Actually the advantages tend to go the other way at this point. The Cygwin non-X rxvt is no longer being actively maintained upstream. rxvt-unicode is being actively maintained both upstream and here in Cygwinton. It looks nicer (fonts appear to get antialising), there's bugfixes (though I've only ever run into one minor bug on the non-X rxvt), and has some Unicode/UTF-8 support if that's important to you.
And, xterm has extremely good unicode support. If unicode support is important to you, then right now xterm provides more support than the cygwin rxvt-unicode. ~Matt -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
