I am using a startxwin.sh file modified (I use a copy in
/usr/local/bin/startxwin.sh) as
XWin -unixkill -rootless -emulate3buttons -clipboard &
wmaker &
xsetroot -solid blue
xterm -sb -bg white -fg darkblue -cr red -ms red -bd red -geometry 80x84+532+0 -name center &
xterm -sb -bg white -fg darkblue -cr red -ms red -bd red -geometry 80x84+1033+0 -name right &
xterm -sb -bg white -fg darkblue -cr red -ms red -bd red -geometry 215x88-70+0 -name large
Thanks.
