1--enable-everything 1--enable-everything
2 add support for all enable options marked with an asterisk listed 2 add support for all non-multichoice options listed in "./configure
3 in "./configure --help". Note that unlike other enable options this 3 --help". Note that unlike other enable options this is order
4 is order dependant. You can specify this and then disable options 4 dependant. You can specify this and then disable options which
5 which this enables by _following_ this with the appropriate 5 this enables by _following_ this with the appropriate commands.
6 commands. 6--enable-xft
7--enable-languages 7 add support for xft (anti-aliases, among others) fonts. xft fonts are
8 add support for languages which require multiple character glyphs 8 slower and require lots of memory, but as long as you don't use them,
9 to display. 9 you don't pay for them.
10--with-encoding=NAME 10--with-codesets=NAME,...
11 set the default encoding for multi-char glyph languages to NAME. 11 compile in support for additional codeset groups:
12 Options are: "eucj" EUC Japanese encoding; "sjis" Shift JIS encoding; 12 jp common japanese encodings
13 "big5" BIG5 encoding; "gb" GB encoding; "kr" EUC Korean encoding; 13 jp_ext rarely used but big japanese encodings
14 "noenc" no encoding. This option requires --enable-languages to 14 kr korean encodings
15 also be specified. 15 cn common chinese encodings
16 cn_ext rarely used but very big chinese encodigs
17 all all of the above
18--enable-xim
19 add support for XIM (X Input Method) protocol. This allows using
20 alternative input methods (e.g. kinput2) and will also correctly
21 set up the input for people using dead keys or compose keys.
22--enable-unicode3
23 enable support for unicode codepoints above 65535 (the basic
24 multilingual page). This increases storage requirements per
25 character from 2 to 4 bytes. X11 fonts do not yet support these
26 extra characters, but Xft does.
27--enable-combining
28 enable automatic composition of combining characters into
29 composite characters. This is required for proper viewing of text
30 where accents are encoded as seperate unicode characters. This is
31 done by using precomposited characters when available or creating
32 new pseudo-characters when no precomposed form exists. Without
33 --enable-unicode3, the number of additional precomposed characters
34 is rather limited (2048, if this is full, rxvt will use the
35 private use area, extending the number of combinations to
36 8448). With --enable-unicode3, no practical limit exists. This
37 will also enable storage of characters >16bit. They currently
38 won't display properly, but they will paste correctly.
39 The combining table also contains entries for arabic presentation
40 forms, but these are not currently used. Bug me if you want
41 these to be used.
42--enable-fallback(=CLASS)
43 when reading resource settings, also read settings for class CLASS
44 (default: Rxvt). To disable resource fallback use --disable-fallback.
45--with-res-name=NAME
46 use the given name (default: urxvt) as default application name
47 when reading resources. Specify --with-res-name=rxvt to replace
48 rxvt.
49--with-res-class=CLASS
50 use the given class (default: URxvt) as default application class
51 when reading resources. Specify --with-res-class=Rxvt to replace
52 rxvt.
