		488
		489	Right now, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will first unmap/map the specified window, so it
		490	shouldn't be a top-level window. @@RXVT_NAME@@ will also reconfigure it
		491	quite a bit, so don't expect it to keep some specific state. It's best to
		492	create an extra subwindow for @@RXVT_NAME@@ and leave it alone.
		493
		494	The window will not be destroyed when @@RXVT_NAME@@ exits.
		495
		496	It might be useful to know that @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not close file
		497	descriptors passed to it (except for stdin/out/err, of course), so you
		498	can use file descriptors to communicate with the programs within the
		499	terminal. This works regardless of whether the C<-embed> option was used or
		500	not.
		501
		502	Here is a short Gtk2-perl snippet that illustrates how this option can be
		503	used (a longer example is in F<doc/embed>):
		504
		505	my $rxvt = new Gtk2::Socket;
		506	$rxvt->signal_connect_after (realize => sub {
		507	my $xid = $_[0]->window->get_xid;
		508	system "@@RXVT_NAME@@ -embed $xid &";
		509	});
		510
		511	=item B<-pty-fd> I<file descriptor>
		512
		513	Tells @@RXVT_NAME@@ NOT to execute any commands or create a new pty/tty
		514	pair but instead use the given file descriptor as the tty master. This is
		515	useful if you want to drive @@RXVT_NAME@@ as a generic terminal emulator
		516	without having to run a program within it.
		517
		518	If this switch is given, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not create any utmp/wtmp
		519	entries and will not tinker with pty/tty permissions - you have to do that
		520	yourself if you want that.
		521
		522	As an extremely special case, specifying C<-1> will completely suppress
		523	pty/tty operations, which is probably only useful in conjunction with some
		524	perl extension that manages the terminal.
		525
		526	Here is a example in perl that illustrates how this option can be used (a
		527	longer example is in F<doc/pty-fd>):
		528
		529	use IO::Pty;
		530	use Fcntl;
		531

		1485
		1486	If Xft support has been compiled in and as long as Xft/Xrender/X don't get
		1487	their act together, rxvt-unicode will do it's own alpha channel management:
		1488
		1489	You can prefix any color with an opaquenes percentage enclosed in
		1490	brackets, i.e. C<[percent]>, where C<percent> is a decimal percentage
		1491	(0-100) that specifies the opacity of the color, where C<0> is completely
		1492	transparent and C<100> is completely opaque. For example, C<[50]red> is a
		1493	half-transparent red, while C<[95]#00ff00> is an almost opaque green. This
		1494	is the recommended format to specify transparency values, and works with
		1495	all ways to specify a colour.
		1496
		1497	For complete control, rxvt-unicode also supports
		1498	C<rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa> (exactly four hex digits/component) colour
		1499	specifications, where the additional C<aaaa> component specifies opacity
		1500	(alpha) values. The minimum value of C<0000> is completely transparent,
		1501	while C<ffff> is completely opaque). The two example colours from
		1502	earlier could also be specified as C<rgba:ff00/0000/0000/8000> and
		1503	C<rgba:0000/ff00/0000/f332>.
		1504
		1505	You probably need to specify B<"-depth 32">, too, to force a visual with
		1506	alpha channels, and have the luck that your X-server uses ARGB pixel
		1507	layout, as X is far from just supporting ARGB visuals out of the box, and
		1508	rxvt-unicode just fudges around.
		1509
		1510	For example, the following selects an almost completely transparent black
		1511	background, and an almost opaque pink foreground:
		1512
		1513	@@RXVT_NAME@@ -depth 32 -bg rgba:0000/0000/0000/4444 -fg "[80]pink"
		1514
		1515	When not using a background image, then the interpretation of the
		1516	alpha channel is up to your compositing manager (most interpret it as
		1517	transparency of course).
		1518
		1519	When using a background pixmap or pseudo-transparency, then the background
		1520	colour will always behave as if it were completely transparent (so the
		1521	background image shows instead), regardless of how it was specified, while
		1522	other colours will either be transparent as specified (the background
		1523	image will show through) on servers supporting the RENDER extension, or
		1524	fully opaque on servers not supporting the RENDER EXTENSION.
		1525
		1526	Please note that due to bugs in Xft, specifying alpha values might result
		1527	in garbage being displayed when the X-server does not support the RENDER
		1528	extension.
