However, when X11.app first opens, it automatically opens an xterm for me, and that xterm still doesn't know my PATH. How do I teach it?

If I recall, that initial xterm is opened through your .xinitrc. If you don't have an .xinitrc, /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc is used instead. If you want to change the arguments to that initial xterm (or remove it completely, as I did), then you can copy that file to ~/.xinitrc and edit it. Obviously, you will want to make all of your changes before the line 'exec quartz-wm'. Chris
