The best way of doing this is to add a line:
xterm*termName: xterm-color
to ~/.Xdefaults, and then make sure that:
/usr/X11R6/bin/xrdb -merge ${HOME}/.Xdefaults
gets run as part of your session initialization --- ie. add it to your
~/.xsession file if you're running xdm(1) or equivalent, or to
~/.xinitrc if you're using startx(1). This should work under KDE,
Gnome or any old window manager.
Cheers,
Matthew
