1092Extension names can be prefixed with a C<-> sign to prohibit using
1093them. This can be useful to selectively disable some extensions loaded
1094by default, or specified via the C<perl-ext-common> resource. For
1095example, C<default,-selection> will use all the default extension except
1096C<selection>.
1097
1098Extension names can also be followed by an argument in angle brackets
1099(e.g. C<< searchable-scrollback<M-s> >>, which binds the hotkey for
1100searchable scorllback to Alt/Meta-s). Mentioning the same extension
