I'm using the Urxvt terminal.
aptitude show rxvt-unicode
RXVT-like terminal emulator with Unicode support
rxvt-unicode is a modern, Unicode-aware color xterm replacement that
uses significantly less memory than a conventional xterm and many
other Unicode supporting terminal emulators.
It supports using multiple fonts at the same time, including Xft
fonts, and client-server technology to reduce memory consumption when
using multiple windows.
This package contains the program version with most commonly-used
features enabled, including transparency, (16-bit) Unicode and
FreeType font support.
I have the file ~/.Xdefaults setup:
URxvt.colorRV: red
#URxvt.geometry: 100x40
URxvt.geometry: 100x38
URxvt.tintColor: gray
URxvt.shading: 100
URxvt.inheritPixmap: True
URxvt.foreground: Cyan3
URxvt.foreground: Black
URxvt.font: -biznet-fixed-*-*-*-*-24-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
URxvt.boldFont: -cronyx-fixed-bold-*-*-*-24-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
URxvt.internalBorder: 5
URxvt.externalBorder: 5
URxvt.cursorBlink: True
