.tcshrc
Authored by: dewme5 on Oct 26, '01 02:18:01PM

I couldn't get xdarwin to work just right following your tips. modifying the .cshrc file just wasn't doing it right. I would have to "source .cshrc" "rehash" then "startx -- -rootless -fakebuttons" if I closed terminal, i would have to do it everytime. I found what i was looking for on the www.ualberta.ca site. if .tcshrc is present, it will load before .cshrc so, I added

source /sw/bin/init.csh

alias startx startx -- -rootless -fakebuttons

to the bottom of the .tcshrc file.

now.. I can get into it from the terminal by just typing startx, which fixed my problem of having to source and rehash, (also added the alias so i could shortcut into startx)
but.. now I can also launch xdarwin from the applications. somthing that I couldn't do earlier.
