macOS – Listing Homebrew Installed XQuartz on OS X El Capitan

homebrewmacos

I installed XQuartz in OS X El Captain using the following command:

brew install Caskroom/cask/xquartz

After completion, brew list does not show XQuartz. Am I doing something wrong here?

No - you shouldn't expect to see a cask when you type brew list - instead use brew cask list to check for XQuartz and other cask-only installs.
