To be more precise,

after invoking X11 by clicking on the X11 icon in /Applications/Macports
opening xterm or xman does not work.

However, in a normal Terminal, the xterm, xman commands work and moreover launch the X11 application.  When X11 has been launched in this way (not the first one), then is is possible to open a new xterm or xman.


Hello

Probably the environment variable PATH does not include
/opt/X11/bin.  Even if you use the GUI and start applications
from GUI, OSX will eventually use PATH to find executable
*IX-programs.

Normally a logout and login should solve this problem.

PATH is configured by the files:
/etc/paths
/etc/paths.d/*

Check if you have the file /etc/paths.d/40-XQuartz
This file should contain the bin-directory for X11,- on my
machine /opt/X11/bin.
