I am not sure if this make sense: there are terminal options more suitable for mutt and other for general purpose. I am wondering which terminal options are more suitable to work with mutt.
For example, in my case I am moving to urxvt. I would say that, for exemple, I do not need: * simulated reverse video * scrolling * transparent window background * many perl extensions except tabbed terminals I have ended with this command: urxvt -g 100x44+0+0 -rv -j -ss -tr -pe -default,tabbed,-matcher,-selection-popup,-option-popup,-searchable-scrollback,-readline -fn '-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-15-140-75-*-c-*-iso10646-1' -e mutt -F /home/joanet/.mutt/Comptes/joanet I am wondering if anybody is using different settings. Also, I start urxvt from a script with the above options, but it would be more elegant to start mutt directly from the working terminal instead of opening a new one, specially if I want to use different instances of mutt in each tab window. Are you using special terminal definitions to work with mutt? Where do you define those options? Finally, I am wondering how to deal with keyboard conflicts between terminals and mutt. For example, I have found that C-s (a macro for spam in my mutt) conflicts with some keybindings in urxvt (not in konsole). Therefore, some mutt configuration working in a terminal may not work in another terminal. Is there any way of disabling terminal key bindings when starting mutt? Thanks very much for the attention!
