Ok, this doesn't seem to be an xterm cheatsheet at all, it is more of a bash with emacs line editing mode on (instead of vi, which would be a bunch of different key combinations). While the Processes section is not bash/emacs specific it isn't specific to xterm either, it applies to any shell with job control and works on the console, outside of X too (just like the rest of these). Perhaps an actual xterm cheatsheet should mention xterm-specific escape codes or mouse actions, not bash / sh keys.
Cheatography n. The art of mapping complex subjects into clear, instantly navigable reference guides.
