/usr/bin/xinit is a binary file. It is an executable program, not a
file you should be editing. You need to restore it from a backup, or
re-install the package it is a part of in your OS. Most linux distros
should let you re-install all of Xorg pretty easily.

Perhaps the file you meant to edit was ".xinit" in your home folder.
This is a text file that tells startx what to run for an X session. As
a rule of thumb, you should never edit any files in /usr/bin, /bin, or
any other "bin" directory, because they all all binaries that are not
meant to be edited.
