    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities

     

    X11 isn't preinstalled by default in OS X Mountain Lion. To install it, open Utilities folder, inside Applications folder, and open X11, so your computer will ask you to download it. If you don't find it, go to this site to install X11 in Mountain Lion > http://xquartz.macosforge.org/landing/

    NOTE.

     

    The App launch and download request take you here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5293

     

    Which then has a link similar to mende1's link  (minus the /landing bit)

    The link available in that Apple support article just redirects to the /landing page, so it's the same website

    I should have been clearer about that, as I knew the site was the same one.
