Thanks for the input.  Yes, rxvt is in BL3.  I refer
to it as xterm (just as I sometimes refer to nano as
pico) because lots of people don't know what rxvt is.

rxvt is not only smaller/faster than the real xterm, 
it also requires fewer X libraries.

A precompiled version of rxvt is in Slackware 3.5 
(and probably every Slackware since then).
