Hi

I need to use a concordance software called antconc found in this link : http://www.antlab.sci.waseda.ac.jp/software.html

The problem is it needs X11 to run. I tried downloading the X11 from the link but its not working probably because it is for tiger so my question is where can i download X11 for lion so that i can run this software?

Thank you so much your help is appreciated
 
Xquartz is about 99% developed by Apple engineers under an open source agreement. It's what they used to produce the X11 code included in Lion, albeit the Lion version is older than the one you can download and install yourself from the link provided by chown33

Please take the time to look at the links.

From the first link I posted:
The XQuartz project is an open-source effort to develop a version of the X.org X Window System that runs on Mac OS X. Together with supporting libraries and applications, it forms the X11.app that Apple has shipped with OS X since version 10.5. [emphasis added]
