Here's a little more information. While on a Linux system, I opened an xterm window, ssh'd to a system running Cygwin 1.5 on Windows XP, executed "stty onlret", started vim and executed ":!stty" with the result that the stair-stepping is still there. :!stty speed 38400 baud; line = 0; -imaxbel onlret That would suggest that the problem is with vim on Cygwin and not with rxvt. Vim on Linux doesn't do this.
