Re: xterm

You can alter the xterm box at least two ways. 

1. You can create your own executable that will define the xterm. I show
one of these below.

#!/bin/csh -f
/usr/X11R6/bin/xterm  -bg blue -fg white -bd white -fn
-adobe-courier-bold-r-normal--12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-1 -xrm
'xterm*pointerShape: left_ptr' -xrm 'xterm*pointerColor: black' -xrm
'xterm*cursorColor: red'  -sb -g 80x25+0+370  -title Stella &

Most of the items are self-explanatory

2. You can work with .Xdefaults and alter the standard xterm. Again, the
variables are fairly self-explanatory
