Description: X terminal-emulator similar to xterm, but smaller
xvt is an X terminal-emulator that is designed to be more or less
compatible with xterm while using much less swap space. It is mainly
intended for use at sites which use large numbers of X terminals but
may also be useful on single workstations that are short of memory.
The main way that xvt achieves its small size is by avoiding the use
of the X toolkit.
.
If you are looking for a more featureful terminal-emulator than xvt,
but one which still uses less swap space than xterm, consider rxvt.
.
Features of xterm which xvt does not support include:
.
- Tektronix 4014 emulation
- Session logging
- Pop-up menus. The only one of xterm's popup menu commands that
is provided in xvt is displaying and hiding of the scrollbar
and this is done simply by pressing any mouse key in the window
with the CONTROL key held down.
- Toolkit style configurability. In particular, xvt does not
allow the user to remap the mouse or keyboard keys.
.
Features which are supported include:
.
- VT100 emulation. Most of the main escape sequences are supported --
certainly all those used by the standard screen based UNIX
applications.
- Lines that scroll off the top of the window are saved and can be
scrolled back with a scrollbar.
- Text selection and insertion including double and triple click for
words and lines.

Hi.
I currently inspect the Debian wnpp bug list and search for old ITAs
(Intent to Adopt) that are mistitled.
You have expressed in bug report #201412 [0] the intent to adopt
the package "xvt". The last comment to this from you is dated from
26-10-2003, which is more than six months ago. Do you still intent to adopt
this package? If not, please retitle the bug, substituting "O:" for "ITA:".

Hi.
I've send you a mail on May, 16th 2004 to remind you that you have still
an ITA (Intend To Adopt) open for package xvt (see [0]).
Since you haven't replied for at least four weeks now I assume that you are
no longer interested in this package and retitled it back to O: (or RFA:).
Of course you can always ITA the package again if noone other steps forward
faster than you.
