'rxvt-unicode' through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful
information can be found at

The changes in this release are as follows:
Libev was updated, working around a problem with the Linux 2.4 kernel
and curing the problem of urxvt sometimes not refreshing in a timely
fashion. The -C option now works as expected. The urxvtd will flush X
events only once per display, not per open window. The slipwheeling
behavior has been improved. Text blinking will no longer take
miniscule amounts of CPU time when not used. There have been a lot of
small code cleanups and code size optimizations.  

Release focus:
3 - Code cleanup

Project description:
rxvt-unicode is a clone of the well known terminal emulator rxvt,
modified to store text in Unicode and to use locale-correct input and
output. It also supports mixing multiple fonts at the same time,
including Xft fonts, real transparency, and an optional embedded Perl
interpreter that allows you to extend your terminal easily.
