408 | which enables applications to easily embed a terminal. |
|
|
409 | |
|
|
410 | Right now, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will first unmap/map the specified window, so it |
|
|
411 | shouldn't be a top-level window. @@RXVT_NAME@@ will also reconfigure it |
|
|
412 | quite a bit, so don't expect it to keep some specific state. It's best to |
|
|
413 | create an extra subwindow for @@RXVT_NAME@@ and leave it alone. |
|
|
414 | |
|
|
415 | The window will not be destroyed when @@RXVT_NAME@@ exits. |
|
|
416 | |
|
|
417 | It might be useful to know that @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not close file |
|
|
418 | descriptors passed to it (except for stdin/out/err, of course), so you |
|
|
419 | can use file descriptors to communicate with the programs within the |
|
|
420 | terminal. This works regardless of wether the C<-embed> option was used or |
|
|
421 | not. |
|
|
422 | |
|
|
423 | Here is a short Gtk2-perl snippet that illustrates how this option can be |
|
|
424 | used (a longer example is in F<doc/embed>): |
|
|
425 | |
|
|
426 | my $rxvt = new Gtk2::Socket; |
|
|
427 | $rxvt->signal_connect_after (realize => sub { |
|
|
428 | my $xid = $_[0]->window->get_xid; |

432 | =item B<-pty-fd> I<fileno> |
|
|

|
|
434 | Tells @@RXVT_NAME@@ NOT to execute any commands or create a new pty/tty |
|
|
435 | pair but instead use the given filehandle as the tty master. This is |
|
|
436 | useful if you want to drive @@RXVT_NAME@@ as a generic terminal emulator |
|
|
437 | without having to run a program within it. |
|
|
438 | |
|
|
439 | If this switch is given, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not create any utmp/wtmp |
|
|
440 | entries and will not tinker with pty/tty permissions - you have to do that |
|
|
441 | yourself if you want that. |
|
|
442 | |
|
|
443 | Here is a example in perl that illustrates how this option can be used (a |

|
|
1004 | should be a character not used by the strings. |
|
|
1005 | |
|
|
1006 | Its usage can be demonstrated by an example: |
|
|
1007 | |
|
|
1008 | URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<M-C-|abc|> |
|
|
1009 | |
|
|
1010 | The above line is equivalent to the following three lines: |
|
|
1011 | |
|
|
1012 | URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \033<M-C-a> |
|
|
1013 | URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x62: \033<M-C-b> |
|
|
1014 | URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x63: \033<M-C-c> |
|
|
1015 | |
|
|
1016 | If I<string> takes the form of C<command:STRING>, the specified B<STRING> |
|
|
1017 | is interpreted and executed as @@RXVT_NAME@@'s control sequence. For |
|
|
1018 | example the following means "change the current locale to C<zh_CN.GBK> |
|
|
1019 | when Control-Meta-c is being pressed": |
|
|
1020 | |
|
|
1021 | URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007 |
|
|
1022 | |
|
|
1023 | Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping |
|
|
1024 | will match if at I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and |
|
|
1025 | no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That |
|
|
1026 | means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide |
|
|
1027 | definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined |
|
|
1028 | mappings themselves. |
|
|
1029 | |
|
|
1030 | Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example |
|
|
1031 | if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s |
|
|
1032 | C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into the |
|
|
1033 | user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement: |
|
|
1034 | |
|
|
1035 | URxvt.keysym.Insert: <my insert key sequence> |
|
|
1036 | URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin: |
|
|
1037 | |
|
|
1038 | The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination |
|
|
1039 | of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for |
|
|
1040 | C<Shift-Insert>. |
|
|
1041 | |
|
|
1042 | The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to |
|
|
1043 | the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited |
|
|
1044 | font-switching at runtime: |
|
|
1045 | |
|
|
1046 | URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007 |
|
|
1047 | URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007 |
|
|
1048 | |
|
|
1049 | Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more |
|
|
1050 | info): |
