Thats the way it is !!

Dont know if my mail has gone through, but stay with twm, the default
thing, and get an option for the xterm into the mousemenu, look for
a file called "system.twmrc", copy this to ~/.twmrc and add two lines, see
below, marked #########################...

#
# $XConsortium: system.twmrc /main/9 1996/10/16 16:14:38 kaleb $
# 
# Default twm configuration file; needs to be kept small to conserve string
# space in systems whose compilers don't handle medium-sized strings.
#
# Sites should tailor this file, providing any extra title buttons, menus, etc.
# that may be appropriate for their environment.  For example, if most of the
# users were accustomed to uwm, the defaults could be set up not to decorate
# any windows and to use meta-keys.
