		418	Right now, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will first unmap/map the specified window, so it
		419	shouldn't be a top-level window. @@RXVT_NAME@@ will also reconfigure it
		420	quite a bit, so don't expect it to keep some specific state. It's best to
		421	create an extra subwindow for @@RXVT_NAME@@ and leave it alone.
		422
		423	The window will not be destroyed when @@RXVT_NAME@@ exits.
		424
		425	It might be useful to know that @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not close file
		426	descriptors passed to it (except for stdin/out/err, of course), so you
		427	can use file descriptors to communicate with the programs within the
		428	terminal. This works regardless of wether the C<-embed> option was used or
		429	not.
		430
		431	Here is a short Gtk2-perl snippet that illustrates how this option can be
		432	used (a longer example is in F<doc/embed>):
		433
		434	my $rxvt = new Gtk2::Socket;
		435	$rxvt->signal_connect_after (realize => sub {
		436	my $xid = $_[0]->window->get_xid;

		441
		442	Tells @@RXVT_NAME@@ NOT to execute any commands or create a new pty/tty
		443	pair but instead use the given filehandle as the tty master. This is
		444	useful if you want to drive @@RXVT_NAME@@ as a generic terminal emulator
		445	without having to run a program within it.
		446
		447	If this switch is given, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not create any utmp/wtmp
		448	entries and will not tinker with pty/tty permissions - you have to do that
		449	yourself if you want that.
		450
		451	As an extremely special case, specifying C<-1> will completely suppress
		452	pty/tty operations.
		453
		454	Here is a example in perl that illustrates how this option can be used (a

		459

		993	B<2>, B<3>, B<4>, B<5>.
		994
		995	The B<NumLock>, B<Meta> and B<ISOLevel3> modifiers are usually aliased to
		996	whatever modifier the NumLock key, Meta/Alt keys or ISO Level3 Shift/AltGr
		997	keys are being mapped. B<AppKeypad> is a synthetic modifier mapped to the
		998	current application keymap mode state.
		999
		1000	The spellings of I<key> can be obtained by using B<xev>(1) command or
		1001	searching keysym macros from B</usr/X11R6/include/X11/keysymdef.h> and
		1002	omitting the prefix B<XK_>. Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex
		1003	keysym value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>). Note that the lookup of I<sym>s is not
		1004	performed in an exact manner; however, the closest match is assured.
		1005
		1006	I<string> may contain escape values (C<\a>: bell, C<\b>: backspace,
		1007	C<\e>, C<\E>: escape, C<\n>: newline, C<\r>: carriage return, C<\t>: tab,
735	tab, \000: octal number) or control characters (^?: delete, ^@: null,	1008	C<\000>: octal number) or verbatim control characters (C<^?>: delete,

738	omitted. This resource is only available when compiled with	1011
739	KEYSYM_RESOURCE.	1012	Please note that you need to double the C<\> in resource files, as
		1013	Xlib itself does it's own de-escaping (you can use C<\033> instead of
		1014	C<\e> (and so on), which will work with both Xt and @@RXVT_NAME@@'s own
		1015	processing).
		1016
		1017	You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a I<string>
		1018	with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where the delimeter `/'
		1019	should be a character not used by the strings.
		1020
		1021	Its usage can be demonstrated by an example:
		1022
		1023	URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<M-C-|abc|>
		1024
		1025	The above line is equivalent to the following three lines:
		1026
		1027	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \033<M-C-a>
		1028	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x62: \033<M-C-b>
		1029	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x63: \033<M-C-c>
		1030
		1031	If I<string> takes the form of C<command:STRING>, the specified B<STRING>
		1032	is interpreted and executed as @@RXVT_NAME@@'s control sequence. For
		1033	example the following means "change the current locale to C<zh_CN.GBK>
		1034	when Control-Meta-c is being pressed":
		1035
		1036	URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007
		1037
		1038	If I<string> takes the form C<perl:STRING>, then the specified B<STRING>
		1039	is passed to the C<on_keyboard_command> perl handler. See the @@RXVT_NAME@@perl(3)
		1040	manpage. For example, the F<selection> extension (activated via
		1041	C<@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe selection>) listens for C<selection:rot13> events:
		1042
		1043	URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: perl:selection:rot13
		1044
		1045	Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping
		1046	will match if at I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and
		1047	no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
		1048	means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide
		1049	definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined
		1050	mappings themselves.
		1051
		1052	Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example
		1053	if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s
		1054	C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into the
		1055	user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement:
		1056
		1057	URxvt.keysym.Insert: <my insert key sequence>
		1058	URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin:
		1059
		1060	The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination
		1061	of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
		1062	C<Shift-Insert>.
		1063
		1064	The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to
		1065	the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
		1066	font-switching at runtime:
		1067
		1068	URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007
		1069	URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007
		1070
		1071	Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more
		1072	info):
		1073
		1074	URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t
		1075	URxvt.keysym.M-C-4: command:\033[8;48;110t

		1081	Comma-separated list(s) of perl extension scripts (default: C<default>) to

		1083
		1084	Extension names can be prefixed with a C<-> sign to prohibit using
		1085	them. This can be useful to selectively disable some extensions loaded
		1086	by default, or specified via the C<perl-ext-common> resource. For
		1087	example, C<default,-selection> will use all the default extension except
		1088	C<selection>.
		1089
		1090	Extension names can also be followed by an argument in angle brackets
		1091	(e.g. C<< searchable-scrollback<M-s> >>, which binds the hotkey for

983		1393
984	This is because there is a difference between script and language --	1394	Default F<<< $HOME/.rxvt-unicode-I<< <nodename >> >>>.
985	rxvt-unicode does not know which language the text that is output
986	is, as it only knows the unicode character codes. If rxvt-unicode
987	first sees a japanese character, it might choose a japanese font for
988	it. Subseqzuent japanese characters will take that font. Now, many chinese
989	characters aren't represented in japanese fonts, so when the first
990	non-japanese character comes up, rxvt-unicode will look for a chinese font
991	-- unfortunately at this point, it will still use the japanese font for
992	japanese characters that are also chinese.
993		1395
994	The workaround is easy: just tag a chinese font at the end of your font	1396	=item B<HOME>

996	a preference list: If you expect more japanese, list a japanese font

1008	Unlike some other terminals, rxvt-unicode has no encoding switch, and no	1406	=item B<XENVIRONMENT>

1010	UTF-8 or any other encodings with respect to terminal I/O.
1011		1407
1012	The reasons is that there exists a perfectly fine mechanism for selecting	1408	If set and accessible, gives the name of a X resource file to be loaded by
1013	the encoding, doing I/O and (most important) communicating this to all
1014	applications so everybody agrees on character properties such as width and
1015	code number. This mechanism is the I<locale>.
1016
1017	Rxvt-unicode uses the C<LC_CTYPE> locale category to select encoding. All
1018	programs doing the same (that is, most) will automatically agree in the
1019	interpretation of characters.
1020
1021	Unfortunately, there is no system-independent way to select locales, nor
1022	is there a standard on how locale specifiers will look like.
1023
1024	On most systems, the content of the C<LC_CTYPE> environment variable
1025	contains an arbitrary string which corresponds to an already-installed
1026	locale. Common names for locales are C<en_US.UTF-8>, C<de_DE.ISO-8859-15>,
1027	C<ja_JP.EUC-JP>, i.e. C<language_country.encoding>, but other forms
1028	(i.e. C<de> or C<german>) are also common.
1029
1030	Rxvt-unicode ignores all other locale categories, and except for
1031	the encoding, ignores country or language-specific settings,
1032	i.e. C<de_DE.UTF-8> and C<ja_JP.UTF-8> are the same for rxvt-unicode.
1033
1034	If you want to use a specific encoding you have to make sure you start
1035	rxvt-unicode with the correct C<LC_CTYPE> category.
1036
1037	=item Can I switch locales at runtime?
1038
1039	Yes, using an escape sequence. Try sth. like this, which sets
1040	rxvt-unicode's idea of C<LC_CTYPE>.

1042	printf '\e]701;%s\007' ja_JP.SJIS
1043
1044	See also the previous question.
1045
1046	Sometimes this capability is rather handy when you want to work in one
1047	locale (e.g. C<de_DE.UTF-8>) but some programs don't support UTF-8. For
1048	example, I use this script to start C<xjdic>, which first switches to a
1049	locale supported by xjdic and back later:
1050
1051	printf '\e]701;%s\007' ja_JP.SJIS
1052	xjdic -js
1053	printf '\e]701;%s\007' de_DE.UTF-8
1054
1055	=item Can I switch the fonts at runtime?
1056
1057	Yes, using an escape sequence. Try sth. like this, which has the same
1058	effect as using the C<-fn> switch, and takes effect immediately:
1059
1060	printf '\e]50;%s\007' "9x15bold,xft:Kochi Gothic"
1061
1062	This is useful if you e.g. work primarily with japanese (and prefer a
1063	japanese font), but you have to switch to chinese temporarily, where
1064	japanese fonts would only be in your way.
1065

1118
1119	=item What's with the strange Backspace/Delete key behaviour?
1120
1121	Assuming that the physical Backspace key corresponds to the
1122	BackSpace keysym (not likely for Linux ... see the following
1123	question) there are two standard values that can be used for
1124	Backspace: C<^H> and C<^?>.
1125
1126	Historically, either value is correct, but rxvt-unicode adopts the debian
1127	policy of using C<^?> when unsure, because it's the one only only correct
1128	choice :).
1129
1130	Rxvt-unicode tries to inherit the current stty settings and uses the value
1131	of `erase' to guess the value for backspace. If rxvt-unicode wasn't
1132	started from a terminal (say, from a menu or by remote shell), then the
1133	system value of `erase', which corresponds to CERASE in <termios.h>, will
1134	be used (which may not be the same as your stty setting).
1135
1136	For starting a new rxvt-unicode:
1137
1138	# use Backspace = ^H
1139	$ stty erase ^H
1140	$ @@RXVT_NAME@@	1409	@@RXVT_NAME@@.
1141
1142	# use Backspace = ^?
1143	$ stty erase ^?
1144	$ @@RXVT_NAME@@
1145
1146	Toggle with "ESC[36h" / "ESC[36l" as documented in @@RXVT_NAME@@(7).
1147
1148	For an existing rxvt-unicode:
1149
1150	# use Backspace = ^H
1151	$ stty erase ^H
1152	$ echo -n "^[[36h"
1153
1154	# use Backspace = ^?
1155	$ stty erase ^?
1156	$ echo -n "^[[36l"
1157
1158	This helps satisfy some of the Backspace discrepancies that occur, but
1159	if you use Backspace = C<^H>, make sure that the termcap/terminfo value
1160	properly reflects that.
1161
1162	The Delete key is a another casualty of the ill-defined Backspace problem.
1163	To avoid confusion between the Backspace and Delete keys, the Delete
1164	key has been assigned an escape sequence to match the vt100 for Execute
1165	(ESC[3~) and is in the supplied termcap/terminfo.
1166
1167	Some other Backspace problems:
1168
1169	some editors use termcap/terminfo,
1170	some editors (vim I'm told) expect Backspace = ^H,
1171	GNU Emacs (and Emacs-like editors) use ^H for help.
1172
1173	Perhaps someday this will all be resolved in a consistent manner.
1174
1175	=item I don't like the key-bindings. How do I change them?
1176
1177	There are some compile-time selections available via configure. Unless
