Does /sw/bin/startkde exist? If it is a script, what commands does it
execute? Do all of those executables exist? Is there a /tmp/kde.log? What
does it contain?
By the way, all editors aside, the cat program is rather useful for these
types of script creations:
KevsG5:~ kevinsimpson$ cat > ~/.xinitrc
#!/bin/sh
/sw/bin/init.sh
export KDEWM=kwin
/sw/bin/startkde >/tmp/kde.log 2>&1' >~/.xinitrc
Ctrl-D
(That last is the control-key and the 'd' key. It tells cat you are
finished.)
My ~/.xinitrc ends with `exec /usr/X11R6/bin/quartz-wm'
Doesn't X11 drop off the end of its start file and exit if the window
manager is not execed or started with the background command? May be that
is what startkde does.

I think I did pretty well , considering I started out with nothing but a
