I am running STABLE last built on January 28.
I have XFree86-4.1.0_12,1.

If I run 'xterm -class YTerm', I get an xterm whose resource class is
YTerm. If I run 'xterm -e links', I get an xterm running links. But, if I
run 'xterm -class YTerm -e links', I get an xterm whose class is YTerm
without any links, just like the first command. I suspect I'm just
missing something in man xterm, but I don't know what. It would be handy
for frame grouping in pwm if I could start xterm apps under different
resource names. Any pointers greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Greg
