HOw about using a trap on sig TERM? Have it do something harmless
or ignore it

I have some wrappers to invoke a telnet or an ssh within an rxvt window so
that I can label it with the host I'm connecting to. I love rxvt because
it has real vt emulation, and also gives me X-like middle mouse cut and
paste operations that I'm used to from my Sun environment, but all without
the overhead of running X. However, a really annoying and quite hazardous
artifact of rxvt in cygwin is that it will grab the control-Cs sent from
the parent bash session and close down. Unfortunately, pings, by default
are unlimited in iteration and so must be killed when you're done with it
and also, I'm in the habit of using control-C to quit a command line in
progress to get back to a prompt.
Unless I remember to to start a new bash window to do anything where I
might send a Control-C, I end up clobbering the 20 odd telnet/ssh sessions
I have up, some of which could contain important processes that are
difficult to recover from being terminated.
Any advice on
1) Whether this is an issue with bash or rxvt or both?
2) Any workarounds i.e.- application flags for rxvt or bash that I can
code in to avoid this behavior.
Thanks in advance.
