I use -nw when called from Mutt in tmux. Typically that combination is run in an Xfce Terminal instance. > That's odd.

I'm sure they could be disabled but it seems that doing so isn't as simple as in Gnome Terminal where a single checkbox disabled all short cuts except Alt-Space which Xfce still consumed. I may just have to give Xterm a try for this combination and see how I like it. - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."
