1101.Sp
1102Extension names can be prefixed with a \f(CW\*(C`\-\*(C'\fR sign to prohibit using
1103them. This can be useful to selectively disable some extensions loaded
1104by default, or specified via the \f(CW\*(C`perl\-ext\-common\*(C'\fR resource. For
1105example, \f(CW\*(C`default,\-selection\*(C'\fR will use all the default extension except
1106\&\f(CW\*(C`selection\*(C'\fR.
1107.Sp
1108Extension names can also be followed by an argument in angle brackets
1109(e.g. \f(CW\*(C`searchable\-scrollback<M\-s>\*(C'\fR, which binds the hotkey for
1110searchable scorllback to Alt/Meta\-s). Mentioning the same extension
1111multiple times with different arguments will pass multiple arguments to
1112the extension.

1115necessary, and bound to the current terminal instance.
