Experiment 2
===========
1. Open mrxvt
2. Run vim
3. Run command :help in vim
4. Use scroll wheel of the mouse to scroll
5. Scrolling does NOT happen successfully
6. Rn command :set mouse=a in vim
7. Scrolling happens successfully
Could you please tell me why this difference occurs?
The short (and possibly wrong) answer would be that rxvt is designed
to be small and simple: gnome-terminal is a lot more featureful than
rxvt, and a lot fatter, and this must be one of the extra things
that g-t can do.
