		387	which enables applications to easily embed a terminal.
		388
		389	Right now, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will first unmap/map the specified window, so it
		390	shouldn't be a top-level window. @@RXVT_NAME@@ will also reconfigure it
		391	quite a bit, so don't expect it to keep some specific state. It's best to
		392	create an extra subwindow for @@RXVT_NAME@@ and leave it alone.
		393
		394	The window will not be destroyed when @@RXVT_NAME@@ exits.
		395
		396	It might be useful to know that @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not close file
		397	descriptors passed to it (except for stdin/out/err, of course), so you
		398	can use file descriptors to communicate with the programs within the
		399	terminal. This works regardless of wether the C<-embed> option was used or
		400	not.
		401
		402	Here is a short Gtk2-perl snippet that illustrates how this option can be
		403	used (a longer example is in F<doc/embed>):
		404
		405	my $rxvt = new Gtk2::Socket;
		406	$rxvt->signal_connect_after (realize => sub {
		407	my $xid = $_[0]->window->get_xid;
		408	system "@@RXVT_NAME@@ -embed $xid &";
		409	});
		410
		411	=item B<-pty-fd> I<fileno>
		412
		413	Tells @@RXVT_NAME@@ NOT to execute any commands or create a new pty/tty
		414	pair but instead use the given filehandle as the tty master. This is
		415	useful if you want to drive @@RXVT_NAME@@ as a generic terminal emulator
		416	without having to run a program within it.
		417
		418	If this switch is given, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not create any utmp/wtmp
		419	entries and will not tinker with pty/tty permissions - you have to do that
		420	yourself if you want that.
		421
		422	Here is a example in perl that illustrates how this option can be used (a
		423	longer example is in F<doc/pty-fd>):
		424
		425	use IO::Pty;
		426	use Fcntl;
		427
		428	my $pty = new IO::Pty;
		429	fcntl $pty, F_SETFD, 0; # clear close-on-exec
		430	system "@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pty-fd " . (fileno $pty) . "&";
		431	close $pty;

		985	Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping
		986	will match if at I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and
		987	no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
		988	means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide
		989	definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined
		990	mappings themselves.
		991
		992	Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example
		993	if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s
		994	C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into the
		995	user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement:
		996
		997	URxvt.keysym.Insert: <my insert key sequence>
		998	URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin:
		999
		1000	The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination
		1001	of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
		1002	C<Shift-Insert>.
		1003
		1004	The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to
		1005	the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
		1006	font-switching at runtime:
		1007
