I have my prompt string set to control codes that make it print in boldface, like so: setenv enter_standout "^[[1m" # the ^[ is really an ESC setenv exit_standout "^[[m" alias setprompt set prompt = \ \"\$\{enter_standout\}\$\{cwd:t\}\>\$\{exit_standout\} \" alias cd 'cd \!*; setprompt' When I start up a new xterm, this doesn't work. I have to select the "default" menu item from the xterm "font" menu first. Anyone got a fix? Or is there any way to make xterm automatically execute this menu item when it starts up? The only font-related resource that I have which affects xterm is "*font: *-courier-medium-r-*-12-*". The font doesn't seem to matter. -- Jamie

The XTerm resource file may have boldFont set by default. Put: XTerm*boldFont: in your .Xdefaults to nullify this. -- +=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+ | Phil Meyer phil@arco.com Work:(214) 754-6805 | +=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
