For the last few OS X releases I've been using the X11 server and client

I downloaded XQuarrtz 2.7.2 and installed it but did something
incorrectly as applications that require an X Window environment complain
that about there being no X Window environment.

Did you logout and log back in as instructed by the installer?

What is the exact message?

I found an cquartz_postindt.sh script but none of the /usr/X11
directories or files that it would remove are removed.

I'm not sure what you mean by this. Do you mean xquartz_postinst.sh within the XQuartz package? It runs automatically when XQuartz finishes installing, and you don't need to run it manually.

I need some assistance. I want to have X Windows server and client
installed on the system and accessible by all accounts on the system.

You need to provide more information about your problem.

Thanks,
Jeremy

PS Try 2.7.3_rc1 as it addresses a couple Mountain Lion issues.
