issues with the gnucash port

[zoarre.37258548 at bloglines.com]

i thought i had followed the instructions at the website. my ~/.profile:

#
# Your previous .profile  (if any) is saved as .profile.dpsaved
# Setting
the path for DarwinPorts.
export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH


test -r /sw/bin/init.sh && . /sw/bin/init.sh

export DISPLAY=:0
export
EDITOR=emacs

my /etc/x11/xinit/xinitrc:

#!/bin/sh
# $Id: xinitrc,v
1.1.1.1 2005/02/24 22:35:39 akosut Exp $

userresources=$HOME/.Xresources

usermodmap=$HOME/.Xmodmap
sysresources=/etc/X11/xinit/.Xresources
sysmodmap=/etc/X11/xinit/.Xmodmap


# needed for X11 appst
source ~/.profile

# merge in defaults and keymaps


...

it appears my .bashrc was not deleted, just empty. now that i've
deleted it, "open-x11 gnucash" works from the terminal. i still can't run
it from the x11 menu.

almost there. :)

if using open-x11 works from
butler, i probably won't care about getting it to work from the x11 menu.
