1140any combination of B<ISOLevel3>, B<AppKeypad>, B<Control>, B<NumLock>, 1136C<Ctrl-Shift-BackSpace> to various actions, such as outputting a different

1143B<2>, B<3>, B<4>, B<5>. 1139extension might provide.
1140
1141The key combination that triggers the action, I<sym>, has the following format:
1142
1143 (modifiers-)key
1144
1145Where I<modifiers> can be any combination of the following full or
1146abbreviated modifier names:
1147
1148=begin table
1149
1150 B<ISOLevel3> B<I>

1145The B<NumLock>, B<Meta> and B<ISOLevel3> modifiers are usually aliased to 1165The B<NumLock>, B<Meta> and B<ISOLevel3> modifiers are usually aliased to
1146whatever modifier the NumLock key, Meta/Alt keys or ISO Level3 Shift/AltGr 1166whatever modifier the NumLock key, Meta/Alt keys or ISO Level3 Shift/AltGr
1147keys are being mapped. B<AppKeypad> is a synthetic modifier mapped to the 1167keys are being mapped. B<AppKeypad> is a synthetic modifier mapped to the
1148current application keymap mode state. 1168current application keymap mode state.
1149 1169
1150The spellings of I<key> can be obtained by using B<xev>(1) command or 1170Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a key mapping will
1151searching keysym macros from B</usr/X11R6/include/X11/keysymdef.h> and 1171match if I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and no other
1172key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That means that
1173defining a mapping for C<a> will automatically provide definitions for
1174C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined mappings
1175themselves. See the C<builtin:> action, below, for a way to work around
1176this when this is a problem.
1177
1178The spelling of I<key> depends on your implementation of X. An easy way to
1179find a key name is to use the B<xev>(1) command. You can find a list by
1180looking for the C<XK_> macros in the B<X11/keysymdef.h> include file (omit
1152omitting the prefix B<XK_>. Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex 1181the C<XK_> prefix). Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex keysym
1153keysym value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>). Note that the lookup of I<sym>s is not 1182value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>).
1154performed in an exact manner; however, the closest match is assured.
1155 1183
1156I<string> may contain escape values (C<\n>: newline, C<\000>: octal 1184As with any resource value, the I<action> string may contain backslash
1185escape sequences (C<\n>: newline, C<\\>: backslash, C<\000>: octal
1157number), see RESOURCES in C<man 7 X> for further details. 1186number), see RESOURCES in C<man 7 X> for further details.
1158 1187
1159You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a I<string> 1188An action starts with an action prefix that selects a certain type
1160with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where the delimiter `/' 1189of action, followed by a colon. An action string without colons is
1190interpreted as a literal string to pass to the tty (as if it was
1191prefixed with C<string:>).
1192
1193The following action prefixes are known - extensions can provide
1194additional prefixes:
1195
1196=over
1197
1198=item string:STRING
1199
1200If the I<action> starts with C<string:> (or otherwise contains no colons),
1201then the remaining C<STRING> will be passed to the program running in the
1202terminal. For example, you could replace whatever Shift-Tab outputs by the
1203string C<echo rm -rf /> followed by a newline:
1204
1205 URxvt.keysym.Shift-Tab: string:echo rm -rf /\n
1206
1207This could in theory be used to completely redefine your keymap.
1208
1209In addition, for actions of this type, you can define a range of
1210keysyms in one shot by loading the C<keysym-list> perl extension and
1211providing an I<action> with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where
1161should be a character not used by the strings. 1212the delimiter `/' should be a character not used by the strings.
1162 1213
1163Its usage can be demonstrated by an example: 1214Its usage can be demonstrated by an example:
1164 1215
1165 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<M-C-|abc|> 1216 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<|abc|>
1166 1217
1167The above line is equivalent to the following three lines: 1218The above line is equivalent to the following three lines:
1168 1219
1169 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \033<M-C-a> 1220 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: string:\033<a>

1225
1173If I<string> takes the form of C<command:STRING>, the specified B<STRING> 1226If I<action> takes the form of C<command:STRING>, the specified B<STRING>
1174is interpreted and executed as @@RXVT_NAME@@'s control sequence. For 1227is interpreted and executed as @@RXVT_NAME@@'s control sequence (basically
1228the opposite of C<string:> - instead of sending it to the program running
1229in the terminal, it will be treated as if it were program output). This is
1230most useful to feed command sequences into @@RXVT_NAME@@.
1231
1175example the following means "change the current locale to C<zh_CN.GBK> 1232For example the following means "change the current locale to C<zh_CN.GBK>

1182manpage. For example, the F<selection> extension (activated via 1239font-switching at runtime:
1183C<@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe selection>) listens for C<selection:rot13> events:
1184 1240
1185 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: perl:selection:rot13 1241 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007
1242 URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007
1186 1243
1187Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping 1244Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more
1188will match if I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and 1245info):
1189no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
1190means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide
1191definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined
1192mappings themselves.
1193 1246
1194Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example 1247 URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t
1248 URxvt.keysym.M-C-4: command:\033[8;48;110t
1249
1250=item builtin:
1251
1252The builtin action is the action that @@RXVT_NAME@@ would execute if no
1253key binding existed for the key combination. The obvious use is to undo
1254the effect of existing bindings. The not so obvious use is to reinstate
1255bindings when another binding overrides too many modifiers.
1256
1195if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s 1257For example if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable
1196C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into the 1258@@RXVT_NAME@@'s C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke
1197user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement: 1259"holes" into the user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement:
1198 1260

1200 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin: 1262 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin:

1202The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination 1264The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination
1203of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for 1265of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
1204C<Shift-Insert>. 1266C<Shift-Insert>.
1205 1267
1206The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to 1268=item builtin-string:
1207the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
1208font-switching at runtime:
1209 1269
1210 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007 1270This action is mainly useful to restore string mappings for keys that
1211 URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007 1271have predefined actions in @@RXVT_NAME@@. The exact semantics are a bit
1272difficult to explain - basically, this action will send the string to the
1273application that would be sent if @@RXVT_NAME@@ wouldn't have a built-in
1274action for it.
1212 1275
1213Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more 1276An example might make it clearer: @@RXVT_NAME@@ normally pastes the
1214info): 1277selection when you press C<Shift-Insert>. With the following bindings, it
1278would instead emit the (undocumented, but what applications running in the
1279terminal might expect) sequence C<ESC [ 2 $> instead:
1215 1280
1216 URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t 1281 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin-string:
1217 URxvt.keysym.M-C-4: command:\033[8;48;110t 1282 URxvt.keysym.C-S-Insert: builtin:
1283
1284The first line disables the paste functionality for that key
1285combination, and the second reinstates the default behaviour for
1286C<Control-Shift-Insert>, which would otherwise be overridden.
1287
1288Similarly, to let applications gain access to the C<C-M-c> (copy to
1289clipboard) and C<C-M-v> (paste clipboard) key combination, you can do
1290this:
1291
1292 URxvt.keysym.C-M-c: builtin-string:
1293 URxvt.keysym.C-M-v: builtin-string:

1299be loaded automatically if necessary.
