right scrollbar on xterm
I'm using exceed on a Windows PC to open a xterm to my SunOs 5.8 system.

Everything works fine except for one thing, I can't have my scrollbar on the right side of the xterm windows.

Here's a copy of my .Xdefaults file:

# xterm
xterm*loginShell: True
xterm*background: black
xterm*foreground: grey
xterm*scrollBar: True
xterm*rightScrollBar: True
xterm*saveLines: 10000
xterm.VT100.geometry: 120x35

"xterm -help" doesnt show any options to put the scrollbar on the right side either.

Any clue ?

Thanks

Aren't sure if the "True" IS CASE SENSITIVE OR NOT.

Nope, I tested with "true" still not working. The other options are working fine with "True". I think its probably the version of xterm that is not supporting the option "rigthScrollBar".

I will search for a replacement. Since I don't have any compilers on my system, can anyboby recommand me a good site where i can get open binaries for my SunOs system ?

I find the site for the binaries in a sticky post.

Thanks
