The man page for xterm indicates that the xterm window will resize automatically in response to the DECCOLM escape sequence if xterm is started with option "-132". Similarly, the xterm window menu offers a choice between automatic resizing and fixed-size operation. On my IRIS, running IRIX 3.2, I cannot get xterm to resize automatically when DECCOLM is sent from a VAX connected by Ethernet running TCP/IP. Does anyone know where the escape sequence is getting lost? Or is this a bug in 3.2 xterm? Thanks in advance. -- Rich -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Squibb Institute for Medical Research -- Bristol-Myers Squibb Company Richard J.

Some X winodw manager functions are not available under the standard 4Sight window manager. PK
