settings (PATH, ecc) in xterm? 
Such changes probably belong in your .cshrc file, rather than your
.login.  The former is sourced by all shells when they start, the latter
only by login shells.  Terminal.app starts login shells, xterm does not

actually, paths(w/recursive defs) should _not_ be in the .cshrc, since the path can overflow from repeated invocations...

(although it can be made to do so by giving it the -ls option)

Personally, I find the distinction between login and non-login shells in
UNIX almost completely pointless.


and that's the reason...
