I guess you are using the MI/X server. Try a bash script like this:

--- cut --- cut --- cut --- cut --- cut --- cut --- cut --- cut --- 
#!/bin/sh
#
# Starts MI/X server, some clients and twm.
#
/mix_95/xs &
/usr/X11R6.3/bin/xclock -fg black -bg gray -geometry 100x100-0+0 &
/usr/X11R6.3/bin/rxvt -geometry 80x25+0+0 &
/mix_95/twm &
--- cut --- cut --- cut --- cut --- cut --- cut --- cut --- cut --- 

If you want, you can customize twm by replacing the last line with something
like:

/mix_95/twm -f /mix_95/my.twm &
