Ok, it is not that I don't want the xterm to launch (I actually want it),
after all it is the only way to know that X11 is running. It's just that I
want it to honor my customizations in ~/.Xresources and if it does the same
for my ~/.bash_profile great.

As I have said repeatedly, any xterm will read your ~/XTerm file when it starts, and it is a subset of the ~/.Xresources file with entries specific to xterms.

Try this, then stop and start X11 with the default xterm.

grep -i xterm ~/.Xresources > ~/XTerm

Where is this documented?

In addition, where is the documentation that describes the variables, their values, etc. that are reported by defaults for X11?


spielzeit:~ mcc$ defaults read org.x.X11 { "NSWindow Frame x11_apps" = "419 209 969 537 0 0 1920 1178 "; "apps_menu" = ( ( Terminal, "xterm -ls -sb -rightbar -g 160x75 &", n ), ( xman, xman, "" ), ( xlogo, xlogo, "" ) ); depth = -1; "done_xinit_check" = 1; "enable_fake_buttons" = 0; "enable_key_equivalents" = 1; "enable_system_beep" = 1; "no_auth" = 0; "nolisten_tcp" = 0; "sync_keymap" = 0; }


X11.app is defined to be started when I login. Out of curiousity, are multiple instances of X when there are multiple users of the system?
