RESOURCES (available also as long-options)

Note: `rxvt --help' gives a list of all resources (long options) compiled into your version.

-

There are two different methods that rxvt can use to get the -Xresource data: using the X libraries (Xrm*-functions) or internal -Xresources reader (~/.Xdefaults). For the first method (ie. -rxvt -h lists XGetDefaults), you can set and change the -resources using X11 tools like xrdb. Many distribution do also load -settings from the ~/.Xresources file when X starts. rxvt -will consult the following files/resources in order, with later settings -overwriting earlier ones:

You can set and change the resources using X11 tools like xrdb. Many +distribution do also load settings from the ~/.Xresources file when X +starts. rxvt will consult the following files/resources in order, +with later settings overwriting earlier ones:

   1. system-wide app-defaults file, either locale-dependent OR global
   2. app-defaults file in $XAPPLRESDIR
   3. RESOURCE_MANAGER property on root-window OR $HOME/.Xdefaults
   4. SCREEN_RESOURCES for the current screen
   5. $XENVIRONMENT file OR $HOME/.Xdefaults-<nodename>
-

If compiled with internal Xresources support (i.e. rxvt -h -lists .Xdefaults) then rxvt accepts application defaults -set in XAPPLOADDIR/URxvt (compile-time defined: usually -/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/URxvt) and resources set in -~/.Xdefaults, or ~/.Xresources if ~/.Xdefaults does not exist. -Note that when reading X resources, rxvt recognizes two -class names: XTerm and URxvt. The class name Rxvt allows -resources common to both rxvt and the original rxvt to be -easily configured, while the class name URxvt allows resources -unique to rxvt, notably colours and key-handling, to be -shared between different rxvt configurations. If no -resources are specified, suitable defaults will be used. Command-line -arguments can be used to override resource settings. The following -resources are allowed:
