Hi Solveig Sorry if the answer under what conditions the bug arises wasn't clear enough. For a detailed description how to reproduce it see below. The bug is still unfixed. It also has been confirmed by Thomas Dickey. Therefore I'm going to reopen the bug and remove the "unreproducible" tag.
To reproduce the bug: - Set xterm.vt100.saveLines to e.g. 100 in your X resource file (~/.Xresources or whatever): xterm.vt100.saveLines: 100 - Merge the resource file: xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources - Start an xterm (without options), it should have 100 saved lines. - Start another xtem with option "-sl 200". This xterm should have 200 saved lines, as command line options should override resource settings. But it still only has 100 saved lines, the command line option has no effect.
