		479	Tells @@RXVT_NAME@@ to embed its windows into an already-existing window,
		480	which enables applications to easily embed a terminal.
		481
		482	Right now, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will first unmap/map the specified window, so it
		483	shouldn't be a top-level window. @@RXVT_NAME@@ will also reconfigure it
		484	quite a bit, so don't expect it to keep some specific state. It's best to
		485	create an extra subwindow for @@RXVT_NAME@@ and leave it alone.
		486
		487	The window will not be destroyed when @@RXVT_NAME@@ exits.
		488
		489	It might be useful to know that @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not close file
		490	descriptors passed to it (except for stdin/out/err, of course), so you
		491	can use file descriptors to communicate with the programs within the
		492	terminal. This works regardless of whether the C<-embed> option was used or
		493	not.
		494
		495	Here is a short Gtk2-perl snippet that illustrates how this option can be
		496	used (a longer example is in F<doc/embed>):
		497
		498	my $rxvt = new Gtk2::Socket;
		499	$rxvt->signal_connect_after (realize => sub {
		500	my $xid = $_[0]->window->get_xid;

		505
		506	Tells @@RXVT_NAME@@ NOT to execute any commands or create a new pty/tty
		507	pair but instead use the given file descriptor as the tty master. This is
		508	useful if you want to drive @@RXVT_NAME@@ as a generic terminal emulator
		509	without having to run a program within it.
		510
		511	If this switch is given, @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not create any utmp/wtmp
		512	entries and will not tinker with pty/tty permissions - you have to do that
		513	yourself if you want that.
		514
		515	As an extremely special case, specifying C<-1> will completely suppress
		516	pty/tty operations, which is probably only useful in conjunction with some
		517	perl extension that manages the terminal.
		518
		519	Here is a example in perl that illustrates how this option can be used (a
		520	longer example is in F<doc/pty-fd>):

		522	use IO::Pty;

		524

		1470	=head2 ALPHA CHANNEL SUPPORT
		1471
		1472	If Xft support has been compiled in and as long as Xft/Xrender/X don't get
		1473	their act together, rxvt-unicode will do it's own alpha channel management:
		1474
		1475	You can prefix any color with an opaquenes percentage enclosed in
		1476	brackets, i.e. C<[percent]>, where C<percent> is a decimal percentage
		1477	(0-100) that specifies the opacity of the color, where C<0> is completely
		1478	transparent and C<100> is completely opaque. For example, C<[50]red> is a
		1479	half-transparent red, while C<[95]#00ff00> is an almost opaque green. This
		1480	is the recommended format to specify transparency values, and works with
		1481	all ways to specify a colour.
		1482
		1483	For complete control, rxvt-unicode also supports
		1484	C<rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa> (exactly four hex digits/component) colour
		1485	specifications, where the additional C<aaaa> component specifies opacity
		1486	(alpha) values. The minimum value of C<0000> is completely transparent,
		1487	while C<ffff> is completely opaque). The two example colours from
		1488	earlier could also be specified as C<rgba:ff00/0000/0000/8000> and
		1489	C<rgba:0000/ff00/0000/f332>.
		1490
		1491	You probably need to specify B<"-depth 32">, too, to force a visual with
		1492	alpha channels, and have the luck that your X-server uses ARGB pixel
		1493	layout, as X is far from just supporting ARGB visuals out of the box, and
		1494	rxvt-unicode just fudges around.
		1495
		1496	For example, the following selects an almost completely transparent black
		1497	background, and an almost opaque pink foreground:
		1498
		1499	@@RXVT_NAME@@ -depth 32 -bg rgba:0000/0000/0000/4444 -fg "[80]pink"
		1500
		1501	When not using a background image, then the interpretation of the
		1502	alpha channel is up to your compositing manager (most interpret it as
		1503	transparency of course).
		1504
		1505	When using a background pixmap or pseudo-transparency, then the background
		1506	colour will always behave as if it were completely transparent (so the
		1507	background image shows instead), regardless of how it was specified, while
		1508	other colours will either be transparent as specified (the background
		1509	image will show through) on servers supporting the RENDER extension, or
		1510	fully opaque on servers not supporting the RENDER EXTENSION.
		1511
		1512	Please note that due to bugs in Xft, specifying alpha values might result
		1513	in garbage being displayed when the X-server does not support the RENDER
		1514	extension.
