[Xquartz-dev] Reverting from 2.3.0-rc4 to 2.2.2

[Jeremy Huddleston]

I'd just delete your ~/.xinitrc file and let use the system-wide one  
since it looks like you're not doing anything special.  You can get  
your ~/.Xclients stuff by doing the following:

sudo cat > /usr/X11/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/95-xclients << EOF
if [ -f $HOME/.Xclients ] ; then
	sh $HOME/.Xclients
fi
EOF

I think your problem might be using ~ instead of $HOME ... I forget  
the parsing behind ~, but I remember it doesn't always get substituted  
(like in crontab for example)... it might only get substituted in  
interactive shells.  I never use it when writing scripts.
