687This is likely caused by your editor/program's use of the \f(CW\*(C`cvvis\*(C'\fR
688terminfo capability. Emacs uses it by default, as well as some versions of
689vi and possibly other programs.
690.PP
691In emacs, you can switch that off by adding this to your \f(CW\*(C`.emacs\*(C'\fR file:

697For other programs, if they do not have an option, your have to remove the
698\&\f(CW\*(C`cvvis\*(C'\fR capability from the terminfo description.
699.PP
700When @@URXVT_NAME@@ first added the blinking cursor option, it didn't
701add a \f(CW\*(C`cvvis\*(C'\fR capability, which served no purpose before. Version 9.21
702introduced \f(CW\*(C`cvvis\*(C'\fR (and the ability to control blinking independent of
703cursor shape) for compatibility with other terminals, which traditionally
704use a blinking cursor for \f(CW\*(C`cvvis\*(C'\fR. This also reflects the intent of
705programs such as emacs, who expect \f(CW\*(C`cvvis\*(C'\fR to enable a blinking cursor.
