Configure RXVT
- The default rxvt font size is too small. How do I enlarge it?
- Open C:\MSYS\1.0\msys.bat with a text editor and search for a line containing "80x25". Then replace it with:
rem The following should be all one line.
start rxvt -backspacekey ^H -sl 2500 -fg grey90 -bg black -sr -fn "Courier-bold-20"
-tn msys -geometry 80x25 -e /bin/sh --login -i - You can change the Courier font above with your favorite one. Note that using TrueType fonts (such as Courier New or Lucida Console) will result in sluggish performance under Windows XP.
- Open C:\MSYS\1.0\msys.bat with a text editor and search for a line containing "80x25". Then replace it with:
- Why don't the Home and End keys work in rxvt and vim?
- This is because rxvt's terminal emulation uses different escape codes for these two keys. This sample ~/.inputrc file solves this issue:
set completion-query-items 100
set completion-ignore-case on
set show-all-if-ambiguous off
set input-meta on
set output-meta on
set convert-meta off
set bell-style none
"\e[2~": paste-from-clipboard
"\e[3~": delete-char
"\e[5~": beginning-of-history
"\e[6~": end-of-history
"\e[7~": beginning-of-line
"\e[8~": end-of-line - Also, you need to set up your ~/.vimrc to enable the Home/End keys in ViM:
set nocompatible
set backspace=2
syntax on
map[7~
map[8~
imap[7~
imap[8~
