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

393 resources, rxvt recognizes two class names: XTerm and URxvt. The class

900 If *string* takes the form "perl:STRING", then the specified STRING
901 is passed to the "on_keyboard_command" perl handler. See the

903 (activated via "urxvt -pe selection") listens for "selection:rot13"
904 events:

908 Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key
909 mapping will match if at *at least* the specified identifiers are
910 being set, and no other key mappings with those and more bits are
911 being defined. That means that defining a key map for "a" will
912 automatically provide definitions for "Meta-a", "Shift-a" and so on,
913 unless some of those are defined mappings themselves.
914
915 Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example
916 if you overwrite the "Insert" key you will disable urxvt's
917 "Shift-Insert" mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into
918 the user-defined keymap using the "builtin:" replacement:
919
920 URxvt.keysym.Insert: <my insert key sequence>
921 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin:

925 "Shift-Insert".

944
945 Extension names can be prefixed with a "-" sign to prohibit using
946 them. This can be useful to selectively disable some extensions
947 loaded by default, or specified via the "perl-ext-common" resource.
948 For example, "default,-selection" will use all the default extension
949 except "selection".
950
951 Extension names can also be followed by an argument in angle
952 brackets (e.g. "searchable-scrollback<M-s>", which binds the hotkey
953 for searchable scorllback to Alt/Meta-s). Mentioning the same
954 extension multiple times with different arguments will pass multiple
955 arguments to the extension.
956
957 Each extension is looked up in the library directories, loaded if
958 necessary, and bound to the current terminal instance.

960 If both of these resources are the empty string, then the perl
