Yes, my $TERM is set to screen-256color for a good reason because I use
tmux and tmux recognizes screen/screen-256color as well. With this
setting all terminals work as expected (for me) except xterm (which I
don't use) and rxvt. Setting the variable to `rxvt' would help for urxvt
but would leave me the problem that then some keys do not work within
other terminal-emulators.

Sureley I am as dumb as a brick but even a dumb guy has to make his
way in this world and one part of this way could be to change the
settings in emacs as a workaround (not a solution) and leave the
(working) rest alone. So I still sometimes can switch to another
terminal when I've won at the races or at any other opporturnity.

Sorry for the inconvenience

henry
