The Debian GNU/Linux package of rxvt-unicode in sarge contains large |
37 |
|
|
patches that considerably change the behaviour of rxvt-unicode. Before |
38 |
|
|
reporting a bug to the original rxvt-unicode author please download and |
39 |
|
|
install the genuine version (L<http://software.schmorp.de#rxvt-unicode>) |
40 |
|
|
and try to reproduce the problem. If you cannot, chances are that the |
41 |
|
|
problems are specific to Debian GNU/Linux, in which case it should be |
42 |
|
|
reported via the Debian Bug Tracking System (use C<reportbug> to report |
43 |
|
|
the bug). |
44 |
root |
1.44 |
|
45 |
|
|
For other problems that also affect the Debian package, you can and |
46 |
|
|
probably should use the Debian BTS, too, because, after all, it's also a |
47 |
|
|
bug in the Debian version and it serves as a reminder for other users that |
48 |
|
|
might encounter the same issue. |

=item When I log-in to another system it tells me about missing terminfo data? |
51 |
|
|
|
52 |
|
|
The terminal description used by rxvt-unicode is not as widely available |
53 |
|
|
as that for xterm, or even rxvt (for which the same problem often arises). |
54 |
|
|
|
55 |
|
|
The correct solution for this problem is to install the terminfo, this can |
56 |
|
|
be done like this (with ncurses' infocmp): |
57 |
|
|
|
58 |
|
|
REMOTE=remotesystem.domain |
59 |
|
|
infocmp rxvt-unicode | ssh $REMOTE "cat >/tmp/ti && tic /tmp/ti" |
60 |
|
|
|
61 |
|
|
... or by installing rxvt-unicode normally on the remote system, |
62 |
|
|
|
63 |
|
|
If you cannot or do not want to do this, then you can simply set |
64 |
|
|
C<TERM=rxvt> or even C<TERM=xterm>, and live with the small number of |
65 |
|
|
problems arising, which includes wrong keymapping, less and different |
66 |
|
|
colours and some refresh errors in fullscreen applications. It's a nice |
67 |
|
|
quick-and-dirty workaround for rare cases, though. |
68 |
|
|
|
69 |
root |
1.44 |
If you always want to do this (and are fine with the consequences) you |
70 |
|
|
can either recompile rxvt-unicode with the desired TERM value or use a |
71 |
|
|
resource to set it: |
72 |
root |
1.25 |
|
73 |
|
|
URxvt.termName: rxvt |
74 |
|
|
|
75 |
|
|
If you don't plan to use B<rxvt> (quite common...) you could also replace |
76 |
|
|
the rxvt terminfo file with the rxvt-unicode one. |
77 |
|
|
|
78 |
root |
1.58 |
=item C<tic> outputs some error when compiling the terminfo entry. |
79 |
|
|
|
80 |
|
|
Most likely it's the empty definition for C<enacs=>. Just replace it by |
81 |
|
|
C<enacs=\E[0@> and try again. |
82 |
|
|
|
83 |
root |
1.44 |
=item C<bash>'s readline does not work correctly under @@RXVT_NAME@@. |

=item I need a termcap file entry. |
86 |
|
|
|
87 |
root |
1.44 |
One reason you might want this is that some distributions or operating |
88 |
|
|
systems still compile some programs using the long-obsoleted termcap |
89 |
root |
1.47 |
library (Fedora Core's bash is one example) and rely on a termcap entry |
90 |
|
|
for C<rxvt-unicode>. |
91 |
root |
1.44 |
|
92 |
root |
1.25 |
You could use rxvt's termcap entry with resonable results in many cases. |
93 |
|
|
You can also create a termcap entry by using terminfo's infocmp program |
94 |
|
|
like this: |
95 |
|
|
|
96 |
|
|
infocmp -C rxvt-unicode |
97 |
|
|
|
98 |
root |
1.44 |
Or you could use this termcap entry, generated by the command above: |

122 |

123 |

The C<ls> in the GNU coreutils unfortunately doesn't use terminfo to |
124 |
|
|
decide wether a terminal has colour, but uses it's own configuration |
125 |
|
|

126 |
|
|
with most other terminals supporting colour). Either add: |

1.33 |
TERM rxvt-unicode |
129 |
|

to C</etc/DIR_COLORS> or simply add: |
131 |
|
|
|
132 |
|
|
alias ls='ls --color=auto' |
133 |
|

134 |

Make sure you are using C<TERM=rxvt-unicode>. Some pre-packaged |
143 |
|
|
distributions (most notably Debian GNU/Linux) break rxvt-unicode |
144 |
|
|
by setting C<TERM> to C<rxvt>, which doesn't have these extra |
145 |
|
|
features. Unfortunately, some of these (most notably, again, Debian |
146 |
|
|
GNU/Linux) furthermore fail to even install the C<rxvt-unicode> terminfo |
147 |
|
|
file, so you will need to install it on your own (See the question B<When |
148 |
|
|
I log-in to another system it tells me about missing terminfo data?> on |
149 |
|
|
how to do this). |

Some Debian GNUL/Linux users seem to have this problem, although no |
154 |
|
|
specific details were reported so far. It is possible that this is caused |
155 |
|
|
by the wrong C<TERM> setting, although the details of wether and how |
156 |
|
|
this can happen are unknown, as C<TERM=rxvt> should offer a compatible |
157 |
|
|
keymap. See the answer to the previous question, and please report if that |
158 |

helped. |

If you encounter strange problems like typing an accented character but |
165 |
|
|
getting two unrelated other characters or similar, or if program output is |
166 |
|
|
subtly garbled, then you should check your locale settings. |
167 |
|
|
|
168 |
|
|
Rxvt-unicode must be started with the same C<LC_CTYPE> setting as the |
169 |
|
|
programs. Often rxvt-unicode is started in the C<C> locale, while the |
170 |
|
|
login script running within the rxvt-unicode window changes the locale to |
171 |
root |
1.44 |
something else, e.g. C<en_GB.UTF-8>. Needless to say, this is not going to work. |
172 |
root |
1.25 |
|
173 |
|
|
The best thing is to fix your startup environment, as you will likely run |
174 |
|
|
into other problems. If nothing works you can try this in your .profile. |
175 |
|
|
|
176 |
|
|
printf '\e]701;%s\007' "$LC_CTYPE" |
177 |
|
|
|
178 |
|
|
If this doesn't work, then maybe you use a C<LC_CTYPE> specification not |
179 |
|
|
supported on your systems. Some systems have a C<locale> command which |
180 |
root |
1.44 |
displays this (also, C<perl -e0> can be used to check locale settings, as |
181 |
|
|
it will complain loudly if it cannot set the locale). If it displays something |
182 |
|
|
like: |
183 |
root |
1.25 |
|
184 |
|
|
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: ... |
185 |
|
|
|
186 |
|
|
Then the locale you specified is not supported on your system. |
187 |
|
|
|
188 |
|
|
If nothing works and you are sure that everything is set correctly then |
189 |
|
|
you will need to remember a little known fact: Some programs just don't |
190 |
|
|
support locales :( |

=item Why do some characters look so much different than others? |
193 |
|
|
|
194 |
|
|
=item How does rxvt-unicode choose fonts? |
195 |
|
|
|
196 |
|
|
Most fonts do not contain the full range of Unicode, which is |
197 |
|
|
fine. Chances are that the font you (or the admin/package maintainer of |
198 |
|
|
your system/os) have specified does not cover all the characters you want |
199 |
|
|
to display. |
200 |
|
|
|
201 |
|
|
B<rxvt-unicode> makes a best-effort try at finding a replacement |
202 |
|
|
font. Often the result is fine, but sometimes the chosen font looks |
203 |
root |
1.44 |
bad/ugly/wrong. Some fonts have totally strange characters that don't |
204 |
|
|
resemble the correct glyph at all, and rxvt-unicode lacks the artificial |
205 |
|
|
intelligence to detect that a specific glyph is wrong: it has to believe |
206 |
|
|
the font that the characters it claims to contain indeed look correct. |
207 |
root |
1.25 |
|
208 |
|
|
In that case, select a font of your taste and add it to the font list, |
209 |
|
|
e.g.: |
210 |
|
|
|
211 |
|
|
@@RXVT_NAME@@ -fn basefont,font2,font3... |
212 |
|
|
|
213 |
|
|
When rxvt-unicode sees a character, it will first look at the base |
214 |
|
|
font. If the base font does not contain the character, it will go to the |
215 |
|
|
next font, and so on. Specifying your own fonts will also speed up this |
216 |
|
|
search and use less resources within rxvt-unicode and the X-server. |
217 |
|
|
|
218 |
root |
1.44 |
The only limitation is that none of the fonts may be larger than the base |
219 |
|
|
font, as the base font defines the terminal character cell size, which |
220 |
|
|
must be the same due to the way terminals work. |

=item Why do some chinese characters look so different than others? |
223 |
|
|
|
224 |
|
|
This is because there is a difference between script and language -- |
225 |
root |
1.44 |
rxvt-unicode does not know which language the text that is output is, |
226 |
|
|
as it only knows the unicode character codes. If rxvt-unicode first |
227 |
|
|
sees a japanese/chinese character, it might choose a japanese font for |
228 |
|
|
display. Subsequent japanese characters will use that font. Now, many |
229 |
|
|
chinese characters aren't represented in japanese fonts, so when the first |
230 |
root |
1.25 |
non-japanese character comes up, rxvt-unicode will look for a chinese font |
231 |
|
|
-- unfortunately at this point, it will still use the japanese font for |
232 |
root |
1.44 |
chinese characters that are also in the japanese font. |
233 |
root |
1.25 |
|
234 |
|
|
The workaround is easy: just tag a chinese font at the end of your font |
235 |
|
|
list (see the previous question). The key is to view the font list as |
236 |
|
|
a preference list: If you expect more japanese, list a japanese font |
237 |
|
|
first. If you expect more chinese, put a chinese font first. |
238 |
|
|
|
239 |
root |
1.44 |
In the future it might be possible to switch language preferences at |
240 |
|
|
runtime (the internal data structure has no problem with using different |
241 |
|
|
fonts for the same character at the same time, but no interface for this |
242 |
|
|
has been designed yet). |
243 |
|
|
|
244 |
|
|
Until then, you might get away with switching fonts at runtime (see L<Can |
245 |
|
|
I switch the fonts at runtime?> later in this document). |

=item Why does rxvt-unicode sometimes leave pixel droppings? |
248 |
|
|
|
249 |
|
|
Most fonts were not designed for terminal use, which means that character |
250 |
|
|
size varies a lot. A font that is otherwise fine for terminal use might |
251 |
|
|
contain some characters that are simply too wide. Rxvt-unicode will avoid |
252 |
|
|
these characters. For characters that are just "a bit" too wide a special |
253 |
|
|
"careful" rendering mode is used that redraws adjacent characters. |
254 |
|
|
|
255 |
|
|
All of this requires that fonts do not lie about character sizes, |
256 |
|
|
however: Xft fonts often draw glyphs larger than their acclaimed bounding |
257 |
|
|
box, and rxvt-unicode has no way of detecting this (the correct way is to |
258 |
|
|
ask for the character bounding box, which unfortunately is wrong in these |
259 |
|
|
cases). |
260 |
|
|
|
261 |
root |
1.33 |
It's not clear (to me at least), wether this is a bug in Xft, freetype, |
262 |
|
|
or the respective font. If you encounter this problem you might try using |
263 |
|
|
the C<-lsp> option to give the font more height. If that doesn't work, you |
264 |
|
|
might be forced to use a different font. |
265 |
root |
1.25 |
|
266 |
|
|
All of this is not a problem when using X11 core fonts, as their bounding |
267 |
|
|
box data is correct. |

=item My Compose (Multi_key) key is no longer working. |
278 |
|
|
|
279 |
|
|
The most common causes for this are that either your locale is not set |
280 |
|
|
correctly, or you specified a B<preeditStyle> that is not supported by |
281 |
|
|
your input method. For example, if you specified B<OverTheSpot> and |
282 |
|
|
your input method (e.g. the default input method handling Compose keys) |
283 |
|
|
does not support this (for instance because it is not visual), then |
284 |
|
|
rxvt-unicode will continue without an input method. |
285 |
|
|
|
286 |
|
|
In this case either do not specify a B<preeditStyle> or specify more than |
287 |
|
|
one pre-edit style, such as B<OverTheSpot,Root,None>. |

First of all, make sure you are running with the right terminal settings |
300 |
|
|
(C<TERM=rxvt-unicode>), which will get rid of most of these effects. Then |
301 |
|
|
make sure you have specified colours for italic and bold, as otherwise |
302 |

rxvt-unicode might use reverse video to simulate the effect: |

For some unexplainable reason, some rare programs assume a very weird |
310 |
|
|
colour palette when confronted with a terminal with more than the standard |
311 |
|
|
8 colours (rxvt-unicode supports 88). The right fix is, of course, to fix |
312 |
|
|
these programs not to assume non-ISO colours without very good reasons. |
313 |
|
|
|
314 |
|
|
In the meantime, you can either edit your C<rxvt-unicode> terminfo |
315 |
|
|
definition to only claim 8 colour support or use C<TERM=rxvt>, which will |
316 |
|

fix colours but keep you from using other rxvt-unicode features. |

=item I am on FreeBSD and rxvt-unicode does not seem to work at all. |
319 |
|
|
|
320 |
|
|
Rxvt-unicode requires the symbol C<__STDC_ISO_10646__> to be defined |
321 |
|
|
in your compile environment, or an implementation that implements it, |
322 |
|
|
wether it defines the symbol or not. C<__STDC_ISO_10646__> requires that |
323 |
|
|
B<wchar_t> is represented as unicode. |
324 |
|
|
|
325 |
|
|
As you might have guessed, FreeBSD does neither define this symobl nor |
326 |
|
|
does it support it. Instead, it uses it's own internal representation of |
327 |
root |
1.44 |
B<wchar_t>. This is, of course, completely fine with respect to standards. |
328 |
root |
1.25 |
|
329 |
root |
1.52 |
However, that means rxvt-unicode only works in C<POSIX>, C<ISO-8859-1> and |
330 |
|
|
C<UTF-8> locales under FreeBSD (which all use Unicode as B<wchar_t>. |
331 |
|
|
|
332 |
|
|
C<__STDC_ISO_10646__> is the only sane way to support multi-language |
333 |
|
|
apps in an OS, as using a locale-dependent (and non-standardized) |
334 |
|
|
representation of B<wchar_t> makes it impossible to convert between |
335 |
|
|
B<wchar_t> (as used by X11 and your applications) and any other encoding |
336 |
|
|
without implementing OS-specific-wrappers for each and every locale. There |
337 |
|
|
simply are no APIs to convert B<wchar_t> into anything except the current |
338 |
|
|
locale encoding. |
339 |
root |
1.25 |
|
340 |

|
Some applications (such as the formidable B<mlterm>) work around this |
341 |
|
|
by carrying their own replacement functions for character set handling |
342 |
|
|
with them, and either implementing OS-dependent hacks or doing multiple |
343 |
|
|
conversions (which is slow and unreliable in case the OS implements |
344 |
|
|
encodings slightly different than the terminal emulator). |
345 |
|
|
|
346 |

|
The rxvt-unicode author insists that the right way to fix this is in the |

356 |
|
|
|
357 |
|
|
rxvt-unicode should compile and run out of the box on cygwin, using |
358 |
|
|
the X11 libraries that come with cygwin. libW11 emulation is no |
359 |
|
|
longer supported (and makes no sense, either, as it only supported a |
360 |
|
|
single font). I recommend starting the X-server in C<-multiwindow> or |
361 |
|
|
C<-rootless> mode instead, which will result in similar look&feel as the |
362 |
|
|
old libW11 emulation. |
363 |
|
|
|
364 |
|
|
At the time of this writing, cygwin didn't seem to support any multi-byte |
365 |
root |
1.57 |
encodings (you might try C<LC_CTYPE=C-UTF-8>), so you are likely limited |
366 |
|
|
to 8-bit encodings. |

|
|
=item Is there an option to switch encodings? |
371 |
|
|
|
372 |
|
|
Unlike some other terminals, rxvt-unicode has no encoding switch, and no |
373 |
|
|
specific "utf-8" mode, such as xterm. In fact, it doesn't even know about |
374 |
|
|
UTF-8 or any other encodings with respect to terminal I/O. |
375 |
|
|
|
376 |
|
|
The reasons is that there exists a perfectly fine mechanism for selecting |
377 |
|
|
the encoding, doing I/O and (most important) communicating this to all |
378 |
root |
1.44 |
applications so everybody agrees on character properties such as width |
379 |
|
|
and code number. This mechanism is the I<locale>. Applications not using |
380 |
|
|
that info will have problems (for example, C<xterm> gets the width of |
381 |
|
|
characters wrong as it uses it's own, locale-independent table under all |
382 |
|
|
locales). |
383 |
root |
1.25 |
|
384 |
|
|
Rxvt-unicode uses the C<LC_CTYPE> locale category to select encoding. All |
385 |
|
|
programs doing the same (that is, most) will automatically agree in the |
386 |
|
|
interpretation of characters. |
387 |
|
|
|
388 |
|
|
Unfortunately, there is no system-independent way to select locales, nor |
389 |
|
|
is there a standard on how locale specifiers will look like. |
390 |
|
|
|
391 |
|
|
On most systems, the content of the C<LC_CTYPE> environment variable |
392 |
|
|
contains an arbitrary string which corresponds to an already-installed |
393 |
|
|
locale. Common names for locales are C<en_US.UTF-8>, C<de_DE.ISO-8859-15>, |
394 |
|
|
C<ja_JP.EUC-JP>, i.e. C<language_country.encoding>, but other forms |
395 |
|
|
(i.e. C<de> or C<german>) are also common. |
396 |
|
|
|
397 |
|
|
Rxvt-unicode ignores all other locale categories, and except for |
398 |
|
|
the encoding, ignores country or language-specific settings, |
399 |
root |
1.44 |
i.e. C<de_DE.UTF-8> and C<ja_JP.UTF-8> are the normally same to |
400 |
|
|
rxvt-unicode. |
401 |
root |
1.25 |

If you want to use a specific encoding you have to make sure you start |

rxvt-unicode with the correct C<LC_CTYPE> category. |

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

one locale (e.g. C<de_DE.UTF-8>) but some programs don't support it |
416 |
|
|
(e.g. UTF-8). For example, I use this script to start C<xjdic>, which |
417 |

first switches to a locale supported by xjdic and back later: |

Yes, using an escape sequence. Try something like this, which has the same |

This is useful if you e.g. work primarily with japanese (and prefer a |
435 |

436 |
|
|
japanese fonts would only be in your way. |

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

|
455 |

Now you can start your terminal with C<LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8> and still |
458 |
|
|
use your input method. Please note, however, that you will not be able to |
459 |
|
|
input characters outside C<EUC-JP> in a normal way then, as your input |

463 |
|

Unfortunately, this is unavoidable, as the XIM protocol is racy by |
465 |
|
|
design. Applications can avoid some crashes at the expense of memory |
466 |
|
|
leaks, and Input Methods can avoid some crashes by careful ordering at |
467 |
|
|
exit time. B<kinput2> (and derived input methods) generally succeeds, |
468 |
|
|
while B<SCIM> (or similar input methods) fails. In the end, however, |
469 |
|
|
crashes cannot be completely avoided even if both sides cooperate. |
470 |

Rxvt-unicode tries to obey the rule of not charging you for something you |
476 |
root |
1.25 |
don't use. One thing you should try is to configure out all settings that |
477 |
|
|
you don't need, for example, Xft support is a resource hog by design, |
478 |
|
|
when used. Compiling it out ensures that no Xft font will be loaded |
479 |
|
|
accidentally when rxvt-unicode tries to find a font for your characters. |
480 |
|
|
|
481 |
|
|
Also, many people (me included) like large windows and even larger |
482 |
|
|
scrollback buffers: Without C<--enable-unicode3>, rxvt-unicode will use |
483 |
|
|
6 bytes per screen cell. For a 160x?? window this amounts to almost a |
484 |
|
|
kilobyte per line. A scrollback buffer of 10000 lines will then (if full) |
485 |
|
|
use 10 Megabytes of memory. With C<--enable-unicode3> it gets worse, as |

rxvt-unicode then uses 8 bytes per screen cell. |

Yes, the most obvious way to speed it up is to avoid Xft entirely, as |
491 |
|
|
it is simply slow. If you still want Xft fonts you might try to disable |
492 |
root |
1.60 |
antialiasing (by appending C<:antialias=false>), which saves lots of |

|
=item Rxvt-unicode doesn't seem to anti-alias its fonts, what is wrong? |
496 |

|
|
497 |
|
|
Rxvt-unicode will use whatever you specify as a font. If it needs to |
498 |
|
|
fall back to it's default font search list it will prefer X11 core |
499 |
|
|
fonts, because they are small and fast, and then use Xft fonts. It has |
500 |
|
|
antialiasing disabled for most of them, because the author thinks they |
501 |
|
|
look best that way. |
502 |
|
|
|
503 |

If you want antialiasing, you have to specify the fonts manually. |

=item What's with the strange Backspace/Delete key behaviour? |
584 |
|
|
|
585 |
|
|
Assuming that the physical Backspace key corresponds to the |
586 |
|
|
BackSpace keysym (not likely for Linux ... see the following |
587 |
|
|
question) there are two standard values that can be used for |
588 |
|
|
Backspace: C<^H> and C<^?>. |
589 |
|
|
|
590 |
|
|
Historically, either value is correct, but rxvt-unicode adopts the debian |
591 |
|
|
policy of using C<^?> when unsure, because it's the one only only correct |
592 |
|
|
choice :). |
593 |
|
|
|
594 |
|
|
Rxvt-unicode tries to inherit the current stty settings and uses the value |
595 |
|
|
of `erase' to guess the value for backspace. If rxvt-unicode wasn't |
596 |
|
|
started from a terminal (say, from a menu or by remote shell), then the |
597 |
|
|
system value of `erase', which corresponds to CERASE in <termios.h>, will |
598 |
|
|
be used (which may not be the same as your stty setting). |
599 |
|
|
|
600 |
|
|
For starting a new rxvt-unicode: |
601 |
|
|
|
602 |
|
|
# use Backspace = ^H |
603 |
|
|
$ stty erase ^H |
604 |
|
|
$ @@RXVT_NAME@@ |
605 |
|
|
|
606 |
|
|
# use Backspace = ^? |
607 |
|
|
$ stty erase ^? |
608 |
|
|
$ @@RXVT_NAME@@ |
609 |
|
|
|
610 |
root |
1.44 |
Toggle with C<ESC [ 36 h> / C<ESC [ 36 l> as documented in @@RXVT_NAME@@(7). |
611 |
root |
1.25 |
|
612 |
|
|
For an existing rxvt-unicode: |
613 |
|
|
|
614 |
|
|
# use Backspace = ^H |
615 |
|
|
$ stty erase ^H |
616 |
|
|
$ echo -n "^[[36h" |
617 |
|
|
|
618 |
|
|
# use Backspace = ^? |
619 |
|
|
$ stty erase ^? |
620 |
|
|
$ echo -n "^[[36l" |
621 |
|
|
|
622 |
|
|
This helps satisfy some of the Backspace discrepancies that occur, but |
623 |
|
|
if you use Backspace = C<^H>, make sure that the termcap/terminfo value |
624 |
|
|
properly reflects that. |
625 |
|
|
|
626 |
|
|
The Delete key is a another casualty of the ill-defined Backspace problem. |
627 |
|
|
To avoid confusion between the Backspace and Delete keys, the Delete |
628 |
|
|
key has been assigned an escape sequence to match the vt100 for Execute |
629 |
root |
1.44 |
(C<ESC [ 3 ~>) and is in the supplied termcap/terminfo. |
630 |
root |
1.25 |
|
631 |
|
|
Some other Backspace problems: |
632 |
|
|
|
633 |
|
|
some editors use termcap/terminfo, |
634 |
|
|
some editors (vim I'm told) expect Backspace = ^H, |
635 |
|
|
GNU Emacs (and Emacs-like editors) use ^H for help. |
636 |
|
|
|
637 |
|
|
Perhaps someday this will all be resolved in a consistent manner. |

=item I'm using keyboard model XXX that has extra Prior/Next/Insert keys. |
671 |
|
|
How do I make use of them? For example, the Sun Keyboard type 4 |
672 |
|
|
has the following mappings that rxvt-unicode doesn't recognize. |
673 |
|
|
|
674 |

|
KP_Insert == Insert |
675 |

F22 == Print |

Rather than have rxvt-unicode try to accommodate all the various possible |
682 |
|
|
keyboard mappings, it is better to use `xmodmap' to remap the keys as |
683 |
|
|
required for your particular machine. |

I need this to decide about setting colors etc. |
687 |

|
|
688 |
|
|
rxvt and rxvt-unicode always export the variable "COLORTERM", so you can |
689 |
|
|
check and see if that is set. Note that several programs, JED, slrn, |
690 |
|
|
Midnight Commander automatically check this variable to decide whether or |
691 |
|
|
not to use color. |

|

695 |

If you've compiled rxvt-unicode with DISPLAY_IS_IP and have enabled |
696 |
|
|
insecure mode then it is possible to use the following shell script |
697 |
|
|
snippets to correctly set the display. If your version of rxvt-unicode |
698 |
|
|
wasn't also compiled with ESCZ_ANSWER (as assumed in these snippets) then |
699 |
|
|
the COLORTERM variable can be used to distinguish rxvt-unicode from a |
700 |
|
|
regular xterm. |

1546 |
|
|
linked-list of other such menuBars. |
1547 |
|
|
|
1548 |
|
|
The menuBar acts as a parent for the various drop-down menus, which in |
1549 |
|
|
turn, may have labels, separator lines, menuItems and subMenus. |
1550 |
|
|
|
1551 |
|
|
The menuItems are the useful bits: you can use them to mimic keyboard |
1552 |
|
|
input or even to send text or escape sequences back to rxvt. |
1553 |
|
|
|
1554 |
|
|
The menuBar syntax is intended to provide a simple yet robust method of |
1555 |
|
|
constructing and manipulating menus and navigating through the |
1556 |
|
|
menuBars. |
1557 |
|
|
|
1558 |
|
|
The first step is to use the tag B<< [menu:I<name>] >> which creates |
1559 |
|
|
the menuBar called I<name> and allows access. You may now or menus, |
1560 |
|
|
subMenus, and menuItems. Finally, use the tag B<[done]> to set the |
1561 |
|
|
menuBar access as B<readonly> to prevent accidental corruption of the |
1562 |
|
|
menus. To re-access the current menuBar for alterations, use the tag |
1563 |
|
|
B<[menu]>, make the alterations and then use B<[done]> |

1574 |
|
|
is created, it is called I<name> (max of 15 chars) and the current |
1575 |
|
|
menuBar is pushed onto the stack |

following format specifiers: |

[menu:+I<name> >> and continuing until B<[done]> is encountered. |
1600 |
|
|
|
1601 |
|
|
Blank and comment lines (starting with B<#>) are ignored. Actually, |
1602 |
|
|
since any invalid menu commands are also ignored, almost anything could |
1603 |
|
|
be construed as a comment line, but this may be tightened up in the |
1604 |

General hint: if you get compile errors, then likely your configuration |

root |

hasn't been tested well. Either try with C<--enable-everything> or use |
2191 |
|
|
the F<./reconf> script as a base for experiments. F<./reconf> is used by |
2192 |
|
|
myself, so it should generally be a working config. Of course, you should |
2193 |
|
|
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 |

don't pay for them. |

Compile in support for additional codeset (encoding) groups (C<eu>, C<vn> |
2225 |
|
|
are always compiled in, which includes most 8-bit character sets). These |
2226 |
|
|
codeset tables are used for driving X11 core fonts, they are not required |
2227 |
|
|
for Xft fonts, although having them compiled in lets rxvt-unicode choose |
2228 |
|
|
replacement fonts more intelligently. Compiling them in will make your |
2229 |
|
|
binary bigger (all of together cost about 700kB), but it doesn't increase |
2230 |
|

Add support for XIM (X Input Method) protocol. This allows using |
2246 |
|
|
alternative input methods (e.g. kinput2) and will also correctly |
2247 |

1.6 |
|
2251 |
|
|
Enable direct support for displaying unicode codepoints above |
2252 |
|
|
65535 (the basic multilingual page). This increases storage |
2253 |
|
|
requirements per character from 2 to 4 bytes. X11 fonts do not yet |
2254 |
|
|
support these extra characters, but Xft does. |
2255 |
|
|
|
2256 |
|
|
Please note that rxvt-unicode can store unicode code points >65535 |
2257 |
|
|
even without this flag, but the number of such characters is |
2258 |
|
|
limited to a view thousand (shared with combining characters, |
2259 |
|
|
see next switch), and right now rxvt-unicode cannot display them |
2260 |

Enable automatic composition of combining characters into |
2265 |
|
|
composite characters. This is required for proper viewing of text |
2266 |
|
|
where accents are encoded as seperate unicode characters. This is |
2267 |
|
|
done by using precomposited characters when available or creating |
2268 |
|
|
new pseudo-characters when no precomposed form exists. |
2269 |
|
|
|
2270 |
root |
1.46 |
Without --enable-unicode3, the number of additional precomposed characters |
2271 |
|
|
is rather limited (2048, if this is full, rxvt-unicode will use the |
2272 |
root |
1.6 |
private use area, extending the number of combinations to 8448). With |
2273 |
root |
1.46 |
--enable-unicode3, no practical limit exists. |
2274 |
|
|
|
2275 |
