The behavior is defined in the Eterm theme you're using. On my potato box the default theme is defined in /usr/share/Eterm/themes/Eterm/MAIN. You'll want a line that reads "term_name xterm" for Eterm to identify as an xterm. HTH -- -Duane -DNAware SoftLabs OVER the underpass! UNDER the overpass! Around the FUTURE and BEYOND REPAIR!!
