Interesting, I wouldn't have thought the local parameter would work.  The parameters I'm using are -C1 -R%d .  Maybe I should try -L to see if that's any different.  However, if you're telling RA to run in local mode, I'm not sure if it will do any detection of the remote user's terminal capabilities (which would still be useful).
