Prevent accidental quits from Apple's X11

Another thing you can do is disable the menu and dock icon completely. Have X11 launch automatically when you log in, and just launch stuff from the command line or some other launching utility.

Prevent accidental quits from Apple's X11

Just make sure Terminal.app is setup properly for X11. I think all you need is the following lines in .bash_profile:

if [ ! $DISPLAY ] ; then
export DISPLAY=:0.0
fi
