John, > How do I change the color and transparency of my xterm window?
For color, use something like: xterm -fg red -bg yellow & You can find the color names in your rgb.txt file (maybe at /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt). You can read the docs with: man xterm Regular "xterm" doesn't support transparency. You can try aterm, rxvt with -ip switch or other apps. > I guess I'm also wondering if there are any resources online which can www.Google.com man pages > tell me basic file names that need to be edited to change the way windows > and apps function and appear on the desktop (positioning, color, etc.) > Are these files application specific?

This mailing list should be fine for mostly blackbox related discussion (and for some infrequent X discussion). Use google to find X and blackbox FAQs. Jeremy C.
