That works on my system.

You can also exec it if you'd rather do that...

mkdir ~/.xinitrc.d echo "exec /usr/X11/bin/twm" > ~/.xinitrc.d/99-twm.sh chmod 755 ~/.xinitrc.d/99-twm.sh

That is not working on my system! XQuartz 2.6.3_rc1 MacOSX 10.6.8 quartz-wm starts up when launching XQuartz with the following: $ pwd /Users/davidray/.xinitrc.d $ ls -al total 8 drwxr-xr-x 3 davidray staff 102 Jun 26 22:22 . drwxr-xr-x+ 69 davidray staff 2346 Jun 26 22:20 .. -rwxr-xr-x 1 davidray staff 64 Jun 26 22:19 99-twm $ cat 99-twm exec /opt/X11/bin/twm $ ls -al ~/.x* /Users/davidray/.xinitrc.d: total 8 drwxr-xr-x 3 davidray staff 102 Jun 26 22:22 . drwxr-xr-x+ 69 davidray staff 2346 Jun 26 22:20 .. -rwxr-xr-x 1 davidray staff 64 Jun 26 22:19 99-twm $ Same results whether I click XQuartz in dock, invoke an X11 app, or run "startx" in the terminal.
