If you set it in fluxbox-menu, what happens when you decide to try out (eg.) fvwm or icewm? You'll get the system's defn., not yours. Go read /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm. Here's some of the stuff in my .Xresources which over-ride the system defn's: XTerm*geometry: 90x43 XTerm*SaveLines: 2000 XTerm*VT100*background: black XTerm*VT100*cursorColor: green XTerm*VT100*font: fixed XTerm*VT100*foreground: wheat XTerm*VT100*loginShell: true XTerm*VT100*visualBell: true -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
