The first picture shows the obnoxious dark blue strip at the bottom, the
second doesn't. Both have a regular blue strip that is vim-specific, and
has nothing to do with this. In bash, writing at the bottom of the
maximized urxvt window means writing just above the dark blue strip,
which is annoying. The third shows non-maximized windows, with the
expected behavior.

Of course, this problem may not be related to openbox at all...
