Over the weekend I upgraded rxvt-unicode to the latest minor-version release (9.20 from 9.15). Now when I type a long line in a virtual terminal the text shifts left rather than wrapping. Cursor behavior on the command line makes editing difficult.
I cannot imagine what in the rvxt-unicode upgrade could cause this behavior, but that's the only system change I made recently. When I remove the rxvt-unicode package and change the vt command to rxvt from urxvt, then lines wrap as expected but I cannot correctly display UTF-8 characters. The distributed rxvt was built with multichar_languages capability (as shown with 'rxvt -h') and LANG=en_US.UTF-8 so it _should_ display accented characters, yes? The rxvt man page shows me the -km command line/compile option for multicharacter language display but I don't know which of the listed modes would be appropriate. Your help in having rxvt/urxvt correctly display multicharacter languages and wrap lines instead of shifting them is appreciated.
