Hello Stephan,
yes, it is not even a workaround..... this is how to run tlf in a rxvt:
Add the following information to .Xdefaults (you have to restart X for it to
have effect), which will set the right colours for tlf, and also take care of
the function key problem. Now you can start tlf with: tlf -x to get rxvt
compatibility.
You can also set a parameter RXVT in logcfg.dat.
The stuff for .Xdefaults:
! ===========================================================================
! Rxvt Colours and keys for compatibility with linux console
! ===========================================================================
!
Rxvt*color0: #000000
Rxvt*color1: #FFFFFF
Rxvt*color2: #00A800
Rxvt*color3: #FFFF00
Rxvt*color4: #0000A8
Rxvt*color5: #A800A8
Rxvt*color6: #00A8A8
Rxvt*color7: #D8D8D8
Rxvt*color8: #000000
Rxvt*color9: #FFFFFF
Rxvt*color10: #00A800
Rxvt*color11: #FFFF00
Rxvt*color12: #0000A8
Rxvt*color13: #A800A8
Rxvt*color14: #00A8A8
Rxvt*color15: #D8D8D8
! set terminal
Rxvt*termName: rxvt
! set window title
Rxvt*title: tlf
! set geometry
Rxvt*geometry: 80x25
! switch scrollbar off
Rxvt*scrollBar: False
! set function keys F1...F5 to linux console
Rxvt*keysym.0xFFBE: \033[[A
Rxvt*keysym.0xFFBF: \033[[B
Rxvt*keysym.0xFFC0: \033[[C
Rxvt*keysym.0xFFC1: \033[[D
Rxvt*keysym.0xFFC2: \033[[E
Success,
Rein PA0RCT
