As I mentioned earlier, it has to do with X11.app inheriting a login
shell environment from ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, or
~/.profile ... which means it does not use ~/.bashrc. Non-login
shells use ~/.bashrc. If you want your ~/.bashrc used in login
shells as well, make sure you source it in your ~/.bash_profile
I'm not using bash, I'm true to tcsh. It works as described: What I
set in ~/.login appears in the environment of the X clients. (The
question stays: Why do I have to set the environment values twice?)
And X11.app obviously knows the value of $HOME; why doesn't it launch
its X clients in $HOME? GNU Emacs, FontForge, xterm – all are in /!
X11.app has PWD=/Users/me. Why do the X clients forget it or set it
to /? They have HOME=/Users/me set.
