[EMBOSS] X11 graphics on OS X

[rpg at mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk]

Emboss 2.7.1 installed from fink.

IThe mail archives hint a problem with Apple's X11, but I have not had
trouble with other X apps using it, and fink actually forces you to
install the X11 SDK before installing EMBOSS, so I'm not convinced there
are missing files.

I get the following error with, e.g. pepinfo:

Graph type [x11]: 
Output file [pepinfo.out]: 
Error in XCreatePixmap: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter).

and I need to ctrl-c to escape.

works fine with .ps and PNG as the output.  

EMBOSS is in /sw/bin/ .  Here's my envs:

        else

        endif
endif
setenv PLPLOT_LIB /sw/lib/
