The acronym is obviously derived from IBM's 80s fetish for naming graphics cards X Graphics Adapter. In this case, RGA is the Roguelike Graphics Adapter. Keep your tongue firmly in your cheek as you pronounce this. It offers a number of features useful in Roguelike development:
The RGA understands the standard X3.64 terminal directives, just like rxvt. In addition, a couple of them have been extended to support more colours, and a couple of non-standard ones were added to control additional behaviour.
