I seem to have done something wrong or have misunderstood how to configure Mac OS X 10.4.8 to use DarwinPorts.
Although ~/.profile exists and .../xinit/xinitrc includes "source ~./profile", only the first xterm window opened will have "/opt/ local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:" set in its environment. When I open subsequent xterm windows, I need to explicitly enter the command "source .profile" to include the path to the DarwinPorts X11 applications.
X11.app being an aqua app, it does not read the unix environment. The first xterm is probably considered a login shell and thus reads the environment. You can set every xterm to be login shell with the "-ls" option. Or you can use a window manager that is aware of the environment (any other, I guess) yves
