For instance, mine looks like:
! /etc/X11/Xresources/xterm ! Uncomment the following lines to make xterm appear much like a virtual ! console, so that ANSI colors will make more sense. XTerm*background: black XTerm*foreground: gray90 ! make the default font size more sensible XTerm*font: 9x15 ! Make the scrollbar visible. XTerm*scrollBar: True ! Make the backspace key generate ^? instead of ^H, per Debian keyboard policy. ! Make the delete key generate ^[[3~ instead of ^?, per Debian keyboard policy. ! Make the home and end keys appear to always be in keypad-application mode. ! Include override for BackSpace because older xterms do not understand the ! backarrowKey resource. *VT100.Translations: #override ~Meta <Key>BackSpace: string("\177")\n\ <Key>Delete: string("\033[3~")\n\ <Key>Home: string("\033OH")\n\ <Key>End: string("\033OF") A A A A A
