[Xquartz-dev] molmol vs Lion

[Jeremy Huddleston]

Maybe something pertaining to the switch to libxcb rather than
xtrans for libX11... ? There's not much to go on here. While I don't
doubt that you are seeing this behavior due to changes in XQuartz or the
libraries, I have many doubts that the issue is a bug in XQuartz or the
libraries. It's much more likely that the bug is in molmol itself if
simply changing stdin fixes the behavior.

Please report this to the molmol developers.

/dev/null fi is no longer tolerated under X11 in 10.7. Only if remove
the use of "< /dev/null" does molmol run normally. Jack
