This is actually about getting X11.app to inherit the BASH environment
rather than the "vanilla" OSX environment. If you want to get it to
inherit the tcsh environment, you'd need to change that script to be
something like:
$!/bin/tcsh
source /path/to/something
`dirname $0`/X11.bin ##something to do with $argv maybe... /shrug##`
