gnome-terminal seems to work ok, I just assumed that xterm would also, given it was in the xmonad default config.

losing text:
If I make the window narrower (via xmonad meta-h), the text on the right hand side is hidden When I make it wider (meta-l), the hidden text doesn't return, I just see whitespace.
^L clears the screen, and if I shift-pgup to scroll backwards, the entire line history has been truncated at the minimum width I narrowed
to.
ah, I see. xterm's ^L clears :/ some apps are smarter and repaint. Maybe people can recommend another terminal more friendly to resizing? -- Don
