This has, I think, already been answered, and the answer can probably
from a careful reading of man pages.
.xinitrc is read by X11, not by apps that use X11.
You can find out what xterm does by reading the man page for it; the
shell that runs in the xterm will do its normal startup thing, which is
described in the shell's man page, and depends, in all likelihood on
how xterm invokes the shell (e.g., whether it invokes the shell as a
login shell). Look for the term 'shell' in the xterm man page.

Justin

When a new xterm is opened from within X11, via the
"Applications->Terminal" menu item, what script, if any, gets run?
I have a .xinitrc that executes properly when X11 is first started,
but if I generate more xterm windows, the environmet (variables set in
my .xinitrc file) is not the same as the one that is opened by my
.xinitrc file.
Thanks in Advance, Mark
