OK, fine. that worked. As as Alexander Hansen said, it started 3 Xwindows.
You can control this with your .xinitrc script. You want to start a reasonable window manager. Fink has a whole collection of them. Or you can try OroborOSX. They have very different levels of ugliness. The image from the xchat web site uses Apple's X11 and Apple's quartz-wm window manager.
I did try his command for setting the Display environment, but it gave an error message as follows:
iMac:~ sheilaking$ setenv DISPLAY :0 bash: setenv: command not found
2. Set the DISPLAY environment variable in the shell from which you are starting xchat:
export DISPLAY=:0
Tried the export DISPLAY:=0 instead, and that appeared to work.
These are shell dialect differences between tcsh ("setenv") and bash ("export").
