[comp.windows.x] X11R4 xterm man page note

lwv27@CAS.BITNET (Larry W. Virden ext. 2487) (06/26/91)

The man page for xterm appears not to document the -cb and +cb
flags, which indicate whether Cut to the beginning of line is turned
on or off.

Also, the man page mentions a -reversevideo flag (see the -r flag
paragraph) , but there appears to only be a -rv flag.

But what does it mean? I couldn't find any difference in xterm behaviour,
neither without the cb flag,
nor	with the -cb flag,
nor	with the +cb flag.
