I've been using urxvtd for a bit now, and I've noticed two situations in which life gets rather more painful than it would in the old (separate process) days:
1. I do something with a Perl extension that takes a long time. I can't use any of my terminal windows until it finishes. 2. I change the size of the text in a window with a long history. I can't use any of my terminal windows until all the text in all the windows is reformatted. These have slightly different solutions. The Perl pauses (e.g. searching in a large history for something that's not there) would go away if only I could interrupt them, but it seems I can't. I'm mainly thinking of searching in my history. As to reformatting the text, it would be nice if this were done in the background: due to the way my window manager (ion) works, when I resize one window, I typically resize all of them, and poof! my computer's busy for the next few minutes reformatting all my command histories, and I can't use any of my terminals. I do like the reformatting, though I'd settle for being able to scroll left and right and turn off reformatting. Finally, I noticed an English-o in the man page: "bidirectional algorithms belong into the application": into -> in. _______________________________________________ rxvt-unicode mailing list [email protected] http://lists.schmorp.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rxvt-unicode
