I'm not sure how to do this and would love to examine something that already does something similar. What is the proper way to check for X11?

Hi,

My app requires the user to install X11 from the OSX install disks. Is there something I can include in my installer so the user is not required to find their install disks? Can I include X11 in my installer? If yes, how?

Apple makes this available separately from the install discs. You can put in a requirement check that will prevent your software from being installed if X11 is not installed on the system. In your error message, you can redirect the user to Apple's web-page to download the X11 package (http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/x11formacosx.html ). Tell them to install that, then to install your software.
