logged in through an xterm: *SUCCESS* !!!! (or at least no quick,

In short, looks like an issue between rxvt on FreeBSD 9.3Rp13 & vi on
NetBSD-7 ARM. The box is mostly working, I was hoping my clues so far
would be enough to point someone towards a problem, but apparently not.
I will see about getting an xterm configuration I can live with & use
that to access the NetBSD-7 ARM box .... Thanks :-) ....
You can customize xterm(1) via ~/.Xdefaults, e.g. (I am bringing this
file with me from the very first time when I started to use NetBSD on a
ye-olde Pentium 133Mhz... probably some of these options are the default
now but it will illustrates you how to do that :)):
XTerm*foreground: white
XTerm*background: black
XTerm*faceName: Droid Sans Mono
XTerm*faceSize: 13
XTerm*renderFont: true
XTerm*bellIsUrgent: true
XTerm*altIsNotMeta: true
XTerm*altSendsEscape: true
XTerm*pointerMode: 1
XTerm*charClass: 33:48,35:48,37-38:48,45-47:48,58:48
XTerm*utf8: 2
XTerm*loginShell: true
Regarding the bar ``XTerm*scrollBar: false'' should disable it.
HTH,
Ciao,
