Re: X terminal recommendations (was Re: Mailing list unusually inactive?)



Hi Dan.

I'm enjoying your list.  I'm not sure why you note that xterm cannot
config the colors, and maybe I misunderstand, but I've set xterm colors
via xrdb.  In fact, I use xrdb to change the colors on both xterm and
rxvt to match the "Linux console color palette" (especially rxvt with
its horrid default color scheme):

For the record, I use Gnome Terminal almost exclusively.  I use xterm
with an amateur radio logging program as xterm doesn't reserve various
key combinations for its own use as Gnome Terminal does that the program
uses.

Horses for courses.
