aterm again


Hi there!

I asked a question about how to get a borderless, tranparent console. The answer was clear: use aterm.

Now, I did so! I installed verion 0.4.2 .. as this rpm was for my SuSE 8.2 and I used the actual version on my Slack 10.0 ... don't know if it's the same or different verion; it doesn't matter anyway, becaue I cannot make the border go away.

I was told, the sweitch -bl would turn of the border ... ithink it stands for borderless .. anyway. aterm won't start with that switch and I cannot find this or any other matching switch in the --help or in the manpage.

Did they cut the borderless switch from aterm at some verion? Transparancy works like it should...

Using KDE 3.1.1 and 3.3.1 if it matters...

Greetings, Sascha

I don't know about the -bl switch, but googling for “borderless aterm” yields another way to do it:

you can try mrxvt with X resource "borderLess" or command line option -bl
