Double take. What I use as my standard terminal is gnome-
terminal. What you suggested, and I put into gnome-preferences *as*
*mail* *reader* is xterm.
Unless they interact -- which would startle if not stagger me --
I can tweak away all I want at xterm, and have no effect at all on gnome-
terminal.
Stay tuned.
