I am a newbie to X-windows, I want to learn enough to control X-applications on remote machines (on my lan) for starters.
You basic target then is running an X11 server (eg XQuartz) on your Mac, and
connecting to the remote machine, making your server available for display
purposes. The usual way to do that is:
ssh -Y the-remote-machine
The X man pages are not like all man pages. If anyone of you know about some useful resources for getting the big picture, then I'd be very grateful.
I really feel I need this before I get down to detail with XQuartz on mac os x, which I like.
Try these:

Come back with specific questions.
