Same for me :)

Here's mine, it's simple but I like it ( of course I do ) ;)

Rxvt.saveLines:         1000
Rxvt.scrollBar:         False
Rxvt.foreground:        Grey
Rxvt.background:        Black
Rxvt.inheritPixmap:     True
Rxvt.tintColor:         White
Rxvt.shading:           15
Rxvt.geometry:          112x42
Rxvt.font:              -misc-fixed-medium-r-*-*-13-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1
Rxvt.jumpScroll:        True

And here's the script with which I start up new terminals:

#!/usr/bin/perl
exec sprintf( "LC_CTYPE=de_CH.UTF-8 urxvt -ip -sh 20 -tint \\#%06x", 
int(rand(0xFFFFFF+1)) )

I like different colours and so I get a random tint for each terminal :>

Bye!
