svn commit: r52111 - head/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x11

Author: sevan
Date: Sun Aug 12 08:39:16 2018
New Revision: 52111
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/doc/52111

Log:
  XFCE comes supplied with an xinitrc script, use that instead.
  It turns out that making ~/.xinitrc & ~/.xsession a shell script with a bang
  path & marked executable is a relic of the past. These files are execed by
  the scripts which call them.
