Aterm(howto change colors of the text..?)
 
Ok, i got my background and all of the other things done, no i only need to change the color of the text i type, and i have no freaking clue howto do that :p, Ohyeah, i would be really happy if anyone could tell me where is Xresource file or whatever it is called, i tried to find it but i had no luck :7

'aterm -fg color'
'locate Xresources' or maybe you're thinking of .Xdefaults?

Aterm*scrollBar: false
Aterm*loginShell: true
Aterm*transparent: true
Aterm*tintingType: true
Aterm*tinting: #a07040
Aterm*shading: 35
Aterm*title: Terminal
Aterm*iconName: Terminal
Aterm*font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-14-*-*-*-c-*-iso8859-15
Aterm*geometry: 120x40

~/.Xdefaults
If you don't already have that hidden file, you can just create one with the settings you have in your post.

Something I noticed about aterm and Xdefaults that I found kind of annoying:
If you have your settings in Xdefaults, and try to add or change one or more of these settings in a command line argument (e.g. aterm -bg gray), it will drop all settings and revert to a default aterm...at least it does this on my system.
Does it do this when you do just "aterm" with no options?
