You can usually add extra configure items by creating, in your case /etc/portage/env/x11-terms/xterm containing

EXTRA_ECONF="--enable-blah..."

That seems simple enough.

Putting the patch in /etc/portage/patches/x11-xterms/xterm should do it.

Okay.

I suppose that it will need to be some sort of diff that will automatically get applied?

Do you know what directory the diff needs to be based in?

Where can I read more about this?  -  Sorry for the n00b like questions.

I do appreciate the help.  :-)

I assume removing both my customizations and re-emerging xterm will revert back to Gentoo default.

Both of these features are on by default in EAPI6, the xterm ebuild uses EAPI5 so try it and see.

Fair enough.

I'll give it a try in the next few days and report my findings.

Thank you again Neil.
