Xdefaults setup

What is Xdefaults
Xdefaults is a configuration file that your terminal emulator (and many other X applications) will use for settings, so you don't have to specify long command line args.
Xdefaults is the old name, still used as convention, but it's called Xresources since years and located in the users $HOME as a hidden file. If you dont have this file it's normal. Most people will have to create it before it is there.

I've changed all the settings but they do nothing!
Changes will not be visible until you run
$ xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
And then run xterm or or urxvt or anything again, because the already running instance won't be involved.
How to load those settings on startup?
Add
$ xrdb ~/.Xresources
in your ~/.fluxbox/startup and remember to launch fluxbox with startfluxbox.
Are there more options that are not listed here?
Yes, for a complete listing of what all items your terminal emulator will take reference its man page. Typically you can open its man page and type
/RESOURCES
Hit enter and most of the time this will bring you to where the begining of the optins listed are.
