[olug] xterm settings

[Brian Wiese]

alias xterm="xterm -fg yellow -bg black"

in your .bashrc, and set your default shell in /etc/passwd to /bin/bash,
running "chsh" may also work to change your shell

|Anyone using xterm?

|I'm running Slackware 9.1 and I want to set it so when

|on yellow text. 
|
|Right now, I have to type the following to set the
|text up: 
|
|xterm -fg yellow -bg black 
|
|I believe there should be something under ~ called

|setting for xterm.
