summary: Boolean settings specified via X resource / -xrm argument can be ignored
class: bug: This is clearly an actual problem we want fixed.
difficulty: fun: Just needs tuits, and not many of them.

When x-settings-ignored was fixed in 0.72, boolean (on/off) settings were overlooked. So, in the same circumstances as that bug, attempts to set boolean settings in the Unix GUI versions of PuTTY tools (pterm/putty/puttytel) via X resource or -xrm argument were ignored. The same workaround as the previous bug could be used.
