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

943 Colon-separated list(s) of perl extension scripts to use in this

945 directories, loaded if necessary, and bound to the current terminal
946 instance. If this resource is empty or missing, then the perl
947 interpreter will not be initialized. The idea behind two options is
948 that perl-ext-common will be used for extensions that should be
949 available to all instances, while perl-ext is used for specific
