In another thread in which I was seeking a better way to handle unicode in my terminals (my current preference mrxvt does not support it) rxvt-unicode was suggested as a possible alternative. However, now I am dealing with an even more aggravating situation, and that is the alternate screen where the entire screen is cleared after closing things like man or less. I cannot put into words how much I hate this "feature" and would love to find a way to turn it off. I have googled and found nothing which worked. I would assume that other Debian users are faced with this, since it seems the default in all the terminals, and I would very much appreciate any ideas of how others get it to stop.
