1351If Xft support has been compiled in and as long as Xft/Xrender/X don't get
1352their act together, rxvt-unicode will support C<rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa>
1353(recommended, but B<MUST> have 4 digits/component), C<#ARGB>, C<#AARRGGBB>
1354and C<#AAAARRRRGGGGBBBB> colour specifications, in addition to the ones
1355provided by X, where the additional A component specifies alpha (opacity)
1356values (0 is completely transparent and the maximum is opaque). You
1357probably need to specify B<"-depth 32">, too, and have the luck that your
1358X-server uses ARGB pixel layout, as X is far from just supporting ARGB
1359visuals out of the box, and rxvt-unicode just fudges around.
