A prettier Terminal in OS-X Part 3 (urxvt and screen)

February 21st, 2009 | Permalink | Bookmark and Share

I was a bit annoyed of having to set TERM=xterm-256color. A more or less proper solution can be found on the rxvt-unicode ml from John Eikenberry.

cd ~
infocmp -L rxvt-unicode > rxvt-unicode.terminfo
sed -i '' 's/#256/#32767/' rxvt-unicode.terminfo
sed -i '' 's/#88/#256/' rxvt-unicode.terminfo
if [ ! -e .terminfo ]; then
mkdir .terminfo
fi
tic -o .terminfo/ rxvt-unicode.terminfo
rm rxvt-unicode.terminfo

I’ve also largely assimilated Bart’s configs. You can find them and the screenrc here .
