I am starting this new thread because of a few more problems I see.
In ~/.xinitrc.d/50-clients.sh I had just 'gkrellm &' which worked
before. Now I have to add the path to the X client, /sw/bin/. PWD in
GNU Emacs is /, but HOME is OK. When I launch uxterm the Programmes
menu it has PWD=$HOME, when I launch it from ~/.xinitrc.d/50-
clients.sh it has PWD=/.
The value of PATH in ~/.xinitrc.d/50-clients.sh is
PATH=/opt/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin
although 'defaults read ~/.MacOSX/environment PATH' gives
/Users/pete/bin:/sw/lib/flex/bin:/sw/lib/freetype219/bin:/sw/lib/xft2/
bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/texlive/2009/bin/universal-darwin:/usr/
bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/sw/sbin:/usr/X11/bin:/sw/
bin:/Developer/Tools
The command "bash -c 'echo $PATH'", hopefully reporting the PATH bash
uses and not what the shell sees which is interpreting this command,
gives:
/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/local/texlive/2010/bin/universal-
darwin:/Users/pete/bin:/sw/lib/flex/bin:/sw/lib/freetype219/bin:/sw/
lib/xft2/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/texlive/2009/bin/universal-
darwin:/usr/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/sw/sbin:/usr/X11/
bin:/sw/bin:/Developer/Tools
which indeed is close to the environment in which GNU Emacs is
running, because it's being launched as
env PATH=/usr/local/texlive/2010/bin/universal-darwin:/Users/pete/
bin:/sw/lib/flex/bin:/sw/lib/freetype219/bin:/sw/lib/xft2/bin:/usr/

The environment set up here is inherited by processes spawned by GNU
Emacs, for example a pdflatex run. But not by tcsh running in *shell*
buffer or running in uxterm.
The *shell* buffer in NS Emacs 24.0.50 /has/ inherited the environment
and PATH setting.
The value of SHELL in ~/.xinitrc.d/50-clients.sh is /bin/tcsh, the
value of X11_PREFS_DOMAIN is org.macports.X11, the script starts with
echo "50-clients.sh"
