I understand your point now. I use MacPorts, so I believe the correct port is quartz-wm. I'll give it a try. Thanks!

Do you mean X11 installed by homebrew or the like, and you're wanting to run X applications under OS X? Still the same advice; the homebrew-x11 page (github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-x11) suggests installing XQuartz via homebrew (which will add the Quartz app to the Applications folder); any other X11 apps installed will use it - though I believe you'll need to launch it first before running the X application(s).
