  Sorry if this has already been discussed - I just started reading this
group.

  I'm trying to set up my X environment and one of the things I'd like
to do is set up .Xdefaults so that xterm will start up with a standard
set of options that I like.  So far I've had no luck.  Awm reads
.Xdefaults with no problems.  Is there a bug in the standard X11R2
xterm which prevents it from being able to glom its options from
.Xdefaults?  Thanks for your help.

Casey
