		1484	=head2 ALPHA CHANNEL SUPPORT
		1485
		1486	If Xft support has been compiled in and as long as Xft/Xrender/X don't get
		1487	their act together, rxvt-unicode will do it's own alpha channel management:
		1488
		1489	You can prefix any color with an opaquenes percentage enclosed in
		1490	brackets, i.e. C<[percent]>, where C<percent> is a decimal percentage
		1491	(0-100) that specifies the opacity of the color, where C<0> is completely
		1492	transparent and C<100> is completely opaque. For example, C<[50]red> is a
		1493	half-transparent red, while C<[95]#00ff00> is an almost opaque green. This
		1494	is the recommended format to specify transparency values, and works with
		1495	all ways to specify a colour.
		1496
		1497	For complete control, rxvt-unicode also supports
		1498	C<rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa> (exactly four hex digits/component) colour
		1499	specifications, where the additional C<aaaa> component specifies opacity
		1500	(alpha) values. The minimum value of C<0000> is completely transparent,
		1501	while C<ffff> is completely opaque). The two example colours from
		1502	earlier could also be specified as C<rgba:ff00/0000/0000/8000> and
		1503	C<rgba:0000/ff00/0000/f332>.
		1504
		1505	You probably need to specify B<"-depth 32">, too, to force a visual with
		1506	alpha channels, and have the luck that your X-server uses ARGB pixel
		1507	layout, as X is far from just supporting ARGB visuals out of the box, and
		1508	rxvt-unicode just fudges around.
		1509
		1510	For example, the following selects an almost completely transparent black
		1511	background, and an almost opaque pink foreground:
		1512
		1513	@@RXVT_NAME@@ -depth 32 -bg rgba:0000/0000/0000/4444 -fg "[80]pink"
		1514
		1515	When not using a background image, then the interpretation of the
		1516	alpha channel is up to your compositing manager (most interpret it as
		1517	transparency of course).
		1518
		1519	When using a background pixmap or pseudo-transparency, then the background
		1520	colour will always behave as if it were completely transparent (so the
		1521	background image shows instead), regardless of how it was specified, while
		1522	other colours will either be transparent as specified (the background
		1523	image will show through) on servers supporting the RENDER extension, or
		1524	fully opaque on servers not supporting the RENDER EXTENSION.
		1525
		1526	Please note that due to bugs in Xft, specifying alpha values might result
		1527	in garbage being displayed when the X-server does not support the RENDER
		1528	extension.
