I inadvertantly deleted a my X11R6 stuff, I was tired and I didn't know what
I was doing.  In any case I reinstalled it and everything but I have a problem
if I try to replace twm with olwm in the xinitrc file.  All I get is an X screen
with no console or anything, so it locks up and Iquit out of it.  When 
I run twm the title bar and menu come up black.  By the way, I'm running the
Spectrum server in 1024x768x8.   But I can't seem to get all 256 colors, and if
I edit the initrc file I get nothing.  Peculiar thing is that if I type 
olwm from a non X screen I should get and error about not opening a display, but
I get can't connect to null screen. But why does twm not come up if I change 
the initrc file

For example,
I changed the line,
exec twm
	to:
exec olwm

I then got a blank X screen with no windows, so I had to reboot.
I replaced

exec olwm 
	with:
exec twm
and it would stop working.  I'm realy confused. Any help is apprecieated
