No.  xhost alone ought to print a list of xhosts, if there is one, and
return to the command prompt.

xhost foo.bar.baz

would add foo.bar.baz to the access list, if that host exists:


/users/shel $ xhost foo.bar.baz
/users/shel $ xhost
access control enabled, only authorized clients can connect
INET:foo.bar.baz
LOCAL:
/users/shel $

and a graceful return to the command line.
