All about Linux: Configuring xterm in Linux - 0 views

  • XTerm*background: whiteXTerm*foreground: blackXTerm*pointerColor: redXTerm*pointerColorBackground: black
  • konsole takes a whooping 8MB and gnome-terminal over 3MB of memory, you can run xterm under 1MB
  • Create a '.Xresources' file in your home directory and enter the values that you want to set. My .Xresources file is as follows:
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • By pressing [Ctrl] key and the middle mouse button, you get a pop-up menu which helps you set/unset a lot of other features of your xterm window like enabling/disabling the scroll bars and so on.

      If you use the pop up menu to customize your settings, I don't think there is a way to save your preferences. I think you need to use a text editor to create the .Xresources file as Ravi describes above.

    My Ubuntu 9.04 installation does not seem to listen to the .Xresources file. I am trying to figure out why.
