  I think you're using a hacked up version of xterm from Berkeley.
Berkeley added a couple of nice features to xterm like a title bar.  Note
that it's probably better to have a window manager do this because it
removes redundant efforts in every application, but I can't echo Jim's
endorsement of awm till I get a chance to use the latest version on the
R3 tape.  Earlier versions of awm totally screwed up border high lighting
of xterms when you set the border context width to non-zero and used
inverse video.  There were enough other bugs that I decided to retreat to
uwm (though I dearly miss the ability to key mouse actions off of
title|border contexts).

P.S.  I would have already tested the new version of awm out by now having
    gotten the R3 sources the day after they were released except for the
    fact that I'm trying to get them compiled on an Apollo running SR10.
    If anyone wants a recommendation NOT to buy an Apollo, I'm your man.
