+   Why is the cursor now blinking in emacs/vi/...?
+    This is likely caused by your editor/program's use of the "cvvis"
+    terminfo capability. Emacs uses it by default, as well as some versions
+    of vi and possibly other programs.
+
+    In emacs, you can switch that off by adding this to your ".emacs" file:
+
+       (setq visible-cursor nil)
+
+    For other programs, if they do not have an option, your have to remove
+    the "cvvis" capability from the terminfo description.
+
+    When urxvt first added the blinking cursor option, it didn't add a
+    "cvvis" capability, which served no purpose before. Version 9.21
+    introduced "cvvis" (and the ability to control blinking independent of
+    cursor shape) for compatibility with other terminals, which
+    traditionally use a blinking cursor for "cvvis". This also reflects the
+    intent of programs such as emacs, who expect "cvvis" to enable a
+    blinking cursor.
