Or you could modify the actual kdelnk file that launches xterm and change the following line, Exec=xterm -ls to Exec=xterm -fn <fontname> -ls The following would have to be modified for KDE to recognize it /usr/local/kde/applnk/SuSE/workpopup/xterm.kdelnk /usr/local/kde/apps/kappfinder/apps/Utilities/xterm.kdelnk To globally take care of it, you would have to modify the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/XTerm & XTerm-color files which would control all invocations of symply 'xterm' of course command line options will overide those two files. I actually use the following in a shortcut from my desktop xterm -bg black -fg grey100 -fn 7x14 -sl 1000 -vb Anyway, best of luck se> -- S.Toms - tomas@primenet.com - homepage is in the works SuSE Linux v6.2+ - Kernel 2.2.13 You can make it illegal, but you can't make it unpopular. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
