I got errors:

    setenv TERM rxvt-256color
    tcsh: No entry for terminal type "rxvt-256color"
    tcsh: using dumb terminal settings.

Another try:

    $ TERM=rxvt-256color
    $ tput colors
    tput: unknown terminal "rxvt-256color"

toe doesn't give me rxvt-256color:

$ toe | grep ^rxvt

    rxvt-cygwin     rxvt terminal emulator (X Window System) on cygwin
    rxvt-basic      rxvt terminal base (X Window System)
    rxvt            rxvt terminal emulator (X Window System)
    rxvt-16color    xterm with 16 colors like aixterm
    rxvt+pcfkeys    fragment for PC-style fkeys
    rxvt-xpm        rxvt terminal emulator (X Window System)
    rxvt-color      rxvt terminal emulator (X Window System)
    rxvt-cygwin-native      rxvt terminal emulator (native MS Window System 
port) on cygwin

So, some terminfo is missing... But my rxvt works very well
with vim and 256 colors.

    Thanks for your answer,

        Luis.
