Sorry! This is completely *my* fault! *I* had an option set in blackbox that automatically passed focus to the X client launched next. This setting is now unset and xorg-server does not steal focus. Therefore I've seen these white rectangles! There were on the screen, even whiting-out Quartz windows (from Preview), but a later opened Preview window moved over this terra incognita could hide them. They went away when I quit X11. Their were menus from Blackbox WM's "dock." And they only appeared when I worked in full-screen mode. When switching back from full-screen to normal, Blackbox WM's "dock" disappeared. It did not reappear when I minimalised an Xterm. -- Greetings Pete "A designer knows he has arrived at perfection not when there is no longer anything to add, but when there is no longer anything to take away." – Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

What does X11->About X11 say the version is?

What do you mean it steals focus "from the X client [you] gave it"? An X client only has focus if it's focused in the X server (X11.app) and the X server (X11.app) is focused in OSX.
and passes it to next, then to the over-next, then to ... X client it launches. So a word that I input is divided over a handful of X clients.

I have no idea what you're talking about. I think you may be confused by a focus-follows-mouse focus model (which is not enabled by default in X11.app... you're the one who chose blackbox... if you don't like it, nuke your ~/.xinitrc and use the normal startup). If you want emacs to start every time you run X11.app, then do (just like you would on BSD/Solaris/Linux): cat > ~/.xinitrc <<EOF #!/bin/sh emacs & . /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc EOF
