Use other terminal apps with Apple's X11
Rather than modifying xinitrc so X11 launches a terminal, I've modified xinitrc not to launch a terminal. This way you can somewhat do things in reverse by having your terminal program launch X11 instead. After modifying xinitrc, paste the following into your ~/.profile :
This way, any time you open Terminal.app, it sets itself up the X diaplay and makes sure X11 is running. It's a pretty simple solution if you don't mind X11 being active all the time. Additionally, it;s pretty easy to customize that one AppleScript line to suit your preferred terminal.(I apologize if it appears i'm taking credit for that little script snippet; I found it somewhere on macosxhints a while ago, and cant seem to find a reference.) |
