Re: mysterious disappearing xterms



This sounds like the same behavior I was seeing with Terminal.app.
Your shell is dying on creation, and when the shell goes away, so does
the terminal window.  I can no longer find the article on this, but I
haven't had the problem in a while.  I used to have every other shell
crash, but I changed Terminal.app to directly call /bin/zsh instead of
going through login and I seem to remember that helping.  Look for
something with Terminal.app and [process completed] on google for more
information.
