Question

Has anyone tried porting Xwindows code to try to fire up an xterm under Mac OSX and then use Exodus to view the session (all on the local Mac machine)?

There are a couple of ways to do this:

- Xvnc (I don't remember where I got the binary; sources can be
found at http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/ but I had problems
getting them to build, which is why i was glad I found a binary
somewhere) and a VNC client ( http://www.geocities.com/tim_senecal/ )
- WeirdX ( http://www.jcraft.com/weirdx/ )

In both cases, you'll need X for Darwin, which is available from
http://www.darwinfo.org/ports.shtml in order to get xterm.
