323 Right now, rxvt will first unmap/map the specified window, so it
324 shouldn't be a top-level window. rxvt will also reconfigure it quite
325 a bit, so don't expect it to keep some specific state. It's best to
326 create an extra subwindow for rxvt and leave it alone.
327
328 The window will not be destroyed when rxvt exits.

330 It might be useful to know that rxvt will not close file descriptors
331 passed to it (except for stdin/out/err, of course), so you can use
332 file descriptors to communicate with the programs within the
333 terminal. This works regardless of wether the "-embed" option was
334 used or not.
