xterm in enlightenment

I've decided to try out E17; it seems that running "xterm" generates a X Terminal window with a command prompt and flashing cursor.

Problem is, all the text that I input (and the stuff that's outputted) is invisible (the cursor moves around, but there's nothing shown).

Any advice?

I saw this problem a few weeks back. Try putting this in your ~/.Xdefaults file:

XTerm*background: black
XTerm*foreground: white
