hello. Thanks for the pointers. The following lines in my .Xresources file fixed things up, mostly. It looks like all is working as I expect, except I can't seem to generate an alt-return key sequence. I just get a bell when I try to do this and the application I'm using doesn't receive the keystroke. However, with that said, this is a huge improvement. -thanks -brian
