1179The format of I<sym> is "I<(modifiers-)key>", where I<modifiers> can be 1065Using this resource, you can map key combinations such as
1180any combination of B<ISOLevel3>, B<AppKeypad>, B<Control>, B<NumLock>, 1066C<Ctrl-Shift-BackSpace> to various actions, such as outputting a different
1181B<Shift>, B<Meta>, B<Lock>, B<Mod1>, B<Mod2>, B<Mod3>, B<Mod4>, B<Mod5>, 1067string than would normally result from that combination, making the

1183B<2>, B<3>, B<4>, B<5>. 1069extension might provide.
1070
1071The key combination that triggers the action, I<sym>, has the following format:
1072
1073 (modifiers-)key
1074
1075Where I<modifiers> can be any combination of B<ISOLevel3>, B<AppKeypad>,
1076B<Control>, B<NumLock>, B<Shift>, B<Meta>, B<Lock>, B<Mod1>, B<Mod2>,
1077B<Mod3>, B<Mod4>, B<Mod5>, and the abbreviated B<I>, B<K>, B<C>, B<N>,
1078B<S>, B<M>, B<A>, B<L>, B<1>, B<2>, B<3>, B<4>, B<5>.
1184 1079
1185The B<NumLock>, B<Meta> and B<ISOLevel3> modifiers are usually aliased to 1080The B<NumLock>, B<Meta> and B<ISOLevel3> modifiers are usually aliased to
1186whatever modifier the NumLock key, Meta/Alt keys or ISO Level3 Shift/AltGr 1081whatever modifier the NumLock key, Meta/Alt keys or ISO Level3 Shift/AltGr
1187keys are being mapped. B<AppKeypad> is a synthetic modifier mapped to the 1082keys are being mapped. B<AppKeypad> is a synthetic modifier mapped to the
1188current application keymap mode state. 1083current application keymap mode state.
1189 1084
1190The spellings of I<key> can be obtained by using B<xev>(1) command or 1085Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a key mapping will
1191searching keysym macros from B</usr/X11R6/include/X11/keysymdef.h> and 1086match if I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and no other
1087key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That means that
1088defining a mapping for C<a> will automatically provide definitions for
1089C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined mappings
1090themselves. See the C<builtin:> action, below, for a way to work around
1091this when this is a problem.
1092
1093The spelling of I<key> depends on your implementation of X. An easy way to
1094find a key name is to use the B<xev>(1) command. You can find a list by
1095looking for the C<XK_> macros in the B<X11/keysymdef.h> include file (omit
1192omitting the prefix B<XK_>. Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex 1096the C<XK_> prefix). Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex keysym
1193keysym value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>). Note that the lookup of I<sym>s is not 1097value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>).
1194performed in an exact manner; however, the closest match is assured.
1195 1098
1196I<string> may contain escape values (C<\n>: newline, C<\000>: octal 1099As with any resource value, the I<action> string may contain backslash
1100escape sequences (C<\n>: newline, C<\\>: backslash, C<\000>: octal
1197number), see RESOURCES in C<man 7 X> for further details. 1101number), see RESOURCES in C<man 7 X> for further details.
1198 1102
1199You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by 1103An action starts with an action prefix that selects a certain type
1200loading the C<keysym-list> perl extension and providing a I<string> 1104of action, followed by a colon. An action string without colons is
1201with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where the delimiter `/' 1105interpreted as a literal string to pass to the tty (as if it was
1202should be a character not used by the strings. 1106prefixed with C<string:>).
1203 1107
1204Its usage can be demonstrated by an example: 1108The following action prefixes are known - extensions can provide
1109additional prefixes:
1205 1110
1206 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<|abc|> 1111=over 4
1207 1112
1208The above line is equivalent to the following three lines: 1113=item string:STRING
1209 1114
1210 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \033<a> 1115If the I<action> starts with C<string:> (or otherwise contains no colons),
1211 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x62: \033<b> 1116then the remaining C<STRING> will be passed to the program running in the
1212 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x63: \033<c> 1117terminal. For example, you could replace whatever Shift-Tab outputs by the
1118string C<echo rm -rf /> followed by a newline:
1213 1119
1120 URxvt.keysym.Shift-Tab: string:echo rm -rf /\n
1121
1122This could in theory be used to completely redefine your keymap.
1123
1124=item command:STRING
1125
1214If I<string> takes the form of C<command:STRING>, the specified B<STRING> 1126If I<action> takes the form of C<command:STRING>, the specified B<STRING>
1215is interpreted and executed as @@RXVT_NAME@@'s control sequence. For 1127is interpreted and executed as @@RXVT_NAME@@'s control sequence (basically
1128the opposite of C<string:> - instead of sending it to the program running
1129in the terminal, it will be treated as if it were program output). This is
1130most useful to feed command sequences into @@RXVT_NAME@@.
1131
1216example the following means "change the current locale to C<zh_CN.GBK> 1132For example the following means "change the current locale to C<zh_CN.GBK>
1217when Control-Meta-c is being pressed": 1133when Control-Meta-c is being pressed":
1218 1134
1219 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007 1135 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007
1220 1136
1221If I<string> takes the form C<perl:STRING>, then the specified B<STRING> 1137The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to
1222is passed to the C<on_user_command> perl handler. See the @@RXVT_NAME@@perl(3) 1138the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
1223manpage. For example, the F<selection> extension (activated via 1139font-switching at runtime:
1224C<@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe selection>) listens for C<selection:rot13> events:
1225 1140
1226 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: perl:selection:rot13 1141 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007
1142 URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007
1227 1143
1228Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping 1144Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more
1229will match if I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and 1145info):
1230no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
1231means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide
1232definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined
1233mappings themselves.
1234 1146
1235Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example 1147 URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t
1148 URxvt.keysym.M-C-4: command:\033[8;48;110t
1149
1150=item builtin:
1151
1152The builtin action is the action that @@RXVT_NAME@@ would execute if no
1153key binding existed for the key combination. The obvious use is to undo
1154the effect of existing bindings. The not so obvious use is to reinstate
1155bindings when another binding overrides too many modifiers.
1156
1236if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s 1157For example if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable
1237C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into the 1158@@RXVT_NAME@@'s C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke
1238user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement: 1159"holes" into the user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement:
1239 1160
1240 URxvt.keysym.Insert: <my insert key sequence> 1161 URxvt.keysym.Insert: <my insert key sequence>
1241 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin: 1162 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin:
1242 1163
1243The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination 1164The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination
1244of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for 1165of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
1245C<Shift-Insert>. 1166C<Shift-Insert>.
1246 1167
1247The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to 1168=item builtin-string:
1248the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
1249font-switching at runtime:
1250 1169
1251 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007 1170This action is mainly useful to restore string mappings for keys that
1252 URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007 1171have predefined actions in @@RXVT_NAME@@. The exact semantics are a bit
1172difficult to explain - basically, this action will send the string to the
1173application that would be sent if @@RXVT_NAME@@ wouldn't have a built-in
1174action for it.
1253 1175
1254Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more 1176An example might make it clearer: @@RXVT_NAME@@ normally pastes the

1178would instead emit the (undocumented, but what applications running in the

1185combination, and the second reinstates the default behaviour for
