Wow, go figure, it does run in a native window. That is pretty darn cool. Well, so far so good. I've got the keys mapped the way I want them. I like the way Cut/Copy/Paste works. I like that selections are line by line, as opposed to rectangular. Scroll wheel works. So far no problem with full screen apps such as emacs and less.
Yes very cool. I use it all the time. Here's another tip: Instead of wildly long invocation lines use ~/.Xdefaults to specify things that are common and possibly to create term "types" then use rxvt -name... For example, instead of
$ rxvt -fn "Lucida Console-*-15" -sl 500 -backspacekey ^? -deletekey ^? \ > -bg "#0000aaaaffff" -fg Whtie -colorBD Blue -colorUL Red -cursor Red
You can just do rxvt for your default rxvt. If you want different colors (or other things) then you can use rxvt -name hostb or rxvt -name hostc, etc, given the following ~/.XDefaults file. This allows you to keep all your terminal "types" or "schemes" neatly defined in one place.
! Rxvt defaults
! Global Settings *font: "Lucida Console-*-15" *saveLines: 500 *termName: cygwin *scrollBar_right: True *geometry: 80x24 *loginShell: True *backspacekey: ^? *deletekey: ^h
! Default color "scheme" (when no -name is used): Rxvt.background: #0000aaaaffff Rxvt.foreground: White Rxvt.colorBD: Blue Rxvt.colorUL: Red Rxvt.cursorColor: Red
! Color scheme for hostb hostb.background: Slateblue hostb.foreground: White hostb.colorBD: Yellow hostb.colorUL: Red hostb.cursorColor: Yellow
! Color scheme for hostc hostc.background: Black hostc.foreground: White hostc.colorBD: Green hostc.colorUL: Orang hostc.cursorColor: Cyan
