6.2.1 Customizing the Execution Window
--------------------------------------

You can customize the DDD execution window and use a different TTY
command.  The command is set by `Edit => Preferences => Helpers =>
Execution Window': 

 -- Resource: termCommand (class TermCommand)
     The command to invoke for the execution window--a TTY emulator
     that shows the input/output of the debugged program.  A Bourne
     shell command to run in the separate TTY is appended to this
     string.  The string `@FONT@' is replaced by the name of the fixed
     width font used by DDD.  A simple value is

          Ddd*termCommand: xterm -fn @FONT@ -e /bin/sh -c
     
   You can also set the terminal type:

 -- Resource: termType (class TermType)
     The terminal type provided by the `termCommand' resource--that is,
     the value of the `TERM' environment variable to be passed to the
     debugged program.  Default: `xterm'.  

   Whether the execution window is active or not, as set by `Program =>
Run in Execution Window', is saved using this resource:

 -- Resource: separateExecWindow (class Separate)
     If `on', the debugged program is executed in a separate execution
     window.  If `off' (default), the debugged program is executed in
     the console window.
