It would be really nice to have osso-xterm take parameters, so that one could create icons to launch command line only apps directly.

About tip: Instead of entering 'exit' to get back to user from root you can enter ctrl d instead. Slightly quicker. (And ctrl d in the outer shell (the user account shell) will terminate the whole xterm.)

Anyone know where I can get this app? If I use Application Manager it says it's installable, but then says Package not found.
Thanks,
Bill

Then there's the rest:
ctrl w - delete previous word (I use this a lot)
ctrl d (while not at empty prompt) - delete letter under cursor
ctrl a - move to start of line
ctrl e - move to end of line
ctrl f - move one letter forward
and so on.. also known as the 'emacs' commands.

Thanks to 'inz' and Marius Gedminas for this fix...
Also, for those who don't always pay attention (like me :-), I discovered only today while reading inz's blog, that ever since version 0.13.mh18 (jan. 24th) those Control-something shortcuts on the right toolbar have been user-configurable through the "edit" menu. Another minor blessing to be grateful for :-)
