I did the following test :
1. launch terminal.app (which automatically launch xquartz through the alias x11='open /Applications/Utilities/XQuartz.app').
2. echo $DISPLAY ---> :0
3. launch nedit. Works well.
4. echo $DISPLAY ---> :0
5. exit nedit, xquartz and terminal.
6. relaunch terminal.app (with xquartz).
7. echo $DISPLAY ---> empty string
8. launch nedit. As expected : can't open display.
9. exit nedit.
10. echo $DISPLAY ---> empty string
11. exit xquartz
12. relaunch xquartz from dock.
13. echo $DISPLAY ---> empty string
14. exit xquartz
15. relaunch xquartz from terminal.
16. echo $DISPLAY ---> empty string
I tried after that to set the variable DISPLAY manually to :0, and it seems to work...
So, a solution could be to set this variable in my bash_profile...
If you have other ideas...
Thanks for your help, !
Cyril
