1026The spellings of I<key> can be obtained by using B<xev>(1) command or 1086Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a key mapping will
1027searching keysym macros from B</usr/X11R6/include/X11/keysymdef.h> and 1087match if I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and no other
1088key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That means that
1089defining a mapping for C<a> will automatically provide definitions for
1090C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined mappings
1091themselves. See the C<builtin:> action, below, for a way to work around
1092this when this is a problem.
1093
1094The spelling of I<key> depends on your implementation of X. An easy way to
1095find a key name is to use the B<xev>(1) command. You can find a list by
1096looking for the C<XK_> macros in the B<X11/keysymdef.h> include file (omit
1028omitting the prefix B<XK_>. Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex 1097the C<XK_> prefix). Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex keysym
1029keysym value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>). Note that the lookup of I<sym>s is not 1098value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>).

1039Please note that you need to double the C<\> in resource files, as 1104An action starts with an action prefix that selects a certain type
1040Xlib itself does its own de-escaping (you can use C<\033> instead of 1105of action, followed by a colon. An action string without colons is

1044You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a I<string> 1109The following action prefixes are known - extensions can provide
1045with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where the delimiter `/' 1110additional prefixes:
1111
1112=over 4
1113
1114=item string:STRING
1115
1116If the I<action> starts with C<string:> (or otherwise contains no colons),
1117then the remaining C<STRING> will be passed to the program running in the
1118terminal. For example, you could replace whatever Shift-Tab outputs by the
1119string C<echo rm -rf /> followed by a newline:
1120
1121 URxvt.keysym.Shift-Tab: string:echo rm -rf /\n
1122
1123This could in theory be used to completely redefine your keymap.
1124
1125In addition, for actions of this type, you can define a range of
1126keysyms in one shot by loading the C<keysym-list> perl extension and
1127providing an I<action> with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where
1046should be a character not used by the strings. 1128the delimiter `/' should be a character not used by the strings.
1047 1129
1048Its usage can be demonstrated by an example: 1130Its usage can be demonstrated by an example:
1049 1131

1146most useful to feed command sequences into @@RXVT_NAME@@.

1067manpage. For example, the F<selection> extension (activated via 1155font-switching at runtime:
1068C<@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe selection>) listens for C<selection:rot13> events:
1069 1156
1070 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: perl:selection:rot13 1157 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007
1158 URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007
1071 1159

1073will match if at I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and 1161info):
1074no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
1075means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide
1076definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined
1077mappings themselves.
1078 1162
1079Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example 1163 URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t
1164 URxvt.keysym.M-C-4: command:\033[8;48;110t
1165
1166=item builtin:
1167
1168The builtin action is the action that @@RXVT_NAME@@ would execute if no
1169key binding existed for the key combination. The obvious use is to undo
1170the effect of existing bindings. The not so obvious use is to reinstate
1171bindings when another binding overrides too many modifiers.
1172
1080if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s 1173For example if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable
1081C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into the 1174@@RXVT_NAME@@'s C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke
1082user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement: 1175"holes" into the user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement:
1083 1176

1089C<Shift-Insert>. 1182C<Shift-Insert>.
1090 1183
1091The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to 1184=item builtin-string:
1092the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
1093font-switching at runtime:
1094 1185
1095 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007 1186This action is mainly useful to restore string mappings for keys that
1096 URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007 1187have predefined actions in @@RXVT_NAME@@. The exact semantics are a bit
1188difficult to explain - basically, this action will send the string to the
1189application that would be sent if @@RXVT_NAME@@ wouldn't have a built-in
1190action for it.
1097 1191
1098Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more 1192An example might make it clearer: @@RXVT_NAME@@ normally pastes the
1099info): 1193selection when you press C<Shift-Insert>. With the following bindings, it
1194would instead emit the (undocumented, but what applications running in the
1195terminal might expect) sequence C<ESC [ 2 $> instead:
1100 1196
1101 URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t 1197 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin-string:

1199
1200The first line disables the paste functionality for that key
1201combination, and the second reinstates the default behaviour for
1202C<Control-Shift-Insert>, which would otherwise be overridden.
1203
1204Similarly, to let applications gain access to the C<C-M-c> (copy to
1205clipboard) and C<C-M-v> (paste clipboard) key combination, you can do
1206this:
1207
1208 URxvt.keysym.C-M-c: builtin-string:
