That's exactly my point.  Setting up -one- is fine.  But I connect to God
only knows how many machines.  A good way to clone things (that doesn't
involve connecting to the host you already have configured) would seem to
be in order, to me.

Actually, it's both A and B.  :)  I'm -not- your typical user.  Ask my
admin at my ISP.  Hell, ask anyone that's seen me work.  *chuckle*

I disable the ruler and status bar.  Just want a terminal emulator to act
like an xterm would, basically.  I know a lot of people that use the ruler
in vi as well--I can't stand that either.  Clutter on my screen is just
distracting.

Ditto.  I may have a few gripes about the product, but your responsiveness
is appreciated.  Thanks!
