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

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 |

329 | |
420 | |
330 | If compiled with internal Xresources support (i.e. rxvt -h lists |
421 | 1. system-wide app-defaults file, either locale-dependent OR global |
331 | .Xdefaults) then rxvt accepts application defaults set in |
422 | 2. app-defaults file in $XAPPLRESDIR |
332 | XAPPLOADDIR/URxvt (compile-time defined: usually |
423 | 3. RESOURCE_MANAGER property on root-window OR $HOME/.Xdefaults |

427 | Note that when reading X resources, rxvt recognizes two class names: |
337 | to be easily configured, while the class name URxvt allows resources |
428 | Rxvt and URxvt. The class name Rxvt allows resources common to both rxvt |
338 | unique to rxvt, notably colours and key-handling, to be shared between |
429 | and the original *rxvt* to be easily configured, while the class name |
|
|
430 | URxvt allows resources unique to rxvt, to be shared between different |

895 | If *string* takes the form "perl:STRING", then the specified STRING |
|
|
896 | is passed to the "on_keyboard_command" perl handler. See the |
|
|
897 | rxvtperl(3) manpage. For example, the selection extension (activated |

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

934 | perl-ext-common: *string* |
|
|
935 | perl-ext: *string* |
|
|
936 | Comma-separated list(s) of perl extension scripts (default: |
|
|
937 | "default") to use in this terminal instance; option -pe. |
|
|
938 | |
|
|
939 | Extension names can be prefixed with a "-" sign to prohibit using |
|
|
940 | them. This can be useful to selectively disable some extensions |
|
|
941 | loaded by default, or specified via the "perl-ext-common" resource. |
|
|
942 | For example, "default,-selection" will use all the default extension |
|
|
943 | except "selection". |
|
|
944 | |
|
|
945 | Extension names can also be followed by an argument in angle |
|
|
946 | brackets (e.g. "searchable-scrollback<M-s>", which binds the hotkey |
|
|
947 | for searchable scorllback to Alt/Meta-s). Mentioning the same |
|
|
948 | extension multiple times with different arguments will pass multiple |
|
|
949 | arguments to the extension. |
|
|
950 | |
|
|
951 | Each extension is looked up in the library directories, loaded if |
|
|
952 | necessary, and bound to the current terminal instance. |
|
|
953 | |
|
|
954 | If both of these resources are the empty string, then the perl |
|
|
955 | interpreter will not be initialized. The idea behind two options is |
|
|
956 | that perl-ext-common will be used for extensions that should be |
|
|
957 | available to all instances, while perl-ext is used for specific |
|
|
958 | instances. |
|
|
959 | |
|
|
960 | perl-eval: *string* |
|
|
961 | Perl code to be evaluated when all extensions have been registered. |
|
|
962 | See the rxvtperl(3) manpage. Due to security reasons, this resource |
|
|
963 | will be ignored when running setuid/setgid. |
|
|
964 | |
|
|
965 | perl-lib: *path* |
|
|
966 | Colon-separated list of additional directories that hold extension |
|
|
967 | scripts. When looking for extensions specified by the "perl" |
|
|
968 | resource, rxvt will first look in these directories and then in |
|
|
969 | /opt/rxvt/lib/urxvt/perl/. Due to security reasons, this resource |
|
|
970 | will be ignored when running setuid/setgid. |

982 | searchable-scrollback: *keysym* |
|
|
983 | Sets the hotkey that starts the incremental scrollback buffer search |
|
|
984 | (default: "M-s"). |
|
|
985 | |
|
|
986 | urlLauncher: *string* |
|
|
987 | Specifies the program to be started with a URL argument. Used by the |
|
|
988 | "selection-popup" and "mark-urls" perl extensions. |
|
|
989 | |

994 | override-redirect: *boolean* |
|
|
995 | Compile *frills*: Sets override-redirect for the terminal window, |
|
|
996 | making it almost invisible to window managers; option |

933 | ENVIRONMENT |
1163 | ENVIRONMENT |
934 | rxvt sets the environment variables TERM, COLORTERM and COLORFGBG. The |
1164 | rxvt sets and/or uses the following environment variables: |
935 | environment variable WINDOWID is set to the X window id number of the |
1165 | |
936 | rxvt window and it also uses and sets the environment variable DISPLAY |
1166 | TERM |
937 | to specify which display terminal to use. rxvt uses the environment |
1167 | Normally set to "rxvt-unicode", unless overwritten at configure |
938 | variables RXVTPATH and PATH to find XPM files. |
1168 | time, via resources or on the commandline. |
|
|
1169 | |
|
|
1170 | COLORTERM |
|
|
1171 | Either "rxvt", "rxvt-xpm", depending on wether rxvt was compiled |
|
|
1172 | with XPM support, and optionally with the added extension "-mono" to |
|
|
1173 | indicate that rxvt-unicode runs on a monochrome screen. |
|
|
1174 | |
|
|
1175 | COLORFGBG |
|
|
1176 | Set to a string of the form "fg;bg" or "fg;xpm;bg", where "fg" is |
|
|
1177 | the colour code used as default foreground/text colour (or the |
|
|
1178 | string "default" to indicate that the default-colour escape sequence |
|
|
1179 | is to be used), "bg" is the colour code used as default background |
|
|
1180 | colour (or the string "default"), and "xpm" is the string "default" |
|
|
1181 | if rxvt was compiled with XPM support. Libraries like "ncurses" and |
|
|
1182 | "slang" can (and do) use this information to optimize screen output. |
|
|
1183 | |
|
|
1184 | WINDOWID |
|
|
1185 | Set to the (decimal) X Window ID of the rxvt window (the toplevel |
|
|
1186 | window, which usually has subwindows for the scrollbar, the terminal |
|
|
1187 | window and so on). |
|
|
1188 | |
|
|
1189 | TERMINFO |
|
|
1190 | Set to the terminfo directory iff rxvt was configured with |
|

1191 | "--with-terminfo=PATH". |
|
|
1192 | |
|
|
1193 | DISPLAY |
|
|
1194 | Used by rxvt to connect to the display and set to the correct |
|
