365 | used or not. |
|
|
366 | |
|
|
367 | Here is a short Gtk2-perl snippet that illustrates how this option |
|
|
368 | can be used (a longer example is in doc/embed): |
|
|
369 | |
|
|
370 | my $rxvt = new Gtk2::Socket; |
|
|
371 | $rxvt->signal_connect_after (realize => sub { |
|
|
372 | my $xid = $_[0]->window->get_xid; |
|
|
373 | system "rxvt -embed $xid &"; |
|
|
374 | }); |
|
|
375 | |
|
|
376 | -pty-fd *file descriptor* |
|
|
377 | Tells rxvt NOT to execute any commands or create a new pty/tty pair |
|
|
378 | but instead use the given filehandle as the tty master. This is |
|
|
379 | useful if you want to drive rxvt as a generic terminal emulator |
|
|
380 | without having to run a program within it. |
|
|
381 | |
|
|
382 | If this switch is given, rxvt will not create any utmp/wtmp entries |
|
|
383 | and will not tinker with pty/tty permissions - you have to do that |
|
|
384 | yourself if you want that. |
|
|
385 | |
|
|
386 | As an extremely special case, specifying -1 will completely suppress |
|
|
387 | pty/tty operations. |
|
|
388 | |
|
|
389 | Here is a example in perl that illustrates how this option can be |
|
|
390 | used (a longer example is in doc/pty-fd): |
|
|
391 | |
|
|
392 | use IO::Pty; |
|
|
393 | use Fcntl; |
|
|
394 | |
|
|
395 | my $pty = new IO::Pty; |
|
|
396 | fcntl $pty, F_SETFD, 0; # clear close-on-exec |
|
|
397 | system "rxvt -pty-fd " . (fileno $pty) . "&"; |
|
|
398 | close $pty; |
|
|
399 | |
|
|
400 | # now communicate with rxvt |
|
|
401 | my $slave = $pty->slave; |

905 | If *string* takes the form "perl:STRING", then the specified STRING |
|
|
906 | is passed to the "on_keyboard_command" perl handler. See the |
|
|
907 | rxvtperl(3) manpage. For example, the selection extension (activated |
|
|
908 | via "rxvt -pe selection") listens for "selection:rot13" events: |
|
|
909 | |
|
|
910 | URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: perl:selection:rot13 |
|
|
911 | |
|
|
912 | Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key |
|
|
913 | mapping will match if at *at least* the specified identifiers are |
|
|
914 | being set, and no other key mappings with those and more bits are |
|
|
915 | being defined. That means that defining a key map for "a" will |
|
|
916 | automatically provide definitions for "Meta-a", "Shift-a" and so on, |
|
|
917 | unless some of those are defined mappings themselves. |
|
|
918 | |
|
|
919 | Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example |
|
|
920 | if you overwrite the "Insert" key you will disable rxvt's |
|
|
921 | "Shift-Insert" mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into |
|
|
922 | the user-defined keymap using the "builtin:" replacement: |
|
|
923 | |
|
|
924 | URxvt.keysym.Insert: <my insert key sequence> |
|
|
925 | URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin: |
|
|
926 | |
|
|
927 | The first line defines a mapping for "Insert" and *any* combination |
|
|
928 | of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for |
|
|
929 | "Shift-Insert". |
