Comment (by kencu):
if you try to run {{{hexchat}}} you get something like this:
{{{
% hexchat
(hexchat:59962): Gtk-WARNING **: 11:26:45.348: cannot open display:
}}}
This software requires an X11 server to display it's windows and UI. You
can install MacPorts' version like this (recommended):
{{{
% sudo port -v -N install xorg-server
}}}
or install XQuartz from their website and use that instead (don't try to
use both -- nightmare scenario).
then you have to logout and log back in again for the launch scripts to
activate. and then it will (should) work.
