		889	The spellings of I<key> can be obtained by using B<xev>(1) command or
		890	searching keysym macros from B</usr/X11R6/include/X11/keysymdef.h> and
		891	omitting the prefix B<XK_>. Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex
		892	keysym value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>). Note that the lookup of I<sym>s is not
		893	performed in an exact manner; however, the closest match is assured.
		894
		895	I<string> may contain escape values (C<\a>: bell, C<\b>: backspace,
		896	C<\e>, C<\E>: escape, C<\n>: newline, C<\r>: carriage return, C<\t>: tab,
800	tab, \000: octal number) or control characters (^?: delete, ^@: null,	897	C<\000>: octal number) or verbatim control characters (C<^?>: delete,
801	^A ...) and may enclosed with double quotes so that it can start or end	898	C<^@>: null, C<^A> ...) and may be enclosed with double quotes so that it

803	omitted. This resource is only available when compiled with	900
804	KEYSYM_RESOURCE.	901	Please note that you need to double the C<\> when using
		902	C<--enable-xgetdefault>, as X itself does it's own de-escaping (you can
		903	use C<\033> instead of C<\e> (and so on), which will work with both Xt and
		904	@@RXVT_NAME@@'s own processing).
		905
		906	You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a I<string>
		907	with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where the delimeter `/'
		908	should be a character not used by the strings.
		909
		910	Its usage can be demonstrated by an example:
		911
		912	URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list\|\033<M-C-\|abc\|>
		913
		914	The above line is equivalent to the following three lines:
		915
		916	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \033<M-C-a>
		917	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x62: \033<M-C-b>
		918	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x63: \033<M-C-c>
		919
		920	If I<string> takes the form of C<command:STRING>, the specified B<STRING>
		921	is interpreted and executed as @@RXVT_NAME@@'s control sequence. For
		922	example the following means "change the current locale to C<zh_CN.GBK>
		923	when Control-Meta-c is being pressed":
		924
		925	URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007
		926
		927	The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to
		928	the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
		929	font-switching at runtime:
		930
		931	URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007
		932	URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007
		933
		934	Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more
		935	info):
		936
		937	URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t
