I'm using urxvt from Fedora and tmux HEAD, but I've never encountered this issue (I started using tmux around 1.3, but tmux 1.1 on CentOS was also lacking this behavior; urxvt 9.05 if Koji[1] is to be believed). What versions of urxvt are you running? Are you using the daemon/client version or the standalone instance (I have experienced no issues with either)? rxvt-unicode-256color-9.10-3.fc15.x86_64 --Ben [1]http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=110663 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Benefiting from Server Virtualization: Beyond Initial Workload Consolidation -- Increasing the use of server virtualization is a top priority.Virtualization can reduce costs, simplify management, and improve application availability and disaster protection.
