I have not done this with cygwin-x before, but I do it with my sun solaris.
Create .Xdefaults at home directory if does not already exists. google or man xterm should tell you more. Enter/append lines similar to these: xterm*scrollBar: true xterm*saveLines: 4000 xterm*cursorColor: Red xterm*pointerColor: Blue xterm*borderColor: Red -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Philip H.

In M$ Windows, I can edit the properties of a console window and thus create a scrollback history. However, the xterms in Cygwin have no scrollbar. How does one activate the scrollbar and adjust the length of scrollback history? - Phil -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/ -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
