    Brief Description of Problem:
    -----------------------------

Olivier is having problems with his dtterms.  I told him I use dxterms.

Here's what I needed to do in CDE:

1)  Create a file ~/.dt/types/DECterm.dt as follows:
######################################################################
#
#    Common Desktop Environment (CDE)
#
#    Action and DataType Definition File
#
#      Generated by the CreateAction tool
#
#      $Revision: 1.0
#
#      $KEY: 6142
#
######################################################################
#
#    WARNING:
#
#    This file was generated by the CDE CreateAction tool.
#    If this file is modified by some other tool, such as vi,
#    the CreateAction tool will no longer be able to load and
#    update this file.  For this reason, changes to this file
#    should be handled through CreateAction whenever possible.
#
######################################################################

ACTION DECterm
{
     LABEL         DECterm
     TYPE          COMMAND
     EXEC_STRING   /usr/bin/X11/dxterm -ls
     ICON          Fpterm
     WINDOW_TYPE   NO_STDIO
     DESCRIPTION   DEC term
}

2)  The file ~/.dt/sessions/dtwmfp.session needs to point to it.  I'm not sure 
exactly what the format is, but my file contains the following:
