DESCRIPTION |
9 |
rxvt-unicode, version 5.3, is a colour vt102 terminal emulator intended |
10 |
as an *xterm*(1) replacement for users who do not require features such |
11 |
as Tektronix 4014 emulation and toolkit-style configurability. As a |
12 |
result, rxvt-unicode uses much less swap space -- a significant |
13 |
advantage on a machine serving many X sessions. |

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS |

See rxvt(7) (try "man 7 rxvt") for a list of frequently asked questions |
17 |
and answer to them and some common problems. That document is also |
18 |
accessible on the World-Wide-Web at |

RXVT-UNICODE VS. RXVT |
22 |
Unlike the original rxvt, rxvt-unicode stores all text in Unicode |
23 |
internally. That means it can store and display most scripts in the |
24 |
world. Being a terminal emulator, however, some things are very |
25 |
difficult, especially cursive scripts such as arabic, vertically written |
26 |
scripts like mongolian or scripts requiring extremely complex combining |
27 |
rules, like tibetan or devenagari. Don't expect pretty output when using |
28 |
these scripts. Most other scripts, latin, cyrillic, kanji, thai etc. |
29 |
should work fine, though. A somewhat difficult case are left-to-right |
30 |
scripts, such as hebrew: rxvt-unicode adopts the view that bidirectional |
31 |
algorithms belong into the application, not the terminal emulator (too |
32 |
many things -- such as cursor-movement while editing -- break |
33 |
otherwise), but that might change. |
34 |
|
35 |
If you are looking for a terminal that supports more exotic scripts, let |
36 |
me recommend "mlterm", which is a very userfriendly, lean and clean |
37 |
terminal emulator. In fact, the reason rxvt-unicode was born was solely |
38 |
because the author couldn't get "mlterm" to use one font for latin1 and |
39 |
another for japanese. |
40 |
|
41 |
Therefore another design rationale was the use of multiple fonts to |
42 |
display characters: The idea of a single unicode font which many other |
43 |
programs force onto it's users never made sense to me: You should be |
44 |
able to choose any font for any script freely. |
45 |
|
46 |
Apart from that, rxvt-unicode is also much better internationalised than |
47 |
it's predecessor, supports things such as XFT and ISO 14755 that are |
48 |
handy in i18n-environments, is faster, and has a lot less bugs than the |
49 |
original rxvt. This all in addition to dozens of other small |
50 |
improvements. |
51 |
|
52 |
It is still faithfully following the original rxvt idea of being lean |
53 |
and nice on resources: for example, you can still configure rxvt-unicode |
54 |
without most of it's features to get a lean binary. It also comes with a |
55 |
client/daemon pair that lets you open any number of terminal windows |
56 |
from within a single process, which makes startup time very fast and |
57 |
drastically reduces memory usage. See rxvtd(1) (daemon) and rxvtc(1) |
58 |
(client). |
59 |
|
60 |
It also makes technical information about escape sequences (which have |
61 |
been extended) easier accessible: see rxvt(7) for technical reference |
62 |
documentation (escape sequences etc.). |

|
64 |
OPTIONS |
65 |
The rxvt options (mostly a subset of *xterm*'s) are listed below. In |
66 |
keeping with the smaller-is-better philosophy, options may be eliminated |
67 |
or default values chosen at compile-time, so options and defaults listed |
68 |
may not accurately reflect the version installed on your system. `rxvt |
69 |
-h' gives a list of major compile-time options on the *Options* line. |
70 |
Option descriptions may be prefixed with which compile option each is |
71 |
dependent upon. e.g. `Compile *XIM*:' requires *XIM* on the *Options* |
72 |
line. Note: `rxvt -help' gives a list of all command-line options |
73 |
compiled into your version. |
74 |
|
75 |
Note that rxvt permits the resource name to be used as a long-option |
76 |
(--/++ option) so the potential command-line options are far greater |
77 |
than those listed. For example: `rxvt --loginShell --color1 Orange'. |
78 |
|
79 |
The following options are available: |
80 |
|
81 |
-help, --help |
82 |
Print out a message describing available options. |
83 |
|
84 |
-display *displayname* |
85 |
Attempt to open a window on the named X display (-d still |

87 |
the DISPLAY environment variable is used. |

96 |
Turn on/off jump scrolling; resource jumpScroll. |

105 |
|
106 |

107 |
Tint the transparent background pixmap with the given colour when |
108 |
transparency is enabled with -tr or -ip. See also the -sh option |
109 |
that can be used to brighten or darken the image in addition to |
110 |
tinting it. |
111 |
|
112 |
-sh *number* Darken (0 .. 100) or lighten (-1 .. -100) the transparent |
113 |
background image in addition to tinting it (i.e. -tint must be |
114 |
specified, too, e.g. "-tint white"). |

117 |
Window background colour; resource background. |
118 |
|
119 |

|
122 |
-pixmap *file[;geom]* |
123 |
Compile *XPM*: Specify XPM file for the background and also |
124 |
optionally specify its scaling with a geometry string. Note you may |
125 |
need to add quotes to avoid special shell interpretation of the ";" |
126 |
in the command-line; resource backgroundPixmap. |
127 |
|

139 |
scrollbar and the text; resource borderColor. |
140 |
|
141 |
-fn *fontlist* |
142 |
Select the fonts to be used. This is a comma separated list of font |
143 |
names that are used in turn when trying to display Unicode |
144 |
characters. The first font defines the cell size for characters; |
145 |
other fonts might be smaller, but not (in general) larger. A |
146 |
(hopefully) reasonable default font list is always appended to it. |
147 |
See resource font for more details. |
148 |
|
149 |
In short, to specify an X11 core font, just specify it's name or |
150 |
prefix it with "x:". To specify an XFT-font, you need to prefix it |
151 |
with "xft:", e.g.: |
152 |
|
153 |
rxvt -fn "xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:pixelsize=15" |
154 |
rxvt -fn "9x15bold,xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono" |
155 |

|
172 |
-name *name* |
173 |
Specify the application name under which resources are to be |
174 |
obtained, rather than the default executable file name. Name should |
175 |
not contain `.' or `*' characters. Also sets the icon and title |
176 |
name. |
177 |
|
178 |
-ls|+ls |
179 |
Start as a login-shell/sub-shell; resource loginShell. |

-ptab|+ptab |
213 |
If enabled (default), "Horizontal Tab" characters are being stored |
214 |
as actual wide characters in the screen buffer, which makes it |
215 |
possible to select and paste them. Since a horizontal tab is a |
216 |
cursor movement and not an actual glyph, this can sometimes be |
217 |
visually annoying as the cursor on a tab character is displayed as a |
218 |
wide cursor; resource pastableTabs. |

233 |
entry for limits; resource internalBorder. |
234 |
|
235 |
-w *number* |
236 |
Compile *frills*: External border of *number* pixels. Also, -bw and |
237 |
-borderwidth. See resource entry for limits; resource |
238 |
externalBorder. |
239 |
|
240 |
-bl Compile *frills*: Set MWM hints to request a borderless window, i.e. |
241 |
if honoured by the WM, the rxvt-unicode window will not have window |
242 |
decorations; resource borderLess. |
243 |
|
244 |
-lsp *number* |
245 |

249 |
-tn *termname* |
250 |
This option specifies the name of the terminal type to be set in the |
251 |
TERM environment variable. This terminal type must exist in the |

253 |
resource termName. |
254 |
|
255 |
-e *command [arguments]* |
256 |
Run the command with its command-line arguments in the rxvt window; |
257 |
also sets the window title and icon name to be the basename of the |
258 |
program being executed if neither *-title* (*-T*) nor *-n* are given |
259 |
on the command line. If this option is used, it must be the last on |
260 |
the command-line. If there is no -e option then the default is to |
261 |
run the program specified by the SHELL environment variable or, |
262 |
failing that, *sh(1)*. |
263 |
|
264 |
-title *text* |
265 |
Window title (-T still respected); the default title is the basename |
266 |
of the program specified after the -e option, if any, otherwise the |
267 |
application name; resource title. |
268 |
|
269 |
-n *text* |
270 |
Icon name; the default name is the basename of the program specified |
271 |
after the -e option, if any, otherwise the application name; |
272 |
resource iconName. |
273 |
|
274 |

278 |
OffTheSpot, Root; resource preeditType. |
279 |
|
280 |

281 |
Compile *XIM*: input method name. resource inputMethod. |
282 |
|
283 |
-imlocale *string* |
284 |
The locale to use for opening the IM. You can use an "LC_CTYPE" of |
285 |
e.g. "de_DE.UTF-8" for normal text processing but "ja_JP.EUC-JP" for |
286 |
the input extension to be able to input japanese characters while |
287 |
staying in another locale. resource imLocale. |
288 |
|
289 |
-imfont *fontset* |
290 |
Set the font set to use for the X Input Method, see resource imFont |
291 |
for more info. |
292 |
|
293 |
-tcw |
294 |
Change the meaning of triple-click selection with the left mouse |
295 |
button. Instead of selecting a full line it will extend the |
296 |
selection the end of the logical line only. resource |
297 |
tripleclickwords. |
298 |
|
299 |
-insecure |
300 |
Enable "insecure" mode, which currently enables most of the escape |
301 |
sequences that echo strings. See the resource insecure for more |
302 |
info. |
303 |
|
304 |
-mod *modifier* |
305 |
Override detection of Meta modifier with specified key: alt, meta, |
306 |
hyper, super, mod1, mod2, mod3, mod4, mod5; resource *modifier*. |
307 |
|
308 |
-ssc|+ssc |
309 |

310 |
secondaryScreen. |
311 |
|
312 |
-ssr|+ssr |
313 |
Turn on/off secondary screen scroll (default enabled); resource |
314 |
secondaryScroll. |
315 |
|
316 |
-keysym.*sym* *string* |
317 |
Remap a key symbol. See resource keysym. |
318 |
|
319 |
-embed *windowid* |
320 |
Tells rxvt to embed it's windows into an already-existing window, |
321 |
which enables applications to easily embed a terminal. |
322 |
|
323 |
Right now, rxvt will first unmap/map the specified window, so it |
324 |
shouldn't be a top-level window. rxvt will also reconfigure it quite |
325 |
a bit, so don't expect it to keep some specific state. It's best to |
326 |
create an extra subwindow for rxvt and leave it alone. |
327 |
|
328 |
The window will not be destroyed when rxvt exits. |
329 |
|
330 |
It might be useful to know that rxvt will not close file descriptors |
331 |
passed to it (except for stdin/out/err, of course), so you can use |
332 |
file descriptors to communicate with the programs within the |
333 |
terminal. This works regardless of wether the "-embed" option was |
334 |
used or not. |
335 |
|
336 |
Here is a short Gtk2-perl snippet that illustrates how this option |
337 |
can be used (a longer example is in doc/embed): |
338 |
|
339 |
my $rxvt = new Gtk2::Socket; |
340 |
$rxvt->signal_connect_after (realize => sub { |
341 |
my $xid = $_[0]->window->get_xid; |
342 |
system "rxvt -embed $xid &"; |
343 |
}); |
344 |
|
345 |
-pty-fd *fileno* |
346 |
Tells rxvt NOT to execute any commands or create a new pty/tty pair |
347 |
but instead use the given filehandle as the tty master. This is |
348 |
useful if you want to drive rxvt as a generic terminal emulator |
349 |
without having to run a program within it. |
350 |
|
351 |
If this switch is given, rxvt will not create any utmp/wtmp entries |
352 |
and will not tinker with pty/tty permissions - you have to do that |
353 |
yourself if you want that. |
354 |
|
355 |
Here is a example in perl that illustrates how this option can be |
356 |
used (a longer example is in doc/pty-fd): |
357 |
|
358 |
use IO::Pty; |
359 |
use Fcntl; |
360 |
|
361 |
my $pty = new IO::Pty; |
362 |
fcntl $pty, F_SETFD, 0; # clear close-on-exec |
363 |
system "rxvt -pty-fd " . (fileno $pty) . "&"; |
364 |
close $pty; |
365 |
|
366 |
# now communicate with rxvt |
367 |
my $slave = $pty->slave; |
368 |
while (<$slave>) { print $slave "got <$_>\n" } |
369 |
|
370 |
RESOURCES (available also as long-options) |
371 |
Note: `rxvt --help' gives a list of all resources (long options) |
372 |
compiled into your version. |
373 |
|
374 |
There are two different methods that rxvt can use to get the Xresource |
375 |
data: using the X libraries (Xrm*-functions) or internal Xresources |
376 |
reader (~/.Xdefaults). For the first method (ie. rxvt -h lists |
377 |
XGetDefaults), you can set and change the resources using X11 tools like |
378 |
xrdb. Many distribution do also load settings from the ~/.Xresources |
379 |
file when X starts. rxvt will consult the following files/resources in |
380 |
order, with later settings overwriting earlier ones: |
381 |
|
382 |
1. system-wide app-defaults file, either locale-dependent OR global |
383 |
2. app-defaults file in $XAPPLRESDIR |
384 |
3. RESOURCE_MANAGER property on root-window OR $HOME/.Xdefaults |
385 |
4. SCREEN_RESOURCES for the current screen |
386 |
5. $XENVIRONMENT file OR $HOME/.Xdefaults-<nodename> |
387 |
|
388 |
If compiled with internal Xresources support (i.e. rxvt -h lists |
389 |
.Xdefaults) then rxvt accepts application defaults set in |
390 |
XAPPLOADDIR/URxvt (compile-time defined: usually |
391 |
/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/URxvt) and resources set in ~/.Xdefaults, or |
392 |
~/.Xresources if ~/.Xdefaults does not exist. Note that when reading X |
393 |
resources, rxvt recognizes two class names: XTerm and URxvt. The class |
394 |
name Rxvt allows resources common to both rxvt and the original *rxvt* |
395 |
to be easily configured, while the class name URxvt allows resources |
396 |
unique to rxvt, notably colours and key-handling, to be shared between |
397 |
different rxvt configurations. If no resources are specified, suitable |
398 |
defaults will be used. Command-line arguments can be used to override |
399 |
resource settings. The following resources are allowed: |
400 |
|
401 |
geometry: *geom* |
402 |
Create the window with the specified X window geometry [default |
403 |
80x24]; option -geometry. |
404 |
|
405 |
background: *colour* |
406 |
Use the specified colour as the window's background colour [default |
407 |
White]; option -bg. |
408 |
|
409 |
foreground: *colour* |
410 |
Use the specified colour as the window's foreground colour [default |
411 |
Black]; option -fg. |
412 |
|
413 |
color*n*: *colour* |
414 |
Use the specified colour for the colour value *n*, where 0-7 |
415 |
corresponds to low-intensity (normal) colours and 8-15 corresponds |
416 |
to high-intensity (bold = bright foreground, blink = bright |
417 |
background) colours. The canonical names are as follows: 0=black, |
418 |
1=red, 2=green, 3=yellow, 4=blue, 5=magenta, 6=cyan, 7=white, but |
419 |
the actual colour names used are listed in the COLORS AND GRAPHICS |
420 |
section. |
421 |
|
422 |
Colours higher than 15 cannot be set using resources (yet), but can |
423 |
be changed using an escape command (see rxvt(7)). |
424 |
|
425 |
Colours 16-79 form a standard 4x4x4 colour cube (the same as xterm |
426 |
with 88 colour support). Colours 80-87 are evenly spaces grey steps. |
427 |
|
428 |
colorBD: *colour* |
429 |
colorIT: *colour* |
430 |
Use the specified colour to display bold or italic characters when |
431 |
the foreground colour is the default. If font styles are not |
432 |
available (Compile *styles*) and this option is unset, reverse video |
433 |
is used instead. |
434 |
|
435 |
colorUL: *colour* |
436 |
Use the specified colour to display underlined characters when the |
437 |
foreground colour is the default. |
438 |
|
439 |
colorRV: *colour* |

geometry string WxH+X+Y, in which "W" / "H" specify the |
496 |
horizontal/vertical scale (percent) and "X" / "Y" locate the image |
497 |
centre (percent). A scale of 0 displays the image with tiling. A |
498 |

513 |
|
514 |
font: *fontlist* |
515 |
Select the fonts to be used. This is a comma separated list of font |
516 |
names that are used in turn when trying to display Unicode |
517 |
characters. The first font defines the cell size for characters; |
518 |
other fonts might be smaller, but not larger. A reasonable default |
519 |
font list is always appended to it. option -fn. |
520 |
|
521 |
Each font can either be a standard X11 core font (XLFD) name, with |
522 |
optional prefix "x:" or a Xft font (Compile *xft*), prefixed with |
523 |
"xft:". |
524 |
|
525 |
In addition, each font can be prefixed with additional hints and |
526 |
specifications enclosed in square brackets ("[]"). The only |
527 |
available hint currently is "codeset=codeset-name", and this is only |
528 |
used for Xft fonts. |
529 |
|
530 |
For example, this font resource |
531 |
|
532 |
URxvt*font: 9x15bold,\ |
533 |
-misc-fixed-bold-r-normal--15-140-75-75-c-90-iso10646-1,\ |
534 |
-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-140-75-75-c-90-iso10646-1, \ |
535 |
[codeset=JISX0208]xft:Kochi Gothic:antialias=false, \ |
536 |
xft:Code2000:antialias=false |
537 |
|
538 |
specifies five fonts to be used. The first one is "9x15bold" |
539 |
(actually the iso8859-1 version of the second font), which is the |
540 |
base font (because it is named first) and thus defines the character |
541 |
cell grid to be 9 pixels wide and 15 pixels high. |
542 |
|
543 |
The second font is just used to add additional unicode characters |
544 |
not in the base font, likewise the third, which is unfortunately |
545 |
non-bold, but the bold version of the font does contain less |
546 |
characters, so this is a useful supplement. |
547 |
|
548 |
The third font is an Xft font with aliasing turned off, and the |
549 |
characters are limited to the JIS 0208 codeset (i.e. japanese |
550 |
kanji). The font contains other characters, but we are not |
551 |
interested in them. |
552 |
|
553 |
The last font is a useful catch-all font that supplies most of the |
554 |
remaining unicode characters. |
555 |
|
556 |
boldFont: *fontlist* |
557 |
italicFont: *fontlist* |
558 |
boldItalicFont: *fontlist* |
559 |
The font list to use for displaying bold, *italic* or *bold italic* |
560 |
characters, respectively. |
561 |
|
562 |
If specified and non-empty, then the syntax is the same as for the |
563 |
font-resource, and the given font list will be used as is, which |
564 |
makes it possible to substitute completely different font styles for |
565 |
bold and italic. |
566 |
|
567 |
If unset (the default), a suitable font list will be synthesized by |
568 |
"morphing" the normal text font list into the desired shape. If that |
569 |
is not possible, replacement fonts of the desired shape will be |
570 |
tried. |
571 |
|
572 |
If set, but empty, then this specific style is disabled and the |
573 |
normal text font will being used for the given style. |
574 |
|
575 |
selectstyle: *mode* |
576 |
Set mouse selection style to old which is 2.20, oldword which is |

The locale to use for opening the IM. You can use an "LC_CTYPE" of |
730 |
e.g. "de_DE.UTF-8" for normal text processing but "ja_JP.EUC-JP" for |
731 |
the input extension to be able to input japanese characters while |
732 |
staying in another locale. option -imlocale. |
733 |
|
734 |
imFont: *fontset* |
735 |
Specify the font-set used for XIM styles "OverTheSpot" or |
736 |
"OffTheSpot". It must be a standard X font set (XLFD patterns |
737 |

738 |
font lists used in rxvt. The default will be set-up to chose *any* |
739 |
suitable found found, preferably one or two pixels differing in size |

746 |
|
747 |
insecure: *boolean* |
748 |
Enables "insecure" mode. Rxvt-unicode offers some escape sequences |
749 |
that echo arbitrary strings like the icon name or the locale. This |
750 |
could be abused if somebody gets 8-bit-clean access to your display, |
751 |
whether throuh a mail client displaying mail bodies unfiltered or |
752 |
though write(1). Therefore, these sequences are disabled by default. |
753 |
(Note that other terminals, including xterm, have these sequences |
754 |
enabled by default). You can enable them by setting this boolean |
755 |
resource or specifying -insecure as an option. At the moment, this |
756 |
enabled display-answer, locale, findfont, icon label and window |
757 |
title requests as well as dynamic menubar dispatch. |
758 |
|
759 |
modifier: *modifier* |
760 |
Set the key to be interpreted as the Meta key to: alt, meta, hyper, |
761 |
super, mod1, mod2, mod3, mod4, mod5; option -mod. |
762 |
|
763 |
answerbackString: *string* |
764 |
Specify the reply rxvt-unicode sends to the shell when an ENQ |
765 |
(control-E) character is passed through. It may contain escape |
766 |
values as described in the entry on keysym following. |
767 |
|
768 |
secondaryScreen: *bool* |
769 |
Turn on/off secondary screen (default enabled). |
770 |
|
771 |
secondaryScroll: *bool* |
772 |
Turn on/off secondary screen scroll (default enabled). If the this |
773 |
option is enabled, scrolls on the secondary screen will change the |
774 |
scrollback buffer and switching to/from the secondary screen will |
775 |
instead scroll the screen up. |
776 |
|
777 |
keysym.*sym*: *string* |
778 |
Compile *frills*: Associate *string* with keysym *sym*. The |
779 |
intervening resource name keysym. cannot be omitted. |
780 |
|
781 |
The format of *sym* is "*(modifiers-)key*", where *modifiers* can be |
782 |
any combination of ISOLevel3, AppKeypad, Control, NumLock, Shift, |
783 |
Meta, Lock, Mod1, Mod2, Mod3, Mod4, Mod5, and the abbreviated I, K, |
784 |
C, N, S, M, A, L, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. |
785 |
|
786 |
The NumLock, Meta and ISOLevel3 modifiers are usually aliased to |
787 |
whatever modifier the NumLock key, Meta/Alt keys or ISO Level3 |
788 |
Shift/AltGr keys are being mapped. AppKeypad is a synthetic modifier |
789 |
mapped to the current application keymap mode state. |
790 |
|
791 |
The spellings of *key* can be obtained by using xev(1) command or |
792 |
searching keysym macros from /usr/X11R6/include/X11/keysymdef.h and |
793 |
omitting the prefix XK_. Alternatively you can specify *key* by its |
794 |
hex keysym value (0x0000 - 0xFFFF). Note that the lookup of *sym*s |
795 |
is not performed in an exact manner; however, the closest match is |
796 |
assured. |
797 |
|
798 |
*string* may contain escape values ("\a": bell, "\b": backspace, |
799 |
"\e", "\E": escape, "\n": newline, "\r": carriage return, "\t": tab, |
800 |
"\000": octal number) or verbatim control characters ("^?": delete, |
801 |
"^@": null, "^A" ...) and may be enclosed with double quotes so that |
802 |
it can start or end with whitespace. |
803 |
|
804 |
Please note that you need to double the "\" when using |
805 |
"--enable-xgetdefault", as X itself does it's own de-escaping (you |
806 |
can use "\033" instead of "\e" (and so on), which will work with |
807 |
both Xt and rxvt's own processing). |
808 |
|
809 |
You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a |
810 |
*string* with pattern list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX, where the delimeter |
811 |
`/' should be a character not used by the strings. |
812 |
|
813 |
Its usage can be demonstrated by an example: |
814 |
|
815 |
URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<M-C-|abc|> |
816 |
|
817 |
The above line is equivalent to the following three lines: |
818 |
|
819 |
URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \033<M-C-a> |
820 |
URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x62: \033<M-C-b> |
821 |
URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x63: \033<M-C-c> |
822 |
|
823 |
If *string* takes the form of "command:STRING", the specified STRING |
824 |
is interpreted and executed as rxvt's control sequence. For example |
825 |
the following means "change the current locale to "zh_CN.GBK" when |
826 |
Control-Meta-c is being pressed": |
827 |
|
828 |
URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007 |
829 |
|
830 |
The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to |
831 |
the fonts "suxuseuro" and "9x15bold", so you can have some limited |
832 |
font-switching at runtime: |
833 |
|
834 |
URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007 |
835 |
URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007 |
836 |
|
837 |
Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see rxvt(7) for more |
838 |
info): |
839 |
|
840 |
URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t |
841 |
URxvt.keysym.M-C-4: command:\033[8;48;110t |
842 |
|
843 |
THE SCROLLBAR |
844 |
Lines of text that scroll off the top of the rxvt window (resource: |
845 |
saveLines) and can be scrolled back using the scrollbar or by |
846 |
keystrokes. The normal rxvt scrollbar has arrows and its behaviour is |
847 |
fairly intuitive. The xterm-scrollbar is without arrows and its |
848 |
behaviour mimics that of *xterm* |
849 |
|
850 |
Scroll down with Button1 (xterm-scrollbar) or Shift-Next. Scroll up with |
851 |
Button3 (xterm-scrollbar) or Shift-Prior. Continuous scroll with |

854 |
MOUSE REPORTING |
855 |
To temporarily override mouse reporting, for either the scrollbar or the |
856 |
normal text selection/insertion, hold either the Shift or the Meta (Alt) |
857 |
key while performing the desired mouse action. |
858 |
|
859 |
If mouse reporting mode is active, the normal scrollbar actions are |
860 |
disabled -- on the assumption that we are using a fullscreen |
861 |
application. Instead, pressing Button1 and Button3 sends ESC [ 6 ~ |
862 |
(Next) and ESC [ 5 ~ (Prior), respectively. Similarly, clicking on the |
863 |
up and down arrows sends ESC [ A (Up) and ESC [ B (Down), respectively. |
864 |
|
865 |
TEXT SELECTION AND INSERTION |
866 |
The behaviour of text selection and insertion mechanism is similar to |
867 |
*xterm*(1). |
868 |
|
869 |
Selection: |
870 |
Left click at the beginning of the region, drag to the end of the |
871 |
region and release; Right click to extend the marked region; Left |
872 |
double-click to select a word; Left triple-click to select the |
873 |
entire logical line (which can span multiple screen lines), unless |
874 |
modified by resource tripleclickwords. |
875 |
|
876 |
Starting a selection while pressing the Meta key (or Meta+Ctrl keys) |
877 |
(Compile: *frills*) will create a rectangular selection instead of a |
878 |
normal one. |
879 |
|
880 |
Insertion: |
881 |
Pressing and releasing the Middle mouse button (or Shift-Insert) in |
882 |
an rxvt window causes the current text selection to be inserted as |
883 |
if it had been typed on the keyboard. |
884 |
|
885 |
CHANGING FONTS |
886 |
Changing fonts (or font sizes, respectively) via the keypad is not yet |
887 |
supported in rxvt-unicode. Bug me if you need this. |
888 |
|
889 |
You can, however, switch fonts at runtime using escape sequences (and |
890 |
therefore using the menubar), e.g.: |
891 |
|
892 |
printf '\e]701;%s\007' "9x15bold,xft:Kochi Gothic" |
893 |
|
894 |
rxvt-unicode will automatically re-apply these fonts to the output so |
895 |
far. |
896 |
|
897 |
ISO 14755 SUPPORT |
898 |
ISO 14755 is a standard for entering and viewing unicode characters and |
899 |
character codes using the keyboard. It consists of 4 parts. The first |
900 |
part is available rxvt-unicode has been compiled with "--enable-frills", |
901 |
the rest is available when rxvt-unicode was compiled with |
902 |
"--enable-iso14755". |
903 |
|
904 |
* 5.1: Basic method |
905 |
This allows you to enter unicode characters using their hexcode. |
906 |
|
907 |
Start by pressing and holding both "Control" and "Shift", then enter |
908 |
hex-digits (between one and six). Releasing "Control" and "Shift" |
909 |
will commit the character as if it were typed directly. While |
910 |
holding down "Control" and "Shift" you can also enter multiple |
911 |
characters by pressing "Space", which will commit the current |
912 |
character and lets you start a new one. |
913 |
|
914 |
As an example of use, imagine a business card with a japanese e-mail |
915 |
address, which you cannot type. Fortunately, the card has the e-mail |
916 |
address printed as hexcodes, e.g. "671d 65e5". You can enter this |
917 |
easily by pressing "Control" and "Shift", followed by |
918 |
"6-7-1-D-SPACE-6-5-E-5", followed by releasing the modifier keys. |
919 |
|
920 |
* 5.2: Keyboard symbols entry method |
921 |
This mode lets you input characters representing the keycap symbols |
922 |
of your keyboard, if representable in the current locale encoding. |
923 |
|
924 |
Start by pressing "Control" and "Shift" together, then releasing |
925 |
them. The next special key (cursor keys, home etc.) you enter will |
926 |
not invoke it's usual function but instead will insert the |
927 |
corresponding keycap symbol. The symbol will only be entered when |
928 |
the key has been released, otherwise pressing e.g. "Shift" would |
929 |
enter the symbol for "ISO Level 2 Switch", although your intention |
930 |
might have been to enter a reverse tab (Shift-Tab). |
931 |
|
932 |
* 5.3: Screen-selection entry method |
933 |
While this is implemented already (it's basically the selection |
934 |
mechanism), it could be extended by displaying a unicode character |
935 |
map. |
936 |
|
937 |
* 5.4: Feedback method for identifying displayed characters for later |
938 |
input |
939 |
This method lets you display the unicode character code associated |
940 |
with characters already displayed. |
941 |
|
942 |
You enter this mode by holding down "Control" and "Shift" together, |
943 |
then pressing and holding the left mouse button and moving around. |
944 |
The unicode hex code(s) (it might be a combining character) of the |
945 |
character under the pointer is displayed until you release "Control" |
946 |
and "Shift". |
947 |
|
948 |
In addition to the hex codes it will display the font used to draw |
949 |
this character - due to implementation reasons, characters combined |
950 |
with combining characters, line drawing characters and unknown |
951 |
characters will always be drawn using the built-in support font. |
952 |
|
953 |
With respect to conformance, rxvt-unicode is supposed to be compliant to |
954 |
both scenario A and B of ISO 14755, including part 5.2. |
955 |
|
956 |
LOGIN STAMP |
957 |
rxvt tries to write an entry into the *utmp*(5) file so that it can be |
958 |
seen via the *who(1)* command, and can accept messages. To allow this |
959 |
feature, rxvt may need to be installed setuid root on some systems or |
960 |
setgid to root or to some other group on others. |
961 |
|
962 |
COLORS AND GRAPHICS |
963 |
In addition to the default foreground and background colours, rxvt can |
964 |
display up to 16 colours (8 ANSI colours plus high-intensity bold/blink |
965 |
versions of the same). Here is a list of the colours with their rgb.txt |
966 |
names. |
967 |
|
968 |
color0 (black) = Black |
969 |
color1 (red) = Red3 |
970 |
color2 (green) = Green3 |
971 |
color3 (yellow) = Yellow3 |
972 |
color4 (blue) = Blue3 |
973 |
color5 (magenta) = Magenta3 |
974 |
color6 (cyan) = Cyan3 |
975 |
color7 (white) = AntiqueWhite |
976 |
color8 (bright black) = Grey25 |
977 |
color9 (bright red) = Red |
978 |
color10 (bright green) = Green |
979 |
color11 (bright yellow) = Yellow |
980 |
color12 (bright blue) = Blue |
981 |
color13 (bright magenta) = Magenta |
982 |
color14 (bright cyan) = Cyan |
983 |
color15 (bright white) = White |
984 |
foreground = Black |
985 |
background = White |
986 |
|
987 |
It is also possible to specify the colour values of foreground, |
988 |
background, cursorColor, cursorColor2, colorBD, colorUL as a number |
989 |
0-15, as a convenient shorthand to reference the colour name of |
990 |
color0-color15. |
991 |
|
992 |
Note that -rv ("reverseVideo: True") simulates reverse video by always |
993 |
swapping the foreground/background colours. This is in contrast to |
994 |
*xterm*(1) where the colours are only swapped if they have not otherwise |
995 |
been specified. For example, |
996 |
|
997 |
rxvt -fg Black -bg White -rv |
998 |
would yield White on Black, while on *xterm*(1) it would yield Black |
999 |
on White. |
1000 |
|
1001 |
ENVIRONMENT |
1002 |
rxvt sets and/or uses the following environment variables: |
1003 |
|
1004 |
TERM |
1005 |
Normally set to "rxvt-unicode", unless overwritten at configure |
1006 |
time, via resources or on the commandline. |
1007 |
|
1008 |
COLORTERM |
1009 |
Either "rxvt", "rxvt-xpm", depending on wether rxvt was compiled |
1010 |
with XPM support, and optionally with the added extension "-mono" to |
1011 |
indicate that rxvt-unicode runs on a monochrome screen. |
1012 |
|
1013 |
COLORFGBG |
1014 |
Set to a string of the form "fg;bg" or "fg;xpm;bg", where "fg" is |
1015 |
the colour code used as default foreground/text colour (or the |
1016 |
string "default" to indicate that the default-colour escape sequence |
1017 |
is to be used), "bg" is the colour code used as default background |
1018 |
colour (or the string "default"), and "xpm" is the string "default" |
1019 |
if rxvt was compiled with XPM support. Libraries like "ncurses" and |
1020 |
"slang" can (and do) use this information to optimize screen output. |
1021 |
|
1022 |
WINDOWID |
1023 |
Set to the (decimal) X Window ID of the rxvt window (the toplevel |
1024 |
window, which usually has subwindows for the scrollbar, the terminal |
1025 |
window and so on). |
1026 |
|
1027 |
TERMINFO |
1028 |
Set to the terminfo directory iff rxvt was configured with |
1029 |
"--with-terminfo=PATH". |
1030 |
|
1031 |
DISPLAY |
1032 |
Used by rxvt to connect to the display and set to the correct |
1033 |
display in it's child processes. |
1034 |
|
1035 |
SHELL |
1036 |
The shell to be used for command execution, defaults to "/bin/sh". |
1037 |
|
1038 |
RXVTPATH |
1039 |
The path where rxvt looks for support files such as menu and xpm |
1040 |
files. |
1041 |
|
1042 |
PATH |
1043 |
Used in the same way as "RXVTPATH". |
1044 |
|
1045 |
RXVT_SOCKET |
1046 |
The unix domain socket path used by rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1). |
1047 |
|
1048 |
Default "$HOME/.rxvt-unicode-<nodename". |
1049 |
|
1050 |
HOME |
1051 |
Used to locate the default directory for the unix domain socket for |
1052 |
daemon communications and to locate various resource files (such as |
1053 |
".Xdefaults") |
1054 |
|
1055 |
XAPPLRESDIR |
1056 |
Directory where various X resource files are being located. |
1057 |
|
1058 |
XENVIRONMENT |
1059 |
If set and accessible, gives the name of a X resource file to be |
1060 |
loaded by rxvt. |
1061 |
|
1062 |
