In /usr/share/terminfo/r/ are rxvt-unicode and rxvt-unicode-256colors. In /etc/DIR_COLORS I added 'TERM rxvt-unicode' after learning that 'TERM urxvt' meant nothing to the system. I just added '-tn rxvt-unicode' to the command line; no difference. Here's what I see when I cd to a deep subdirectory: </washington/echo-bay-exploration/bore-holes-wq/ </washington/echo-bay-exploration/bore-holes-wq/ < <q/ This is on Slackware-13.1/32-bit running Xfce. It's quite distracting to see this rather than the wrapped lines that vanilla rxvt displayed.
