It seems that it was a limitation of the fixed font that I had defined for |
| 12 |
aterm in .Xresources: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
aterm*font:-*-fixed-*-*-*-*-20-*-100-*-*-*-*-* |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Setting a different font and using xft seems to overcome this problem: |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
/usr/bin/urxvt -pe tabbed -fn "x:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:pixelsize=15" |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
No idea why aterm copes with fixed font and urxvt does not ... |
