I have a question about mwm directing process id's to the console window.
I have a menu in my .mwmrc file that is set up for remote logins to other
machines on the LAN. Here is a portion of the menu:
Menu RemoteLoginMenu
{
"Remote Logins" f.title
no-label f.separator
"xterm" f.exec "xterm -sb -T XTerm &"
no-label f.separator
"Gem" !"xterm -sb -bg turquoise -fg black -T Gemstone -e rlogin gem &"
"Cray" !"xterm -sb -bg turquoise -fg black -T Cray -e rlogin cray &"jfp@inel.gov (07/18/90)

Here's how I set up the initial xterm in my .xinitrc file:
xterm -j -sb -geometry +1+1 -C
The problem is, whenever I choose one of the Remote Login choices from
the RemoteLoginMenu, I get a job id and process id (i.e., [1] 2464)
displayed in the console window, regardless of what I am doing. I have
used this same menu approach with twm and have no id's displayed in the
console window. Did I miss something in the man page or is there a
workaround? Thanks...
