    UsePPosition "on"
         x

    Despite the fact that my syntax seems perfectly correct, I get the errors:

    twm: bad character `U', line 75
    twm: syntax error, line 75
    twm: errors found in "/usr/gramian/hallinan/.twmrc", twm aborting

    If I delete the line, twm works fine.


Hmm, UsePPosition "on" has been in my .twmrc ever since I typed in the code
(see sample-twmrc/jim.twmrc).  Please send your .twmrc to me privately (and by
Tuesday noon if you want a response within the next two weeks).
