As for transparentcy i set that in Eterm config file. On my puter it
is in /usr/share/Eterm/themes/Eterm/theme.cfg
And, In the .xinitrc (you can make this file if you don't have one)
i do this :
# Window geometry as Width x Height+X coord+Y coord,
# i.e 100x200+0+100
Eterm -g 100x22+08+20 &
Eterm -g 64x21+08+318 &
Eterm -g 64x21+400+318
have a good one :)
