Hi,
rxvt is a replacement for the Windows command window.
This version fixes some bugs I put into the last version.
- Fixed a bug that caused fixed width fonts to be interpreted as
proportional width. Thanks to Ville Herva for helping find this.
- Rewrote paste code.
Please read /usr/doc

Ah, I've been lurking on the list for ages - but not noticed the
request. Apologies.
Anyway, would it be worth submitting a patch for the functionality, or
is the dev rather closed?

I guess that you could untar everything appropriately,
but you'd need to run the post-install scripts.
Instead of that I installed on one machine and then

It appears that I can workaround the problem by executing:
$ aclocal
$ autoconf
before doing the normal GNU build procedure:
$ confi
OK, that will *mostly* work except for the cdrom drive issue.
