An easy option when opening from Terminal.app is to use "open-x11", e.g: open-x11 gnumeric That'll open X11 and then gnumeric. There are also third-party tools like XDroplets, which will generate a Mac OS X app that runs X11 (or XDarwin for people who have that) and opens the relevant app. -- Alexander K.
