In ~/.xinitrc (or in the scripts inside ~/.xinitrc.d/, which is the currently recommended replacement for ~/.xinitrc), you get an environment inherited directly from /usr/X11/bin/startx as started by launchd.
This is a well-know fact. Therefore I have created ~/.MacOSX/ environment.plist.
This is a minimalist environment that does not take into account *any* shell startup scripts, and not even ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist.
Why? The previous version in MacPorts worked OK, it inherited $PATH and I could use AUCTeX. Carbon Emacsen or the Cocoa variant Emacs.app of GNU Emacs 23.0.90 all inherit the correct environment and are useful applications. Is X11.app no Mac OS X application? -- Greetings Pete The future will be much better tomorrow. – George W. Bush
