Hi Christian,

thanks, I did change all white to default and do not see this problem 
any more.

xterm in Leopard? Do you run it in X11?

I had the problem in 10.4 and its Terminal for a while and changed 
directly from the ibook G4 to the latest MBP.

I now have to fix stuff between G4 and Intel, 32 or 64 bits where 
compilation does not work yet (a conflict between gawk which requires 
libiconv and libiconv which requires gawk, while libiconv is not 
usable)... So I do not know yet whether a new compilation would have 
fixed it...

But for the moment the "default" solution is good enough for me.

Thanks again,
Martin
