This is getting a bit off-topic, but one thing that
bothers me is "normal" resizing under Windows. I'd
rather it behave like it does under X (and command
windows do under Windows), jumping to even multiples
of lines & columns. I use a tiny zsh script to clean
up (with the added benefit of allowing you to resize
via command line):

#!/usr/bin/zsh
# Resize RXVT window to an exact number of LINES & COLUMNS
#
# Usage:
# fs [LINES] [COLUMNS]
#
# Where LINES or COLUMNS may be:
#
# <number> - specify exact value
# (+|-|*|/)<number> - value relative to current setting (+1, /2,
etc.)
# <anything else> - use current setting (current text region)
#
# 'fs' by itself trims the current window to exactly match its text
region
#
# E.g.:
# Trim to fit text: fs
# Set width to 132: fs . 132
# Set to 24x80: fs 24 80
# Add one line: fs +1
# Double the width: fs . '*2' # must quote '*' from the shell
case $1 in
+[0-9]*|-[0-9]*|\*[0-9]*|/[0-9]*) ((L = $LINES $1)) ;;
[0-9]*) L=$1 ;;
*) L=$LINES ;;
esac
case $2 in
+[0-9]*|-[0-9]*|\*[0-9]*|/[0-9]*) ((C = $COLUMNS $2)) ;;
[0-9]*) C=$2 ;;
*) C=$COLUMNS ;;
esac
print $'\e[8;'"$L;${C}t"
