Subject:   Good Terminal for X?

I use Icewm, so don't want to install all that kde/gnome 
libs/dependencies and such to get konsole or gnome-console (but both are 
nice)

xterm does display some things correctly (like sysinstall type command 
line GUIs).

eterm is nice, but again, requires a ton of libs and looks funny on low 
color displays (ie. remotely to save bandwidth).

I have putty, which works very nice.
I guess I could set it up to ssh locally; but don't see any good reason 
it should be going though ssh just to get a terminal (it's a slow 
workstation).

Any other suggestions?
