That's what I expected. |

I don't think that readline has anything to do with this. |

I don't know about rxvt per say. |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
But I thought there was a common library (libterm?) used by a number of |
| 42 |
terminal emulators that actually saved the output to a temporary file. |
| 43 |
That way they could re-display the output if (when) the window size changed. |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
After emerging and testing rxvt, yes, it will rewrap the line to the new |
| 46 |
window width. It seems as if it saves the output as discreet lines and |
| 47 |
re-wraps them individually based on the terminal width. So, the output |
| 48 |
of an ls -l in a 132 character window, causes each line to be re-wrapped |
| 49 |
(as below) when reducing the window width. |

This 40 character wide… |
