.kshrc not executing

Hi all,

My original post is at the end but basically since I upgraded from

Solaris 2.1 -> 2.3 my .kshrc gets executed at login but it does not

get executed when any of my xterms start up.

I got 2 responses:

dave@scg8a.scg.hac.com suggests setting a variable in my .profile

                export ENV=$HOME/.kshrc (this was in there already but

                                          thanks Dave)

leon@eatworms.swmed.edu suggested using the "-ls" option to xterm. I changed

my .openwin-init file to include the -ls option to xterm and that worked.

This option to xterm tells the shell that is started in the xterm window

be a login shell. Thios is a good workaround. Thanks Leon!
