The xterm program is the standard terminal emulator for the X Window System. It provides DEC VT102/VT220 and Tektronix 4014 compatible terminals for programs that can't use the window system directly. If the underlying operating system supports terminal resizing capabilities (for example, the SIGWINCH signal in systems derived from 4.3bsd), xterm will use the facilities to notify programs running in the window whenever it is resized.

Changes:
This release improves portability for Mac OS X (imake is no longer needed). It fixes a problem initializing under the StumpWM window manager. The cursor position has been adjusted to compensate for resizing when displaying the alternate screen. Several control sequences have been added to enable/disable menu/resource features.
