I have tried many ways but could not find any documentation on this on the
web site or in list archives, etc.
I am using startxwin.bat to launch cygwin xfree86.
There is a problem using xterm unless I use the twm main menu to set the
Xresource:
XTerm*deleteIsDEL: true
I would like to have cygwin read this config at startup rather than having
to manually set it every time.
I tried adding the above resource setting to:
$HOME/.Xresources
- that file doesn't seem to get read though
Then I found some discussion where people referred to a different location
for Xresources:
$HOME/.config/Xresources
- that file is not being read either.
I have also tried putting this setting in the file:
$HOME/.twmrc
- this file is being read by twm just fine, but the twm menu doesn't
reflect the resource value, if it is being read at all.
I would appreciate any help on how Cygwin XFree86, XTerm, twm read set
resources and what config files are used.
It seems that perhaps there are differences depending on if you start with
startxwin.bat or with .xinitrc.
I would really like to stick with startxwin.bat if there is a way to get
this working.
Thanks.
