Hello,
I'm new in the mac environment and I have a question about how to uninstall a app.
From what I read the most common action for uninstalling apps is just to drag them to the trash.
I have installed XQuartz in order to install winebottler, so I want to know is what I need to do to uninstall XQuartz when I'll want.
In the official website of XQuartz I saw "How to uninstall" tutorial but I didn't understand what I need should do.
Here is the instruction:

Do I need to write this commands in the terminal?
launchctl unload /Library/LaunchAgents/org.macosforge.xquartz.startx.plist
sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macosforge.xquartz.privileged_startx.plist
sudo rm -rf /opt/X11* /Library/Launch*/org.macosforge.xquartz.* /Applications/Utilities/XQuartz.app /etc/*paths.d/*XQuartz
sudo pkgutil --forget org.macosforge.xquartz.pkg
 
Yes, after first performing the earlier bit to restore X11 as the default server.
