Running joe (from emerge joe) in an rxvt usually gets a really confused screen.
Building and installing joe-2.9.8-pre1 from source produces a perfectly working
joe. This may be a termcap/terminfo issue - joe is a pretty good test of whether
VT100 emulation is complete. Anyway, installing the current verion from tar
(changing /usr/local to /usr in the Makefile after ./configure to overwrite the
gentoo version) fixes the problem.

I've added it into portage with the testing KEYWORDS:

KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge joe

(I assume you're on an x86)
