.initrc question (was
So how can I tell where my .initrc file is? I've searched using the Finder "Find" but no .initrc file turns up - where should it be?
.initrc question (was
It is in your home directory. And it is .xinitrc not .initrc.

Yeah, but if you've installed apple's X11 as the first-ever X11R6 on your machine, you won't have an .xinitrc file in your home directory. Nor any that I can find anywhere else. So how does quartz-wm do it? Am I missing something?
.initrc question (was
Ordinarily, an installation of X11 will check your home directory for a file called ".xinitrc" which it will then execute. Failing to find this, it will use the default version in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc. Apple's X11 does the first, but not the second. If it doesn't find a .xinitrc, it seems that it launches quartz-wm and an xterm, as if your .xinitrc read:
