Could someone tell me where I can find the ``Xterm Control Sequences''
document that the Xterm man page talks about ? If you can mail it to me,
please let me know (do not mail, I don't want 20 or 30 coppies ;->) and I
will respond and ask you to send me a copy.

There is no Xterm Control Sequences document for X11. This question has been asked about a hundred times and answered as many. 8-) It has been promised that "as soon as there is time" it will be worked on, but I imagine with R4 taking up everyone's time it may be a while before it appears. If anyone has time they might be good enough to take the one from X10 and update it for X11 (using the Source, Luke). _____________________________________ Brian V.

And until they do, eliminating references to the Xterm Control Sequences document will head off requests for it at the pass.

Folks who have long since relieved themselves of X10 can find that
starting point in expo.lcs.mit.edu:contrib/Control.doc.Z.david@ics.COM (David B. Lewis) (08/22/89)

Two documents which I have found useful and which seem to match well the X11
xterm (but probably were based on the X10 "Xterm Control Sequences"
document) are the appendix D to the OPENLOOK documentation from ATT
and the appendix D to the 'Using X on Sony NEWS' handbook distributed
with that hardware.
