[Pkg-urxvt-maintainers] [Bug 1033705] [NEW] urxvt shells don't show up in `who` output.

[enoksrd]

Public bug reported:

When using the urxvt shell, the `who` and `w` commands don't list my
shells or add me to the user count.  E.g., with two urxvts open:

$ w
 15:57:37 up 18 min,  0 users,  load average: 0.52, 0.76, 0.72
USER     TTY      FROM              LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU WHAT

Whereas, after opening two gnome-terminals:

$ w
 15:58:33 up 19 min,  2 users,  load average: 0.72, 0.76, 0.72
USER     TTY      FROM              LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU WHAT
collins  pts/2    :0               15:58    1.00s  0.30s  0.30s zsh
collins  pts/3    :0               15:58    0.00s  0.72s  0.00s w

Similar bugs are reported elsewhere for the Tilda [1] and xterm [2]
terminal emulators.  The xterm bug report has lots of relevant comments.
