Can someone give a clear explanation of exactly what files are read
and executed as
(1) Apple's terminal program opens a new window
(2) Apple's X11 xterm program opens a new window
The reason I ask is that for the former, I get a path with /usr/bin
before /usr/local/bin
while with the latter it /usr/local/bin comes before /usr/bin.
Try adding the "-ls" option to your xterm command - this ensures it is
a full login shell (so it will 'run' your .cshrc/.login etc.),
otherwise it inherits env.vars from the X11.app environment (which will
probably not be set up the way you want, unless you fiddle with various
other files).
Bye!
Adrian
