-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Josip,
In the case of clusterssh, it's inappropriate to have it simply launch /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator because clusterssh has no way of knowing whether /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator points to a terminal emulator that supports the VT100.allowSendEvents property. A piped dependency may ensure that a terminal emulator exists that works with clusterssh, but doesn't guarantee that the alternatives system has selected it. I'll consider this, but there's something to be said for a package that works out of the box without the user having to edit .csshrc or modify alternatives. rxvt is smaller and has fewer dependencies, so it may be a better default choice.
