Hello,
I'm on a Mac  (Mac Catalina 10.15.2, XQuartz 2.7.11).
The problem is using the xterm provided by XQuartz, I no longer have permission to look in my directories :
Wed 16:59 [bjk] ls ~/Documents/
ls: : Operation not permitted
I found a solution recommended online, which is :
1) System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> Privacy -> "Full Disk Access"
2) Unlock then add "Applications/Utilities/XQuartz.app"
3) Restart everything.
However, I still get the same error.
The other "Terminal" program still works, so this is not fatal.
But right now XQuartz is not usable for me.  Suggestions ?

It look like you are either not *who* you think you are or not *where* you think you are.

In both of a fresh Terminal and a fresh xterm, do:

$ pwd
$ id
$ echo $0
$ echo $SHELL
$ echo ~
$ echo $HOME

They should match between the Terminal and xterm environments.

Whichever terminal (lower 't') you use it's the shell that does the work not the terminal.

Hello David,

Unfortunately, both agree.
There are plenty of other ideas though, and I will go through them all.

I wonder if it's anything to do with Sandboxing. It's something I know virtually nothing about.
