Generally I create a launcher on my desktop that points to a script in my home directory named .xterm.sh the contents of the .xterm.sh file are thus : #!/sbin/sh /usr/openwin/bin/xterm +ah -b 4 -cr yellow -j -ls -ms white +mb -rw -aw -s -sb +si -sk -sl 2048 +t -tn vt100 -vb -wf -T xterm -bw 4 -bg black -bd red -fg green -fn screen & that will produce a classic green font on black background xterm with a scroll bar and red one pixel border and a few other features that I like. I actually did list the fonts that Solaris 10 Update 2 seems to produce and I manually went through piles of them looking for decent fonts to use in xterm. This thing produces a nice looking font : /usr/openwin/bin/xterm +ah -b 4 -cr yellow -j -ls -ms white +mb -rw -aw -s -sb +si -sk -sl 2048 +t -tn vt100 -vb -wf -T xterm -bw 4 -bg black -bd red -fg green -fn -schumacher-clean-medium-r-normal--16-160-75-75-c-80-iso646.1991-irv & This is a little larger with nicely open letters and spaceing : /usr/openwin/bin/xterm +ah -b 4 -cr yellow -j -ls -ms white +mb -rw -aw -s -sb +si -sk -sl 2048 +t -tn vt100 -vb -wf -T xterm -bw 4 -bg black -bd red -fg green -fn -b\&h-lucida\ typewriter-regular-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-1 & Dennis ps: my desktop is totally hosed .. never worked again after the vermillion b50 install and I have no idea where I went wrong.
