Does urxvt do that? Is there something lighter (than gnome-terminal) that does? * not the only one, but I'm not sure finalterm is really ready to use yet, and it's certainly not lightweight.

I just checked, and it seems to support rewrapping without any trouble. (Though, oddly enough, GNOME Terminal 2.31 doesn't.)

I'm on 3.14. Thank you, I will probably like that much better.

Edit: Hmm, it doesn't seem to work properly in 9.20. Well, I should probably be using tmux anyway, which does fix the problem.
