You can set transparency using Eterm, aterm.. and probably a lot more too.. (I only use Eterm)
unless eterm has changed dramatically in 0.9.2 i doubt it has the kind of transparency he's talking about. however, i believe there are certain engines for kde and possibly also gnome that support "real" (fake) transparency. though i'm afraid the kind of transparency that os x does is beyond what xfree can currently render. there was a fellow who wrote an opengl hardware layer hack to xfree... google for 'transluxent' if you're interested.
