Hmm I was mistaken. I'd set my initial 'app_to_run' to xclipboard - and it wasn't getting the right fonts. I guess this initial app is started before the fonts are established?
Anyway, the fix was to write a shell script that called xclipboard with -xrm arguments to set the fonts explicitly. Begin forwarded message: Date: 16 February 2008 06:54:26 GMT Subject: Re: Cmd-q gets through
Thanks for that. A tip to others removing their .xinitrc is to run /usr/X11/bin/font_cache.sh before removing or renaming their .xinitrc. First time it can take some time and presumably finishes too late for the server to start up and notice its work. So it can appear that the new 'standard' xinitrc isn't working.

It's done in /usr/X11/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc ... so can either delete ~/.xinitrc if you want... if you do want a custom xinitrc, you'll have to do it there still.

in my .xinitrc?
Congrats on the new job...
