		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

		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

		1003	keysym value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>). Note that the lookup of I<sym>s is not

		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
