I honestly can't recall if this was fixed, but I noticed it again today. In particular I was trying to do a "chmod +x" command and instead I got "chmod x" and when the "+" was pressed the window and font sizes increased. This was an xterm window. I installed aterm to see if it made a difference. It didn't (same response). So I think it's a Leopard/X11 issue, not a terminal problem.

If I open an xterm window and type in a '+' it will change the font size. This is just a shift and the '=' which shouldn't cause anything odd like that. I can't seem to figure out how to type in a '+' without changing the font size.
I haven't upgraded my X11 version yet, so I'm using whatever came with the install DVD not one of the ones Ben has made available for us.
I'm not seeing this with Xquartz-1.2a8 and the updated libX11 I just upgraded to Xquartz-1.2a8 and the updated libX11 and it still is doing this on my machine. I was able to determine that Shift-= increases the font (and window) size while Control-Shift-= reduce the font (and window) size. This still does not solve the tremendously huge problem that I can not type a + into an X11 Xterm window.
