You already have it...
a) You have to create an '/usr/lib/X11/Xconsoles' file and put the
name of your display in it. My display here is 'dsndata:0.0', so
i did 'echo dsndata >> /usr/lib/X11/Xconsoles' to create the file
from ksh.
b) Start a hpterm process from your ~/.x11start file with the
'-C' option... See the man page on hpterm for more info...
My ksh startup line in ~/.x11start is:
hpterm -display $DISPLAY -C -iconic -title KSH -geometry 80x24+1+1 $@ &
The only gotcha is that each time you start/kill a hpterm shell
with the -C flag, you get a console message... you'll see...
I did a quick look at the manual page for xterm and it shows
the '-C' tag as well... good luck.
Cheers
