This sounds very much like my setup, or at least the setup I working 
towards.  I just added run.exe to all my rxvt remote login 
shortcuts, and now I have no more flashing Command Prompt windows.  
Thanks for the tip.

Are you using ClearCase on Windows, or just ClearCase on Unix?  We 
use both at work.  I found that I couldn't execute "cleartool edcs" 
in rxvt because cleartool apparently requires a Windows Console.  
The editor (vim) ran fine, but the screen filled with a bunch of 
garbage when I closed vim.  Are you able to run "cleartool edcs" in 
rxvt or ssh?

Regards,
Gary
