For a while, I tried fiddling with various x-terminal-emulators and getting a decent font; hampering things is that Etch installes UTF by default so I'm en_CA.UTF-8 which means that many emulators mess up line drawing used by, eg. mc and mutt. Since I had real work to do, I just installed xfce4-terminal since I can configure everything from menus. While to install it brings in more libs than rxvt, when running it only uses a bit more and it has tabs that don't add to the memory footprint.
