What is wrong with konsole?

Anyway, I use xterm as my default terminal emulator. xterm with
default config is ugly indeed, but it is very customizable. I

I have such entries in my .Xdefaults:

XTerm*background: Snow
XTerm*foreground: Black
XTerm*font: *-fixed-*-*-*-20-*-iso10646-1
XTerm*boldFont: *-fixed-*-*-*-20-*-iso-10646-1
XTerm*allowTcapOps: false
XTerm*altIsNotMeta: true
XTerm*altSendsEscape: true

ekg2*font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-70-iso10646-1
ekg2*background: SaddleBrown
ekg2*foreground: lightgray
! it prevents ekg2 from changing xterm title:
ekg2*allowTitleOps: false

mutt*font: *-fixed-*-*-*-20-*-iso10646-1
mutt*background: black
mutt*foreground: white
mutt*allowTitleOps: false

So I have multiple xterm profiles for different applications. I
start these applications with something like:

xterm -name ekg2 -e ekg2
xterm -name mutt -e mutt

I use obvious.clock() and it shows time only. It shows date when I
move mouse pointer over its wibox.
