Jim,
I stand corrected. The problems with using xterm is that I found
the printing behavior inconsistent - as i run decTerminalID: 220, the
printing command sometimes is from vt220, sometimes from vt100 and
sometimes from "parts unknown". In addition, there is no way for the user
to control the fonts nor the screen size or colors. Both gnome and kde
terminals have good user controls, but no printing.
