		1127	An action starts with an action prefix that selects a certain type
		1128	of action, followed by a colon. An action string without colons is
		1129	interpreted as a literal string to pass to the tty (as if it was
		1130	prefixed with C<string:>).
		1131
		1132	The following action prefixes are known - extensions can provide
		1133	additional prefixes:
		1134
		1135	=over 4
		1136
		1137	=item string:STRING
		1138
		1139	If the I<action> starts with C<string:> (or otherwise contains no colons),
		1140	then the remaining C<STRING> will be passed to the program running in the
		1141	terminal. For example, you could replace whatever Shift-Tab outputs by the
		1142	string C<echo rm -rf /> followed by a newline:
		1143
		1144	URxvt.keysym.Shift-Tab: string:echo rm -rf /\n
		1145
		1146	This could in theory be used to completely redefine your keymap.
		1147
		1148	In addition, for actions of this type, you can define a range of
		1149	keysyms in one shot by loading the C<keysym-list> perl extension and
		1150	providing an I<action> with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where
		1151	the delimiter `/' should be a character not used by the strings.
		1152
		1153	Its usage can be demonstrated by an example:
		1154
		1155	URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list\|\033<\|abc\|>
		1156
		1157	The above line is equivalent to the following three lines:
		1158
		1159	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: string:\033<a>
		1160	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x62: string:\033<b>
		1161	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x63: string:\033<c>
		1162
		1163	=item command:STRING

		1167	the opposite of C<string:> - instead of sending it to the program running

		1169	most useful to feed command sequences into @@RXVT_NAME@@.

1176	manpage. For example, the F<selection> extension (activated via	1178	font-switching at runtime:
1177	C<@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe selection>) listens for C<selection:rot13> events:
1178		1179
1179	URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: perl:selection:rot13	1180	URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007

1183	no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
1184	means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide
1185	definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined
1186	mappings themselves.
1187		1185
1188	Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example	1186	URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t

		1193	the effect of existing bindings. The not so obvious use is to reinstate
		1194	bindings when another binding overrides too many modifiers.

1200	The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to	1207	=item builtin-string:
1201	the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
1202	font-switching at runtime:
1203		1208
1204	URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007	1209	This action is mainly useful to restore string mappings for keys that

		1211	difficult to explain - basically, this action will send the string to the
		1212	application that would be sent if @@RXVT_NAME@@ wouldn't have a built-in
		1213	action for it.
1206		1214

		1223	The first line disables the paste functionality for that key
		1224	combination, and the second reinstates the default behaviour for

		1226
		1227	Similarly, to let applications gain access to the C<C-M-c> (copy to
		1228	clipboard) and C<C-M-v> (paste clipboard) key combination, you can do
		1229	this:
		1230
