Instead of hacking away on this old terminal, what about simply including
another nice Open Source project?

On Windows we have a replacement terminal, which has all the features you
want, and also supports tabs like Konsole. I've used it for several years, and
it works great. Have a look and see if you like it, then we can add it to the
repo:
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/console/

Original name, ey? :-)

That sounds awesome.  However, from their sourceforge page, it seems they 
support only 2k and xp?  What about 95 and nt?

Hmm, nope. Just tried it on 98, and that didn't fly. It requires 
symbols to do top-level transparency, which is only accessible from 
Win2K and later.
