the reason I do not use screen it because of the lost of history, strangly when I switch from one screen to another, the screen history (scrollback) get f***ed and I loose my display. I am waiting for a new screen version that would fix this, as I beleive screen is a great piece of work |
Sorry, forgot to tell you that it is in portage as rxvt-unicode. 
EDIT, btw, I highly suggest you to use the latest available one.
| Code: |
# eix rxvt-unicode
[I] x11-terms/rxvt-unicode
Available versions: 5.3 (~)7.0 (~)7.1 (~)7.7-r1 (~)7.7-r2 (~)7.7-r3 (~)7.9 (~)8.0
Installed versions: 8.0(05:45:00 09/11/06)(-iso14755 perl truetype)
Homepage: http://software.schmorp.de/
Description: rxvt clone with XFT and Unicode support

There have been lots of fixes lately, and some features like the perl module for tabs are only available on the latest versions.
PS. Sorry for the offtopic, I think this discussion is a bit out of the original topic but I figured that reup would find this info useful.

strange, wven by using explicite USE, those are not taking into account
| Code: |
USE="tabs xgetdefault" emerge -av =rxvt-unicode-8.0
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild U ] x11-terms/rxvt-unicode-8.0 [5.3] USE="perl%* truetype%* -iso14755% (-tabs%) (-xgetdefault%)" 854 kB
|
what does a % means in front of a USE flag ?

That means that the flag is going to be removed or added (removed in this case). rxvt-unicode-8.0 does not have such USEs, for once installed you will get this:
| Code: |
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild R ] x11-terms/rxvt-unicode-8.0 USE="perl truetype -iso14755" 0 kB
|
Dont care abot the tabs useflag. It was removed, the term itself does not have tabs, it is a perl module (urxvt has perl support built in, which is a big part of its ability to add fancy features). The perl modules will be installed into /usr/lib/urxvt/perl. I must say though, that the tabbed module does not work perfectly yet. For me, it works ok, except for the fact that it does not count the lines ok. That makes the term to count one less line (i suppose the line that shows the tab is no included in the count) and that provoques the last line on the bottom not being visible, cause it is outside the window. Hopefully it will be sorted in the next version. Of course, you need the perl use flag if you want to test any of the perl extensions. |
