The X.Org software components’ licenses are discussed on the Please re-install the latest XQuartz X11 release for Leopard after installing a system software update to OS X 10.5.x Leopard.Īn XQuartz installation consists of many individual pieces of software which have various licenses. Because of this, you may experience conflicts after doing a Software Update from Apple. Since the XQuartz X11 package clobbers Apple's X11.app, their software update will clobber the XQuartz X11 package. OS X Software Updates have included some of the work done by the XQuartz project, but for various reasons, Apple cannot ship the latest and greatest version offered by the XQuartz site. Together with supporting libraries and applications, it forms the X11.app that Apple shipped with OS X versions 10.5 through 10.7. If you actually need to be productive, don't bother with this app.The XQuartz project is an open-source effort to develop a version of the X.Org X Window System that runs on macOS. If you want a toy SSH and FTP client that will be used to move one or two. I think the only hope for this app is to be rewritten from scratch. The problems are many, random, impossible to reproduce, and therefore impossible to report. And the crashes, for reasons unknown to me, don't show the macOS crash report dialog that you normally see. The worst part is, the "unknown error" alerts happen entirely randomly, there is no way to reproduce the bug, so it's impossible to report it to the dev. It's incredibly frustrating and rather than aiding me at doing my job, it makes it even more frustrating.
Ocassionally it will randomly give you "unknown error" alerts and you will be BOMBED with them (you really have to dismiss hundreds of them at a time - one by one). It crashes all the time for no apparent reason. A few months ago I started doing heavy SSH and FTP related work, mostly with moving files around in a server. I bought this app many years ago and I used it ocassionally for light FTP tasks.
