All those instructions about copying /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc to your home directory and then modifying it are bogus.

Now I am totally confused. I thought putting a modified copy of .xinitrc at home was standard operating proceedure.


BTW, Just for grins I uncommented the exec wmaker line I had in my home .xinitrc from when I tried it while back (and decided not to use it along with all the other wms installed using Fink) and it was not found. I had to put a /sw/bin/ in front of it. That path is not known anymore to this machine's X11, yet is known to Terminal on this machine. It would be nice to find the definitive word as to how and when the paths are set. I've tried to find and learn them all, but just when I think I understand it, even when backed up by experiments, I run into a wall.
