		496	create an extra subwindow for @@RXVT_NAME@@ and leave it alone.
		497
		498	The window will not be destroyed when @@RXVT_NAME@@ exits.
		499
		500	It might be useful to know that @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not close file

		502	can use file descriptors to communicate with the programs within the
		503	terminal. This works regardless of whether the C<-embed> option was used or
		504	not.
		505
		506	Here is a short Gtk2-perl snippet that illustrates how this option can be
		507	used (a longer example is in F<doc/embed>):
		508
		509	my $rxvt = new Gtk2::Socket;
		510	$rxvt->signal_connect_after (realize => sub {
		511	my $xid = $_[0]->window->get_xid;

		517	Tells @@RXVT_NAME@@ NOT to execute any commands or create a new pty/tty

		519	useful if you want to drive @@RXVT_NAME@@ as a generic terminal emulator
		520	without having to run a program within it.
		521
		522	If this switch is given, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not create any utmp/wtmp
		523	entries and will not tinker with pty/tty permissions - you have to do that
		524	yourself if you want that.
		525
		526	As an extremely special case, specifying C<-1> will completely suppress
		527	pty/tty operations, which is probably only useful in conjunction with some
		528	perl extension that manages the terminal.
		529
		530	Here is a example in perl that illustrates how this option can be used (a
		531	longer example is in F<doc/pty-fd>):

		535

		1172
		1173	If I<string> takes the form of C<command:STRING>, the specified B<STRING>
		1174	is interpreted and executed as @@RXVT_NAME@@'s control sequence. For
		1175	example the following means "change the current locale to C<zh_CN.GBK>
		1176	when Control-Meta-c is being pressed":
		1177
		1178	URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007
		1179
		1180	If I<string> takes the form C<perl:STRING>, then the specified B<STRING>
		1181	is passed to the C<on_user_command> perl handler. See the @@RXVT_NAME@@perl(3)
		1182	manpage. For example, the F<selection> extension (activated via
		1183	C<@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe selection>) listens for C<selection:rot13> events:
		1184
		1185	URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: perl:selection:rot13
		1186
		1187	Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping
		1188	will match if I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and
		1189	no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
		1190	means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide
		1191	definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined
		1192	mappings themselves.
		1193
		1194	Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example
		1195	if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s
		1196	C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into the
		1197	user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement:
		1198
		1199	URxvt.keysym.Insert: <my insert key sequence>
		1200	URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin:
		1201
		1202	The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination
		1203	of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
		1204	C<Shift-Insert>.
		1205
		1206	The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to
		1207	the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
		1208	font-switching at runtime:
		1209
		1210	URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007
		1211	URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007

		1229	example, C<default,-selection> will use all the default extension except
		1230	C<selection>.
		1231
		1232	Extension names can also be followed by an argument in angle brackets
		1233	(e.g. C<< searchable-scrollback<M-s> >>, which binds the hotkey for

		1511	=head2 ALPHA CHANNEL SUPPORT
		1512
		1513	If Xft support has been compiled in and as long as Xft/Xrender/X don't get
		1514	their act together, rxvt-unicode will do it's own alpha channel management:
		1515
		1516	You can prefix any colour with an opaqueness percentage enclosed in
		1517	brackets, i.e. C<[percent]>, where C<percent> is a decimal percentage
		1518	(0-100) that specifies the opacity of the colour, where C<0> is completely
		1519	transparent and C<100> is completely opaque. For example, C<[50]red> is a
		1520	half-transparent red, while C<[95]#00ff00> is an almost opaque green. This
		1521	is the recommended format to specify transparency values, and works with
		1522	all ways to specify a colour.
		1523
		1524	For complete control, rxvt-unicode also supports
		1525	C<rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa> (exactly four hex digits/component) colour
		1526	specifications, where the additional C<aaaa> component specifies opacity
		1527	(alpha) values. The minimum value of C<0000> is completely transparent,
		1528	while C<ffff> is completely opaque). The two example colours from
		1529	earlier could also be specified as C<rgba:ff00/0000/0000/8000> and
		1530	C<rgba:0000/ff00/0000/f332>.
		1531
		1532	You probably need to specify B<"-depth 32">, too, to force a visual with
		1533	alpha channels, and have the luck that your X-server uses ARGB pixel
		1534	layout, as X is far from just supporting ARGB visuals out of the box, and
		1535	rxvt-unicode just fudges around.
		1536
		1537	For example, the following selects an almost completely transparent black
		1538	background, and an almost opaque pink foreground:
		1539
		1540	@@RXVT_NAME@@ -depth 32 -bg rgba:0000/0000/0000/4444 -fg "[80]pink"
		1541
		1542	When not using a background image, then the interpretation of the
		1543	alpha channel is up to your compositing manager (most interpret it as
		1544	transparency of course).
		1545
		1546	When using a background pixmap or pseudo-transparency, then the background
		1547	colour will always behave as if it were completely transparent (so the
		1548	background image shows instead), regardless of how it was specified, while
		1549	other colours will either be transparent as specified (the background
		1550	image will show through) on servers supporting the RENDER extension, or
		1551	fully opaque on servers not supporting the RENDER EXTENSION.
		1552
		1553	Please note that due to bugs in Xft, specifying alpha values might result
		1554	in garbage being displayed when the X-server does not support the RENDER
		1555	extension.

881
882	=item Why do the characters look ugly?
883
884	=item How does rxvt-unicode choose fonts?
885
886	Most fonts do not contain the full range of Unicode, which is
887	fine. Chances are that the font you (or the admin/package maintainer of
888	your system/os) have specified does not cover all the characters you want
889	to display.
890
891	B<rxvt-unicode> makes a best-effort try at finding a replacement
892	font. Often the result is fine, but sometimes the chosen font looks
893	bad. In that case, select a font of your taste and add it to the font
894	list, e.g.:
895
896	@@RXVT_NAME@@ -fn basefont,font2,font3...
897
898	When rxvt-unicode sees a character, it will first look at the base
899	font. If the base font does not contain the character, it will go to the
900	next font, and so on.
901
902	The only limitation is that all the fonts must not be larger than the base
903	font, as the base font defines the principial cell size, which must be the
904	same due to the way terminals work.
905
906	=item Why do some chinese characters look so different than others?
907
908	This is because there is a difference between script and language --
909	rxvt-unicode does not know which language the text that is output
910	is, as it only knows the unicode character codes. If rxvt-unicode
911	first sees a japanese character, it might choose a japanese font for
912	it. Subseqzuent japanese characters will take that font. Now, many chinese
913	characters aren't represented in japanese fonts, so when the first
914	non-japanese character comes up, rxvt-unicode will look for a chinese font
915	-- unfortunately at this point, it will still use the japanese font for
916	japanese characters that are also chinese.
917
918	The workaround is easy: just tag a chinese font at the end of your font
919	list (see the previous question). The key is to view the font list as
920	a preference list: If you expect more japanese, list a japanese font
921	first. If you expect more chinese, put a chinese font first.
922
923	In the future it might be possible to switch preferences at runtime (the
924	internal data structure has no problem with using different fonts for
925	the same character at the same time, but no interface for this has been
926	designed yet).
927
928	=item Mouse cut/paste suddenly no longer works.
929
930	Make sure that mouse reporting is actually turned off since killing
931	some editors prematurely may leave the mouse in mouse report mode. I've
932	heard that tcsh may use mouse reporting unless it otherwise specified. A
933	quick check is to see if cut/paste works when the Alt or Shift keys are
934	depressed. See @@RXVT_NAME@@(7)
935
936	=item What's with this bold/blink stuff?
937
938	If no bold colour is set via C<colorBD:>, bold will invert text using the
939	standard foreground colour.
940
941	For the standard background colour, blinking will actually make the
942	text blink when compiled with C<--enable-blinking>. with standard
943	colours. Without C<--enable-blinking>, the blink attribute will be
944	ignored.
945
946	On ANSI colours, bold/blink attributes are used to set high-intensity
947	foreground/background colors.
948
949	color0-7 are the low-intensity colors.
950
951	color8-15 are the corresponding high-intensity colors.
952
953	=item I don't like the screen colors. How do I change them?
954
955	You can change the screen colors at run-time using F<~/.Xdefaults>
956	resources (or as long-options).
957
958	Here are values that are supposed to resemble a VGA screen,
959	including the murky brown that passes for low-intensity yellow:
960
961	Rxvt*color0: #000000
962	Rxvt*color1: #A80000
963	Rxvt*color2: #00A800
964	Rxvt*color3: #A8A800
965	Rxvt*color4: #0000A8
966	Rxvt*color5: #A800A8
967	Rxvt*color6: #00A8A8
968	Rxvt*color7: #A8A8A8
969
970	Rxvt*color8: #000054
971	Rxvt*color9: #FF0054
972	Rxvt*color10: #00FF54
973	Rxvt*color11: #FFFF54
974	Rxvt*color12: #0000FF
975	Rxvt*color13: #FF00FF
976	Rxvt*color14: #00FFFF
977	Rxvt*color15: #FFFFFF
978
979	=item What's with the strange Backspace/Delete key behaviour?
980
981	Assuming that the physical Backspace key corresponds to the
982	BackSpace keysym (not likely for Linux ... see the following
983	question) there are two standard values that can be used for
984	Backspace: C<^H> and C<^?>.
985
986	Historically, either value is correct, but rxvt-unicode adopts the debian
987	policy of using C<^?> when unsure, because it's the one only only correct
988	choice :).
989
990	Rxvt-unicode tries to inherit the current stty settings and uses the value
991	of `erase' to guess the value for backspace. If rxvt-unicode wasn't
992	started from a terminal (say, from a menu or by remote shell), then the
993	system value of `erase', which corresponds to CERASE in <termios.h>, will
994	be used (which may not be the same as your stty setting).
995
996	For starting a new rxvt-unicode:
997
998	# use Backspace = ^H
999	$ stty erase ^H
1000	$ @@RXVT_NAME@@
1001
1002	# use Backspace = ^?
1003	$ stty erase ^?
1004	$ @@RXVT_NAME@@
1005
1006	Toggle with "ESC[36h" / "ESC[36l" as documented in @@RXVT_NAME@@(7).
1007
1008	For an existing rxvt-unicode:
1009
1010	# use Backspace = ^H
1011	$ stty erase ^H
1012	$ echo -n "^[[36h"
1013
1014	# use Backspace = ^?
1015	$ stty erase ^?
1016	$ echo -n "^[[36l"
1017
1018	This helps satisfy some of the Backspace discrepancies that occur, but
1019	if you use Backspace = C<^H>, make sure that the termcap/terminfo value
1020	properly reflects that.
1021
1022	The Delete key is a another casualty of the ill-defined Backspace problem.
1023	To avoid confusion between the Backspace and Delete keys, the Delete
1024	key has been assigned an escape sequence to match the vt100 for Execute
1025	(ESC[3~) and is in the supplied termcap/terminfo.
1026
1027	Some other Backspace problems:
1028
1029	some editors use termcap/terminfo,
1030	some editors (vim I'm told) expect Backspace = ^H,
1031	GNU Emacs (and Emacs-like editors) use ^H for help.
1032
1033	Perhaps someday this will all be resolved in a consistent manner.
1034
1035	=item I don't like the key-bindings. How do I change them?
1036
1037	There are some compile-time selections available via configure. Unless
1038	you have run "configure" with the C<--disable-resources> option you can
1039	use the `keysym' resource to alter the keystrings associated with keysym
1040	0xFF00 - 0xFFFF (function, cursor keys, etc).
1041
1042	Here's an example for a tn3270 session started using `@@RXVT_NAME@@ -name tn3270'

1083	=item I'm using keyboard model XXX that has extra Prior/Next/Insert keys.
1084	How do I make use of them? For example, the Sun Keyboard type 4
1085	has the following mappings that rxvt-unicode doesn't recognize.
1086
1087	KP_Insert == Insert
1088	F22 == Print
1089	F27 == Home
1090	F29 == Prior
1091	F33 == End
1092	F35 == Next
1093
1094	Rather than have rxvt-unicode try to accomodate all the various possible keyboard
1095	mappings, it is better to use `xmodmap' to remap the keys as required for
1096	your particular machine.
1097
1098	=item How do I distinguish if I'm running rxvt-unicode or a regular xterm?
1099	I need this to decide about setting colors etc.
1100
1101	rxvt and rxvt-unicode always export the variable "COLORTERM", so you can
1102	check and see if that is set. Note that several programs, JED, slrn,
1103	Midnight Commander automatically check this variable to decide whether or
1104	not to use color.
1105
1106	=item How do I set the correct, full IP address for the DISPLAY variable?
1107
1108	If you've compiled rxvt-unicode with DISPLAY_IS_IP and ahve enabled
1109	insecure mode then it is possible to use the following shell script
1110	snippets to correctly set the display. If your version of rxvt-unicode
1111	wasn't also compiled with ESCZ_ANSWER (as assumed in these snippets) then
1112	the COLORTERM variable can be used to distinguish rxvt-unicode from a
1113	regular xterm.
