Re: Reverting to Tiger X11 and other issues

I know this will seem silly, but you can at least work around this by putting a "wrapper script" some place, I suggest "$HOME/bin/ uxterm-blue.sh" or something, that contains:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
exec uxterm -sb -geometry 80x50+0+0 -sl 1000 -bg lightsteelblue3 -e ssh -L8086:localhost:8086 lab1


Make sure it has execute permissions, then you at least have the same functionality through a menu if you like. I'm not saying it's great, but it's something.

Thanks for the suggestion Rich. I had quickly tried such a wrapper but it didn't seem to work but it looks like my test was not done correctly.


As this machine is the one I use daily I have been forced to revert to Tiger's X11 and am happily working in it. I'm sure the new version of X11 will have all of the issues resolved in due time. And as Mark and others pointed out the code will be more reliable going forward.
