The variant with /usr/bin/true proposed by Jack is not good; it transforms /Applications/Utilities/X11.app into a no-op.

I discovered that. :( Some hassles getting X11 back.

When I try the other variant I will make sure to copy the X11.app file first. Darn fool I am, executing a Unix command when I have no idea what it does....

Actually, copying X11.app first will not help. All the "defaults write..." command is doing is to change a preferences file used by X11.app. If you got it wrong, you can simply delete that file,


~/Library/Preferences/org.x.X11_launcher.plist

It will be recreated by X11.app on its next run.
