What is the difference between rxvt-unicode and rxvt-unicode-ml?
I tried installing both the packages. When one is installed, the other
is removed. But I didn't find any visible difference while using them.
Both can be invoked using the 'urxvt' command. Both has the same man
page. I am curious to see at least one difference in behavior in both
the programs. Anyone is willing to show me some difference between the
two?

Description: 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.

Description: multi-lingual terminal emulator with Unicode support for X11
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 is configured with all additional features, including
additional multi-language functions (direct support for Asian encodings
and extended Unicode
3 support), and an embedded Perl interpreter.
Note especially the last sentences of each description.
