Tangentially related to this is the fact that in slink, I'm going to split xterm into its own package. The bad news for the above solution is that not all X terminal programs use the same command line options for things. I suppose that could be solved with a /usr/bin/xterminal wrapper that parses the options and does neccessary translations, but *yuck*. Nevertheless, it's a good idea, I agree. Get back to me after hamm is released. :) -- G.
