I have just upgraded to 10.10 and whilst most things are running OK so far I've noticed a funny quirk with xterm in that when it starts up at first the things I type get displayed with funny lines round them.
(I have had a series of Desktop entries for years corresponding to remote systems I often connect to all of which have xterm in - I have different backgrounds for each to remind me what system I'm talking to).
This is regardless of what font I specify.
If I do any resizing or change the font and then change it back, the problem goes away.
An example follows - maybe I should just switch to Eterm or something?
