No prob.

You might want to check what urxvt is setting its TERM environment
variable to be.  It should be "rxvt-unicode", since that's what
your system terminfo/termcap has installed.  However, it might be
"urxvt" or even "xterm".  If that's the case, you'll want to
change it.  I think I saw a configuration setting for that.  If
there isn't one, you can do it easily enough from your
.{bash,ksh,csh,zsh,$whatever_sh}rc startup file.  ;-)  Granted, it
should work well enough set to "xterm", but you might as well be
able to use all of urxvts capabilities.
