such religious-war-fodder.  why is your favorite term better other than
'i think it's cool'? (this challenge directed at omar and victor both)

i prefer rxvt since it supports transparency (which i finally got sick of,
but it's still in there) and ansi color but is otherwise completely a
vt220/xterm compatible terminal, which i have found to not be the case with
eterm, konsole, and gnome-terminal.  logging into "stock"-ish solaris and
aix systems with one of the terms i'm not fond of often leaves you falling
back to xterm or xterm-color $TERM which frequently leaves intense curses
apps slightly broken and kills off some of the nifty features in those other
terms.

that it is still under fairly active development is a bonus (compared to
xterm or xterm-color).
