i installed apple's X11, and then fink to get octave. now i'm trying
to customize my xterm window by adding stuff to .Xdefaults and
.Xresources and it's not working. for some reason when i start X11
it's not reading these files. i know the files work by themselves,
b/c i can do a "xrdb -merge .Xresources" manually on the command
line and get the desired results. the default xinitrc file in
/etc/X11/xinit supposedly does just that, as there is an identical
line in there, but for some reason it just doesn't happen. any ideas
as to why the default xinitrc file wouldn't execute?
