Re: How do I get xterm setup on MGT

[Ryan McDougall <NQG24419 nifty com>]

Hello Srivathsa, despite the use of the word GNOME in the title of the
app, MGT isn't at all related to GNOME except that it uses some
libraries. I suspect that no here will have heard of it. Have you tried
asking the author directly?

Good luck with your search!

Cheers,
Ryan
