1106
1107The key combination that triggers the action, I<sym>, has the following format:
1108
1109 (modifiers-)key
1110
1111Where I<modifiers> can be any combination of the following full or
1112abbreviated modifier names:
1113
1114=begin table
1115
1116 B<ISOLevel3> B<I>

1107whatever modifier the NumLock key, Meta/Alt keys or ISO Level3 Shift/AltGr 1132whatever modifier the NumLock key, Meta/Alt keys or ISO Level3 Shift/AltGr
1108keys are being mapped. B<AppKeypad> is a synthetic modifier mapped to the 1133keys are being mapped. B<AppKeypad> is a synthetic modifier mapped to the
1109current application keymap mode state. 1134current application keymap mode state.
1110 1135
1111The spellings of I<key> can be obtained by using B<xev>(1) command or 1136Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a key mapping will
1112searching keysym macros from B</usr/X11R6/include/X11/keysymdef.h> and 1137match if I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and no other
1138key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That means that
1139defining a mapping for C<a> will automatically provide definitions for
1140C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined mappings
1141themselves. See the C<builtin:> action, below, for a way to work around
1142this when this is a problem.
1143
1144The spelling of I<key> depends on your implementation of X. An easy way to
1145find a key name is to use the B<xev>(1) command. You can find a list by
1146looking for the C<XK_> macros in the B<X11/keysymdef.h> include file (omit
1113omitting the prefix B<XK_>. Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex 1147the C<XK_> prefix). Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex keysym
1114keysym value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>). Note that the lookup of I<sym>s is not 1148value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>).
1115performed in an exact manner; however, the closest match is assured.
1116 1149
1117I<string> may contain escape values (C<\n>: newline, C<\000>: octal 1150As with any resource value, the I<action> string may contain backslash
1151escape sequences (C<\n>: newline, C<\\>: backslash, C<\000>: octal
1118number), see RESOURCES in C<man 7 X> for futher details. 1152number), see RESOURCES in C<man 7 X> for further details.
1119 1153
1120You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a I<string> 1154An action starts with an action prefix that selects a certain type
1121with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where the delimiter `/' 1155of action, followed by a colon. An action string without colons is
1156interpreted as a literal string to pass to the tty (as if it was
1157prefixed with C<string:>).
1158
1159The following action prefixes are known - extensions can provide
1160additional prefixes:
1161
1162=over 4
1163
1164=item string:STRING
1165
1166If the I<action> starts with C<string:> (or otherwise contains no colons),
1167then the remaining C<STRING> will be passed to the program running in the
1168terminal. For example, you could replace whatever Shift-Tab outputs by the
1169string C<echo rm -rf /> followed by a newline:
1170
1171 URxvt.keysym.Shift-Tab: string:echo rm -rf /\n
1172
1173This could in theory be used to completely redefine your keymap.
1174
1175In addition, for actions of this type, you can define a range of
1176keysyms in one shot by loading the C<keysym-list> perl extension and
1177providing an I<action> with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where
1122should be a character not used by the strings. 1178the delimiter `/' should be a character not used by the strings.
1123 1179
1124Its usage can be demonstrated by an example: 1180Its usage can be demonstrated by an example:
1125 1181
1126 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<M-C-|abc|> 1182 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<|abc|>
1127 1183
1128The above line is equivalent to the following three lines: 1184The above line is equivalent to the following three lines:

1194the opposite of C<string:> - instead of sending it to the program running

1196most useful to feed command sequences into @@RXVT_NAME@@.

1143manpage. For example, the F<selection> extension (activated via 1205font-switching at runtime:
1144C<@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe selection>) listens for C<selection:rot13> events:
1145 1206
1146 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: perl:selection:rot13 1207 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007
1208 URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007
1147 1209
1148Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping 1210Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more
1149will match if at I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and 1211info):
1150no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
1151means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide
1152definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined
1153mappings themselves.
1154 1212
1155Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example 1213 URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t
1214 URxvt.keysym.M-C-4: command:\033[8;48;110t
1215
1216=item builtin:
1217
1218The builtin action is the action that @@RXVT_NAME@@ would execute if no
1219key binding existed for the key combination. The obvious use is to undo
1220the effect of existing bindings. The not so obvious use is to reinstate
1221bindings when another binding overrides too many modifiers.
1222
1156if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s 1223For example if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable
1157C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into the 1224@@RXVT_NAME@@'s C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke
1158user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement: 1225"holes" into the user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement:
1159 1226

1165C<Shift-Insert>. 1232C<Shift-Insert>.
1166 1233
1167The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to 1234=item builtin-string:
1168the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
1169font-switching at runtime:
1170 1235
1171 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007 1236This action is mainly useful to restore string mappings for keys that
1172 URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007 1237have predefined actions in @@RXVT_NAME@@. The exact semantics are a bit
1238difficult to explain - basically, this action will send the string to the
1239application that would be sent if @@RXVT_NAME@@ wouldn't have a built-in
1240action for it.
1173 1241
1174Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more 1242An example might make it clearer: @@RXVT_NAME@@ normally pastes the
1175info): 1243selection when you press C<Shift-Insert>. With the following bindings, it
1244would instead emit the (undocumented, but what applications running in the
1245terminal might expect) sequence C<ESC [ 2 $> instead:
1176 1246
1177 URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t 1247 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin-string:

1249
1250The first line disables the paste functionality for that key
1251combination, and the second reinstates the default behaviour for
1252C<Control-Shift-Insert>, which would otherwise be overridden.
1253
1254Similarly, to let applications gain access to the C<C-M-c> (copy to
1255clipboard) and C<C-M-v> (paste clipboard) key combination, you can do
1256this:
1257
1258 URxvt.keysym.C-M-c: builtin-string:

1406B<@@RXVT_NAME@@> can display up to 16 colours (8 ANSI colours plus 1524B<@@RXVT_NAME@@> can display up to 88/256 colours: 8 ANSI colours plus
1407high-intensity bold/blink versions of the same). Here is a list of the 1525high-intensity (potentially bold/blink) versions of the same, and 72 (or
1408colours with their names. 1526240 in 256 colour mode) colours arranged in an 4x4x4 (or 6x6x6) colour RGB
1527cube plus a 8 (24) colour greyscale ramp.

1529B<@@RXVT_NAME@@> supports direct 24-bit fg/bg RGB colour escapes
1530C< ESC [ 38 ; 2 ; R ; G ; Bm > / C< ESC [ 48 ; 2; R ; G ; Bm >. However the
1531number of 24-bit colours that can be used is limited: an internal 7x7x5 (256
1532colour mode) or 6x6x4 (88 colour mode) colour cube is used to index into the
153324-bit colour space. When indexing collisions happen, the nearest old colour in
1534the cube will be adapted to the new 24-bit RGB colour. That means one cannot
1535use many similar 24-bit colours. It's typically not a problem in common
1536scenarios.

1574 index_256 = (r * 6 + g) * 6 + b + 16 # r, g, b = 0..5
