		886
		887	The spellings of I<key> can be obtained by using B<xev>(1) command or
		888	searching keysym macros from B</usr/X11R6/include/X11/keysymdef.h> and
		889	omitting the prefix B<XK_>. Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex
		890	keysym value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>). Note that the lookup of I<sym>s is not
		891	performed in an exact manner; however, the closest match is assured.
		892
		893	I<string> may contain escape values (C<\a>: bell, C<\b>: backspace,

824	KEYSYM_RESOURCE.	899	Please note that you need to double the C<\> when using
		900	C<--enable-xgetdefault>, as X itself does it's own de-escaping (you can
		901	use C<\033> instead of C<\e> (and so on), which will work with both Xt and
		902	@@RXVT_NAME@@'s own processing).
		903
		904	You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a I<string>
		905	with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where the delimeter `/'
		906	should be a character not used by the strings.
		907
		908	Its usage can be demonstrated by an example:
		909
		910	URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list\|\033<M-C-\|abc\|>
		911
		912	The above line is equivalent to the following three lines:
		913
		914	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \033<M-C-a>
		915	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x62: \033<M-C-b>
		916	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x63: \033<M-C-c>
		917
		918	If I<string> takes the form of C<command:STRING>, the specified B<STRING>
		919	is interpreted and executed as @@RXVT_NAME@@'s control sequence. For
		920	example the following means "change the current locale to C<zh_CN.GBK>
		921	when Control-Meta-c is being pressed":
		922
		923	URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007
		924
		925	The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to
		926	the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
		927	font-switching at runtime:
		928
		929	URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007
		930	URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007
		931
		932	Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more
