I'm a new X user and am doing some experimenting with xterm. I would like
to be able to fork/exec an xterm that runs a program in that window, and,
I want to force the xterm's stdin to be from a pipe descriptor that I
dup2'ed before I exec. The problem is that xterm does a getty() and wipes
out my stdin plumbing. How do I accomplish what I want to do?


							Thanks,
