Just about ready to pull the last remaining hairs on my head. All I
want is a black background with light text in my xterms. The only

~/.fluxbox/menu.
my .Xresources:
xterm*background: rgb:00/12/18
xterm*foreground: whitesmoke
XTerm*faceName: Bitstream Vera Sans Mono
XTerm*faceSize: 10

Thank you David and Uli for your merciful responses. And thanks to all
of you blfs-hardcores for your merciful non-responses. :-)
I whined about reading man pages all morning and not being able to solve
my situation. This is a prime example of RTFB. From Chapter 25 of "The
Book"
In order to load your resources, the *xrdb* program must be called
with the appropriate parameters. Typically, the first time resources
are loaded, you use:
xrdb -load <filename>
To add resources to X's database in memory, use:
xrdb -merge <filename>
The *xrdb* instruction is usually placed in ~/.xinitrc or ~/.xsession.
To get more information, see the *xrdb* man page.
You may ban me from the list. Didn't read the most obvious source!
