1088The spellings of I<key> can be obtained by using B<xev>(1) command or 1085Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a key mapping will
1089searching keysym macros from B</usr/X11R6/include/X11/keysymdef.h> and 1086match if I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and no other
1087key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That means that
1088defining a mapping for C<a> will automatically provide definitions for
1089C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined mappings
1090themselves. See the C<builtin:> action, below, for a way to work around
1091this when this is a problem.
1092
1093The spelling of I<key> depends on your implementation of X. An easy way to
1094find a key name is to use the B<xev>(1) command. You can find a list by
1095looking for the C<XK_> macros in the B<X11/keysymdef.h> include file (omit
1090omitting the prefix B<XK_>. Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex 1096the C<XK_> prefix). Alternatively you can specify I<key> by its hex keysym

1097You can define a range of keysyms in one shot by providing a I<string> 1103An action starts with an action prefix that selects a certain type
1098with pattern B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where the delimiter `/' 1104of action, followed by a colon. An action string without colons is
1099should be a character not used by the strings. 1105interpreted as a literal string to pass to the tty (as if it was
1106prefixed with C<string:>).
1100 1107
1101Its usage can be demonstrated by an example: 1108The following action prefixes are known - extensions can provide
1109additional prefixes:
1102 1110
1103 URxvt.keysym.M-C-0x61: list|\033<M-C-|abc|> 1111=over 4
1104 1112
1105The above line is equivalent to the following three lines: 1113=item string:STRING
1106 1114
1107 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x61: \033<M-C-a> 1115If the I<action> starts with C<string:> (or otherwise contains no colons),
1108 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x62: \033<M-C-b> 1116then the remaining C<STRING> will be passed to the program running in the
1109 URxvt.keysym.Meta-Control-0x63: \033<M-C-c> 1117terminal. For example, you could replace whatever Shift-Tab outputs by the
1118string C<echo rm -rf /> followed by a newline:
1110 1119
1120 URxvt.keysym.Shift-Tab: string:echo rm -rf /\n
1121
1122This could in theory be used to completely redefine your keymap.
1123
1124=item command:STRING
1125
1111If I<string> takes the form of C<command:STRING>, the specified B<STRING> 1126If I<action> takes the form of C<command:STRING>, the specified B<STRING>
1112is interpreted and executed as @@RXVT_NAME@@'s control sequence. For 1127is interpreted and executed as @@RXVT_NAME@@'s control sequence (basically
1128the opposite of C<string:> - instead of sending it to the program running
1129in the terminal, it will be treated as if it were program output). This is
1130most useful to feed command sequences into @@RXVT_NAME@@.
1131
1113example the following means "change the current locale to C<zh_CN.GBK> 1132For example the following means "change the current locale to C<zh_CN.GBK>
1114when Control-Meta-c is being pressed": 1133when Control-Meta-c is being pressed":
1115 1134
1116 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007 1135 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007
1117 1136

1119is passed to the C<on_keyboard_command> perl handler. See the @@RXVT_NAME@@perl(3) 1138the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
1120manpage. For example, the F<selection> extension (activated via 1139font-switching at runtime:
1121C<@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe selection>) listens for C<selection:rot13> events:
1122 1140
1123 URxvt.keysym.M-C-c: perl:selection:rot13 1141 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007
1142 URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007
1124 1143
1125Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping 1144Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more
1126will match if at I<at least> the specified identifiers are being set, and 1145info):
1127no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
1128means that defining a key map for C<a> will automatically provide
1129definitions for C<Meta-a>, C<Shift-a> and so on, unless some of those are defined
1130mappings themselves.
1131 1146
1132Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example 1147 URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t
1148 URxvt.keysym.M-C-4: command:\033[8;48;110t
1149
1150=item builtin:
1151
1152The builtin action is the action that @@RXVT_NAME@@ would execute if no
1153key binding existed for the key combination. The obvious use is to undo
1154the effect of existing bindings. The not so obvious use is to reinstate
1155bindings when another binding overrides too many modifiers.
1156
1133if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable @@RXVT_NAME@@'s 1157For example if you overwrite the C<Insert> key you will disable
1134C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke "holes" into the 1158@@RXVT_NAME@@'s C<Shift-Insert> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke
1135user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement: 1159"holes" into the user-defined keymap using the C<builtin:> replacement:
1136 1160
1137 URxvt.keysym.Insert: <my insert key sequence> 1161 URxvt.keysym.Insert: <my insert key sequence>
1138 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin: 1162 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin:
1139 1163
1140The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination 1164The first line defines a mapping for C<Insert> and I<any> combination
1141of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for 1165of modifiers. The second line re-establishes the default mapping for
1142C<Shift-Insert>. 1166C<Shift-Insert>.
1143 1167
1144The following example will map Control-Meta-1 and Control-Meta-2 to 1168=item builtin-string:
1145the fonts C<suxuseuro> and C<9x15bold>, so you can have some limited
1146font-switching at runtime:
1147 1169
1148 URxvt.keysym.M-C-1: command:\033]50;suxuseuro\007 1170This action is mainly useful to restore string mappings for keys that
1149 URxvt.keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]50;9x15bold\007 1171have predefined actions in @@RXVT_NAME@@. The exact semantics are a bit
1172difficult to explain - basically, this action will send the string to the
1173application that would be sent if @@RXVT_NAME@@ wouldn't have a built-in
1174action for it.
1150 1175
1151Other things are possible, e.g. resizing (see @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) for more 1176An example might make it clearer: @@RXVT_NAME@@ normally pastes the
1152info): 1177selection when you press C<Shift-Insert>. With the following bindings, it
1178would instead emit the (undocumented, but what applications running in the
1179terminal might expect) sequence C<ESC [ 2 $> instead:
1153 1180
1154 URxvt.keysym.M-C-3: command:\033[8;25;80t 1181 URxvt.keysym.S-Insert: builtin-string:
1155 URxvt.keysym.M-C-4: command:\033[8;48;110t 1182 URxvt.keysym.C-S-Insert: builtin:
1183
1184The first line disables the paste functionality for that key
1185combination, and the second reinstates the default behaviour for
1186C<Control-Shift-Insert>, which would otherwise be overridden.
1187
1188Similarly, to let applications gain access to the C<C-M-c> (copy to
1189clipboard) and C<C-M-v> (paste clipboard) key combination, you can do
1190this:
1191
1192 URxvt.keysym.C-M-c: builtin-string:
1193 URxvt.keysym.C-M-v: builtin-string:

1417consist of a 4*4*4 RGB colour cube (i.e. I<index = r * 16 + g * 4 + b +
141816>), followed by 8 additional shades of gray (with indices 80 to 87).
1419 1610
1611The RGB cube uses indices 16..79 (16..231) using the following formulas:
1612
1613 index_88 = (r * 4 + g) * 4 + b + 16 # r, g, b = 0..3
1614 index_256 = (r * 6 + g) * 6 + b + 16 # r, g, b = 0..5

1617steps (1/26 to 25/26 in 1/26 steps) - black and white are already part of
