Just to refresh my memory, I'm looking at the code, and see that titeInhibit applies to each of the controls that would switch between normal/alternate screens. But the older (47) code would clear the screen, unlike the "newer" (1049) code. =20 > > (that's a resource setting, also available as a menu entry) >=20 > the menu "Enable Alternate Screen Switching" seems to do nothing toggled > either way. odd - even if you were using an application that uses the terminfo entry rather than the modified termcap, that should prevent the screen-switching. =20 > could you whack me with the resource name? That's titeInhibit What does "xterm -v" say? (I'm not aware that anyone has patched xterm to disable the feature; I revised it more than ten years ago, though it's been ignored by all of the "xterm emulators"...). --=20 Thomas E.
