I was able to figure this out fine - how do I get "xterm" (from X3.2)
to display the colors, though? I tried all of the options ("+cm +dc")
that I would have thought enabled them, but they don't seem to work.
So then I thought maybe I'd switch to "rxvt", but in "rxvt" the
backsapce key doesn't work right. (I'm mapping backspace and delete
to backspace in my xmodmap.) How do these things get so complex :-)
Later,
Dale
