Yes, files beginning with a dot aren't normally displayed by the ls
command. You can do "ls -a" to see those files. Other than that, dot
files are like other files, so you can edit .xinitrc with your
favorite editor.

I have installed KDE according to the directions but am stuck with a newbii
problem. I don't see a .xinitrc file in my home directory. Is the dot for a
hidden file? If so, how do I view it? I do have an xinitrc file in my
/etc/X11/xinit directory.

IF you installed by the directions you should end up with a generated
.Xclients file. It goes in your home dir and that's all you need. You
don't have to "fix" anything else up. The doc is fairly clear in
/opt/kde/redhat-doc/installation-guide/*.html
