remotehost
Do you know some clever way of achieving this?
Current dirty solution
The only dirty hack I found is to open an external ssh connection with X11 forwarding and than manually update the environment variable DISPLAY.
For example I can run on my external ssh session:
vincenzo@remotehost:$ echo $DISPLAY
localhost:10.0
And than set on my PyCharm terminal:
export DISPLAY=localhost:10.0
or update the DISPLAY variable in the Run/Debug Configuration, if I want to run the program from the GUI.
However, I really don't like this solution of using an external ssh terminal and manually update the DISPLAY variable and I'm sure there's a better way of achieving this!
Any help would be much appreciated.
P.s. Making an alias like:
alias ssh='ssh -X'
in my .bashrc doesn't force PyCharm to enable X11 forwarding.

So I was able to patch up jsch and test this out and it worked great.
Using X11 forwarding
You will need to do the following to use X11 forwarding in PyCharm:
- Install an X Server if you don't already have one. On Windows this might be the VcXsrv project, on Mac OS X the XQuartz project.
- Download or compile the jsch package. See instructions for compilation below.
- Backup jsch-0.1.54.jar in your pycharm's lib folder and replace it with the patched version. Start Pycharm with a remote environment and make sure to remove any instances of the DISPLAY environment variable you might have set in the run/debug configuration.
Compilation
Here is what you need to do on a Mac OS or Linux system with Maven installed.
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/jsch/files/jsch/0.1.54/jsch-0.1.54.zip/download
unzip download
cd jsch-0.1.54
sed -e 's|x11_forwarding=false|x11_forwarding=true|g' -e 's|xforwading=false|xforwading=true|g' -i src/main/java/com/jcraft/jsch/*.java
sed -e 's|<version>0.1.53</version>|<version>0.1.54</version>|g' -i pom.xml
mvn clean package
This will create jsch-0.1.54.jar in target folder.

In parallel, open MobaXTerm and connect while X11 forwarding checkbox is enabled. Now PyCharm will forward the display through MobaXTerm X11 server. This until PyCharm add this 'simple' feature.
Also, set DISPLAY environment variable in PyCharm run configuration like this: DISPLAY=localhost:10.0 (the right hand side should be obtained with the command echo $DISPLAY in the server side)
