Bug#572928: xterm ignores cursorColor resource when allowSendEvents is on
Package: xterm
Version: 255-1
Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
Starting with xterm 255-1, I noticed that I am no longer getting my
nice blue cursor. Narrowing things down, it seems as though xterm
ignores the cursorColor resource if allowSendEvents is on. Run the
following with 255-1:
xrdb -load /dev/null
xterm -xrm '*cursorColor: green'
See a green cursor.
xterm -xrm '*cursorColor: green' -xrm '*allowSendEvents: on'
See a black cursor.
Previous versions, including 253-1, did not have this problem.
Please let me know if any additional information is required or if I
should dig into the code to try to track it down.
