I've been wondering why suddenly so many people are so intent on using
xterm. Xterm is really a very primitive application with a virtually
unusable default configuration.
Because it means I can have exactly the same environment on all my
systems.
Terminal has some interesting features but it won't run on any of the
other boxes we have around here. (Two people, 15 computers, 8 operating
systems, not counting various Linux flavors. Yes, this is at home.)
Sure, the default configuration is horrible. That's why I want to
change it. There are enough options that I can set it to be anything I
want.
