Hi,
I still have a lot of legacy files from my slackware past, which
do not go well with "the debian way". I use them as long as they
don't cause problems and modify them when I find out that they
have drawbacks.
One such file involved the command:
xterm -cu -geometry 100x39+0+0 -bg cornsilk -sb -sl 500 -ms blue1
-xrm 'xterm*pointerShape: hand2' -title "Hebfont Xterm" -fn
'-etl-fixed-medium-r-normal--24-240-72-72-c-120-iso8859-8' &
I won't explain why, -debian users will guess readily and for
others it is not interesting- it's better to store all the
options in the .Xresources files, and just use xterm from the
debian menu.
Except for the -cu option (according to the xterm man page its
effect is to avoid a bug of xterm), I found all the equivalent
options for the .Xresources file.
In the limited testing I made, despite omitting this option I
don't see the bug mentioned in the man page.
Is the -cu obsolete ? And if not, what option should I invoke in
Xresources ?
Thanks, Avraham
