1077The 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
1078searching 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

1090Please note that you need to double the C<\> in resource files, as 1104An action starts with an action prefix that selects a certain type
1091Xlib 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

1093processing). 1107prefixed with C<string:>).
1094 1108
1095You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a I<string> 1109The following action prefixes are known - extensions can provide
1096with 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
1097should be a character not used by the strings. 1128the delimiter `/' should be a character not used by the strings.
1098 1129
1099Its usage can be demonstrated by an example: 1130Its usage can be demonstrated by an example:
1100 1131
1101 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<M-C-|abc|> 1132 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<|abc|>

1144the opposite of C<string:> - instead of sending it to the program running

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

1118manpage. For example, the F<selection> extension (activated via 1155font-switching at runtime:
1119C<@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe selection>) listens for C<selection:rot13> events:
1120 1156
1121 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
1122 1159
1123Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping 1160Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more
1124will match if at I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and 1161info):
1125no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
1126means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide
1127definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined
1128mappings themselves.
1129 1162
1130Unfortunately, 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
1131if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s 1173For example if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable
1132C<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
1133user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement: 1175"holes" into the user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement:
1134 1176

1138The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination 1180The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination
1139of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for 1181of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
1140C<Shift-Insert>. 1182C<Shift-Insert>.
1141 1183
1142The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to 1184=item builtin-string:
1143the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
1144font-switching at runtime:
1145 1185
1146 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007 1186This action is mainly useful to restore string mappings for keys that
1147 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.
1148 1191
1149Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more 1192An example might make it clearer: @@RXVT_NAME@@ normally pastes the
1150info): 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:
1151 1196
1152 URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t 1197 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin-string:
1153 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:
