|

558 | |

559 | The second font is just used to add additional unicode characters not in |

561 | the bold version of the font does contain less characters, so this is a |
|
|
562 | useful supplement. |
|
|
563 | |
|
|
564 | The third font is an Xft font with aliasing turned off, and the characters |
|
|
565 | are limited to the B<JIS 0208> codeset (i.e. japanese kanji). The font |
|

|
|
831 | |
|
|
832 | The B<NumLock>, B<Meta> and B<ISOLevel3> modifiers are usually aliased to |
|
|
833 | whatever modifier the NumLock key, Meta/Alt keys or ISO Level3 Shift/AltGr |
|
|
834 | keys are being mapped. B<AppKeypad> is a artificial modifier mapped to the |
|
|
835 | current application keymap mode state. |
|
|
836 | |
|
|
837 | The spellings of I<key> can be obtained by using B<xev>(1) command or |
|
|
838 | searching keysym macros from B</usr/X11R6/include/X11/keysymdef.h> and |
|
|
839 | omitting the prefix B<XK_>. Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex |
|
|
840 | keysym value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>). Note that the lookup of I<sym>s is not |
|
|
841 | performed in an exact manner; however, the closest match is assured. |
|
|
842 | |
|
|
843 | I<string> may contain escape values (C<\a>: bell, C<\b>: backspace, |
|
|
844 | C<\e>, C<\E>: escape, C<\n>: newline, C<\r>: carriage return, C<\t>: tab, |
738 | tab, \000: octal number) or control characters (^?: delete, ^@: null, |

847 | can start or end with whitespace. |
741 | omitted. This resource is only available when compiled with |
848 | |
742 | KEYSYM_RESOURCE. |
849 | You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a I<string> |
|
|
850 | with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where the delimeter `/' |
|
|
851 | should be a character not used by the strings. |
|
|
852 | |
|
|
853 | Its usage can be demonstrated by an example: |
|
|
854 | |
|
|
855 | URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\e<M-C-|abc|> |
|
|
856 | |
|
|
857 | The above line is equivalent to the following three lines: |
|
|
858 | |
|
|
859 | URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \e<M-C-a> |
|

|
|
861 | URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x63: \e<M-C-c> |
|
|
862 | |
|
|
863 | If I<string> takes the form of C<proto:STRING>, the specified B<STRING> is |
|
|
864 | interpreted and executed as @@RXVT_NAME@@'s control sequence. For example, |
|

935 | ISO 14755 is a standard for entering and viewing unicode characters |
|
|
936 | and character codes using the keyboard. It consists of 4 parts. The |

|
937 | first part is available rxvt-unicode has been compiled with |

946 | |
|
|
947 | Start by pressing and holding both C<Control> and C<Shift>, then enter |
|
|
948 | hex-digits (between one and six). Releasing C<Control> and C<Shift> will |
|
|
949 | commit the character as if it were typed directly. While holding down |
|
|
950 | C<Control> and C<Shift> you can also enter multiple characters by pressing |
|
|
951 | C<Space>, which will commit the current character and lets you start a new |
|
|
952 | one. |
|
|
953 | |
|
|
954 | As an example of use, imagine a business card with a japanese e-mail |
|
|
955 | address, which you cannot type. Fortunately, the card has the e-mail |
|
|
956 | address printed as hexcodes, e.g. C<671d 65e5>. You can enter this easily |
|
|
957 | by pressing C<Control> and C<Shift>, followed by C<6-7-1-D-SPACE-6-5-E-5>, |
|
|
958 | followed by releasing the modifier keys. |

960 | =item 5.2: Keyboard symbols entry method |
|
|
961 | |
|
|
962 | This mode lets you input characters representing the keycap symbols of |
|
|
963 | your keyboard, if representable in the current locale encoding. |
|
|
964 | |
|
|
965 | Start by pressing C<Control> and C<Shift> together, then releasing |
|
|
966 | them. The next special key (cursor keys, home etc.) you enter will not |
|
|
967 | invoke it's usual function but instead will insert the corresponding |
|
|
968 | keycap symbol. The symbol will only be entered when the key has been |
|
|
969 | released, otherwise pressing e.g. C<Shift> would enter the symbol for |
|
|
970 | C<ISO Level 2 Switch>, although your intention might have been to enter a |
|
|
971 | reverse tab (Shift-Tab). |

|
978 | =item 5.4: Feedback method for identifying displayed characters for later input |
|
|
979 | |
|
|
980 | This method lets you display the unicode character code associated with |
|
|
981 | characters already displayed. |
|
|
982 | |
|
|
983 | You enter this mode by holding down C<Control> and C<Shift> together, then |
|
|
984 | pressing and holding the left mouse button and moving around. The unicode |
|
|
985 | hex code(s) (it might be a combining character) of the character under the |
|
|
986 | pointer is displayed until you release C<Control> and C<Shift>. |
|
|
987 | |
|
|
988 | In addition to the hex codes it will display the font used to draw this |
|
|
989 | character - due to implementation reasons, characters combined with |

885 | |
|
|
886 | Most fonts do not contain the full range of Unicode, which is |

892 | font. Often the result is fine, but sometimes the chosen font looks |
|
|
893 | bad. In that case, select a font of your taste and add it to the font |

898 | When rxvt-unicode sees a character, it will first look at the base |
|
|
899 | font. If the base font does not contain the character, it will go to the |
|
|
900 | next font, and so on. |
|
|
901 | |
|
|
902 | The only limitation is that all the fonts must not be larger than the base |
|
|
903 | font, as the base font defines the principial cell size, which must be the |
|
|
904 | same due to the way terminals work. |

906 | =item Why do some chinese characters look so different than others? |
|
|
907 | |
|
|
908 | This is because there is a difference between script and language -- |
|
|
909 | rxvt-unicode does not know which language the text that is output |
|
|
910 | is, as it only knows the unicode character codes. If rxvt-unicode |
|
|
911 | first sees a japanese character, it might choose a japanese font for |
|
|
912 | it. Subseqzuent japanese characters will take that font. Now, many chinese |
|
|
913 | characters aren't represented in japanese fonts, so when the first |
|
|
914 | non-japanese character comes up, rxvt-unicode will look for a chinese font |
|
|
915 | -- unfortunately at this point, it will still use the japanese font for |
|
|
916 | japanese characters that are also chinese. |
|
|
917 | |
|
|
918 | The workaround is easy: just tag a chinese font at the end of your font |
|
|
919 | list (see the previous question). The key is to view the font list as |
|
|
920 | a preference list: If you expect more japanese, list a japanese font |
|
|
921 | first. If you expect more chinese, put a chinese font first. |
|
|
922 | |
|
|
923 | In the future it might be possible to switch preferences at runtime (the |
|
|
924 | internal data structure has no problem with using different fonts for |
|
|
925 | the same character at the same time, but no interface for this has been |
|
|
926 | designed yet). |

929 | |

|
930 | Make sure that mouse reporting is actually turned off since killing |
|

931 | some editors prematurely may leave the mouse in mouse report mode. I've |
|
|
932 | heard that tcsh may use mouse reporting unless it otherwise specified. A |

936 | =item What's with this bold/blink stuff? |
|
|
937 | |
|
|
938 | If no bold colour is set via C<colorBD:>, bold will invert text using the |
|
|
939 | standard foreground colour. |
|
|
940 | |
|
|
941 | For the standard background colour, blinking will actually make the |
|
|
942 | text blink when compiled with C<--enable-blinking>. with standard |
|
|
943 | colours. Without C<--enable-blinking>, the blink attribute will be |
|
|
944 | ignored. |
|
|
945 | |
|
|
946 | On ANSI colours, bold/blink attributes are used to set high-intensity |
|
|
947 | foreground/background colors. |
|
|
948 | |
|
|
949 | color0-7 are the low-intensity colors. |
|
|
950 | |
|
|
951 | color8-15 are the corresponding high-intensity colors. |

979 | =item What's with the strange Backspace/Delete key behaviour? |
|
|
980 | |
|
|
981 | Assuming that the physical Backspace key corresponds to the |
|
|
982 | BackSpace keysym (not likely for Linux ... see the following |
|
|
983 | question) there are two standard values that can be used for |
|
|
984 | Backspace: C<^H> and C<^?>. |
|
|
985 | |
|
|
986 | Historically, either value is correct, but rxvt-unicode adopts the debian |
|
|
987 | policy of using C<^?> when unsure, because it's the one only only correct |
|
|
988 | choice :). |
|
|
989 | |
|
|
990 | Rxvt-unicode tries to inherit the current stty settings and uses the value |
|
|
991 | of `erase' to guess the value for backspace. If rxvt-unicode wasn't |
|
|
992 | started from a terminal (say, from a menu or by remote shell), then the |
|
|
993 | system value of `erase', which corresponds to CERASE in <termios.h>, will |
|
|
994 | be used (which may not be the same as your stty setting). |
|
|
995 | |
|
|
996 | For starting a new rxvt-unicode: |
|
|
997 | |
|
|
998 | # use Backspace = ^H |
|
|
999 | $ stty erase ^H |
|
|
1000 | $ @@RXVT_NAME@@ |
|
|
1001 | |
|
|
1002 | # use Backspace = ^? |
|
|
1003 | $ stty erase ^? |
|
|
1004 | $ @@RXVT_NAME@@ |
|
|
1005 | |
|
|
1006 | Toggle with "ESC[36h" / "ESC[36l" as documented in @@RXVT_NAME@@(7). |
|
|
1007 | |
|
|
1008 | For an existing rxvt-unicode: |
|
|
1009 | |
|
|
1010 | # use Backspace = ^H |
|
|
1011 | $ stty erase ^H |
|
|
1012 | $ echo -n "^[[36h" |
|
|
1013 | |
|
|
1014 | # use Backspace = ^? |
|
|
1015 | $ stty erase ^? |
|
|
1016 | $ echo -n "^[[36l" |
|
|
1017 | |
|
|
1018 | This helps satisfy some of the Backspace discrepancies that occur, but |
|
|
1019 | if you use Backspace = C<^H>, make sure that the termcap/terminfo value |
|
|
1020 | properly reflects that. |
|
|
1021 | |
|
|
1022 | The Delete key is a another casualty of the ill-defined Backspace problem. |
|
|
1023 | To avoid confusion between the Backspace and Delete keys, the Delete |
|
|
1024 | key has been assigned an escape sequence to match the vt100 for Execute |
|
|
1025 | (ESC[3~) and is in the supplied termcap/terminfo. |
|
|
1026 | |
|
|
1027 | Some other Backspace problems: |
|
|
1028 | |
|
|
1029 | some editors use termcap/terminfo, |
|
|
1030 | some editors (vim I'm told) expect Backspace = ^H, |
|
|
1031 | GNU Emacs (and Emacs-like editors) use ^H for help. |
|
|
1032 | |
|
|
1033 | Perhaps someday this will all be resolved in a consistent manner. |
|
|
1034 | |

|
1035 | =item I don't like the key-bindings. How do I change them? |
|
|
1036 | |
|
|
1037 | There are some compile-time selections available via configure. Unless |
|
|
1038 | you have run "configure" with the C<--disable-resources> option you can |
|
|
1039 | use the `keysym' resource to alter the keystrings associated with keysym |

|
|
1084 | How do I make use of them? For example, the Sun Keyboard type 4 |

|
|
1088 | F22 == Print |

|
|
1091 | F33 == End |
|
|
1092 | F35 == Next |
|
|
1093 | |
|
|
1094 | Rather than have rxvt-unicode try to accomodate all the various possible keyboard |
|
|
1095 | mappings, it is better to use `xmodmap' to remap the keys as required for |

|
|
1099 | I need this to decide about setting colors etc. |
|
|
1100 | |
|
|
1101 | rxvt and rxvt-unicode always export the variable "COLORTERM", so you can |
|
|
1102 | check and see if that is set. Note that several programs, JED, slrn, |
|
|
1103 | Midnight Commander automatically check this variable to decide whether or |

1108 | If you've compiled rxvt-unicode with DISPLAY_IS_IP and ahve enabled |
|
|
1109 | insecure mode then it is possible to use the following shell script |
|
|
1110 | snippets to correctly set the display. If your version of rxvt-unicode |
|
|
1111 | wasn't also compiled with ESCZ_ANSWER (as assumed in these snippets) then |
|
|
1112 | the COLORTERM variable can be used to distinguish rxvt-unicode from a |
