One week ago, i sent a message relating to rxvt... I made new experiments:

a/ when I enter 'rxvt -tn rxvt -e /bin/tcsh', rxvt displays no menu
Note: I obtain the same effect if i launch rxvt from the startxwin.bat file
or from the menus od fvwm2.
What do you think about this situation ?

b/ when a start rxvt from a terminal, rxvt works properly :)

c/ when a start rxvt with '-tn xterm' (or no -tn argument), tcsh replies:
'tcsh: no entry for terminal type "xterm"'
Note: my default termcap file contains the entries relating to xterm...

Finally, a last question:
I set the SHELL environment variable in 'startxwin.bat': is it a right place
?
I don't understand why this variable is not properly set by the environment
(although tcsh is my default shell)

My config:
- rxvt v2.7.2
- XFree86 v4.2.0
- WinXP
