1142The format of I<sym> is "I<(modifiers-)key>", where I<modifiers> can be 1065Using this resource, you can map key combinations such as
1143any combination of B<ISOLevel3>, B<AppKeypad>, B<Control>, B<NumLock>, 1066C<Ctrl-Shift-BackSpace> to various actions, such as outputting a different

1146B<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>.

1150keys 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
1151current application keymap mode state. 1083current application keymap mode state.
1152 1084
1153The 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
1154searching 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
1155omitting 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
1156keysym value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>). Note that the lookup of I<sym>s is not 1097value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>).
1157performed in an exact manner; however, the closest match is assured.
1158 1098
1159I<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
1160number), see RESOURCES in C<man 7 X> for futher details. 1101number), see RESOURCES in C<man 7 X> for further details.
1161 1102
1162You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a I<string> 1103An action starts with an action prefix that selects a certain type
1163with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where the delimiter `/' 1104of action, followed by a colon. An action string without colons is
1164should be a character not used by the strings. 1105interpreted as a literal string to pass to the tty (as if it was
1106prefixed with C<string:>).
1165 1107
1166Its usage can be demonstrated by an example: 1108The following action prefixes are known - extensions can provide
1109additional prefixes:
1167 1110
1168 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<M-C-|abc|> 1111=over 4
1169 1112
1170The above line is equivalent to the following three lines: 1113=item string:STRING
1171 1114
1172 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \033<M-C-a> 1115If the I<action> starts with C<string:> (or otherwise contains no colons),
1173 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x62: \033<M-C-b> 1116then the remaining C<STRING> will be passed to the program running in the
1174 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x63: \033<M-C-c> 1117terminal. For example, you could replace whatever Shift-Tab outputs by the
1118string C<echo rm -rf /> followed by a newline:
1175 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
1176If 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>
1177is 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
1178example 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>

1184is passed to the C<on_keyboard_command> perl handler. See the @@RXVT_NAME@@perl(3) 1138the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
1185manpage. For example, the F<selection> extension (activated via 1139font-switching at runtime:
1186C<@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe selection>) listens for C<selection:rot13> events:
1187 1140
1188 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
1189 1143
1190Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping 1144Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more
1191will match if at I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and 1145info):
1192no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
1193means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide
1194definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined
1195mappings themselves.
1196 1146
1197Unfortunately, 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
1198if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s 1157For example if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable
1199C<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
1200user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement: 1159"holes" into the user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement:
1201 1160

1205The 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
1206of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for 1165of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
1207C<Shift-Insert>. 1166C<Shift-Insert>.
1208 1167
1209The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to 1168=item builtin-string:
1210the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
1211font-switching at runtime:
1212 1169
1213 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007 1170This action is mainly useful to restore string mappings for keys that
1214 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.
1215 1175
1216Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more 1176An example might make it clearer: @@RXVT_NAME@@ normally pastes the
1217info): 1177selection when you press C<Shift-Insert>. With the following bindings, it
1178would instead emit the (undocumented, but what applications running in the
1179terminal might expect) sequence C<ESC [ 2 $> instead:
1218 1180
1219 URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t 1181 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin-string:
1220 URxvt.keysym.M-C-4: command:\033[8;48;110t 1182 URxvt.keysym.C-S-Insert: builtin:
1183
1184The first line disables the paste functionality for that key
1185combination, and the second reinstates the default behaviour for
1186C<Control-Shift-Insert>, which would otherwise be overridden.
1187
1188Similarly, to let applications gain access to the C<C-M-c> (copy to
1189clipboard) and C<C-M-v> (paste clipboard) key combination, you can do
1190this:
1191
1192 URxvt.keysym.C-M-c: builtin-string:
1193 URxvt.keysym.C-M-v: builtin-string:
1194
1195=item EXTENSION:STRING

1198extension of the same name. The extension will be loaded automatically if
1199necessary.
1200
1201Not all extensions define key actions, but popular extensions that do
1202include the I<selection> and I<matcher> extensions (documented in their
1203own manpages, @@RXVT_NAME@@-selection(1) and @@RXVT_NAME@@-matcher(1),
