356 the user; resource hold.
357
358 -keysym.*sym* *string*
359 Remap a key symbol. See resource keysym.
360
361 -embed *windowid*
362 Tells rxvt to embed it's windows into an already-existing window,
363 which enables applications to easily embed a terminal.
364
365 Right now, rxvt will first unmap/map the specified window, so it
366 shouldn't be a top-level window. rxvt will also reconfigure it quite
367 a bit, so don't expect it to keep some specific state. It's best to
368 create an extra subwindow for rxvt and leave it alone.
369
370 The window will not be destroyed when rxvt exits.
371
372 It might be useful to know that rxvt will not close file descriptors
373 passed to it (except for stdin/out/err, of course), so you can use
374 file descriptors to communicate with the programs within the
375 terminal. This works regardless of wether the "-embed" option was
376 used or not.
377
378 Here is a short Gtk2-perl snippet that illustrates how this option
379 can be used (a longer example is in doc/embed):
380
381 my $rxvt = new Gtk2::Socket;
382 $rxvt->signal_connect_after (realize => sub {
383 my $xid = $_[0]->window->get_xid;
384 system "rxvt -embed $xid &";
385 });
386
387 -pty-fd *file descriptor*
388 Tells rxvt NOT to execute any commands or create a new pty/tty pair
389 but instead use the given filehandle as the tty master. This is
390 useful if you want to drive rxvt as a generic terminal emulator
391 without having to run a program within it.
392
393 If this switch is given, rxvt will not create any utmp/wtmp entries
394 and will not tinker with pty/tty permissions - you have to do that
395 yourself if you want that.
396
397 As an extremely special case, specifying -1 will completely suppress
398 pty/tty operations.
399
400 Here is a example in perl that illustrates how this option can be
401 used (a longer example is in doc/pty-fd):
402
403 use IO::Pty;
404 use Fcntl;
405
406 my $pty = new IO::Pty;
407 fcntl $pty, F_SETFD, 0; # clear close-on-exec
408 system "rxvt -pty-fd " . (fileno $pty) . "&";
409 close $pty;
410
411 # now communicate with rxvt
412 my $slave = $pty->slave;
413 while (<$slave>) { print $slave "got <$_>\n" }

322 422
323 There are two different methods that rxvt can use to get the Xresource
324 data: using the X libraries (Xrm*-functions) or internal Xresources
325 reader (~/.Xdefaults). For the first method (ie. rxvt -h lists
326 XGetDefaults), you can set and change the resources using X11 tools like 423 You can set and change the resources using X11 tools like xrdb. Many

426 later settings overwriting earlier ones:

330 If compiled with internal Xresources support (i.e. rxvt -h lists 428 1. system-wide app-defaults file, either locale-dependent OR global
331 .Xdefaults) then rxvt accepts application defaults set in 429 2. app-defaults file in $XAPPLRESDIR

748 Its usage can be demonstrated by an example: 901 Its usage can be demonstrated by an example:
749 902
750 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\e<M-C-|abc|> 903 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<M-C-|abc|>
751 904
752 The above line is equivalent to the following three lines: 905 The above line is equivalent to the following three lines:
753 906
754 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \e<M-C-a> 907 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \033<M-C-a>

757 910
758 If *string* takes the form of "proto:STRING", the specified STRING 911 If *string* takes the form of "command:STRING", the specified STRING
759 is interpreted and executed as rxvt's control sequence. For example 912 is interpreted and executed as rxvt's control sequence. For example
760 the following means "change the current locale to "zh_CN.GBK" when 913 the following means "change the current locale to "zh_CN.GBK" when
761 Control-Meta-c is being pressed": 914 Control-Meta-c is being pressed":

917
918 If *string* takes the form "perl:STRING", then the specified STRING
919 is passed to the "on_keyboard_command" perl handler. See the
920 rxvtperl(3) manpage. For example, the selection extension (activated
921 via "rxvt -pe selection") listens for "selection:rot13" events:
922
923 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: perl:selection:rot13
924
925 Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key
926 mapping will match if at *at least* the specified identifiers are
927 being set, and no other key mappings with those and more bits are
928 being defined. That means that defining a key map for "a" will
929 automatically provide definitions for "Meta-a", "Shift-a" and so on,
930 unless some of those are defined mappings themselves.
931
932 Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example
933 if you overwrite the "Insert" key you will disable rxvt's
934 "Shift-Insert" mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into
935 the user-defined keymap using the "builtin:" replacement:
936
937 URxvt.keysym.Insert: <my insert key sequence>
938 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin:
939
940 The first line defines a mapping for "Insert" and *any* combination
941 of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
942 "Shift-Insert".
764 943
765 The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to 944 The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to
766 the fonts "suxuseuro" and "9x15bold", so you cna have some limited 945 the fonts "suxuseuro" and "9x15bold", so you can have some limited

958 perl-ext: *string*
959 Comma-separated list(s) of perl extension scripts (default:
960 "default") to use in this terminal instance; option -pe.
961
962 Extension names can be prefixed with a "-" sign to prohibit using
963 them. This can be useful to selectively disable some extensions
964 loaded by default, or specified via the "perl-ext-common" resource.
965 For example, "default,-selection" will use all the default extension
966 except "selection".
967
968 Extension names can also be followed by an argument in angle
969 brackets (e.g. "searchable-scrollback<M-s>", which binds the hotkey
970 for searchable scorllback to Alt/Meta-s). Mentioning the same
971 extension multiple times with different arguments will pass multiple
972 arguments to the extension.
973
974 Each extension is looked up in the library directories, loaded if
975 necessary, and bound to the current terminal instance.
976
977 If both of these resources are the empty string, then the perl
978 interpreter will not be initialized. The idea behind two options is
979 that perl-ext-common will be used for extensions that should be
980 available to all instances, while perl-ext is used for specific
981 instances.

1180 In addition to the colours defined above, rxvt offers an additional 72
1181 colours. The first 64 of those (with indices 16 to 79) consist of a
1182 4*4*4 RGB colour cube (i.e. *index = r * 16 + g * 4 + b + 16*), followed
1183 by 8 additional shades of gray (with indices 80 to 87).
1184
1185 Together, all those colours implement the 88 colour xterm colours. Only
1186 the first 16 can be changed using resources currently, the rest can only
1187 be changed via command sequences ("escape codes").

925 swapping the foreground/background colours. This is in contrast to 1190 swapping the foreground/background colours. This is in contrast to

931 on White. 1196 on White.

1198 ALPHA CHANNEL SUPPORT
1199 If Xft support has been compiled in and as long as Xft/Xrender/X don't
1200 get their act together, rxvt-unicode will support
1201 "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" (recommended, but MUST have 4
1202 digits/component) colour specifications, in addition to the ones
1203 provided by X, where the additional A component specifies opacity
1204 (alpha) values. The minimum value of 0 is completely transparent). You
1205 can also prefix any color with "[a]", where "a" is on to four hex digits
1206 specifiying the opacity value.
1207
1208 You probably need to specify "-depth 32", too, and have the luck that
1209 your X-server uses ARGB pixel layout, as X is far from just supporting
1210 ARGB visuals out of the box, and rxvt-unicode just fudges around.
1211
1212 For example, the following selects an almost completely transparent red
1213 background, and an almost opaque pink foreground:
1214
1215 rxvt -depth 32 -bg rgba:0000/0000/0000/2222 -fg "[e]pink"
1216
1217 *Please note that transparency of any kind if completely unsupported by
1218 the author. Don't bug him with installation questions!*

933ENVIRONMENT 1220ENVIRONMENT
934 rxvt sets the environment variables TERM, COLORTERM and COLORFGBG. The 1221 rxvt sets and/or uses the following environment variables:
935 environment variable WINDOWID is set to the X window id number of the 1222
936 rxvt window and it also uses and sets the environment variable DISPLAY 1223 TERM
937 to specify which display terminal to use. rxvt uses the environment 1224 Normally set to "rxvt-unicode", unless overwritten at configure
938 variables RXVTPATH and PATH to find XPM files. 1225 time, via resources or on the commandline.
1226
1227 COLORTERM
1228 Either "rxvt", "rxvt-xpm", depending on wether rxvt was compiled
1229 with XPM support, and optionally with the added extension "-mono" to
1230 indicate that rxvt-unicode runs on a monochrome screen.
1231
1232 COLORFGBG
1233 Set to a string of the form "fg;bg" or "fg;xpm;bg", where "fg" is
1234 the colour code used as default foreground/text colour (or the
1235 string "default" to indicate that the default-colour escape sequence
1236 is to be used), "bg" is the colour code used as default background
1237 colour (or the string "default"), and "xpm" is the string "default"
1238 if rxvt was compiled with XPM support. Libraries like "ncurses" and
1239 "slang" can (and do) use this information to optimize screen output.
1240
1241 WINDOWID
1242 Set to the (decimal) X Window ID of the rxvt window (the toplevel
1243 window, which usually has subwindows for the scrollbar, the terminal
1244 window and so on).
1245
1246 TERMINFO
1247 Set to the terminfo directory iff rxvt was configured with
1248 "--with-terminfo=PATH".
1249
1250 DISPLAY
1251 Used by rxvt to connect to the display and set to the correct
1252 display in it's child processes.
1253
1254 SHELL
1255 The shell to be used for command execution, defaults to "/bin/sh".
1256
1257 RXVT_SOCKET
1258 The unix domain socket path used by rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1).
1259
1260 Default $HOME/.rxvt-unicode-*<nodename*.
1261
1262 HOME
1263 Used to locate the default directory for the unix domain socket for
1264 daemon communications and to locate various resource files (such as
1265 ".Xdefaults")
1266
1267 XAPPLRESDIR
1268 Directory where various X resource files are being located.
1269
1270 XENVIRONMENT
1271 If set and accessible, gives the name of a X resource file to be
1272 loaded by rxvt.
