26	=head2 The new selection selects pieces that are too big, how can I select single words?

28	If you want to select e.g. alphanumeric words, you can use the following	27	=head2 Meta, Features & Commandline Issues
29	setting:

33	If you click more than twice, the selection will be extended	31	Before sending me mail, you could go to IRC: C<irc.freenode.net>,
34	more and more.	32	channel C<#rxvt-unicode> has some rxvt-unicode enthusiasts that might be
		33	interested in learning about new and exciting problems (but not FAQs :).
35		34
36	To get a selection that is very similar to the old code, try this pattern:	35	=head3 Does it support tabs, can I have a tabbed rxvt-unicode?
37		36
38	URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ([^"&'()*,;<=>?@[\\\\]^`{|})]+)	37	Beginning with version 7.3, there is a perl extension that implements a
		38	simple tabbed terminal. It is installed by default, so any of these should
		39	give you tabs:
39		40
40	Please also note that the I<LeftClick Shift-LeftClik> combination also	41	@@URXVT_NAME@@ -pe tabbed
41	selects words like the old code.
42		42
43	=head2 I don't like the new selection/popups/hotkeys/perl, how do I change/disable it?
44
45	You can disable the perl extension completely by setting the
46	B<perl-ext-common> resource to the empty string, which also keeps
47	rxvt-unicode from initialising perl, saving memory.
48
49	If you only want to disable specific features, you first have to
50	identify which perl extension is responsible. For this, read the section
51	B<PREPACKAGED EXTENSIONS> in the @@RXVT_NAME@@perl(3) manpage. For
52	example, to disable the B<selection-popup> and B<option-popup>, specify
53	this B<perl-ext-common> resource:
54
55	URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,-selection-popup,-option-popup
56
57	This will keep the default extensions, but disable the two popup
58	extensions. Some extensions can also be configured, for example,
59	scrollback search mode is triggered by B<M-s>. You can move it to any
60	other combination either by setting the B<searchable-scrollback> resource:
61
62	URxvt.searchable-scrollback: CM-s
63
64	=head2 The cursor moves when selecting text in the current input line, how do I switch this off?
65
66	See next entry.
67
68	=head2 During rlogin/ssh/telnet/etc. sessions, clicking near the cursor outputs strange escape sequences, how do I fix this?
69
70	These are caused by the C<readline> perl extension. Under normal
71	circumstances, it will move your cursor around when you click into the
72	line that contains it. It tries hard not to do this at the wrong moment,
73	but when running a program that doesn't parse cursor movements or in some
74	cases during rlogin sessions, it fails to detect this properly.
75
76	You can permamently switch this feature off by disabling the C<readline>
77	extension:
78
79	URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,-readline	43	URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,tabbed
80		44
81	=head2 Why doesn't rxvt-unicode read my resources?	45	It will also work fine with tabbing functionality of many window managers
		46	or similar tabbing programs, and its embedding-features allow it to be
		47	embedded into other programs, as witnessed by F<doc/rxvt-tabbed> or
		48	the upcoming C<Gtk2::URxvt> perl module, which features a tabbed urxvt
		49	(murxvt) terminal as an example embedding application.
82		50
83	Well, why, indeed? It does, in a way very similar to other X	51	=head3 How do I know which rxvt-unicode version I'm using?
84	applications. Most importantly, this means that if you or your OS loads
85	resources into the X display (the right way to do it), rxvt-unicode will
86	ignore any resource files in your home directory. It will only read
87	F<$HOME/.Xdefaults> when no resources are attached to the display.
88		52
89	If you have or use an F<$HOME/.Xresources> file, chances are that	53	The version number is displayed with the usage (-h). Also the escape

		56	daemon.
92		57
93	Also consider the form resources have to use:	58	=head3 Rxvt-unicode uses gobs of memory, how can I reduce that?
94		59
95	URxvt.resource: value	60	Rxvt-unicode tries to obey the rule of not charging you for something you
		61	don't use. One thing you should try is to configure out all settings that
		62	you don't need, for example, Xft support is a resource hog by design,
		63	when used. Compiling it out ensures that no Xft font will be loaded
		64	accidentally when rxvt-unicode tries to find a font for your characters.
96		65
97	If you want to use another form (there are lots of different ways of	66	Also, many people (me included) like large windows and even larger

		69	kilobyte per line. A scrollback buffer of 10000 lines will then (if full)
		70	use 10 Megabytes of memory. With C<--enable-unicode3> it gets worse, as
		71	rxvt-unicode then uses 8 bytes per screen cell.
100		72
101	=head2 I can't get transparency working, what am I doing wrong?	73	=head3 How can I start @@URXVT_NAME@@d in a race-free way?
102		74
103	First of all, transparency isn't officially supported in rxvt-unicode, so	75	Try C<@@URXVT_NAME@@d -f -o>, which tells @@URXVT_NAME@@d to open the

110		79
111	1. Use inheritPixmap:	80	If you want to start @@URXVT_NAME@@d automatically whenever you run

224	=head2 Does it support tabs, can I have a tabbed rxvt-unicode?
225		209
226	Beginning with version 7.3, there is a perl extension that implements a	210	=head2 Rendering, Font & Look and Feel Issues
227	simple tabbed terminal. It is installed by default, so any of these should
228	give you tabs:
229		211
230	@@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe tabbed	212	=head3 I can't get transparency working, what am I doing wrong?
231		213
		214	First of all, please address all transparency related issues to Sasha Vasko at
		215	sasha@aftercode.net and do not bug the author about it. Also, if you can't
		216	get it working consider it a rite of passage: ... and you failed.
		217
		218	Here are four ways to get transparency. B<Do> read the manpage and option
		219	descriptions for the programs mentioned and rxvt-unicode. Really, do it!
		220
		221	1. Use transparent mode:
		222
		223	Esetroot wallpaper.jpg
		224	@@URXVT_NAME@@ -tr -tint red -sh 40
		225
		226	That works. If you think it doesn't, you lack transparency and tinting
		227	support, or you are unable to read.
		228
		229	2. Use a simple pixmap and emulate pseudo-transparency. This enables you
		230	to use effects other than tinting and shading: Just shade/tint/whatever
		231	your picture with gimp or any other tool:
		232
		233	convert wallpaper.jpg -blur 20x20 -modulate 30 background.jpg
		234	@@URXVT_NAME@@ -pixmap "background.jpg;:root"
		235
		236	That works. If you think it doesn't, you lack AfterImage support, or you
		237	are unable to read.
		238
		239	3. Use an ARGB visual:
		240
		241	@@URXVT_NAME@@ -depth 32 -fg grey90 -bg rgba:0000/0000/4444/cccc
		242
		243	This requires XFT support, and the support of your X-server. If that
		244	doesn't work for you, blame Xorg and Keith Packard. ARGB visuals aren't
		245	there yet, no matter what they claim. Rxvt-Unicode contains the necessary
		246	bugfixes and workarounds for Xft and Xlib to make it work, but that
		247	doesn't mean that your WM has the required kludges in place.
		248
		249	4. Use xcompmgr and let it do the job:
		250
		251	xprop -frame -f _NET_WM_WINDOW_OPACITY 32c \
		252	-set _NET_WM_WINDOW_OPACITY 0xc0000000
		253
		254	Then click on a window you want to make transparent. Replace C<0xc0000000>
		255	by other values to change the degree of opacity. If it doesn't work and
		256	your server crashes, you got to keep the pieces.
		257
		258	=head3 Why does rxvt-unicode sometimes leave pixel droppings?
		259
		260	Most fonts were not designed for terminal use, which means that character
		261	size varies a lot. A font that is otherwise fine for terminal use might
		262	contain some characters that are simply too wide. Rxvt-unicode will avoid
		263	these characters. For characters that are just "a bit" too wide a special
		264	"careful" rendering mode is used that redraws adjacent characters.
		265
		266	All of this requires that fonts do not lie about character sizes,
		267	however: Xft fonts often draw glyphs larger than their acclaimed bounding
		268	box, and rxvt-unicode has no way of detecting this (the correct way is to
		269	ask for the character bounding box, which unfortunately is wrong in these
		270	cases).
		271
		272	It's not clear (to me at least), whether this is a bug in Xft, freetype,
		273	or the respective font. If you encounter this problem you might try using
		274	the C<-lsp> option to give the font more height. If that doesn't work, you
		275	might be forced to use a different font.
		276
		277	All of this is not a problem when using X11 core fonts, as their bounding
		278	box data is correct.
		279
		280	=head3 How can I keep rxvt-unicode from using reverse video so much?
		281
		282	First of all, make sure you are running with the right terminal settings
		283	(C<TERM=rxvt-unicode>), which will get rid of most of these effects. Then
		284	make sure you have specified colours for italic and bold, as otherwise
		285	rxvt-unicode might use reverse video to simulate the effect:
		286
		287	URxvt.colorBD: white
		288	URxvt.colorIT: green
		289
		290	=head3 Some programs assume totally weird colours (red instead of blue), how can I fix that?
		291
		292	For some unexplainable reason, some rare programs assume a very weird
		293	colour palette when confronted with a terminal with more than the standard
		294	8 colours (rxvt-unicode supports 88). The right fix is, of course, to fix
		295	these programs not to assume non-ISO colours without very good reasons.
		296
		297	In the meantime, you can either edit your C<rxvt-unicode> terminfo
		298	definition to only claim 8 colour support or use C<TERM=rxvt>, which will
		299	fix colours but keep you from using other rxvt-unicode features.
		300
		301	=head3 Can I switch the fonts at runtime?
		302
		303	Yes, using an escape sequence. Try something like this, which has the same
		304	effect as using the C<-fn> switch, and takes effect immediately:
		305
		306	printf '\33]50;%s\007' "9x15bold,xft:Kochi Gothic"
		307
		308	This is useful if you e.g. work primarily with japanese (and prefer a
		309	japanese font), but you have to switch to chinese temporarily, where
		310	japanese fonts would only be in your way.
		311
		312	You can think of this as a kind of manual ISO-2022 switching.
		313
		314	=head3 Why do italic characters look as if clipped?
		315
		316	Many fonts have difficulties with italic characters and hinting. For
		317	example, the otherwise very nicely hinted font C<xft:Bitstream Vera Sans
		318	Mono> completely fails in its italic face. A workaround might be to
		319	enable freetype autohinting, i.e. like this:
		320
		321	URxvt.italicFont: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:italic:autohint=true
		322	URxvt.boldItalicFont: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:bold:italic:autohint=true
		323
		324	=head3 Can I speed up Xft rendering somehow?
		325
		326	Yes, the most obvious way to speed it up is to avoid Xft entirely, as
		327	it is simply slow. If you still want Xft fonts you might try to disable
		328	antialiasing (by appending C<:antialias=false>), which saves lots of
		329	memory and also speeds up rendering considerably.
		330
		331	=head3 Rxvt-unicode doesn't seem to anti-alias its fonts, what is wrong?
		332
		333	Rxvt-unicode will use whatever you specify as a font. If it needs to
		334	fall back to its default font search list it will prefer X11 core
		335	fonts, because they are small and fast, and then use Xft fonts. It has
		336	antialiasing disabled for most of them, because the author thinks they
		337	look best that way.
		338
		339	If you want antialiasing, you have to specify the fonts manually.
		340
		341	=head3 What's with this bold/blink stuff?
		342
		343	If no bold colour is set via C<colorBD:>, bold will invert text using the
		344	standard foreground colour.
		345
		346	For the standard background colour, blinking will actually make
		347	the text blink when compiled with C<--enable-text-blink>. Without
		348	C<--enable-text-blink>, the blink attribute will be ignored.
		349
		350	On ANSI colours, bold/blink attributes are used to set high-intensity
		351	foreground/background colors.
		352
		353	color0-7 are the low-intensity colors.
		354
		355	color8-15 are the corresponding high-intensity colors.
		356
		357	=head3 I don't like the screen colors. How do I change them?
		358
		359	You can change the screen colors at run-time using F<~/.Xdefaults>
		360	resources (or as long-options).
		361
		362	Here are values that are supposed to resemble a VGA screen,
		363	including the murky brown that passes for low-intensity yellow:
		364
		365	URxvt.color0: #000000
		366	URxvt.color1: #A80000
		367	URxvt.color2: #00A800
		368	URxvt.color3: #A8A800
		369	URxvt.color4: #0000A8
		370	URxvt.color5: #A800A8
		371	URxvt.color6: #00A8A8
		372	URxvt.color7: #A8A8A8
		373
		374	URxvt.color8: #000054
		375	URxvt.color9: #FF0054
		376	URxvt.color10: #00FF54
		377	URxvt.color11: #FFFF54
		378	URxvt.color12: #0000FF
		379	URxvt.color13: #FF00FF
		380	URxvt.color14: #00FFFF
		381	URxvt.color15: #FFFFFF
		382
		383	And here is a more complete set of non-standard colors.
		384
		385	URxvt.cursorColor: #dc74d1
		386	URxvt.pointerColor: #dc74d1
		387	URxvt.background: #0e0e0e

		405
		406	=head3 Why do some characters look so much different than others?
		407
		408	See next entry.
		409
		410	=head3 How does rxvt-unicode choose fonts?
		411
		412	Most fonts do not contain the full range of Unicode, which is
		413	fine. Chances are that the font you (or the admin/package maintainer of
		414	your system/os) have specified does not cover all the characters you want
		415	to display.
		416
		417	B<rxvt-unicode> makes a best-effort try at finding a replacement
		418	font. Often the result is fine, but sometimes the chosen font looks
		419	bad/ugly/wrong. Some fonts have totally strange characters that don't
		420	resemble the correct glyph at all, and rxvt-unicode lacks the artificial
		421	intelligence to detect that a specific glyph is wrong: it has to believe
		422	the font that the characters it claims to contain indeed look correct.
		423
		424	In that case, select a font of your taste and add it to the font list,
		425	e.g.:
		426
		427	@@URXVT_NAME@@ -fn basefont,font2,font3...
		428
		429	When rxvt-unicode sees a character, it will first look at the base
		430	font. If the base font does not contain the character, it will go to the
		431	next font, and so on. Specifying your own fonts will also speed up this
		432	search and use less resources within rxvt-unicode and the X-server.
		433
		434	The only limitation is that none of the fonts may be larger than the base
		435	font, as the base font defines the terminal character cell size, which
		436	must be the same due to the way terminals work.
		437
		438	=head3 Why do some chinese characters look so different than others?
		439
		440	This is because there is a difference between script and language --
		441	rxvt-unicode does not know which language the text that is output is,
		442	as it only knows the unicode character codes. If rxvt-unicode first
		443	sees a japanese/chinese character, it might choose a japanese font for
		444	display. Subsequent japanese characters will use that font. Now, many
		445	chinese characters aren't represented in japanese fonts, so when the first
		446	non-japanese character comes up, rxvt-unicode will look for a chinese font
		447	-- unfortunately at this point, it will still use the japanese font for
		448	chinese characters that are also in the japanese font.
		449
		450	The workaround is easy: just tag a chinese font at the end of your font
		451	list (see the previous question). The key is to view the font list as
		452	a preference list: If you expect more japanese, list a japanese font
		453	first. If you expect more chinese, put a chinese font first.
		454
		455	In the future it might be possible to switch language preferences at
		456	runtime (the internal data structure has no problem with using different
		457	fonts for the same character at the same time, but no interface for this
		458	has been designed yet).
		459
		460	Until then, you might get away with switching fonts at runtime (see L<Can
		461	I switch the fonts at runtime?> later in this document).
		462
		463	=head3 How can I make mplayer display video correctly?
		464
		465	We are working on it, in the meantime, as a workaround, use something like:

		471
		472	=head3 The new selection selects pieces that are too big, how can I select single words?
		473
		474	If you want to select e.g. alphanumeric words, you can use the following
		475	setting:
		476
		477	URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ([[:word:]]+)
		478
		479	If you click more than twice, the selection will be extended
		480	more and more.
		481
		482	To get a selection that is very similar to the old code, try this pattern:
		483
		484	URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ([^"&'()*,;<=>?@[\\\\]^`{|})]+)
		485
		486	Please also note that the I<LeftClick Shift-LeftClik> combination also
		487	selects words like the old code.
		488
		489	=head3 I don't like the new selection/popups/hotkeys/perl, how do I change/disable it?
		490
		491	You can disable the perl extension completely by setting the
		492	B<perl-ext-common> resource to the empty string, which also keeps
		493	rxvt-unicode from initialising perl, saving memory.
		494
		495	If you only want to disable specific features, you first have to
		496	identify which perl extension is responsible. For this, read the section
		497	B<PREPACKAGED EXTENSIONS> in the @@URXVT_NAME@@perl(3) manpage. For
		498	example, to disable the B<selection-popup> and B<option-popup>, specify
		499	this B<perl-ext-common> resource:
		500
		501	URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,-selection-popup,-option-popup
		502
		503	This will keep the default extensions, but disable the two popup
		504	extensions. Some extensions can also be configured, for example,
		505	scrollback search mode is triggered by B<M-s>. You can move it to any
		506	other combination either by setting the B<searchable-scrollback> resource:
		507
		508	URxvt.searchable-scrollback: CM-s
		509
		510	=head3 The cursor moves when selecting text in the current input line, how do I switch this off?
		511
		512	See next entry.
		513
		514	=head3 During rlogin/ssh/telnet/etc. sessions, clicking near the cursor outputs strange escape sequences, how do I fix this?
		515
		516	These are caused by the C<readline> perl extension. Under normal
		517	circumstances, it will move your cursor around when you click into the
		518	line that contains it. It tries hard not to do this at the wrong moment,
		519	but when running a program that doesn't parse cursor movements or in some
		520	cases during rlogin sessions, it fails to detect this properly.
		521
		522	You can permanently switch this feature off by disabling the C<readline>
		523	extension:
		524
232	URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,tabbed	525	URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,-readline
233		526
234	It will also work fine with tabbing functionality of many window managers	527	=head3 My numerical keypad acts weird and generates differing output?
235	or similar tabbing programs, and its embedding-features allow it to be
236	embedded into other programs, as witnessed by F<doc/rxvt-tabbed> or
237	the upcoming C<Gtk2::URxvt> perl module, which features a tabbed urxvt
238	(murxvt) terminal as an example embedding application.

240	=head2 How do I know which rxvt-unicode version I'm using?	529	Some Debian GNUL/Linux users seem to have this problem, although no

		531	by the wrong C<TERM> setting, although the details of whether and how
		532	this can happen are unknown, as C<TERM=rxvt> should offer a compatible

247	=head2 I am using Debian GNU/Linux and have a problem...	538	The most common causes for this are that either your locale is not set
		539	correctly, or you specified a B<preeditStyle> that is not supported by
		540	your input method. For example, if you specified B<OverTheSpot> and
		541	your input method (e.g. the default input method handling Compose keys)
		542	does not support this (for instance because it is not visual), then
		543	rxvt-unicode will continue without an input method.
248		544
249	The Debian GNU/Linux package of rxvt-unicode in sarge contains large	545	In this case either do not specify a B<preeditStyle> or specify more than

254	the problem. If you cannot, chances are that the problems are specific to
255	Debian GNU/Linux, in which case it should be reported via the Debian Bug
256	Tracking System (use C<reportbug> to report the bug).

		709	As the documentation says: plain is the preferred scrollbar for the

		721
		722	Some colours. Not sure which ones are being used or even non-defaults, but
		723	these are in my .Xdefaults. Most notably, they set foreground/background
		724	to light gray/black, and also make sure that the colour 7 matches the
		725	default foreground colour.
		726

		770
		771	I wrote rxvt-unicode to be able to specify fonts exactly. So don't be
		772	overwhelmed. A special note: the C<9x15bold> mentioned above is actually
		773	the version from XFree-3.3, as XFree-4 replaced it by a totally different
		774	font (different glyphs for C<;> and many other harmless characters),
		775	while the second font is actually the C<9x15bold> from XFree4/XOrg. The
		776	bold version has less chars than the medium version, so I use it for rare
		777	characters, too. When editing sources with vim, I use italic for comments
		778	and other stuff, which looks quite good with Bitstream Vera anti-aliased.
		779
		780	Terminus is a quite bad font (many very wrong glyphs), but for most of my
		781	purposes, it works, and gives a different look, as my normal (Non-bold)
		782	font is already bold, and I want to see a difference between bold and
		783	normal fonts.
		784
		785	Please note that I used the C<urxvt> instance name and not the C<URxvt>
		786	class name. Thats because I use different configs for different purposes,
		787	for example, my IRC window is started with C<-name IRC>, and uses these
		788	defaults:
		789
		790	IRC*title: IRC
		791	IRC*geometry: 87x12+535+542
		792	IRC*saveLines: 0
		793	IRC*mapAlert: true

		798	IRC*keysym.M-C-2: command:\033]710;9x15bold\007\033]711;9x15bold\007
		799
		800	C<Alt-Shift-1> and C<Alt-Shift-2> switch between two different font
		801	sizes. C<suxuseuro> allows me to keep an eye (and actually read)
		802	stuff while keeping a very small window. If somebody pastes something
		803	complicated (e.g. japanese), I temporarily switch to a larger font.
		804
		805	The above is all in my C<.Xdefaults> (I don't use C<.Xresources> nor
		806	C<xrdb>). I also have some resources in a separate C<.Xdefaults-hostname>
		807	file for different hosts, for example, on ym main desktop, I use:
		808
		809	URxvt.keysym.C-M-q: command:\033[3;5;5t
		810	URxvt.keysym.C-M-y: command:\033[3;5;606t

		812	URxvt.keysym.C-M-c: command:\033[3;1605;606t
		813	URxvt.keysym.C-M-p: perl:test
		814
		815	The first for keysym definitions allow me to quickly bring some windows
		816	in the layout I like most. Ion users might start laughing but will stop
		817	immediately when I tell them that I use my own Fvwm2 module for much the
		818	same effect as Ion provides, and I only very rarely use the above key
		819	combinations :->
		820
		821	=head3 Why doesn't rxvt-unicode read my resources?
		822
		823	Well, why, indeed? It does, in a way very similar to other X
		824	applications. Most importantly, this means that if you or your OS loads
		825	resources into the X display (the right way to do it), rxvt-unicode will
		826	ignore any resource files in your home directory. It will only read
		827	F<$HOME/.Xdefaults> when no resources are attached to the display.
		828
		829	If you have or use an F<$HOME/.Xresources> file, chances are that
		830	resources are loaded into your X-server. In this case, you have to
		831	re-login after every change (or run F<xrdb -merge $HOME/.Xresources>).
		832
		833	Also consider the form resources have to use:
		834
		835	URxvt.resource: value
		836
		837	If you want to use another form (there are lots of different ways of
		838	specifying resources), make sure you understand whether and why it
		839	works. If unsure, use the form above.

469	e.g.:
470
471	@@RXVT_NAME@@ -fn basefont,font2,font3...
472
473	When rxvt-unicode sees a character, it will first look at the base
474	font. If the base font does not contain the character, it will go to the
475	next font, and so on. Specifying your own fonts will also speed up this
476	search and use less resources within rxvt-unicode and the X-server.
477
478	The only limitation is that none of the fonts may be larger than the base
479	font, as the base font defines the terminal character cell size, which
480	must be the same due to the way terminals work.
481
482	=head2 Why do some chinese characters look so different than others?
483
484	This is because there is a difference between script and language --
485	rxvt-unicode does not know which language the text that is output is,
486	as it only knows the unicode character codes. If rxvt-unicode first
487	sees a japanese/chinese character, it might choose a japanese font for
488	display. Subsequent japanese characters will use that font. Now, many
489	chinese characters aren't represented in japanese fonts, so when the first
490	non-japanese character comes up, rxvt-unicode will look for a chinese font
491	-- unfortunately at this point, it will still use the japanese font for
492	chinese characters that are also in the japanese font.
493
494	The workaround is easy: just tag a chinese font at the end of your font
495	list (see the previous question). The key is to view the font list as
496	a preference list: If you expect more japanese, list a japanese font
497	first. If you expect more chinese, put a chinese font first.
498
499	In the future it might be possible to switch language preferences at
500	runtime (the internal data structure has no problem with using different
501	fonts for the same character at the same time, but no interface for this
502	has been designed yet).
503
504	Until then, you might get away with switching fonts at runtime (see L<Can
505	I switch the fonts at runtime?> later in this document).
506
507	=head2 Why does rxvt-unicode sometimes leave pixel droppings?
508
509	Most fonts were not designed for terminal use, which means that character
510	size varies a lot. A font that is otherwise fine for terminal use might
511	contain some characters that are simply too wide. Rxvt-unicode will avoid
512	these characters. For characters that are just "a bit" too wide a special
513	"careful" rendering mode is used that redraws adjacent characters.
514
515	All of this requires that fonts do not lie about character sizes,
516	however: Xft fonts often draw glyphs larger than their acclaimed bounding
517	box, and rxvt-unicode has no way of detecting this (the correct way is to
518	ask for the character bounding box, which unfortunately is wrong in these

538		1029
539	The most common causes for this are that either your locale is not set	1030	Yes, using an escape sequence. Try something like this, which sets

543	does not support this (for instance because it is not visual), then
544	rxvt-unicode will continue without an input method.

546	In this case either do not specify a B<preeditStyle> or specify more than	1033	printf '\33]701;%s\007' ja_JP.SJIS

		1105	=head2 Operating Systems / Package Maintaining
		1106
		1107	=head3 I am using Debian GNU/Linux and have a problem...
		1108
		1109	The Debian GNU/Linux package of rxvt-unicode in sarge contains large
		1110	patches that considerably change the behaviour of rxvt-unicode (but
		1111	unfortunately this notice has been removed). Before reporting a bug to
		1112	the original rxvt-unicode author please download and install the genuine
		1113	version (L<http://software.schmorp.de#rxvt-unicode>) and try to reproduce
		1114	the problem. If you cannot, chances are that the problems are specific to
		1115	Debian GNU/Linux, in which case it should be reported via the Debian Bug
		1116	Tracking System (use C<reportbug> to report the bug).
		1117
		1118	For other problems that also affect the Debian package, you can and
		1119	probably should use the Debian BTS, too, because, after all, it's also a
		1120	bug in the Debian version and it serves as a reminder for other users that
		1121	might encounter the same issue.
		1122
		1123	=head3 I am maintaining rxvt-unicode for distribution/OS XXX, any recommendation?
		1124
		1125	You should build one binary with the default options. F<configure>
		1126	now enables most useful options, and the trend goes to making them
		1127	runtime-switchable, too, so there is usually no drawback to enabling them,
		1128	except higher disk and possibly memory usage. The perl interpreter should
		1129	be enabled, as important functionality (menus, selection, likely more in
		1130	the future) depends on it.
		1131
		1132	You should not overwrite the C<perl-ext-common> snd C<perl-ext> resources
		1133	system-wide (except maybe with C<defaults>). This will result in useful
		1134	behaviour. If your distribution aims at low memory, add an empty
		1135	C<perl-ext-common> resource to the app-defaults file. This will keep the
		1136	perl interpreter disabled until the user enables it.
		1137
		1138	If you can/want build more binaries, I recommend building a minimal
		1139	one with C<--disable-everything> (very useful) and a maximal one with
		1140	C<--enable-everything> (less useful, it will be very big due to a lot of
		1141	encodings built-in that increase download times and are rarely used).
		1142
		1143	=head3 I need to make it setuid/setgid to support utmp/ptys on my OS, is this safe?
		1144
		1145	It should be, starting with release 7.1. You are encouraged to properly
		1146	install urxvt with privileges necessary for your OS now.
		1147
		1148	When rxvt-unicode detects that it runs setuid or setgid, it will fork
		1149	into a helper process for privileged operations (pty handling on some
		1150	systems, utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling on others) and drop privileges
		1151	immediately. This is much safer than most other terminals that keep
		1152	privileges while running (but is more relevant to urxvt, as it contains
		1153	things as perl interpreters, which might be "helpful" to attackers).
		1154
		1155	This forking is done as the very first within main(), which is very early
		1156	and reduces possible bugs to initialisation code run before main(), or
		1157	things like the dynamic loader of your system, which should result in very
		1158	little risk.

627		1204
628	=head2 How does rxvt-unicode determine the encoding to use?	1205	=head3 Character widths are not correct.
629		1206
630	See next entry.	1207	urxvt uses the system wcwidth function to know the information about
		1208	the width of characters, so on systems with incorrect locale data you
		1209	will likely get bad results. Two notorious examples are Solaris 9,
		1210	where single-width characters like U+2514 are reported as double-width,
		1211	and Darwin 8, where combining chars are reported having width 1.
631		1212
632	=head2 Is there an option to switch encodings?	1213	The solution is to upgrade your system or switch to a better one. A
		1214	possibly working workaround is to use a wcwidth implementation like
633		1215
634	Unlike some other terminals, rxvt-unicode has no encoding switch, and no	1216	http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/wcwidth.c
635	specific "utf-8" mode, such as xterm. In fact, it doesn't even know about
636	UTF-8 or any other encodings with respect to terminal I/O.
637		1217
638	The reasons is that there exists a perfectly fine mechanism for selecting
639	the encoding, doing I/O and (most important) communicating this to all
640	applications so everybody agrees on character properties such as width
641	and code number. This mechanism is the I<locale>. Applications not using
642	that info will have problems (for example, C<xterm> gets the width of
643	characters wrong as it uses it's own, locale-independent table under all
644	locales).
645
646	Rxvt-unicode uses the C<LC_CTYPE> locale category to select encoding. All
647	programs doing the same (that is, most) will automatically agree in the
648	interpretation of characters.
649
650	Unfortunately, there is no system-independent way to select locales, nor
651	is there a standard on how locale specifiers will look like.
652
653	On most systems, the content of the C<LC_CTYPE> environment variable
654	contains an arbitrary string which corresponds to an already-installed
655	locale. Common names for locales are C<en_US.UTF-8>, C<de_DE.ISO-8859-15>,
656	C<ja_JP.EUC-JP>, i.e. C<language_country.encoding>, but other forms
657	(i.e. C<de> or C<german>) are also common.
658
659	Rxvt-unicode ignores all other locale categories, and except for
660	the encoding, ignores country or language-specific settings,
661	i.e. C<de_DE.UTF-8> and C<ja_JP.UTF-8> are the normally same to
662	rxvt-unicode.
663
664	If you want to use a specific encoding you have to make sure you start
665	rxvt-unicode with the correct C<LC_CTYPE> category.
666
667	=head2 Can I switch locales at runtime?
668
669	Yes, using an escape sequence. Try something like this, which sets
670	rxvt-unicode's idea of C<LC_CTYPE>.
671
672	printf '\e]701;%s\007' ja_JP.SJIS
673
674	See also the previous answer.
675
676	Sometimes this capability is rather handy when you want to work in
677	one locale (e.g. C<de_DE.UTF-8>) but some programs don't support it
678	(e.g. UTF-8). For example, I use this script to start C<xjdic>, which
679	first switches to a locale supported by xjdic and back later:
680
681	printf '\e]701;%s\007' ja_JP.SJIS
682	xjdic -js
683	printf '\e]701;%s\007' de_DE.UTF-8
684
685	You can also use xterm's C<luit> program, which usually works fine, except
686	for some locales where character width differs between program- and
687	rxvt-unicode-locales.
688
689	=head2 Can I switch the fonts at runtime?
690
691	Yes, using an escape sequence. Try something like this, which has the same
692	effect as using the C<-fn> switch, and takes effect immediately:
693
694	printf '\e]50;%s\007' "9x15bold,xft:Kochi Gothic"
695
696	This is useful if you e.g. work primarily with japanese (and prefer a
697	japanese font), but you have to switch to chinese temporarily, where
698	japanese fonts would only be in your way.
699
700	You can think of this as a kind of manual ISO-2022 switching.
701
702	=head2 Why do italic characters look as if clipped?
703
704	Many fonts have difficulties with italic characters and hinting. For
705	example, the otherwise very nicely hinted font C<xft:Bitstream Vera Sans
706	Mono> completely fails in it's italic face. A workaround might be to
707	enable freetype autohinting, i.e. like this:
708
709	URxvt.italicFont: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:italic:autohint=true
710	URxvt.boldItalicFont: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:bold:italic:autohint=true
711
712	=head2 My input method wants <some encoding> but I want UTF-8, what can I do?
713
714	You can specify separate locales for the input method and the rest of the
715	terminal, using the resource C<imlocale>:
716
717	URxvt.imlocale: ja_JP.EUC-JP
718
719	Now you can start your terminal with C<LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8> and still
720	use your input method. Please note, however, that you will not be able to
721	input characters outside C<EUC-JP> in a normal way then, as your input
722	method limits you.
723
724	=head2 Rxvt-unicode crashes when the X Input Method changes or exits.
725
726	Unfortunately, this is unavoidable, as the XIM protocol is racy by
727	design. Applications can avoid some crashes at the expense of memory
728	leaks, and Input Methods can avoid some crashes by careful ordering at
729	exit time. B<kinput2> (and derived input methods) generally succeeds,
730	while B<SCIM> (or similar input methods) fails. In the end, however,
731	crashes cannot be completely avoided even if both sides cooperate.
732
733	So the only workaround is not to kill your Input Method Servers.
734
735	=head2 Rxvt-unicode uses gobs of memory, how can I reduce that?
736
737	Rxvt-unicode tries to obey the rule of not charging you for something you
738	don't use. One thing you should try is to configure out all settings that
739	you don't need, for example, Xft support is a resource hog by design,
740	when used. Compiling it out ensures that no Xft font will be loaded
741	accidentally when rxvt-unicode tries to find a font for your characters.
742
743	Also, many people (me included) like large windows and even larger
744	scrollback buffers: Without C<--enable-unicode3>, rxvt-unicode will use
745	6 bytes per screen cell. For a 160x?? window this amounts to almost a
746	kilobyte per line. A scrollback buffer of 10000 lines will then (if full)
747	use 10 Megabytes of memory. With C<--enable-unicode3> it gets worse, as
748	rxvt-unicode then uses 8 bytes per screen cell.
749
750	=head2 Can I speed up Xft rendering somehow?
751
752	Yes, the most obvious way to speed it up is to avoid Xft entirely, as
753	it is simply slow. If you still want Xft fonts you might try to disable
754	antialiasing (by appending C<:antialias=false>), which saves lots of
755	memory and also speeds up rendering considerably.
756
757	=head2 Rxvt-unicode doesn't seem to anti-alias its fonts, what is wrong?
758
759	Rxvt-unicode will use whatever you specify as a font. If it needs to
760	fall back to it's default font search list it will prefer X11 core
761	fonts, because they are small and fast, and then use Xft fonts. It has
762	antialiasing disabled for most of them, because the author thinks they
763	look best that way.
764
765	If you want antialiasing, you have to specify the fonts manually.
766
767	=head2 Mouse cut/paste suddenly no longer works.
768
769	Make sure that mouse reporting is actually turned off since killing
770	some editors prematurely may leave the mouse in mouse report mode. I've
771	heard that tcsh may use mouse reporting unless it otherwise specified. A
772	quick check is to see if cut/paste works when the Alt or Shift keys are
773	depressed.
774
775	=head2 What's with this bold/blink stuff?
776
777	If no bold colour is set via C<colorBD:>, bold will invert text using the
778	standard foreground colour.
779
780	For the standard background colour, blinking will actually make the
781	text blink when compiled with C<--enable-blinking>. with standard
782	colours. Without C<--enable-blinking>, the blink attribute will be
783	ignored.
784
785	On ANSI colours, bold/blink attributes are used to set high-intensity
786	foreground/background colors.
787
788	color0-7 are the low-intensity colors.
789
790	color8-15 are the corresponding high-intensity colors.
791
792	=head2 I don't like the screen colors. How do I change them?
793
794	You can change the screen colors at run-time using F<~/.Xdefaults>
795	resources (or as long-options).

797	Here are values that are supposed to resemble a VGA screen,
798	including the murky brown that passes for low-intensity yellow:

840	=head2 How can I start @@RXVT_NAME@@d in a race-free way?
841
842	Try C<@@RXVT_NAME@@d -f -o>, which tells @@RXVT_NAME@@d to open the
843	display, create the listening socket and then fork.
844
845	=head2 What's with the strange Backspace/Delete key behaviour?
846
847	Assuming that the physical Backspace key corresponds to the
848	BackSpace keysym (not likely for Linux ... see the following
849	question) there are two standard values that can be used for
850	Backspace: C<^H> and C<^?>.
851
852	Historically, either value is correct, but rxvt-unicode adopts the debian
853	policy of using C<^?> when unsure, because it's the one only only correct
854	choice :).
855
856	Rxvt-unicode tries to inherit the current stty settings and uses the value
857	of `erase' to guess the value for backspace. If rxvt-unicode wasn't
858	started from a terminal (say, from a menu or by remote shell), then the
859	system value of `erase', which corresponds to CERASE in <termios.h>, will
860	be used (which may not be the same as your stty setting).
861
862	For starting a new rxvt-unicode:
863
864	# use Backspace = ^H
865	$ stty erase ^H
866	$ @@RXVT_NAME@@
867
868	# use Backspace = ^?
869	$ stty erase ^?
870	$ @@RXVT_NAME@@
871
872	Toggle with C<ESC [ 36 h> / C<ESC [ 36 l>.
873
874	For an existing rxvt-unicode:
875
876	# use Backspace = ^H
877	$ stty erase ^H
878	$ echo -n "^[[36h"
879
880	# use Backspace = ^?
881	$ stty erase ^?
882	$ echo -n "^[[36l"
883
884	This helps satisfy some of the Backspace discrepancies that occur, but
885	if you use Backspace = C<^H>, make sure that the termcap/terminfo value
886	properly reflects that.
887
888	The Delete key is a another casualty of the ill-defined Backspace problem.
889	To avoid confusion between the Backspace and Delete keys, the Delete
890	key has been assigned an escape sequence to match the vt100 for Execute
891	(C<ESC [ 3 ~>) and is in the supplied termcap/terminfo.
892
893	Some other Backspace problems:
894
895	some editors use termcap/terminfo,
896	some editors (vim I'm told) expect Backspace = ^H,
897	GNU Emacs (and Emacs-like editors) use ^H for help.
898
899	Perhaps someday this will all be resolved in a consistent manner.
900
901	=head2 I don't like the key-bindings. How do I change them?
902
903	There are some compile-time selections available via configure. Unless
904	you have run "configure" with the C<--disable-resources> option you can
905	use the `keysym' resource to alter the keystrings associated with keysyms.
906
907	Here's an example for a URxvt session started using C<@@RXVT_NAME@@ -name URxvt>
908
909	URxvt.keysym.Home: \033[1~
910	URxvt.keysym.End: \033[4~
911	URxvt.keysym.C-apostrophe: \033<C-'>
912	URxvt.keysym.C-slash: \033<C-/>
913	URxvt.keysym.C-semicolon: \033<C-;>
914	URxvt.keysym.C-grave: \033<C-`>
915	URxvt.keysym.C-comma: \033<C-,>
916	URxvt.keysym.C-period: \033<C-.>
917	URxvt.keysym.C-0x60: \033<C-`>
918	URxvt.keysym.C-Tab: \033<C-Tab>
919	URxvt.keysym.C-Return: \033<C-Return>
920	URxvt.keysym.S-Return: \033<S-Return>
921	URxvt.keysym.S-space: \033<S-Space>
922	URxvt.keysym.M-Up: \033<M-Up>
923	URxvt.keysym.M-Down: \033<M-Down>
924	URxvt.keysym.M-Left: \033<M-Left>
925	URxvt.keysym.M-Right: \033<M-Right>
926	URxvt.keysym.M-C-0: list \033<M-C- 0123456789 >
927	URxvt.keysym.M-C-a: list \033<M-C- abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz >
928	URxvt.keysym.F12: command:\033]701;zh_CN.GBK\007
929
930	See some more examples in the documentation for the B<keysym> resource.
931
932	=head2 I'm using keyboard model XXX that has extra Prior/Next/Insert keys. How do I make use of them? For example, the Sun Keyboard type 4 has the following mappings that rxvt-unicode doesn't recognize.
933
934	KP_Insert == Insert
935	F22 == Print
936	F27 == Home
937	F29 == Prior
938	F33 == End
939	F35 == Next
940
941	Rather than have rxvt-unicode try to accommodate all the various possible
942	keyboard mappings, it is better to use `xmodmap' to remap the keys as
943	required for your particular machine.
944
945	=head2 How do I distinguish wether I'm running rxvt-unicode or a regular xterm? I need this to decide about setting colors etc.
946
947	rxvt and rxvt-unicode always export the variable "COLORTERM", so you can
948	check and see if that is set. Note that several programs, JED, slrn,
949	Midnight Commander automatically check this variable to decide whether or
950	not to use color.
951
952	=head2 How do I set the correct, full IP address for the DISPLAY variable?
953
954	If you've compiled rxvt-unicode with DISPLAY_IS_IP and have enabled
955	insecure mode then it is possible to use the following shell script
956	snippets to correctly set the display. If your version of rxvt-unicode
957	wasn't also compiled with ESCZ_ANSWER (as assumed in these snippets) then
958	the COLORTERM variable can be used to distinguish rxvt-unicode from a
959	regular xterm.
960
961	Courtesy of Chuck Blake <cblake@BBN.COM> with the following shell script
962	snippets:
963
964	# Bourne/Korn/POSIX family of shells:
965	[ ${TERM:-foo} = foo ] && TERM=xterm # assume an xterm if we don't know
966	if [ ${TERM:-foo} = xterm ]; then
967	stty -icanon -echo min 0 time 15 # see if enhanced rxvt or not
968	echo -n '^[Z'
969	read term_id
970	stty icanon echo
971	if [ ""${term_id} = '^[[?1;2C' -a ${DISPLAY:-foo} = foo ]; then
972	echo -n '^[[7n' # query the rxvt we are in for the DISPLAY string
973	read DISPLAY # set it in our local shell
974	fi
975	fi
976
977	=head2 How do I compile the manual pages for myself?
978
979	You need to have a recent version of perl installed as F</usr/bin/perl>,
980	one that comes with F<pod2man>, F<pod2text> and F<pod2html>. Then go to
981	the doc subdirectory and enter C<make alldoc>.
982
983	=head2 My question isn't answered here, can I ask a human?
984
985	Before sending me mail, you could go to IRC: C<irc.freenode.net>,
986	channel C<#rxvt-unicode> has some rxvt-unicode enthusiasts that might be
987	interested in learning about new and exciting problems (but not FAQs :).
