I just don't get it.  What's wrong with rxvt?  I've been using it for years as 
my only terminal for cygwin and never understood why it isn't the default.  I 
tried mintty the other day but couldn't find anything rxvt isn't doing.  In 
fact, mintty kind of froze on something eventually - at which point I decided 
to give up on it.  So why should I use mintty?
