?? What is Mach IPC?


What is Mach: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach_(kernel)>
What is IPC: Inter-process communication
What is Mach IPC: Read the first few paragraphs under the heading
"Mach concepts" in the above-mentioned wikipedia page.

More to the point, it's the way launchd communicates with its clients (in this case Xquartz, so that it can be launched on demand instead of having to start it manually).
