<p><strong>rxvt-unicode</strong>, version <strong>6.2</strong>, is a colour vt102 terminal |
| 52 |
root |
1.1 |
emulator intended as an <em>xterm</em>(1) replacement for users who do not |
| 53 |
|
|
require features such as Tektronix 4014 emulation and toolkit-style |
| 54 |
|
|
configurability. As a result, <strong>rxvt-unicode</strong> uses much less swap space -- |
| 55 |
|
|
a significant advantage on a machine serving many X sessions.</p> |

<h1><a name="rxvtunicode_vs__rxvt">RXVT-UNICODE VS. RXVT</a></h1> |
| 68 |
|
|
<p>Unlike the original rxvt, <strong>rxvt-unicode</strong> stores all text in Unicode |
| 69 |
|
|
internally. That means it can store and display most scripts in the |
| 70 |
|
|
world. Being a terminal emulator, however, some things are very difficult, |
| 71 |
|
|
especially cursive scripts such as arabic, vertically written scripts |
| 72 |
|
|
like mongolian or scripts requiring extremely complex combining rules, |
| 73 |
|
|
like tibetan or devenagari. Don't expect pretty output when using these |
| 74 |
|
|
scripts. Most other scripts, latin, cyrillic, kanji, thai etc. should work |
| 75 |
|
|
fine, though. A somewhat difficult case are left-to-right scripts, such |
| 76 |
|
|
as hebrew: <strong>rxvt-unicode</strong> adopts the view that bidirectional algorithms |
| 77 |
|
|
belong into the application, not the terminal emulator (too many things -- |
| 78 |
|
|
such as cursor-movement while editing -- break otherwise), but that might |
| 79 |
|
|
change.</p> |
| 80 |
|
|
<p>If you are looking for a terminal that supports more exotic scripts, let |
| 81 |
|
|
me recommend <code>mlterm</code>, which is a very userfriendly, lean and clean |
| 82 |
|
|
terminal emulator. In fact, the reason rxvt-unicode was born was solely |
| 83 |
|
|
because the author couldn't get <code>mlterm</code> to use one font for latin1 and |
| 84 |
|
|
another for japanese.</p> |
| 85 |
|
|
<p>Therefore another design rationale was the use of multiple fonts to |
| 86 |
|
|
display characters: The idea of a single unicode font which many other |
| 87 |
|
|
programs force onto it's users never made sense to me: You should be able |
| 88 |
|
|
to choose any font for any script freely.</p> |
| 89 |
|
|
<p>Apart from that, rxvt-unicode is also much better internationalised than |
| 90 |
|
|
it's predecessor, supports things such as XFT and ISO 14755 that are handy |
| 91 |
|
|
in i18n-environments, is faster, and has a lot less bugs than the original |
| 92 |
|
|
rxvt. This all in addition to dozens of other small improvements.</p> |
| 93 |
|
|
<p>It is still faithfully following the original rxvt idea of being lean |
| 94 |
|
|
and nice on resources: for example, you can still configure rxvt-unicode |
| 95 |
|
|
without most of it's features to get a lean binary. It also comes with |
| 96 |
|
|
a client/daemon pair that lets you open any number of terminal windows |
| 97 |
|
|
from within a single process, which makes startup time very fast and |
| 98 |
|
|
drastically reduces memory usage. See <code>rxvtd(1)</code> (daemon) and |
| 99 |
|
|
<code>rxvtc(1)</code> (client).</p> |
| 100 |
|
|
<p>It also makes technical information about escape sequences (which have |
| 101 |
|
|
been extended) easier accessible: see <code>rxvt(7)</code> for technical |
| 102 |
|
|
reference documentation (escape sequences etc.).</p> |

| 107 |
|
|
<p>The <strong>rxvt</strong> options (mostly a subset of <em>xterm</em>'s) are listed |
| 108 |
|
|
below. In keeping with the smaller-is-better philosophy, options may be |
| 109 |
|
|
eliminated or default values chosen at compile-time, so options and |
| 110 |
|
|
defaults listed may not accurately reflect the version installed on |
| 111 |
|
|
your system. `rxvt -h' gives a list of major compile-time options on |
| 112 |
|
|
the <em>Options</em> line. Option descriptions may be prefixed with which |
| 113 |
|
|
compile option each is dependent upon. e.g. `Compile <em>XIM</em>:' requires |
| 114 |
|
|
<em>XIM</em> on the <em>Options</em> line. Note: `rxvt -help' gives a list of all |
| 115 |
|
|
command-line options compiled into your version.</p> |
| 116 |
|
|
<p>Note that <strong>rxvt</strong> permits the resource name to be used as a |
| 117 |
|
|
long-option (--/++ option) so the potential command-line options are |
| 118 |
|
|
far greater than those listed. For example: `rxvt --loginShell --color1 |
| 119 |
|
|
Orange'.</p> |

first font defines the cell size for characters; other fonts might be |

<p>It might be useful to know that rxvt will not close file |
| 577 |
|
|
descriptors passed to it (except for stdin/out/err, of course), so you |
| 578 |
|
|
can use file descriptors to communicate with the programs within the |
| 579 |
|
|
terminal. This works regardless of wether the <code>-embed</code> option was used or |
| 580 |
|
|
not.</p> |

<h1><a name="resources__available_also_as_longoptions_">RESOURCES (available also as long-options)</a></h1> |
| 641 |
|
|
<p>Note: `rxvt --help' gives a list of all resources (long |
| 642 |
|
|
options) compiled into your version.</p> |
| 643 |
|
|
<p>There are two different methods that rxvt can use to get the |
| 644 |
|
|
Xresource data: using the X libraries (Xrm*-functions) or internal |
| 645 |
|
|
Xresources reader (<strong>~/.Xdefaults</strong>). For the first method (ie. |
| 646 |
|
|
<strong>rxvt -h</strong> lists <strong>XGetDefaults</strong>), you can set and change the |
| 647 |
root |
1.11 |
resources using X11 tools like <strong>xrdb</strong>. Many distribution do also load |
| 648 |
|
|
settings from the <strong>~/.Xresources</strong> file when X starts. rxvt |
| 649 |
|
|
will consult the following files/resources in order, with later settings |
| 650 |
|
|
overwriting earlier ones:</p> |
| 651 |
|
|
<pre> |
| 652 |
|
|
1. system-wide app-defaults file, either locale-dependent OR global |
| 653 |
|
|
2. app-defaults file in $XAPPLRESDIR |
| 654 |
|
|
3. RESOURCE_MANAGER property on root-window OR $HOME/.Xdefaults |
| 655 |
|
|
4. SCREEN_RESOURCES for the current screen |
| 656 |
|
|
5. $XENVIRONMENT file OR $HOME/.Xdefaults-<nodename></pre> |
| 657 |
root |
1.1 |
<p>If compiled with internal Xresources support (i.e. <strong>rxvt -h</strong> |
| 658 |
|
|
lists <strong>.Xdefaults</strong>) then <strong>rxvt</strong> accepts application defaults |
| 659 |
|
|
set in XAPPLOADDIR/URxvt (compile-time defined: usually |
| 660 |
|
|
<strong>/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/URxvt</strong>) and resources set in |
| 661 |
|
|
<strong>~/.Xdefaults</strong>, or <strong>~/.Xresources</strong> if <strong>~/.Xdefaults</strong> does not exist. |
| 662 |
|
|
Note that when reading X resources, <strong>rxvt</strong> recognizes two |
| 663 |
|
|
class names: <strong>XTerm</strong> and <strong>URxvt</strong>. The class name <strong>Rxvt</strong> allows |
| 664 |
|
|
resources common to both <strong>rxvt</strong> and the original <em>rxvt</em> to be |
| 665 |
|
|
easily configured, while the class name <strong>URxvt</strong> allows resources |
| 666 |
|
|
unique to <strong>rxvt</strong>, notably colours and key-handling, to be |
| 667 |
|
|
shared between different <strong>rxvt</strong> configurations. If no |
| 668 |
|
|
resources are specified, suitable defaults will be used. Command-line |
| 669 |
|
|
arguments can be used to override resource settings. The following |
| 670 |

<p>Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping |

|
|
will match if at <em>at least</em> the specified identifiers are being set, and |
| 1378 |
|

no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That |
| 1379 |

means that defining a key map for <code>a</code> will automatically provide |

definitions for <code>Meta-a</code>, <code>Shift-a</code> and so on, unless some of those are defined |

|
<code>Shift-Insert</code> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke ``holes'' into the |

|
|
<p>ISO 14755 is a standard for entering and viewing unicode characters |
| 1518 |
|
|
and character codes using the keyboard. It consists of 4 parts. The |
| 1519 |
|
|
first part is available rxvt-unicode has been compiled with |
| 1520 |
|
|
<code>--enable-frills</code>, the rest is available when rxvt-unicode was compiled |
| 1521 |
|
|
with <code>--enable-iso14755</code>.</p> |

This allows you to enter unicode characters using their hexcode. |
| 1526 |
|
|
<p>Start by pressing and holding both <code>Control</code> and <code>Shift</code>, then enter |
| 1527 |
|
|
hex-digits (between one and six). Releasing <code>Control</code> and <code>Shift</code> will |
| 1528 |
|
|
commit the character as if it were typed directly. While holding down |
| 1529 |
|
|
<code>Control</code> and <code>Shift</code> you can also enter multiple characters by pressing |
| 1530 |
|
|
<code>Space</code>, which will commit the current character and lets you start a new |
| 1531 |
|
|
one.</p> |
| 1532 |
|
|
<p>As an example of use, imagine a business card with a japanese e-mail |
| 1533 |
|
|
address, which you cannot type. Fortunately, the card has the e-mail |
| 1534 |
|
|
address printed as hexcodes, e.g. <code>671d 65e5</code>. You can enter this easily |
| 1535 |
|
|
by pressing <code>Control</code> and <code>Shift</code>, followed by <code>6-7-1-D-SPACE-6-5-E-5</code>, |
| 1536 |
|
|
followed by releasing the modifier keys.</p> |

invoke it's usual function but instead will insert the corresponding |
| 1545 |
|
|
keycap symbol. The symbol will only be entered when the key has been |
| 1546 |
|
|
released, otherwise pressing e.g. <code>Shift</code> would enter the symbol for |
| 1547 |
|
|
<code>ISO Level 2 Switch</code>, although your intention might have been to enter a |

This method lets you display the unicode character code associated with |

<p>You enter this mode by holding down <code>Control</code> and <code>Shift</code> together, then |

hex <code>code(s)</code> (it might be a combining character) of the character under the |
| 1562 |
|
|
pointer is displayed until you release <code>Control</code> and <code>Shift</code>.</p> |
| 1563 |

<p>In addition to the hex codes it will display the font used to draw this |

combining characters, line drawing characters and unknown characters will |
