I often get asked about this, and I think, no, they didn't cause extra |
82 |
bloat. If you compare a minimal rxvt and a minimal urxvt, you can see |
83 |
that the urxvt binary is larger (due to some encoding tables always being |
84 |
compiled in), but it actually uses less memory (RSS) after startup. Even |
85 |
with <code>--disable-everything</code>, this comparison is a bit unfair, as many |
86 |
features unique to urxvt (locale, encoding conversion, iso14755 etc.) are |
87 |
already in use in this mode. |

<p>When you <a href="#item__2d_2denable_2deverything"><code>--enable-everything</code></a> (which _is_ unfair, as this involves xft |
97 |
and full locale/XIM support which are quite bloaty inside libX11 and my |
98 |
libc), the two diverge, but not unreasnobaly so.</p> |

107 |
<p>The very large size of the text section is explained by the east-asian |
108 |
encoding tables, which, if unused, take up disk space but nothing else |
109 |
and can be compiled out unless you rely on X11 core fonts that use those |
110 |
encodings. The BSS size comes from the 64k emergency buffer that my c++ |
111 |
compiler allocates (but of course doesn't use unless you are out of |
112 |
memory). Also, using an xft font instead of a core font immediately adds a |
113 |
few megabytes of RSS. Xft indeed is responsible for a lot of RSS even when |
114 |
not used.</p> |
115 |
</dd> |
116 |
<dd> |
117 |
<p>Of course, due to every character using two or four bytes instead of one, |
118 |
a large scrollback buffer will ultimately make rxvt-unicode use more |
119 |
memory.</p> |
120 |
</dd> |
121 |
<dd> |
122 |
<p>Compared to e.g. Eterm (5112k), aterm (3132k) and xterm (4680k), this |
123 |
still fares rather well. And compared to some monsters like gnome-terminal |
124 |
(21152k + extra 4204k in separate processes) or konsole (22200k + extra |
125 |
43180k in daemons that stay around after exit, plus half a minute of |
126 |
startup time, including the hundreds of warnings it spits out), it fares |
127 |
extremely well *g*.</p> |

131 |
</dt> |
132 |
<dd> |
133 |
Is this a question? :) It comes up very often. The simple answer is: I had |
134 |
to write it, and C++ allowed me to write and maintain it in a fraction |
135 |
of the time and effort (which is a scarce resource for me). Put even |
136 |
shorter: It simply wouldn't exist without C++. |
137 |
</dd> |
138 |
<dd> |
139 |
<p>My personal stance on this is that C++ is less portable than C, but in |
140 |
the case of rxvt-unicode this hardly matters, as its portability limits |
141 |
are defined by things like X11, pseudo terminals, locale support and unix |
142 |
domain sockets, which are all less portable than C++ itself.</p> |
143 |
</dd> |
144 |
<dd> |
145 |
<p>Regarding the bloat, see the above question: It's easy to write programs |
146 |
in C that use gobs of memory, an certainly possible to write programs in |
147 |
C++ that don't. C++ also often comes with large libraries, but this is |
148 |
not necessarily the case with GCC. Here is what rxvt links against on my |
149 |
system with a minimal config:</p> |

<dd> |
177 |
rxvt-unicode does not directly support tabs. It will work fine with |
178 |
tabbing functionality of many window managers or similar tabbing programs, |
179 |
and its embedding-features allow it to be embedded into other programs, |
180 |
as witnessed by <em>doc/rxvt-tabbed</em> or the upcoming <code>Gtk2::URxvt</code> perl |
181 |
module, which features a tabbed urxvt (murxvt) terminal as an example |
182 |
embedding application. |

188 |
The version number is displayed with the usage (-h). Also the escape |

<dd> |
197 |
The Debian GNU/Linux package of rxvt-unicode in sarge contains large |
198 |
patches that considerably change the behaviour of rxvt-unicode. Before |
199 |
reporting a bug to the original rxvt-unicode author please download and |
200 |
install the genuine version (<a href="http://software.schmorp.de#rxvt-unicode">http://software.schmorp.de#rxvt-unicode</a>) |
201 |
and try to reproduce the problem. If you cannot, chances are that the |
202 |
problems are specific to Debian GNU/Linux, in which case it should be |
203 |
reported via the Debian Bug Tracking System (use <code>reportbug</code> to report |
204 |
the bug). |
205 |
</dd> |
206 |
<dd> |
207 |
<p>For other problems that also affect the Debian package, you can and |
208 |
probably should use the Debian BTS, too, because, after all, it's also a |
209 |
bug in the Debian version and it serves as a reminder for other users that |
210 |
might encounter the same issue.</p> |

<dt><strong><a name="item_i_am_maintaining_rxvt_2dunicode_for_distribution_2">I am maintaining rxvt-unicode for distribution/OS XXX, any recommendation?</a></strong><br /> |
214 |
</dt> |
215 |
<dd> |
216 |
You should build one binary with the default options. <em>configure</em> |
217 |
now enables most useful options, and the trend goes to making them |
218 |
runtime-switchable, too, so there is usually no drawback to enbaling them, |
219 |
except higher disk and possibly memory usage. The perl interpreter should |
220 |
be enabled, as important functionality (menus, selection, likely more in |
221 |
the future) depends on it. |
222 |
</dd> |
223 |
<dd> |
224 |
<p>You should not overwrite the <code>perl-ext-common</code> snd <code>perl-ext</code> resources |
225 |
system-wide (except maybe with <code>defaults</code>). This will result in useful |
226 |
behaviour. If your distribution aims at low memory, add an empty |
227 |
<code>perl-ext-common</code> resource to the app-defaults file. This will keep the |
228 |
perl interpreter disabled until the user enables it.</p> |
229 |
</dd> |
230 |
<dd> |
231 |
<p>If you can/want build more binaries, I recommend building a minimal |
232 |
one with <code>--disable-everything</code> (very useful) and a maximal one with |
233 |
<a href="#item__2d_2denable_2deverything"><code>--enable-everything</code></a> (less useful, it will be very big due to a lot of |
234 |
encodings built-in that increase download times and are rarely used).</p> |
235 |
</dd> |
236 |
<p></p> |
237 |
<dt><strong><a name="item_i_need_to_make_it_setuid_2fsetgid_to_support_utmp_">I need to make it setuid/setgid to support utmp/ptys on my OS, is this safe?</a></strong><br /> |
238 |
</dt> |
239 |
<dd> |
240 |
Likely not. While I honestly try to make it secure, and am probably not |
241 |
bad at it, I think it is simply unreasonable to expect all of freetype |
242 |
+ fontconfig + xft + xlib + perl + ... + rxvt-unicode itself to all be |
243 |
secure. Also, rxvt-unicode disables some options when it detects that it |
244 |
runs setuid or setgid, which is not nice. Besides, with the embedded perl |
245 |
interpreter the possibility for security problems easily multiplies. |
246 |
</dd> |
247 |
<dd> |
248 |
<p>Elevated privileges are only required for utmp and pty operations on some |
249 |
systems (for example, GNU/Linux doesn't need any extra privileges for |
250 |
ptys, but some need it for utmp support). It is planned to mvoe this into |
251 |
a forked handler process, but this is not yet done.</p> |
252 |
</dd> |
253 |
<dd> |
254 |
<p>So, while setuid/setgid operation is supported and not a problem on your |
255 |
typical single-user-no-other-logins unix desktop, always remember that |
256 |
its an awful lot of code, most of which isn't checked for security issues |
257 |
regularly.</p> |

261 |
</dt> |
262 |
<dd> |
263 |
The terminal description used by rxvt-unicode is not as widely available |
264 |
as that for xterm, or even rxvt (for which the same problem often arises). |
265 |
</dd> |
266 |
<dd> |
267 |
<p>The correct solution for this problem is to install the terminfo, this can |
268 |
be done like this (with ncurses' infocmp):</p> |
269 |
</dd> |
270 |
<dd> |

274 |
</dd> |
275 |
<dd> |
276 |
<p>... or by installing rxvt-unicode normally on the remote system,</p> |
277 |
</dd> |
278 |
<dd> |
279 |
<p>If you cannot or do not want to do this, then you can simply set |
280 |
<code>TERM=rxvt</code> or even <code>TERM=xterm</code>, and live with the small number of |
281 |
problems arising, which includes wrong keymapping, less and different |
282 |
colours and some refresh errors in fullscreen applications. It's a nice |
283 |
quick-and-dirty workaround for rare cases, though.</p> |
284 |
</dd> |
285 |
<dd> |
286 |
<p>If you always want to do this (and are fine with the consequences) you |
287 |
can either recompile rxvt-unicode with the desired TERM value or use a |
288 |
resource to set it:</p> |
289 |

290 |

291 |
<pre> |
292 |
URxvt.termName: rxvt</pre> |
293 |
</dd> |
294 |
<dd> |
295 |
<p>If you don't plan to use <strong>rxvt</strong> (quite common...) you could also replace |
296 |
the rxvt terminfo file with the rxvt-unicode one.</p> |

301 |
<dd> |
302 |
Most likely it's the empty definition for <code>enacs=</code>. Just replace it by |
303 |

311 |
One reason you might want this is that some distributions or operating |
312 |
systems still compile some programs using the long-obsoleted termcap |
313 |
library (Fedora Core's bash is one example) and rely on a termcap entry |
314 |
for <code>rxvt-unicode</code>. |
315 |
</dd> |
316 |
<dd> |
317 |
<p>You could use rxvt's termcap entry with resonable results in many cases. |
318 |
You can also create a termcap entry by using terminfo's infocmp program |
319 |
like this:</p> |
320 |
</dd> |
321 |
<dd> |
322 |
<pre> |
323 |
infocmp -C rxvt-unicode</pre> |
324 |
</dd> |
325 |
<dd> |
326 |
<p>Or you could use this termcap entry, generated by the command above:</p> |

Make sure you are using <code>TERM=rxvt-unicode</code>. Some pre-packaged |

distributions (most notably Debian GNU/Linux) break rxvt-unicode |
384 |
by setting <code>TERM</code> to <code>rxvt</code>, which doesn't have these extra |

features. Unfortunately, some of these (most notably, again, Debian |
386 |
GNU/Linux) furthermore fail to even install the <code>rxvt-unicode</code> terminfo |

Most fonts do not contain the full range of Unicode, which is |

<p><strong>rxvt-unicode</strong> makes a best-effort try at finding a replacement |

font. Often the result is fine, but sometimes the chosen font looks |
459 |
bad/ugly/wrong. Some fonts have totally strange characters that don't |
460 |
resemble the correct glyph at all, and rxvt-unicode lacks the artificial |
461 |
intelligence to detect that a specific glyph is wrong: it has to believe |
462 |
the font that the characters it claims to contain indeed look correct.</p> |

</dd> |

</dd> |
472 |
<dd> |

<p>When rxvt-unicode sees a character, it will first look at the base |

font. If the base font does not contain the character, it will go to the |

next font, and so on. Specifying your own fonts will also speed up this |

search and use less resources within rxvt-unicode and the X-server.</p> |
477 |
</dd> |
478 |
<dd> |
479 |
<p>The only limitation is that none of the fonts may be larger than the base |

487 |
This is because there is a difference between script and language -- |
488 |
rxvt-unicode does not know which language the text that is output is, |
489 |
as it only knows the unicode character codes. If rxvt-unicode first |
490 |
sees a japanese/chinese character, it might choose a japanese font for |
491 |
display. Subsequent japanese characters will use that font. Now, many |
492 |
chinese characters aren't represented in japanese fonts, so when the first |
493 |
non-japanese character comes up, rxvt-unicode will look for a chinese font |
494 |
-- unfortunately at this point, it will still use the japanese font for |
495 |
chinese characters that are also in the japanese font. |
496 |
</dd> |
497 |
<dd> |
498 |
<p>The workaround is easy: just tag a chinese font at the end of your font |
499 |
list (see the previous question). The key is to view the font list as |
500 |
a preference list: If you expect more japanese, list a japanese font |
501 |
first. If you expect more chinese, put a chinese font first.</p> |
502 |
</dd> |
503 |
<dd> |
504 |
<p>In the future it might be possible to switch language preferences at |
505 |
runtime (the internal data structure has no problem with using different |

507 |
has been designed yet).</p> |
508 |

Most fonts were not designed for terminal use, which means that character |
517 |
size varies a lot. A font that is otherwise fine for terminal use might |
518 |
contain some characters that are simply too wide. Rxvt-unicode will avoid |

these characters. For characters that are just ``a bit'' too wide a special |

``careful'' rendering mode is used that redraws adjacent characters. |

</dd> |

523 |
<p>All of this requires that fonts do not lie about character sizes, |

however: Xft fonts often draw glyphs larger than their acclaimed bounding |

ask for the character bounding box, which unfortunately is wrong in these |

cases).</p> |

</dd> |
529 |
<dd> |
530 |
<p>It's not clear (to me at least), wether this is a bug in Xft, freetype, |

or the respective font. If you encounter this problem you might try using |

the <code>-lsp</code> option to give the font more height. If that doesn't work, you |

The most common causes for this are that either your locale is not set |
556 |
correctly, or you specified a <strong>preeditStyle</strong> that is not supported by |
557 |
your input method. For example, if you specified <strong>OverTheSpot</strong> and |
558 |
your input method (e.g. the default input method handling Compose keys) |
559 |
does not support this (for instance because it is not visual), then |
560 |
rxvt-unicode will continue without an input method. |
561 |
</dd> |
562 |
<dd> |

<p>In this case either do not specify a <strong>preeditStyle</strong> or specify more than |

Unlike some other terminals, rxvt-unicode has no encoding switch, and no |

UTF-8 or any other encodings with respect to terminal I/O. |

677 |
<p>The reasons is that there exists a perfectly fine mechanism for selecting |
678 |
the encoding, doing I/O and (most important) communicating this to all |
679 |
applications so everybody agrees on character properties such as width |
680 |
and code number. This mechanism is the <em>locale</em>. Applications not using |
681 |
that info will have problems (for example, <code>xterm</code> gets the width of |

characters wrong as it uses it's own, locale-independent table under all |
683 |
locales).</p> |
684 |
</dd> |
685 |
<dd> |
686 |
<p>Rxvt-unicode uses the <code>LC_CTYPE</code> locale category to select encoding. All |

programs doing the same (that is, most) will automatically agree in the |
688 |
interpretation of characters.</p> |
689 |
</dd> |
690 |

</dd> |
694 |
<dd> |
695 |
<p>On most systems, the content of the <code>LC_CTYPE</code> environment variable |

Yes, using an escape sequence. Try something like this, which sets |

<p>Sometimes this capability is rather handy when you want to work in |

Many fonts have difficulties with italic characters and hinting. For |

You can specify separate locales for the input method and the rest of the |

Unfortunately, this is unavoidable, as the XIM protocol is racy by |

Rxvt-unicode tries to obey the rule of not charging you for something you |
811 |
don't use. One thing you should try is to configure out all settings that |
812 |
you don't need, for example, Xft support is a resource hog by design, |
813 |
when used. Compiling it out ensures that no Xft font will be loaded |
814 |
accidentally when rxvt-unicode tries to find a font for your characters. |

<dd> |
817 |
<p>Also, many people (me included) like large windows and even larger |
818 |
scrollback buffers: Without <code>--enable-unicode3</code>, rxvt-unicode will use |
819 |
6 bytes per screen cell. For a 160x?? window this amounts to almost a |
820 |
kilobyte per line. A scrollback buffer of 10000 lines will then (if full) |
821 |
use 10 Megabytes of memory. With <code>--enable-unicode3</code> it gets worse, as |
822 |
rxvt-unicode then uses 8 bytes per screen cell.</p> |

<dd> |
828 |
Yes, the most obvious way to speed it up is to avoid Xft entirely, as |
829 |
it is simply slow. If you still want Xft fonts you might try to disable |
830 |
antialiasing (by appending <code>:antialias=false</code>), which saves lots of |

Rxvt-unicode will use whatever you specify as a font. If it needs to |

fonts, because they are small and fast, and then use Xft fonts. It has |

antialiasing disabled for most of them, because the author thinks they |
841 |
look best that way. |

<p>Historically, either value is correct, but rxvt-unicode adopts the debian |

<p>Rather than have rxvt-unicode try to accommodate all the various possible |
1073 |
keyboard mappings, it is better to use `xmodmap' to remap the keys as |
1074 |
required for your particular machine.</p> |

1080 |
rxvt and rxvt-unicode always export the variable ``COLORTERM'', so you can |
1081 |
check and see if that is set. Note that several programs, JED, slrn, |
1082 |
Midnight Commander automatically check this variable to decide whether or |
1083 |
not to use color. |

If you've compiled rxvt-unicode with DISPLAY_IS_IP and have enabled |
1090 |
insecure mode then it is possible to use the following shell script |
1091 |
snippets to correctly set the display. If your version of rxvt-unicode |
1092 |
wasn't also compiled with ESCZ_ANSWER (as assumed in these snippets) then |
1093 |
the COLORTERM variable can be used to distinguish rxvt-unicode from a |
1094 |
regular xterm. |

<h1><a name="menubar">menuBar</a></h1> |
1938 |
<p><strong>The exact syntax used is <em>almost</em> solidified. </strong>> |
1939 |
In the menus, <strong>DON'T</strong> try to use menuBar commands that add or remove a |
1940 |
menuBar.</p> |
1941 |
<p>Note that in all of the commands, the <strong><em>/path/</em> </strong>> <em>cannot</em> be |
1942 |
omitted: use <strong>./</strong> to specify a menu relative to the current menu.</p> |
1943 |
<p> |
1944 |
</p> |
1945 |
<h2><a name="overview_of_menubar_operation">Overview of menuBar operation</a></h2> |
1946 |
<p>For the menuBar XTerm escape sequence <code>ESC ] 703 ; Pt ST</code>, the syntax |
1947 |
of <a href="#item_pt"><code>Pt</code></a> can be used for a variety of tasks:</p> |
1948 |
<p>At the top level is the current menuBar which is a member of a circular |
1949 |
linked-list of other such menuBars.</p> |
1950 |
<p>The menuBar acts as a parent for the various drop-down menus, which in |
1951 |
turn, may have labels, separator lines, menuItems and subMenus.</p> |
1952 |
<p>The menuItems are the useful bits: you can use them to mimic keyboard |
1953 |
input or even to send text or escape sequences back to rxvt.</p> |
1954 |
<p>The menuBar syntax is intended to provide a simple yet robust method of |
1955 |
constructing and manipulating menus and navigating through the |
1956 |
menuBars.</p> |
1957 |
<p>The first step is to use the tag <strong>[menu:<em>name</em>] </strong>> which creates |
1958 |
the menuBar called <em>name</em> and allows access. You may now or menus, |
1959 |
subMenus, and menuItems. Finally, use the tag <strong>[done]</strong> to set the |
1960 |
menuBar access as <strong>readonly</strong> to prevent accidental corruption of the |
1961 |
menus. To re-access the current menuBar for alterations, use the tag |
1962 |
<strong>[menu]</strong>, make the alterations and then use <strong>[done]</strong></p> |

<h2><a name="quick_arrows">Quick Arrows</a></h2> |
2275 |
<p>The menus also provide a hook for <em>quick arrows</em> to provide easier |
2276 |
user access. If nothing has been explicitly set, the default is to |
2277 |
emulate the curror keys. The syntax permits each arrow to be altered |
2278 |
individually or all four at once without re-entering their common |
2279 |
beginning/end text. For example, to explicitly associate cursor actions |
2280 |
with the arrows, any of the following forms could be used:</p> |

<h1><a name="configure_options">CONFIGURE OPTIONS</a></h1> |
2702 |
<p>General hint: if you get compile errors, then likely your configuration |
2703 |
hasn't been tested well. Either try with <a href="#item__2d_2denable_2deverything"><code>--enable-everything</code></a> or use |
2704 |
the <em>./reconf</em> script as a base for experiments. <em>./reconf</em> is used by |
2705 |
myself, so it should generally be a working config. Of course, you should |
2706 |
always report when a combination doesn't work, so it can be fixed. Marc |

Add support for Xft (anti-aliases, among others) fonts. Xft fonts are |
2728 |
slower and require lots of memory, but as long as you don't use them, you |

don't pay for them. |

Compile in support for additional codeset (encoding) groups (<code>eu</code>, <code>vn</code> |
2743 |
are always compiled in, which includes most 8-bit character sets). These |
2744 |
codeset tables are used for driving X11 core fonts, they are not required |
2745 |
for Xft fonts, although having them compiled in lets rxvt-unicode choose |
2746 |
replacement fonts more intelligently. Compiling them in will make your |
2747 |
binary bigger (all of together cost about 700kB), but it doesn't increase |
2748 |
memory usage unless you use a font requiring one of these encodings. |

Add support for XIM (X Input Method) protocol. This allows using |

alternative input methods (e.g. kinput2) and will also correctly |

set up the input for people using dead keys or compose keys. |

2768 |
<dd> |
2769 |
Enable direct support for displaying unicode codepoints above |
2770 |
65535 (the basic multilingual page). This increases storage |
2771 |
requirements per character from 2 to 4 bytes. X11 fonts do not yet |

<p>Please note that rxvt-unicode can store unicode code points >65535 |
2776 |
even without this flag, but the number of such characters is |
2777 |
limited to a view thousand (shared with combining characters, |
2778 |

Enable automatic composition of combining characters into |
2786 |
composite characters. This is required for proper viewing of text |
2787 |
where accents are encoded as seperate unicode characters. This is |
2788 |
done by using precomposited characters when available or creating |
2789 |
new pseudo-characters when no precomposed form exists. |
2790 |
</dd> |
2791 |
<dd> |
2792 |
<p>Without --enable-unicode3, the number of additional precomposed characters |
2793 |
is rather limited (2048, if this is full, rxvt-unicode will use the |
2794 |
private use area, extending the number of combinations to 8448). With |

--enable-unicode3, no practical limit exists.</p> |
