I put: *xterm*appcursordefault: true in ~/.Xresources These should work too: *xterm*vt100*appcursordefault: true *XTerm*vt100*appcursordefault: true *xterm*VT100*appcursordefault: true *XTerm*VT100*appcursordefault: true To make it system-wide, try put an entry in: /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
