xterm default home directory

Fritz_Monroe · 08-05-2005, 12:59 PM

I'm running Slackware 10.0 and am definately a newbie. Last night I wanted to install FireFox. I was in XCFE, I brought up an xterm window and installed FireFox successfully. Now when I bring up xterm, it comes up in the ~/firefox-installer directory.

How can I get my default directory in xterm set up to be my home directory?

Thanks in advance.

Open up xterm and cd
when you open it up again you will be in /home/yourname

I thought I tried that, but I might be mistaken. I'll try again when I get home. Thanks.
