1375</dd>
1376<dd>
1377<p>The spellings of <em>key</em> can be obtained by using <strong>xev</strong>(1) command or
1378searching keysym macros from <strong>/usr/X11R6/include/X11/keysymdef.h</strong> and
1379omitting the prefix <strong>XK_</strong>. Alternatively you can specify <em>key</em> by its hex
1380keysym value (<strong>0x0000 - 0xFFFF</strong>). Note that the lookup of <em>sym</em>s is not
1381performed in an exact manner; however, the closest match is assured.</p>

1384<p><em>string</em> may contain escape values (<code>\a</code>: bell, <code>\b</code>: backspace,

1388can start or end with whitespace.</p>
1389</dd>
1390<dd>
1391<p>Please note that you need to double the <code>\</code> in resource files, as
1392Xlib itself does it's own de-escaping (you can use <code>\033</code> instead of
1393<code>\e</code> (and so on), which will work with both Xt and rxvt's own
1394processing).</p>
1395</dd>
1396<dd>
1397<p>You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a <em>string</em>
1398with pattern <strong>list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX</strong>, where the delimeter `/'
1399should be a character not used by the strings.</p>
1400</dd>
1401<dd>
1402<p>Its usage can be demonstrated by an example:</p>
1403</dd>
1404<dd>
1405<pre>
1406 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033&lt;M-C-|abc|&gt;</pre>
1407</dd>
1408<dd>
1409<p>The above line is equivalent to the following three lines:</p>
1410</dd>
1411<dd>
1412<pre>
1413 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \033&lt;M-C-a&gt;
1414 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x62: \033&lt;M-C-b&gt;
1415 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x63: \033&lt;M-C-c&gt;</pre>
1416</dd>
1417<dd>
1418<p>If <em>string</em> takes the form of <code>command:STRING</code>, the specified <strong>STRING</strong>
1419is interpreted and executed as rxvt's control sequence. For
1420example the following means ``change the current locale to <code>zh_CN.GBK</code>
1421when Control-Meta-c is being pressed'':</p>
1422</dd>
1423<dd>
1424<pre>
1425 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007</pre>
1426</dd>
1427<dd>
1428<p>If <em>string</em> takes the form <code>perl:STRING</code>, then the specified <strong>STRING</strong>
1429is passed to the <code>on_keyboard_command</code> perl handler. See the <code>rxvtperl(3)</code>
1430manpage. For example, the <em>selection</em> extension (activated via
1431<code>rxvt -pe selection</code>) listens for <code>selection:rot13</code> events:</p>
1432</dd>
1433<dd>
1434<pre>
1435 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: perl:selection:rot13</pre>
1436</dd>
1437<dd>
1438<p>Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping
1439will match if at <em>at least</em> the specified identifiers are being set, and
1440no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
1441means that defining a key map for <code>a</code> will automatically provide
1442definitions for <code>Meta-a</code>, <code>Shift-a</code> and so on, unless some of those are defined
1443mappings themselves.</p>
1444</dd>
1445<dd>
1446<p>Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example
1447if you overwrite the <code>Insert</code> key you will disable rxvt's
1448<code>Shift-Insert</code> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke ``holes'' into the
1449user-defined keymap using the <code>builtin:</code> replacement:</p>
1450</dd>
1451<dd>
1452<pre>
1453 URxvt.keysym.Insert: &lt;my insert key sequence&gt;
1454 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin:</pre>
1455</dd>
1456<dd>
1457<p>The first line defines a mapping for <code>Insert</code> and <em>any</em> combination
1458of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
1459<code>Shift-Insert</code>.</p>
1460</dd>
1461<dd>
1462<p>The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to
1463the fonts <code>suxuseuro</code> and <code>9x15bold</code>, so you can have some limited
1464font-switching at runtime:</p>
1465</dd>
1466<dd>
1467<pre>
1468 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007

1490<p>Extension names can be prefixed with a <code>-</code> sign to prohibit using
1491them. This can be useful to selectively disable some extensions loaded
