 =head3 Isn't rxvt-unicode supposed to be small? Don't all those features bloat?
 I often get asked about this, and I think, no, they didn't cause extra
 bloat. If you compare a minimal rxvt and a minimal urxvt, you can see
 Backspace keysym (not likely for Linux ... see the following
 question) there are two standard values that can be used for
 Backspace: C<^H> and C<^?>.
 Historically, either value is correct, but rxvt-unicode adopts the debian
-policy of using C<^?> when unsure, because it's the one only only correct
+policy of using C<^?> when unsure, because it's the one and only correct
 choice :).
 Rxvt-unicode tries to inherit the current stty settings and uses the value
 of `erase' to guess the value for backspace.  If rxvt-unicode wasn't
 started from a terminal (say, from a menu or by remote shell), then the
 If you encounter strange problems like typing an accented character but
 getting two unrelated other characters or similar, or if program output is
 subtly garbled, then you should check your locale settings.
 Rxvt-unicode must be started with the same C<LC_CTYPE> setting as the

 The best thing is to fix your startup environment, as you will likely run
 into other problems. If nothing works you can try this in your .profile.
-  printf '\33]701;%s\007' "$LC_CTYPE"
+  printf '\33]701;%s\007' "$LC_CTYPE"   # $LANG or $LC_ALL are worth a try, too
 If this doesn't work, then maybe you use a C<LC_CTYPE> specification not
 supported on your systems. Some systems have a C<locale> command which
 displays this (also, C<perl -e0> can be used to check locale settings, as
 it will complain loudly if it cannot set the locale). If it displays something

 =item --enable-combining (default: on)
 A non-exhaustive list of features enabled by C<--enable-frills> (possibly
 in combination with other switches) is:
   MWM-hints
   EWMH-hints (pid, utf8 names) and protocols (ping)
+  urgency hint
   seperate underline colour (-underlineColor)
   settable border widths and borderless switch (-w, -b, -bl)
   visual depth selection (-depth)
   settable extra linespacing /-lsp)
-  iso-14755-2 and -3, and visual feedback
+  iso-14755 5.1 (basic) support
   tripleclickwords (-tcw)
   settable insecure mode (-insecure)
   keysym remapping support
   cursor blinking and underline cursor (-cb, -uc)
   XEmbed support (-embed)
 It also enables some non-essential features otherwise disabled, such as:
   some round-trip time optimisations
   nearest color allocation on pseudocolor screens
-  UTF8_STRING supporr for selection
+  UTF8_STRING support for selection
   sgr modes 90..97 and 100..107
   backindex and forwardindex escape sequences
-  view change/zero scorllback esacpe sequences
+  view change/zero scrollback escape sequences
   locale switching escape sequence
   window op and some xterm/OSC escape sequences
   rectangular selections
   trailing space removal for selections
   verbose X error handling
 =item --disable-new-selection
 Remove support for mouse selection style like that of xterm.
-=item --enable-dmalloc (default: off)
-Use Gray Watson's malloc - which is good for debugging See
-L<http://www.letters.com/dmalloc/> for details If you use either this or the
-next option, you may need to edit src/Makefile after compiling to point
-DINCLUDE and DLIB to the right places.
-You can only use either this option and the following (should
-you use either) .
-=item --enable-dlmalloc (default: off)
-Use Doug Lea's malloc - which is good for a production version
-See L<http://g.oswego.edu/dl/html/malloc.html> for details.
 =item --enable-smart-resize (default: on)
 Add smart growth/shrink behaviour when changing font size via hot
 keys. This should keep the window corner which is closest to a corner of
 the screen in a fixed position.
 Add support to have the pointer disappear when typing or inactive.
 =item --enable-perl (default: on)
 Enable an embedded perl interpreter. See the B<@@RXVT_NAME@@perl(3)>
-manpage (F<doc/rxvtperl.txt>) for more info on this feature, or the files
