 mac? Ive managed to install the port but i3 cant find any display.

 > Correct, I built `i3status` outside of MacPorts (I need/should create a
 Portfile!) and I built `i3wm` using MacPorts, and
 [https://ports.macports.org/port/rxvt-unicode/ urxvt] as well. I then
 created a file `~/.xinitrc.d/i3-startup.sh` which contains
 >
 > {{{
 > #!/bin/sh
 >
 > cd $HOME
 > export LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
 > export LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
 > export XDG_CONFIG_HOME=$HOME/.config
 >
 > # start the urxvt daemon first
 > /opt/local/bin/urxvtd -q -f -o &
 >
 > # and run i3
 > exec /opt/local/bin/i3
 > }}}
 > Then, run [https://github.com/XQuartz/XQuartz XQuartz] which should use
 `i3wm` as its window manager.
