Hrm, well the '-ls' wont do too much (Why do you need it anyway :) Env 
variables 
are preserved into sub-shells so only things like aliases would apply and those 
should be in the .profile/.cshrc file). 
 
As for the tset, Im using the 'aliased' version that comes via the root .cshrc. 
Try changing the line to 'tset vt220' which wont affect the console (see 
previous 
mail) but will give the xterm a kick (xterms are pretty much vt220's anyway...) 
 
Another change you might want to consider is adding a 'bs' to the termcap for 
the xterm/vt220 terminals and rebuilding the termcap file. I cant remember what 
it was that was complaining about it (hack I think :), but that removed a lot 
of the terminal emulation problems too!

Hi,

No, it isn't :) (if it was missing it would be impossible to tell
setvideo to choose this mode!)

Ok, I'll check this, but in my .profile is a `tset' and I am even
using `xterm -ls' to open a new windoe.

Thanks,
Jochen
