actually... i just found out that our sysadmin has set the TERM=xterm for rxvt,
so that comment about nano working under rxvt is false. it is broken in aterm
and rxvt when using the TERM=rxvt

it is also worth noting that i get the same bug in the system /usr/bin/vi

anyone have any ideas what could be wrong with my system setup? obviously
nothing is playing nice with the rxvt termentry

cheers,
Sam
