Downloading quotes

[Dave Reed]

Actually I didn't read that close enough - it added it to ~/.profile and 
I think I put the line in ~/.bashrc. I had been using tcsh on 
Soloaris/Linux for the last 13 years but decided to give bash a try on 
OS X. I'm not clear on the difference in bash between .profile and 
.bashrc. I don't have a .xinitrc on my OS X machine. I do on my Linux 
box which I use to start my window manager. 

Unless you want to run a X11 based window manager on OS X, I don't think 
you want a ~/.xinitrc
