	I recently posted asking for help with xinit on an AIX PS2 (X11).

	More info. The AIX X11 diskettes have a shell script file called xinit
	under /X11/bin, also installed on /usr/bin, used to fire up X11.

	With the demos/clients came a xinit.c program. I had xwindows working,
	but when I compiled my xinit program it replaced the xinit script
	that came with the distribution.

	To recover this file I have to re-install, and I have been working
	and customizing for a few days now. I would rather :

	a) Somebody mail me a copy of the original xinit command file/shell
	script. I just don't want to go thru the work of re-installing the
	package and all upgrades just to get a single file.

	b) Somebody tell me what is wrong with xinit.c that gives the error
	"Cannot open /dev/tty to query device id" in AIX. /dev/tty is a file
	with mode crw-rw-rw- .

	Thanks.
