		471	Tells @@RXVT_NAME@@ to embed its windows into an already-existing window,
		472	which enables applications to easily embed a terminal.
		473
		474	Right now, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will first unmap/map the specified window, so it
		475	shouldn't be a top-level window. @@RXVT_NAME@@ will also reconfigure it
		476	quite a bit, so don't expect it to keep some specific state. It's best to
		477	create an extra subwindow for @@RXVT_NAME@@ and leave it alone.
		478
		479	The window will not be destroyed when @@RXVT_NAME@@ exits.
		480
		481	It might be useful to know that @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not close file
		482	descriptors passed to it (except for stdin/out/err, of course), so you
		483	can use file descriptors to communicate with the programs within the
		484	terminal. This works regardless of whether the C<-embed> option was used or
		485	not.
		486
		487	Here is a short Gtk2-perl snippet that illustrates how this option can be
		488	used (a longer example is in F<doc/embed>):
		489
		490	my $rxvt = new Gtk2::Socket;
		491	$rxvt->signal_connect_after (realize => sub {
		492	my $xid = $_[0]->window->get_xid;

		497
		498	Tells @@RXVT_NAME@@ NOT to execute any commands or create a new pty/tty
		499	pair but instead use the given file descriptor as the tty master. This is
		500	useful if you want to drive @@RXVT_NAME@@ as a generic terminal emulator
		501	without having to run a program within it.
		502
		503	If this switch is given, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not create any utmp/wtmp
		504	entries and will not tinker with pty/tty permissions - you have to do that
		505	yourself if you want that.
		506
		507	As an extremely special case, specifying C<-1> will completely suppress
		508	pty/tty operations.
		509
		510	Here is a example in perl that illustrates how this option can be used (a
		511	longer example is in F<doc/pty-fd>):

		513	use IO::Pty;
		514	use Fcntl;
		515

		1147	Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping

		1152	mappings themselves.
		1153
		1154	Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example
		1155	if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s
		1156	C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into the
		1157	user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement:
		1158
		1159	URxvt.keysym.Insert: <my insert key sequence>
		1160	URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin:
		1161
		1162	The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination
		1163	of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
		1164	C<Shift-Insert>.
		1165
		1166	The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to
		1167	the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
		1168	font-switching at runtime:
