If your script immediatelly exits after printing the output you should prevent xterm from being closed, something like: Exec exec xterm -e sh -c "date; head -1" where "date" is your script. This waits for Enter to be closed. Regards, Mikhael. -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
