Now, as the root user: make install && make install-ti && mkdir -pv /usr/share/applications && cp -v *.desktop /usr/share/applications/ sed -i ... termcap, printf ... >> terminfo: These commands modify the terminal description so that the Backspace key is expected to send the character with ASCII code 127. This is done for consistency with the Linux console. TERMINFO=/usr/share/terminfo: This ensures that the xterm terminfo files are installed to the system terminfo database. --with-app-defaults=...: Sets the location for the app-defaults directory. make install-ti: This command installs corrected terminfo description files for use with xterm. There are two ways to configure xterm. You can add the X resource definitions to the user's ~/.Xresources file, or add them to the system-wide $XORG_PREFIX/share/X11/app-defaults/Xterm file. In order for xterm to follow the locale settings in the environment, use TrueType fonts, and follow the Linux convention about the code sent by the Backspace key, add the following definitions as the root user: cat >> /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm << "EOF" *VT100*locale: true *VT100*faceName: Monospace *VT100*faceSize: 10 *backarrowKeyIsErase: true *ptyInitialErase: true EOF Installed Programs Installed Libraries Installed Directories koi8rxterm, resize, uxterm, and xterm None None Short Descriptions koi8rxterm is a wrapper script to set up xterm with a KOI8-R locale. koi8rxterm resize prints a shell command for setting the TERM and TERMCAP environment variables to indicate the current size of xterm window. resize uxterm is a wrapper script that modifies the current locale to use UTF-8 and starts xterm with the proper settings. uxterm xterm is a terminal emulator for the X Window System. xterm
