Thanks. That works in .Xdefaults. I must have been doing something wrong. Even though the colours are right I get strange messages when I open a new xterm (typing "xterm&" or "xterm") though. Like this:

" is not defineding: Color name "black
" to type Booleanonvert string "false
" to type Intot convert string "10
" to type Booleanonvert string "true
" is not definedame "green4
" is not definedame "#00E000

Hi, Here are the settings I've used in .Xdefaults:
XTerm*background: black
XTerm*foreground: orchid3
XTerm*internalBorder: 10

!This is for fixing the backspace not to do ^H but ^?
XTerm.*.backarrowKey: false

!This is for double clicking
XTerm*charClass: 33:48,35:48,37:48,43:48,45-47:48,64:48,95:48,126:48

XTerm*cursorBlink: true
XTerm*cursorColor: green4
XTerm*pointerColor: green4

!The default blue is too dark on my monitor
XTerm*color4: blue1
