I assume you are referring to the xterm window that doesn't have a scroll
bar. I fixed the problem on my Mac by downloading and building rxvt. Google
search if you're interested. If you do build it, remember to
./configure --enable-rxvt-scroll
Then make, sudo make install, and you have a terminal application with a
scroll bar that works. I installed rxvt on my X11 Applications menu.
Nobody ever responded to my March inquiry regarding xterm scroll bars that
was the basically the same as yours. OK, what is the answer? How do you get
xterm scroll bars on a Mac?
