Hello

I have used Gnu Backgammon for some time on windows machines (many thanks) and 
want to install on my main (mac) computer.

I have installed XQuartz, downloaded from the link provided on the 
GNUBackgammon Site. 

It is this note that has confused me a little:



=== Default X11 Server ===

If this is your first time installing XQuartz, you may wish to logout and log 
back in.  This will update your DISPLAY environment variable to point to 
XQuartz.app rather than X11.app.  If you would prefer to keep using X11.app as 
your default server (you can still launch XQuartz.app manually), you'll want to 
disable /Library/LaunchAgents/org.macosforge.xquartz.startx.plist using 
launchctl(1).



For the sake of simplicity and keeping track of where I am, I would prefer to 
keep X11 as my default server.  I can run launchctl in terminal but don’t know 
the syntax to use to “disable 
/Library/LaunchAgents/org.macosforge.xquartz.startx.plist”, nor how to “launch 
XQuartz.app manually”.  There was some mention of a readme in the Xquartz dmg 
but I can’t find one in my download.


Any help would be much appreciated.  I understand what the plist and Quartz 
are, it is just the necessary steps which I am struggling with.


Otherwise I will just have to use the default settings for now, until I 
understand how the system & syntax works.


Thanks again for GNU Backgammon, I have spent many hours refining my skills 
with it.  I hope you don’t mind me bothering you with this minor problem.



Regards


Faris  Khdair
