Hi; So what is the proper way for X to be started?
Do I need to manually create a launch entry like I have for the emacs server? If so, what is the invocation? What is being invoked? xorg-server? Now that the DISPLAY is null, invoking xpdf fails even after an open -a /Applications/MacPorts/X11.app, complaining about the DISPLAY variable setting.
