What would be better would be a way to do what you describe by
clicking on an
icon for the X application in question. OroborOSX provides for this
by using
script files with an extension of '.x11app'. When you click on the
icon for the
file (or an alias to it) then OroborOSX starts up if it isn't already
loaded,
and after that the commands in the script are executed. I think
Apple's X server
badly needs something like this.
This would also be cool. I support this idea too! :)
I use the following applescript, saved as an "Application":
tell application "X11"
activate
end tell
do shell script "export DISPLAY=:0 ; /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm -geometry
80x32+18+32 -fa Monaco -fs 10 -bc -hold -ls -rightbar -rw -sb -sl 1000
