I'm not using bash, I'm true to tcsh. It works as described: What I set in ~/.login appears in the environment of the X clients. (The question stays: Why do I have to set the environment values twice?) And X11.app obviously knows the value of $HOME; why doesn't it launch its X clients in $HOME? GNU Emacs, FontForge, xterm – all are in /! X11.app has PWD=/Users/me. Why do the X clients forget it or set it to /? They have HOME=/Users/me set.

I'm observing the same thing. My shells launched in X11 are dropping me in at the root level. My ENV looks correct in those shells. $HOME=/Users/davidray. Dave
