I've been using rxvt for years as my main terminal and just tried using
minTTY and really prefer not to use it. You see I'm and old man with
poor eye sight. The visual attributes of minTTY aren't the same that I
use with rxvt. The Lucida Console (white foreground on black) has less
contrast as the same font on rxvt. If I make it bold, it approaches
nearly the same brightness as rxvt but a little more blurry. These
featurea don't go with poor vision.
I made the mistake of updating rxvt before and I learned no more
updates, please. Maybe it will help someone what options I use to make
my statements more clearer:
rxvt --backspacekey ^H -sbt 15 -fg white -bg black -geometry +75+80 -sr
-title "TTY$tty$label" -tn ansi -sl 3000 -fn 'Lucida Console-12' -e ksh &
My 2 cents worth, no more.
