A quick-and-dirty way to do it is to set both the pointer and the pointer background to the same color. This gives you a nice, fat I-beam. Just make sure it is a different color than the select color or the pointer will "vanish" when selecting things. I use: xterm*pointerColor: #ff0000 xterm*pointerColorBackground: #ff0000 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
