1. start your xterm with -sf as: xterm -sf -fn courier18 -fb courier-bold18 -cr red -fg ivory -bg black -T "SQL*Plus" -e frm30

       -fn sets the font normal
       -fb sets the font bold
       -cr sets the cusor color
       -bg sets the bacground color
       -fg set the forgound(type) color
        -T sets the title
	-e executes the script frm30 

 Script frm30

 #! /bin/csh -f 
 #
 #

 cd /home4t/gfcsdata/sql
 sqlforms30 -c xtermsun:sun
 exit 0

 The -c xtermsun:sun clause is the other part of this  fiasco. I have taken to setting it into an env variable  called $MY_TERM so that the thing can be changed.

 If you use a shell tool the pair looks like this:

 to open the window

 $OPENWINHOME/bin/shelltool -fn Courier-Bold18

 to start sqlforms

 sqlforms30 -c sun:sun
