Thanks, but I wonder whether it is intentional to have a fixed filename, as if one has several xterm windows open to the same server and the X connection is lost, only one window will be saved to the file. One can use a wrapper, though, e.g.: #!/bin/sh exec "/usr/bin/`basename "$0"`" -xrm \ "*printFileOnXError: $HOME/private/xterm-saved-`date +%s`-$$" "$@" -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arénaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
