due peer pressure i switched to utf8 and was therefore forced to use urxvt...

urxvt works however i miss features like transparency...


sb knows a utf8 compatible console with such features?

thanks in advance...

urxvt can do fake transparency as well as real transparency.

For fake transparency put a
Code:

URxvt*inheritPixmap: true

into your .Xressources.

If you have composite enabled you can have real transparency by starting urxvt with
Code:

urxvt -depth 32

in combination with setting
Code:

URxvt*background:     rgba:dddd/dddd/dddd/dddd

in your .Xressources.

Do you mean with fake transparency or with composite?
