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.
20--enable-unicode3 22--enable-unicode3
21 enable support for unicode codepoints above 65535 (the basic 23 enable support for unicode codepoints above 65535 (the basic
22 multilingual page). This increases storage requirements per character 24 multilingual page). This increases storage requirements per
23 from 2 to 4 bytes and is not too useful as font support in X11 and Xft 25 character from 2 to 4 bytes. X11 fonts do not yet support these
24 is largely missing, although cut & paste will work correctly, as will 26 extra characters, but Xft does.
25 displaying, if you have the right font(s). 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)

44 (default: Rxvt). To disable resource fallback use --disable-fallback.
45--with-res-name=NAME
