Hi, I'm a Mac OS X user. I like linux/unix/etc but I'm new at it and it always gives me problems. For example
I've tried adding the line
source /sw/bin/init.sh


to pretty much every single config file in my home directory. it's in .tcshrc, .profile, .xinitrc, etc (i dont even know what these files mean) and I still can't run fink when I type fink into X11 terminal!! I don't understand what's wrong. I'm following the instructions. I know it's reading from .xinitrc because after the source line i have exec quartz-wm or exec icewm and both of those work. but i always have to type /sw/bin/fink or /sw/bin/gimp, etc.

When i type fink or gimp into Terminal.app that works, (gimp complains that it can't open graphics). But if i type fink or gimp into X11 terminal it doesn't work. What do I do? This is frustrating.

Thank you

Cesar
