399 There are two different methods that rxvt can use to get the Xresource
400 data: using the X libraries (Xrm*-functions) or internal Xresources
401 reader (~/.Xdefaults). For the first method (ie. rxvt -h lists
402 XGetDefaults), you can set and change the resources using X11 tools like 416 You can set and change the resources using X11 tools like xrdb. Many

413 If compiled with internal Xresources support (i.e. rxvt -h lists 427 Note that when reading X resources, rxvt recognizes two class names:
414 .Xdefaults) then rxvt accepts application defaults set in 428 Rxvt and URxvt. The class name Rxvt allows resources common to both rxvt

417 ~/.Xresources if ~/.Xdefaults does not exist. Note that when reading X
418 resources, rxvt recognizes two class names: XTerm and URxvt. The class
419 name Rxvt allows resources common to both rxvt and the original *rxvt*
420 to be easily configured, while the class name URxvt allows resources
421 unique to rxvt, notably colours and key-handling, to be shared between

945 Extension names can also be followed by an argument in angle
946 brackets (e.g. "searchable-scrollback<M-s>", which binds the hotkey
947 for searchable scorllback to Alt/Meta-s). Mentioning the same
948 extension multiple times with different arguments will pass multiple
949 arguments to the extension.
950
951 Each extension is looked up in the library directories, loaded if
952 necessary, and bound to the current terminal instance.
953
954 If both of these resources are the empty string, then the perl
955 interpreter will not be initialized. The idea behind two options is
956 that perl-ext-common will be used for extensions that should be
957 available to all instances, while perl-ext is used for specific
958 instances.
959
960 perl-eval: *string*
961 Perl code to be evaluated when all extensions have been registered.
962 See the rxvtperl(3) manpage. Due to security reasons, this resource
963 will be ignored when running setuid/setgid.
964
965 perl-lib: *path*
966 Colon-separated list of additional directories that hold extension
967 scripts. When looking for extensions specified by the "perl"
968 resource, rxvt will first look in these directories and then in
969 /opt/rxvt/lib/urxvt/perl/. Due to security reasons, this resource
970 will be ignored when running setuid/setgid.
971
972 See the rxvtperl(3) manpage.

974 selection.pattern-*idx*: *perl-regex*
975 Additional selection patterns, see the rxvtperl(3) manpage for
976 details.

978 selection-autotransform.*idx*: *perl-transform*
979 Selection auto-transform patterns, see the rxvtperl(3) manpage for
980 details.
981
982 searchable-scrollback: *keysym*
983 Sets the hotkey that starts the incremental scrollback buffer search
984 (default: "M-s").
985
986 urlLauncher: *string*
987 Specifies the program to be started with a URL argument. Used by the
988 "selection-popup" and "mark-urls" perl extensions.
989
990 transient-for: *windowid*
991 Compile *frills*: Sets the WM_TRANSIENT_FOR property to the given
992 window id.
993
994 override-redirect: *boolean*
995 Compile *frills*: Sets override-redirect for the terminal window,
996 making it almost invisible to window managers; option
997 -override-redirect.
