		475
		476	Right now, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will first unmap/map the specified window, so it
		477	shouldn't be a top-level window. @@RXVT_NAME@@ will also reconfigure it
		478	quite a bit, so don't expect it to keep some specific state. It's best to
		479	create an extra subwindow for @@RXVT_NAME@@ and leave it alone.
		480
		481	The window will not be destroyed when @@RXVT_NAME@@ exits.
		482
		483	It might be useful to know that @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not close file
		484	descriptors passed to it (except for stdin/out/err, of course), so you
		485	can use file descriptors to communicate with the programs within the
		486	terminal. This works regardless of whether the C<-embed> option was used or
		487	not.
		488
		489	Here is a short Gtk2-perl snippet that illustrates how this option can be
		490	used (a longer example is in F<doc/embed>):
		491
		492	my $rxvt = new Gtk2::Socket;
		493	$rxvt->signal_connect_after (realize => sub {
		494	my $xid = $_[0]->window->get_xid;

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

		515	use IO::Pty;
		516	use Fcntl;
		517

		1104	B<2>, B<3>, B<4>, B<5>.
		1105
		1106	The B<NumLock>, B<Meta> and B<ISOLevel3> modifiers are usually aliased to
		1107	whatever modifier the NumLock key, Meta/Alt keys or ISO Level3 Shift/AltGr
		1108	keys are being mapped. B<AppKeypad> is a synthetic modifier mapped to the
		1109	current application keymap mode state.
		1110
		1111	The spellings of I<key> can be obtained by using B<xev>(1) command or
		1112	searching keysym macros from B</usr/X11R6/include/X11/keysymdef.h> and
		1113	omitting the prefix B<XK_>. Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex
		1114	keysym value (B<0x0000 - 0xFFFF>). Note that the lookup of I<sym>s is not
		1115	performed in an exact manner; however, the closest match is assured.
		1116
		1117	I<string> may contain escape values (C<\n>: newline, C<\000>: octal
		1118	number), see RESOURCES in C<man 7 X> for futher details.
		1119
		1120	You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a I<string>
		1121	with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where the delimiter `/'
		1122	should be a character not used by the strings.
		1123
		1124	Its usage can be demonstrated by an example:
		1125
		1126	URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list\|\033<M-C-\|abc\|>
		1127
		1128	The above line is equivalent to the following three lines:
		1129
		1130	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \033<M-C-a>
		1131	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x62: \033<M-C-b>
		1132	URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x63: \033<M-C-c>
		1133
		1134	If I<string> takes the form of C<command:STRING>, the specified B<STRING>
		1135	is interpreted and executed as @@RXVT_NAME@@'s control sequence. For
		1136	example the following means "change the current locale to C<zh_CN.GBK>
		1137	when Control-Meta-c is being pressed":
		1138
		1139	URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007
		1140
		1141	If I<string> takes the form C<perl:STRING>, then the specified B<STRING>
		1142	is passed to the C<on_keyboard_command> perl handler. See the @@RXVT_NAME@@perl(3)
		1143	manpage. For example, the F<selection> extension (activated via
		1144	C<@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe selection>) listens for C<selection:rot13> events:
		1145
		1146	URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: perl:selection:rot13
		1147
		1148	Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping
		1149	will match if at I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and
		1150	no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
		1151	means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide
		1152	definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined
		1153	mappings themselves.
		1154
		1155	Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example
		1156	if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s
		1157	C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into the
		1158	user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement:
		1159
		1160	URxvt.keysym.Insert: <my insert key sequence>
		1161	URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin:
		1162
		1163	The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination
		1164	of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
		1165	C<Shift-Insert>.
		1166
		1167	The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to
		1168	the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
		1169	font-switching at runtime:
		1170
		1171	URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007
		1172	URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007
		1173
		1174	Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more
		1175	info):
		1176
		1177	URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t

		1186
		1187	Extension names can be prefixed with a C<-> sign to prohibit using
		1188	them. This can be useful to selectively disable some extensions loaded
		1189	by default, or specified via the C<perl-ext-common> resource. For
		1190	example, C<default,-selection> will use all the default extension except
		1191	C<selection>.
		1192
		1193	Extension names can also be followed by an argument in angle brackets
		1194	(e.g. C<< searchable-scrollback<M-s> >>, which binds the hotkey for
		1195	searchable scrollback to Alt/Meta-s). Mentioning the same extension
