613<p>It might be useful to know that rxvt will not close file

1402<p>Please note that you need to double the <code>\</code> in resource files, as
1403Xlib itself does its own de-escaping (you can use <code>\033</code> instead of
1404<code>\e</code> (and so on), which will work with both Xt and rxvt's own
1405processing).</p>
1406</dd>
1407<dd>
1408<p>You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a <em>string</em>
1409with pattern <strong>list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX</strong>, where the delimiter `/'
1410should be a character not used by the strings.</p>
1411</dd>
1412<dd>
1413<p>Its usage can be demonstrated by an example:</p>
1414</dd>
1415<dd>
1416<pre>
1417 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033&lt;M-C-|abc|&gt;</pre>
1418</dd>
1419<dd>
1420<p>The above line is equivalent to the following three lines:</p>
1421</dd>
1422<dd>
1423<pre>
1424 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \033&lt;M-C-a&gt;
1425 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x62: \033&lt;M-C-b&gt;
1426 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x63: \033&lt;M-C-c&gt;</pre>
1427</dd>
1428<dd>
1429<p>If <em>string</em> takes the form of <code>command:STRING</code>, the specified <strong>STRING</strong>
1430is interpreted and executed as rxvt's control sequence. For
1431example the following means ``change the current locale to <code>zh_CN.GBK</code>
1432when Control-Meta-c is being pressed'':</p>
1433</dd>
1434<dd>
1435<pre>
1436 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007</pre>
1437</dd>
1438<dd>
1439<p>If <em>string</em> takes the form <code>perl:STRING</code>, then the specified <strong>STRING</strong>
1440is passed to the <code>on_keyboard_command</code> perl handler. See the <code>rxvtperl(3)</code>
1441manpage. For example, the <em>selection</em> extension (activated via
1442<code>rxvt -pe selection</code>) listens for <code>selection:rot13</code> events:</p>
1443</dd>
1444<dd>
1445<pre>
1446 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: perl:selection:rot13</pre>
1447</dd>
1448<dd>
1449<p>Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping
1450will match if at <em>at least</em> the specified identifiers are being set, and
1451no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
1452means that defining a key map for <code>a</code> will automatically provide
1453definitions for <code>Meta-a</code>, <code>Shift-a</code> and so on, unless some of those are defined
1454mappings themselves.</p>
1455</dd>
1456<dd>
1457<p>Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example
1458if you overwrite the <code>Insert</code> key you will disable rxvt's
1459<code>Shift-Insert</code> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke ``holes'' into the
1460user-defined keymap using the <code>builtin:</code> replacement:</p>
1461</dd>
1462<dd>
1463<pre>
1464 URxvt.keysym.Insert: &lt;my insert key sequence&gt;
1465 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin:</pre>
1466</dd>
1467<dd>
1468<p>The first line defines a mapping for <code>Insert</code> and <em>any</em> combination
1469of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
1470<code>Shift-Insert</code>.</p>
1471</dd>
1472<dd>
1473<p>The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to
1474the fonts <code>suxuseuro</code> and <code>9x15bold</code>, so you can have some limited
1475font-switching at runtime:</p>
1476</dd>
1477<dd>
1478<pre>
1479 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007
1480 URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007</pre>
1481</dd>
1482<dd>
1483<p>Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see <code>rxvt(7)</code> for more
1484info):</p>

1784<p>If Xft support has been compiled in and as long as Xft/Xrender/X don't get
1785their act together, rxvt-unicode will support <code>rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa</code>
1786(recommended, but <strong>MUST</strong> have 4 digits/component) colour specifications,
1787in addition to the ones provided by X, where the additional A component
1788specifies opacity (alpha) values. The minimum value of <code>0</code> is completely
1789transparent). You can also prefix any color with <code>[percent]</code>, where
1790<code>percent</code> is a decimal percentage (0-100) that specifies the opacity of
1791the color, where <code>0</code> is completely transparent and <code>100</code> is completelxy
1792opaque.</p>
1793<p>You probably need to specify <strong>``-depth 32''</strong>, too, and have the luck that
1794your X-server uses ARGB pixel layout, as X is far from just supporting
1795ARGB visuals out of the box, and rxvt-unicode just fudges around.</p>
1796<p>For example, the following selects an almost completely transparent red
1797background, and an almost opaque pink foreground:</p>
1798<pre>
1799 rxvt -depth 32 -bg rgba:0000/0000/0000/aaaa -fg &quot;[80]pink&quot;</pre>
1800<p><em>Please note that transparency of any kind if completely unsupported by
1801the author. Don't bug him with installation questions!</em></p>
