Hi all,

I installed wterm on 11RC6 just because it looks nice with windowmaker. 
AFAIK it is rxvt derivative.

However, I discovered that wterm doesn't work properly: it comes up, but 
no prompt no text echo, just a cursor. I type in wildly. Then, if I make 
it loose focus and regain it by clicking around, it updates. If I run 
htop, I notice it doesn't update properly either.

rxvt, however, works properly.

Can you reproduce the issue too?

Riccardo

PS: I then tried that on NetBSD 10 release and i have the same issue, so 
it is not a new 11RC issue.
