Hi,
2.1.1 looks superb - I love getting to launch X11 from the dock instead of Spotlight!!
I am running idlwave (on emacs) and it creates a new terminal for IDL instead of running IDL from emacs itself. I saw an earlier discussion between Jeremy and John Koren, related to this:
Jeremy, would it be possible to revert launching of xterm back to
xinitrc, where it was in Tiger and is typically in any other X11
system.
No. Because then people would get 'xterm' starting up whenever they
run OpenOffice or any other X application.
--Jeremy
Even w/o the xinitirc, I am getting a 'xterm' while trying to run another application. Any reason why?
A simple question about preferences: If i want a terminal with a scroll bar when X11 starts up, where would go to change it? In Tiger, I had that set in xinitrc - I checked the org.x.X11.plist but did not see an obvious place to change prefs.
Thanks,
Saurav
