1421If Xft support has been compiled in and as long as Xft/Xrender/X don't get
1422their act together, rxvt-unicode will support \f(CW\*(C`rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa\*(C'\fR

1424in addition to the ones provided by X, where the additional A component
1425specifies opacity (alpha) values. The minimum value of \f(CW0\fR is completely
1426transparent). You can also prefix any color with \f(CW\*(C`[percent]\*(C'\fR, where
1427\&\f(CW\*(C`percent\*(C'\fR is a decimal percentage (0\-100) that specifies the opacity of

1431You probably need to specify \fB\*(L"\-depth 32\*(R"\fR, too, and have the luck that
1432your X\-server uses \s-1ARGB\s0 pixel layout, as X is far from just supporting
