27 | =head1 RXVT-UNICODE VS. RXVT |
|
|
28 | |
|
|
29 | Unlike the original rxvt, B<rxvt-unicode> stores all text in Unicode |
|
|
30 | internally. That means it can store and display most scripts in the |
|
|
31 | world. Being a terminal emulator, however, some things are very difficult, |
|
|
32 | especially cursive scripts such as arabic, vertically written scripts |
|
|
33 | like mongolian or scripts requiring extremely complex combining rules, |
|
|
34 | like tibetan or devanagari. Don't expect pretty output when using these |
|
|
35 | scripts. Most other scripts, latin, cyrillic, kanji, thai etc. should work |
|
|
36 | fine, though. A somewhat difficult case are right-to-left scripts, such |
|
|
37 | as hebrew: B<rxvt-unicode> adopts the view that bidirectional algorithms |
|
|
38 | belong in the application, not the terminal emulator (too many things -- |
|
|
39 | such as cursor-movement while editing -- break otherwise), but that might |
|
|
40 | change. |
|
|
41 | |
|
|
42 | If you are looking for a terminal that supports more exotic scripts, let |
|
|
43 | me recommend C<mlterm>, which is a very user friendly, lean and clean |
|
|
44 | terminal emulator. In fact, the reason rxvt-unicode was born was solely |
|
|
45 | because the author couldn't get C<mlterm> to use one font for latin1 and |
|
|
46 | another for japanese. |
|
|
47 | |
|
|
48 | Therefore another design rationale was the use of multiple fonts to |
|
|
49 | display characters: The idea of a single unicode font which many other |
|
|
50 | programs force onto its users never made sense to me: You should be able |
|
|
51 | to choose any font for any script freely. |
|
|
52 | |
|
|
53 | Apart from that, rxvt-unicode is also much better internationalised than |
|
|
54 | its predecessor, supports things such as XFT and ISO 14755 that are handy |
|
|
55 | in i18n-environments, is faster, and has a lot bugs less than the original |
|
|
56 | rxvt. This all in addition to dozens of other small improvements. |
|
|
57 | |
|
|
58 | It is still faithfully following the original rxvt idea of being lean |
|
|
59 | and nice on resources: for example, you can still configure rxvt-unicode |
|
|
60 | without most of its features to get a lean binary. It also comes with |
|
|
61 | a client/daemon pair that lets you open any number of terminal windows |
|
|
62 | from within a single process, which makes startup time very fast and |
|
|
63 | drastically reduces memory usage. See @@RXVT_NAME@@d(1) (daemon) and |
|
|
64 | @@RXVT_NAME@@c(1) (client). |
|
|
65 | |
|
|
66 | It also makes technical information about escape sequences (which have |
|
|
67 | been extended) more accessible: see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for technical |
|
|
68 | reference documentation (escape sequences etc.). |

484 | which enables applications to easily embed a terminal. |
|
|
485 | |
|
|
486 | Right now, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will first unmap/map the specified window, so it |
|
|
487 | shouldn't be a top-level window. @@RXVT_NAME@@ will also reconfigure it |
|
|
488 | quite a bit, so don't expect it to keep some specific state. It's best to |
|
|
489 | create an extra subwindow for @@RXVT_NAME@@ and leave it alone. |
|
|
490 | |
|
|
491 | The window will not be destroyed when @@RXVT_NAME@@ exits. |
|
|
492 | |
|
|
493 | It might be useful to know that @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not close file |
|
|
494 | descriptors passed to it (except for stdin/out/err, of course), so you |
|
|
495 | can use file descriptors to communicate with the programs within the |
|
|
496 | terminal. This works regardless of whether the C<-embed> option was used or |
|
|
497 | not. |
|
|
498 | |
|
|
499 | Here is a short Gtk2-perl snippet that illustrates how this option can be |
|
|
500 | used (a longer example is in F<doc/embed>): |
|
|
501 | |
|
|
502 | my $rxvt = new Gtk2::Socket; |
|
|
503 | $rxvt->signal_connect_after (realize => sub { |
|
|
504 | my $xid = $_[0]->window->get_xid; |
|
|
505 | system "@@RXVT_NAME@@ -embed $xid &"; |
|
|
506 | }); |
|
|
507 | |
|
|
508 | =item B<-pty-fd> I<file descriptor> |
|
|
509 | |
|
|
510 | Tells @@RXVT_NAME@@ NOT to execute any commands or create a new pty/tty |
|
|
511 | pair but instead use the given file descriptor as the tty master. This is |
|
|
512 | useful if you want to drive @@RXVT_NAME@@ as a generic terminal emulator |
|
|
513 | without having to run a program within it. |
|
|
514 | |
|
|
515 | If this switch is given, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not create any utmp/wtmp |
|
|
516 | entries and will not tinker with pty/tty permissions - you have to do that |
|
|
517 | yourself if you want that. |
|
|
518 | |
|
|
519 | As an extremely special case, specifying C<-1> will completely suppress |
|
|
520 | pty/tty operations, which is probably only useful in conjunction with some |
|
|
521 | perl extension that manages the terminal. |
|
|
522 | |
|
|
523 | Here is a example in perl that illustrates how this option can be used (a |
|
|
524 | longer example is in F<doc/pty-fd>): |
|
|
525 | |
|
|
526 | use IO::Pty; |
|
|
527 | use Fcntl; |
|
|
528 | |
|
|
529 | my $pty = new IO::Pty; |
|
|
530 | fcntl $pty, F_SETFD, 0; # clear close-on-exec |
|
|
531 | system "@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pty-fd " . (fileno $pty) . "&"; |
|
|
532 | close $pty; |
|
|
533 | |
|
|
534 | # now communicate with rxvt |
|
|
535 | my $slave = $pty->slave; |
|
|
536 | while (<$slave>) { print $slave "got <$_>\n" } |
|
|
537 | |
|
|
538 | Note that, despite what the name might imply, the file descriptor does not |
|
|
539 | need to be a pty, it can be a bi-directional pipe as well (e.g. a unix |
|
|
540 | domain or tcp socket). While tty operations cannot be done in this case, |
|
|
541 | B<@@RXVT_NAME@@> can still be remote controlled with it: |
|
|
542 | |
|
|
543 | use Socket; |
|
|
544 | use Fcntl; |
|
|
545 | |
|
|
546 | socketpair my $URXVT, my $slave, Socket::AF_UNIX, Socket::SOCK_STREAM, Socket::PF_UNSPEC; |
|
|
547 | fcntl $slave, Fcntl::F_SETFD, 0; |
|
|
548 | system "exec @@RXVT_NAME|| -pty-fd " . (fileno $slave) . " &"; |
|
|
549 | close $slave; |
|
|
550 | |
|
|
551 | syswrite $URXVT, "Type a secret password: "; |
|
|
552 | my $secret = do { local $/ = "\r"; <$URXVT> }; |

1122 | extension might provide. |
|
|
1123 | |
|
|
1124 | The key combination that triggers the action, I<sym>, has the following format: |
|
|
1125 | |
|
|
1126 | (modifiers-)key |
|
|
1127 | |
|
|
1128 | Where I<modifiers> can be any combination of the following full or |
|
|
1129 | abbreviated modifier names: |
|
|
1130 | |
|
|
1131 | =begin table |

1144 | B<Mod5> B<5> |
|
|
1145 | |
|
|
1146 | =end table |
|
|
1147 | |
|
|
1148 | The B<NumLock>, B<Meta> and B<ISOLevel3> modifiers are usually aliased to |
|
|
1149 | whatever modifier the NumLock key, Meta/Alt keys or ISO Level3 Shift/AltGr |
|
|
1150 | keys are being mapped. B<AppKeypad> is a synthetic modifier mapped to the |
|
|
1151 | current application keymap mode state. |
|
|
1152 | |
|
|
1153 | Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a key mapping will |
|
|
1154 | match if I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and no other |
|
|
1155 | key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That means that |
|
|
1156 | defining a mapping for C<a> will automatically provide definitions for |
|
|
1157 | C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined mappings |
|
|
1158 | themselves. See the C<builtin:> action, below, for a way to work around |
|
|
1159 | this when this is a problem. |
|
|
1160 | |
|
|
1161 | The spelling of I<key> depends on your implementation of X. An easy way to |
|
|
1162 | find a key name is to use the B<xev>(1) command. You can find a list by |
|
|
1163 | looking for the C<XK_> macros in the B<X11/keysymdef.h> include file (omit |
|
|
1164 | the C<XK_> prefix). Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex keysym |
|
|
1165 | value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>). |
|
|
1166 | |
|
|
1167 | As with any resource value, the I<action> string may contain backslash |
|
|
1168 | escape sequences (C<\n>: newline, C<\\>: backslash, C<\000>: octal |
|
|
1169 | number), see RESOURCES in C<man 7 X> for further details. |
|
|
1170 | |
|
|
1171 | An action starts with an action prefix that selects a certain type |
|
|
1172 | of action, followed by a colon. An action string without colons is |
|
|
1173 | interpreted as a literal string to pass to the tty (as if it was |
|
|
1174 | prefixed with C<string:>). |
|
|
1175 | |
|
|
1176 | The following action prefixes are known - extensions can provide |
|
|
1177 | additional prefixes: |
|
|
1178 | |
|
|
1179 | =over |
|
|
1180 | |
|
|
1181 | =item string:STRING |
|
|
1182 | |
|
|
1183 | If the I<action> starts with C<string:> (or otherwise contains no colons), |
|
|
1184 | then the remaining C<STRING> will be passed to the program running in the |
|
|
1185 | terminal. For example, you could replace whatever Shift-Tab outputs by the |
|
|
1186 | string C<echo rm -rf /> followed by a newline: |
|
|
1187 | |
|
|
1188 | URxvt.keysym.Shift-Tab: string:echo rm -rf /\n |
|
|
1189 | |
|
|
1190 | This could in theory be used to completely redefine your keymap. |
|
|
1191 | |
|
|
1192 | In addition, for actions of this type, you can define a range of |
|
|
1193 | keysyms in one shot by loading the C<keysym-list> perl extension and |
|
|
1194 | providing an I<action> with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where |
|
|
1195 | the delimiter `/' should be a character not used by the strings. |
|
|
1196 | |
|
|
1197 | Its usage can be demonstrated by an example: |
|
|
1198 | |
|
|
1199 | URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<|abc|> |
|
|
1200 | |
|
|
1201 | The above line is equivalent to the following three lines: |
|
|
1202 | |
|
|
1203 | URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: string:\033<a> |
|
|
1204 | URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x62: string:\033<b> |
|
|
1205 | URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x63: string:\033<c> |
|
|
1206 | |
|
|
1207 | =item command:STRING |
|
|
1208 | |
|
|
1209 | If I<action> takes the form of C<command:STRING>, the specified B<STRING> |
|
|
1210 | is interpreted and executed as @@RXVT_NAME@@'s control sequence (basically |
|
|
1211 | the opposite of C<string:> - instead of sending it to the program running |
|
|
1212 | in the terminal, it will be treated as if it were program output). This is |
|
|
1213 | most useful to feed command sequences into @@RXVT_NAME@@. |
|
|
1214 | |
|
|
1215 | For example the following means "change the current locale to C<zh_CN.GBK> |
|
|
1216 | when Control-Meta-c is being pressed": |
|
|
1217 | |
|
|
1218 | URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007 |
|
|
1219 | |
|
|
1220 | The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to |
|
|
1221 | the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited |
|
|
1222 | font-switching at runtime: |
|
|
1223 | |
|
|
1224 | URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007 |
|
|
1225 | URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007 |
|
|
1226 | |
|
|
1227 | Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more |
|
|
1228 | info): |
|
|
1229 | |
|
|
1230 | URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t |
|
|
1231 | URxvt.keysym.M-C-4: command:\033[8;48;110t |
|
|
1232 | |
|
|
1233 | =item builtin: |
|
|
1234 | |
|
|
1235 | The builtin action is the action that @@RXVT_NAME@@ would execute if no |
|
|
1236 | key binding existed for the key combination. The obvious use is to undo |
|
|
1237 | the effect of existing bindings. The not so obvious use is to reinstate |
|
|
1238 | bindings when another binding overrides too many modifiers. |
|
|
1239 | |
|
|
1240 | For example if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable |
|
|
1241 | @@RXVT_NAME@@'s C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke |
|
|
1242 | "holes" into the user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement: |
|
|
1243 | |

1247 | The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination |

|
1252 | |
|
|
1253 | This action is mainly useful to restore string mappings for keys that |
|
|
1254 | have predefined actions in @@RXVT_NAME@@. The exact semantics are a bit |
|
|
1255 | difficult to explain - basically, this action will send the string to the |
|
|
1256 | application that would be sent if @@RXVT_NAME@@ wouldn't have a built-in |
|
|
1257 | action for it. |
|
|
1258 | |
|
|
1259 | An example might make it clearer: @@RXVT_NAME@@ normally pastes the |
|
|
1260 | selection when you press C<Shift-Insert>. With the following bindings, it |
|
|
1261 | would instead emit the (undocumented, but what applications running in the |
|
|
1262 | terminal might expect) sequence C<ESC [ 2 $> instead: |
|
|
1263 | |

|
1264 | URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin-string: |
|
|
1265 | URxvt.keysym.C-S-Insert: builtin: |
|

1266 | |
|
|
1267 | The first line disables the paste functionality for that key |
|
|
1268 | combination, and the second reinstates the default behaviour for |
|
|
1269 | C<Control-Shift-Insert>, which would otherwise be overridden. |
|
|
1270 | |
|
|
1271 | Similarly, to let applications gain access to the C<C-M-c> (copy to |
|
|
1272 | clipboard) and C<C-M-v> (paste clipboard) key combination, you can do |
|

1273 | this: |

1309 | Extension names can be prefixed with a C<-> sign to remove them again, in |

1310 | case they had been specified earlier. This can be useful to selectively |
|
|
1311 | disable some extensions loaded by default, or specified via the |
|
|
1312 | C<perl-ext-common> resource. For example, C<default,-selection> will use |
|
|
1313 | all the default extensions except C<selection>. |
|
|
1314 | |
|
|
1315 | To prohibit autoloading of extensions, you can prefix them with C</>, |
|
|
1316 | which will make urxvt refuse to automatically load them (this can be |
|
|
1317 | overriden, however, by specifying the extension name again without a |
|
|
1318 | prefix, though). This does not prohibit extensions themselves loading |
|
|
1319 | other extensions. For example, C<default,/background> will keep the |

1320 | C<background> extension from being loaded when a background OSC sequence |

1488 | |
|
|
1489 | Start by pressing and holding both C<Control> and C<Shift>, then enter |
|
|
1490 | hex-digits (between one and six). Releasing C<Control> and C<Shift> will |
|
|
1491 | commit the character as if it were typed directly. While holding down |
|
|
1492 | C<Control> and C<Shift> you can also enter multiple characters by pressing |
|
|
1493 | C<Space>, which will commit the current character and lets you start a new |
|
|
1494 | one. |
|
|
1495 | |
|
|
1496 | As an example of use, imagine a business card with a japanese e-mail |
|
|
1497 | address, which you cannot type. Fortunately, the card has the e-mail |
|
|
1498 | address printed as hexcodes, e.g. C<671d 65e5>. You can enter this easily |
|
|
1499 | by pressing C<Control> and C<Shift>, followed by C<6-7-1-D-SPACE-6-5-E-5>, |

|
1505 | your keyboard, if representable in the current locale encoding. |
|
|
1506 | |
|
|
1507 | Start by pressing C<Control> and C<Shift> together, then releasing |
|
|
1508 | them. The next special key (cursor keys, home etc.) you enter will not |
|
|
1509 | invoke its usual function but instead will insert the corresponding |
|
|
1510 | keycap symbol. The symbol will only be entered when the key has been |
|
|
1511 | released, otherwise pressing e.g. C<Shift> would enter the symbol for |
|
|
1512 | C<ISO Level 2 Switch>, although your intention might have been to enter a |
|
|
1513 | reverse tab (Shift-Tab). |

1521 | |

1522 | This method lets you display the unicode character code associated with |
|
|
1523 | characters already displayed. |
|
|
1524 | |
|
|
1525 | You enter this mode by holding down C<Control> and C<Shift> together, then |
|
|
1526 | pressing and holding the left mouse button and moving around. The unicode |
|
|
1527 | hex code(s) (it might be a combining character) of the character under the |
|
|
1528 | pointer is displayed until you release C<Control> and C<Shift>. |
|
|
1529 | |
|
|
1530 | In addition to the hex codes it will display the font used to draw this |
|
|
1531 | character - due to implementation reasons, characters combined with |
|
|
1532 | combining characters, line drawing characters and unknown characters will |

1555 | B<@@RXVT_NAME@@> supports direct 24-bit fg/bg RGB colour escapes |
|
|
1556 | C< ESC [ 38 ; 2 ; R ; G ; Bm > / C< ESC [ 48 ; 2; R ; G ; Bm >. However the |
|
|
1557 | number of 24-bit colours that can be used is limited: an internal 7x7x5 (256 |
|
|
1558 | colour mode) or 6x6x4 (88 colour mode) colour cube is used to index into the |
|
|
1559 | 24-bit colour space. When indexing collisions happen, the nearest old colour in |
|
|
1560 | the cube will be adapted to the new 24-bit RGB colour. That means one cannot |
|
|
1561 | use many similar 24-bit colours. It's typically not a problem in common |
|
|
1562 | scenarios. |
|

1597 | The RGB cube uses indices 16..79 (16..231) using the following formulas: |
|
|
1598 | |
|
|
1599 | index_88 = (r * 4 + g) * 4 + b + 16 # r, g, b = 0..3 |
|
|
1600 | index_256 = (r * 6 + g) * 6 + b + 16 # r, g, b = 0..5 |
|
|
1601 | |
|
|
1602 | The grayscale ramp uses indices 80..87 (232..239), from 10% to 90% in 10% |
|
|
1603 | steps (1/26 to 25/26 in 1/26 steps) - black and white are already part of |

1623 | =head2 ALPHA CHANNEL SUPPORT |
|
|
1624 | |
|
|
1625 | If Xft support has been compiled in and as long as Xft/Xrender/X don't get |
|
|
1626 | their act together, rxvt-unicode will do its own alpha channel management: |
|
|
1627 | |
|
|
1628 | You can prefix any colour with an opaqueness percentage enclosed in |
|
|
1629 | brackets, i.e. C<[percent]>, where C<percent> is a decimal percentage |
|
|
1630 | (0-100) that specifies the opacity of the colour, where C<0> is completely |
|
|
1631 | transparent and C<100> is completely opaque. For example, C<[50]red> is a |
|
|
1632 | half-transparent red, while C<[95]#00ff00> is an almost opaque green. This |
|
|
1633 | is the recommended format to specify transparency values, and works with |
|
|
1634 | all ways to specify a colour. |
|
|
1635 | |
|
|
1636 | For complete control, rxvt-unicode also supports |
|
|
1637 | C<rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa> (exactly four hex digits/component) colour |
|
|
1638 | specifications, where the additional C<aaaa> component specifies opacity |
|
|
1639 | (alpha) values. The minimum value of C<0000> is completely transparent, |
|
|
1640 | while C<ffff> is completely opaque). The two example colours from |
|
|
1641 | earlier could also be specified as C<rgba:ff00/0000/0000/8000> and |
|
|
1642 | C<rgba:0000/ff00/0000/f332>. |
|
|
1643 | |
|
|
1644 | You probably need to specify B<"-depth 32">, too, to force a visual with |
|
|
1645 | alpha channels, and have the luck that your X-server uses ARGB pixel |
|
|
1646 | layout, as X is far from just supporting ARGB visuals out of the box, and |
|
|
1647 | rxvt-unicode just fudges around. |
|
|
1648 | |
|
|
1649 | For example, the following selects an almost completely transparent black |
|
|
1650 | background, and an almost opaque pink foreground: |
|
|
1651 | |
|
|
1652 | @@RXVT_NAME@@ -depth 32 -bg rgba:0000/0000/0000/4444 -fg "[80]pink" |
|
|
1653 | |
|
|
1654 | When not using a background image, then the interpretation of the |
|
|
1655 | alpha channel is up to your compositing manager (most interpret it as |
|
|
1656 | transparency of course). |
|
|
1657 | |
|
|
1658 | When using a background pixmap or pseudo-transparency, then the background |
|
|
1659 | colour will always behave as if it were completely transparent (so the |
|
|
1660 | background image shows instead), regardless of how it was specified, while |
|
|
1661 | other colours will either be transparent as specified (the background |
|
|
1662 | image will show through) on servers supporting the RENDER extension, or |
|
|
1663 | fully opaque on servers not supporting the RENDER EXTENSION. |
|
|
1664 | |
|
|
1665 | Please note that due to bugs in Xft, specifying alpha values might result |
|
|
1666 | in garbage being displayed when the X-server does not support the RENDER |
|
|
1667 | extension. |

919 | =item What's with the strange Backspace/Delete key behaviour? |
|
|
920 | |
|
|
921 | Assuming that the physical Backspace key corresponds to the |
|
|
922 | BackSpace keysym (not likely for Linux ... see the following |
|
|
923 | question) there are two standard values that can be used for |
|
|
924 | Backspace: C<^H> and C<^?>. |
|
|
925 | |
|
|
926 | Historically, either value is correct, but rxvt-unicode adopts the debian |
|
|
927 | policy of using C<^?> when unsure, because it's the one only only correct |
|
|
928 | choice :). |
|
|
929 | |
|
|
930 | Rxvt-unicode tries to inherit the current stty settings and uses the value |
|
|
931 | of `erase' to guess the value for backspace. If rxvt-unicode wasn't |
|
|
932 | started from a terminal (say, from a menu or by remote shell), then the |
|
|
933 | system value of `erase', which corresponds to CERASE in <termios.h>, will |
|
|
934 | be used (which may not be the same as your stty setting). |
|
|
935 | |
|
|
936 | For starting a new rxvt-unicode: |
|
|
937 | |
|
|
938 | # use Backspace = ^H |
|
|
939 | $ stty erase ^H |
|
|
940 | $ @@RXVT_NAME@@ |
|
|
941 | |
|
|
942 | # use Backspace = ^? |
|
|
943 | $ stty erase ^? |
|
|
944 | $ @@RXVT_NAME@@ |
|
|
945 | |
|
|
946 | Toggle with "ESC[36h" / "ESC[36l" as documented in @@RXVT_NAME@@(7). |
|
|
947 | |
|
|
948 | For an existing rxvt-unicode: |
|
|
949 | |
|
|
950 | # use Backspace = ^H |
|
|
951 | $ stty erase ^H |
|
|
952 | $ echo -n "^[[36h" |
|
|
953 | |
|
|
954 | # use Backspace = ^? |
|
|
955 | $ stty erase ^? |
|
|
956 | $ echo -n "^[[36l" |
|
|
957 | |
|
|
958 | This helps satisfy some of the Backspace discrepancies that occur, but |
|
|
959 | if you use Backspace = C<^H>, make sure that the termcap/terminfo value |
|
|
960 | properly reflects that. |
|
|
961 | |
|
|
962 | The Delete key is a another casualty of the ill-defined Backspace problem. |
|
|
963 | To avoid confusion between the Backspace and Delete keys, the Delete |
|
|
964 | key has been assigned an escape sequence to match the vt100 for Execute |
|
|
965 | (ESC[3~) and is in the supplied termcap/terminfo. |
|
|
966 | |
|
|
967 | Some other Backspace problems: |
|
|
968 | |
|
|
969 | some editors use termcap/terminfo, |
|
|
970 | some editors (vim I'm told) expect Backspace = ^H, |
|
|
971 | GNU Emacs (and Emacs-like editors) use ^H for help. |

975 | =item I don't like the key-bindings. How do I change them? |
|
|
976 | |
|
|
977 | There are some compile-time selections available via configure. Unless |
|
|
978 | you have run "configure" with the C<--disable-resources> option you can |
|
|
979 | use the `keysym' resource to alter the keystrings associated with keysym |
|
|
980 | 0xFF00 - 0xFFFF (function, cursor keys, etc). |
|
|
981 | |
|

1023 | =item I'm using keyboard model XXX that has extra Prior/Next/Insert keys. |
|
|
1024 | How do I make use of them? For example, the Sun Keyboard type 4 |
|
|
1025 | has the following mappings that rxvt-unicode doesn't recognize. |
|
|
1026 | |
|
|
1027 | KP_Insert == Insert |
|
|
1028 | F22 == Print |
|
|
1029 | F27 == Home |
|
|
1030 | F29 == Prior |
|
|
1031 | F33 == End |
|
|
1032 | F35 == Next |
|
|
1033 | |
|
|
1034 | Rather than have rxvt-unicode try to accomodate all the various possible keyboard |
|
|
1035 | mappings, it is better to use `xmodmap' to remap the keys as required for |
|
|
1036 | your particular machine. |
|
|
1037 | |
|
|
1038 | =item How do I distinguish if I'm running rxvt-unicode or a regular xterm? |
|
|
1039 | I need this to decide about setting colors etc. |
|
|
1040 | |
|
|
1041 | rxvt and rxvt-unicode always export the variable "COLORTERM", so you can |
|
|
1042 | check and see if that is set. Note that several programs, JED, slrn, |
|
|
1043 | Midnight Commander automatically check this variable to decide whether or |
|
|
1044 | not to use color. |
|
|
1045 | |
|
|
1046 | =item How do I set the correct, full IP address for the DISPLAY variable? |
|
|
1047 | |
|
|
1048 | If you've compiled rxvt-unicode with DISPLAY_IS_IP and ahve enabled |
|
|
1049 | insecure mode then it is possible to use the following shell script |
|
|
1050 | snippets to correctly set the display. If your version of rxvt-unicode |
|
|
1051 | wasn't also compiled with ESCZ_ANSWER (as assumed in these snippets) then |
|
|
1052 | the COLORTERM variable can be used to distinguish rxvt-unicode from a |
|
|
1053 | regular xterm. |
|

|
|
1072 | |
|
|
1073 | You need to have a recent version of perl installed as F</usr/bin/perl>, |
|
|
1074 | one that comes with F<pod2man>, F<pod2text> and F<pod2html>. Then go to |
