I hadn't then.
But I have now and as a consequence everything is working perfectly.
Thank you.

(Over time I have occasionally had to moderate the syntax of both "XWin" 
and "xterm" command lines to go from working to failing and back again 
to working. This is just another example. On an earlier occasion, the 
recommended use of -nolock failed. I am just happy when the current 
usage works. Thanks again.)
