I have a strange problem in the combination of urxvt with emacs.
I use emacs just in text-mode, so no X-window is opened.
What I experience is, that if I move the cursor in any text, the cursor
sometimes just gets larger than one character (only in places where only
spaces are!), sometimes up to 8 space characters wide.

This is probably a result of emacs printing a tab character to the terminal. Urxvt treats a tab similar to how it treats wide characters, except that a tab can take up to 8 cells, whereas other characters are at most 2 cells wide.

I'm not sure how you can fix this. You'd probably have to modify emacs to output spaces or vt102-like escape sequences instead. Maybe they already have some configuration option for that, I don't know. Alternately you could try running emacs inside screen, for screen usually doesn't output tabs, but I don't think this is guaranteed and could depend on the version of screen or the TERM variable or something. If all that fails, you could try to modify urxvt, or modify screen or some other terminal filter program, but any of these might be difficult.
