Re: wterm issues - rxvt not

Yes, but, this looks like a wterm issue. It doesn't look like its handling all
X events correctly. From running xev(1), it looks like it's not handling

wterm is still broken in 10.2 and 11.0

I have used it elsewhere... but right now I just tried to build wterm on linux myself and failed. Apparently the source-code is very old.

I checked the sourceforce project and not only it doesn't seem very active, but my impression is that it has no maintainer. What do you think? An option would be to "join" the SF project and work on it piece after piece and test&compare between NetBSD, FreeBSD, Linux...

Maybe it would be good to check & collect patches floating around. Perhaps some don't work well or are contra-productive. The easiest think for me would be for me to import the SourceForce sourcecode into github. Not that I like it very much, but I wouldn't start a new project on SF today.
