xterm - the ancestor of all terminal emulators.

I still prefer it to gnome-terminal, for a number of reasons:
cutToBeginningOfLine:     false  (triple-click selects from cursor to 
end-of-line, not entire line - e.g. copy command without the prompt)

cutNewline:       off (triple-click doesn't select newline, so you can 
paste and then edit before pressing return)

vt100.eightBitInput:      true (allow meta key modifier e.g. to control 
zsh/emacs - although this totally breaks the model for i18n multi-byte 
character handling unfortunately)

-Bob
