407
408Tells @@RXVT_NAME@@ to embed it's windows into an already-existing window,
409which enables applications to easily embed a terminal.
410
411Right now, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will first unmap/map the specified window, so it
412shouldn't be a top-level window. @@RXVT_NAME@@ will also reconfigure it
413quite a bit, so don't expect it to keep some specific state. It's best to
414create an extra subwindow for @@RXVT_NAME@@ and leave it alone.
415
416The window will not be destroyed when @@RXVT_NAME@@ exits.
417
418It might be useful to know that @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not close file
419descriptors passed to it (except for stdin/out/err, of course), so you
420can use file descriptors to communicate with the programs within the
421terminal. This works regardless of wether the C<-embed> option was used or
422not.
423
424Here is a short Gtk2-perl snippet that illustrates how this option can be
425used (a longer example is in F<doc/embed>):
426
427 my $rxvt = new Gtk2::Socket;
428 $rxvt->signal_connect_after (realize => sub {
429 my $xid = $_[0]->window->get_xid;
430 system "@@RXVT_NAME@@ -embed $xid &";

434
435Tells @@RXVT_NAME@@ NOT to execute any commands or create a new pty/tty
436pair but instead use the given filehandle as the tty master. This is
437useful if you want to drive @@RXVT_NAME@@ as a generic terminal emulator
438without having to run a program within it.
439
440If this switch is given, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not create any utmp/wtmp
441entries and will not tinker with pty/tty permissions - you have to do that
442yourself if you want that.
443
444Here is a example in perl that illustrates how this option can be used (a
445longer example is in F<doc/pty-fd>):
446
447 use IO::Pty;
448 use Fcntl;
449
450 my $pty = new IO::Pty;
451 fcntl $pty, F_SETFD, 0; # clear close-on-exec
452 system "@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pty-fd " . (fileno $pty) . "&";
453 close $pty;
454

1029If I<string> takes the form C<perl:STRING>, then the specified B<STRING>
1030is passed to the C<on_keyboard_command> perl handler. See the @@RXVT_NAME@@perl(3)
1031manpage. For example, the F<selection> extension (activated via
1032C<@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe selection>) listens for C<selection:rot13> events:
1033
1034 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: perl:selection:rot13
1035
1036Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping
1037will match if at I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and
1038no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
1039means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide
1040definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined
1041mappings themselves.
1042
1043Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example
1044if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s
1045C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into the
1046user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement:
1047
1048 URxvt.keysym.Insert: <my insert key sequence>
1049 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin:
1050
1051The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination
1052of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
1053C<Shift-Insert>.
