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
1059omitting 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
1060keysym value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>). Note that the lookup of I<sym>s is not 1098value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>).
1061performed in an exact manner; however, the closest match is assured.
1062 1099
1063I<string> may contain escape values (C<\a>: bell, C<\b>: backspace, 1100As with any resource value, the I<action> string may contain backslash
1064C<\e>, C<\E>: escape, C<\n>: newline, C<\r>: carriage return, C<\t>: tab, 1101escape sequences (C<\n>: newline, C<\\>: backslash, C<\000>: octal
1065C<\000>: octal number) or verbatim control characters (C<^?>: delete, 1102number), see RESOURCES in C<man 7 X> for further details.
1066C<^@>: null, C<^A> ...) and may be enclosed with double quotes so that it
1067can start or end with whitespace. B<This feature is deprecated and will
1068be removed>.
1069 1103
1070Please note that you need to double the C<\> in resource files, as 1104An action starts with an action prefix that selects a certain type
1071Xlib 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
1072C<\e> (and so on), which will work with both Xt and @@RXVT_NAME@@'s own 1106interpreted as a literal string to pass to the tty (as if it was
1073processing). 1107prefixed with C<string:>).
1074 1108
1075You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a I<string> 1109The following action prefixes are known - extensions can provide
1076with 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
1077should be a character not used by the strings. 1128the delimiter `/' should be a character not used by the strings.
1078 1129
1079Its usage can be demonstrated by an example: 1130Its usage can be demonstrated by an example:
1080 1131
1081 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<M-C-|abc|> 1132 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<|abc|>
1082 1133
1083The above line is equivalent to the following three lines: 1134The above line is equivalent to the following three lines:
1084 1135

1144the opposite of C<string:> - instead of sending it to the program running
1145in the terminal, it will be treated as if it were program output). This is
1146most useful to feed command sequences into @@RXVT_NAME@@.

1098manpage. For example, the F<selection> extension (activated via 1155font-switching at runtime:
1099C<@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe selection>) listens for C<selection:rot13> events:
1100 1156
1101 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
1102 1159
1103Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping 1160Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more
1104will match if at I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and 1161info):
1105no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
1106means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide
1107definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined
1108mappings themselves.
1109 1162
1110Unfortunately, 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
1111if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s 1173For example if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable
1112C<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
1113user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement: 1175"holes" into the user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement:
1114 1176

1119of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for 1181of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
1120C<Shift-Insert>. 1182C<Shift-Insert>.
1121 1183
1122The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to 1184=item builtin-string:
1123the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
1124font-switching at runtime:
1125 1185
1126 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007 1186This action is mainly useful to restore string mappings for keys that
1127 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.
1128 1191
1129Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more 1192An example might make it clearer: @@RXVT_NAME@@ normally pastes the
1130info): 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:
1131 1196
1132 URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t 1197 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin-string:
1133 URxvt.keysym.M-C-4: command:\033[8;48;110t 1198 URxvt.keysym.C-S-Insert: builtin:
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:
1209 URxvt.keysym.C-M-v: builtin-string:
