Re: [BUG] pututline () & rxvt: rxvt leaves stale utmp entries

I highly doubt it. Anyway I think the problem that you describe seems to be
the same problem
that MC experiences with its subshell. Both rxvt and MC have a subshell,
both control it via a
pty, both leave stale shells behind... This problem has been on my TODO list
for a while but I
didn't really have time to investigate properly... till now. I'm doing some
enhancements to
MC currently and I also plan to look at the problem with the subshell..
maybe tommorow.
