29 | =item How do I know which rxvt-unicode version I'm using? |
|
|
30 | |
|
|
31 | The version number is displayed with the usage (-h). Also the escape |
|
|
32 | sequence C<ESC [ 8 n> sets the window title to the version number. |

|
|
34 | =item I am using Debian GNU/Linux and have a problem... |
|
|
35 | |
|
|
36 | The Debian GNU/Linux package of rxvt-unicode contains large patches that |
|
|
37 | considerably change the behaviour of rxvt-unicode. Before reporting a |
|
|
38 | bug to the original rxvt-unicode author please download and install the |
|
|
39 | genuine version (L<http://software.schmorp.de#rxvt-unicode>) and try to |
|
|
40 | reproduce the problem. If you cannot, chances are that the problems are |
|
|
41 | specific to Debian GNU/Linux, in which case it should be reported via the |
|
|
42 | Debian Bug Tracking System (use C<reportbug> to report the bug). |
|
|
43 | |
|
|
44 | For other problems that also affect the Debian package, you can and |
|
|
45 | probably should use the Debian BTS, too, because, after all, it's also a |
|
|
46 | bug in the Debian version and it serves as a reminder for other users that |
|
|
47 | might encounter the same issue. |
|
|
48 | |
|
|
49 | =item When I log-in to another system it tells me about missing terminfo data? |
|
|
50 | |
|
|
51 | The terminal description used by rxvt-unicode is not as widely available |
|
|
52 | as that for xterm, or even rxvt (for which the same problem often arises). |
|
|
53 | |
|
|
54 | The correct solution for this problem is to install the terminfo, this can |
|
|
55 | be done like this (with ncurses' infocmp): |
|
|
56 | |
|
|
57 | REMOTE=remotesystem.domain |
|
|
58 | infocmp rxvt-unicode | ssh $REMOTE "cat >/tmp/ti && tic /tmp/ti" |
|
|
59 | |
|
|
60 | ... or by installing rxvt-unicode normally on the remote system, |
|
|
61 | |
|
|
62 | If you cannot or do not want to do this, then you can simply set |
|
|
63 | C<TERM=rxvt> or even C<TERM=xterm>, and live with the small number of |
|
|
64 | problems arising, which includes wrong keymapping, less and different |
|
|
65 | colours and some refresh errors in fullscreen applications. It's a nice |
|
|
66 | quick-and-dirty workaround for rare cases, though. |
|
|
67 | |
|
|
68 | If you always want to do this (and are fine with the consequences) you |
|
|
69 | can either recompile rxvt-unicode with the desired TERM value or use a |
|
|
70 | resource to set it: |
|
|
71 | |
|
|
72 | URxvt.termName: rxvt |
|
|
73 | |
|
|
74 | If you don't plan to use B<rxvt> (quite common...) you could also replace |
|
|
75 | the rxvt terminfo file with the rxvt-unicode one. |
|
|
76 | |
|
|
77 | =item C<bash>'s readline does not work correctly under @@RXVT_NAME@@. |
|
|
78 | |
|
|
79 | =item I need a termcap file entry. |
|
|
80 | |
|
|
81 | One reason you might want this is that some distributions or operating |
|
|
82 | systems still compile some programs using the long-obsoleted termcap |
|
|
83 | library (Fedora Core's bash is one example) and rely on a termcap entry |
|
|
84 | for C<rxvt-unicode>. |
|
|
85 | |
|
|
86 | You could use rxvt's termcap entry with resonable results in many cases. |
|
|
87 | You can also create a termcap entry by using terminfo's infocmp program |
|
|
88 | like this: |
|
|
89 | |
|
|
90 | infocmp -C rxvt-unicode |
|
|
91 | |
|
|
92 | Or you could use this termcap entry, generated by the command above: |
|
|

|
114 | =item Why does C<ls> no longer have coloured output? |
|
|
115 | |
|
|
116 | The C<ls> in the GNU coreutils unfortunately doesn't use terminfo to |
|
|
117 | decide wether a terminal has colour, but uses it's own configuration |
|
|
118 | file. Needless to say, C<rxvt-unicode> is not in it's default file (among |
|
|
119 | with most other terminals supporting colour). Either add: |
|
|
120 | |
|
|
121 | TERM rxvt-unicode |
|
|
122 | |
|
|
123 | to C</etc/DIR_COLORS> or simply add: |
|
|
124 | |
|
|
125 | alias ls='ls --color=auto' |
|
|
126 | |
|
|
127 | to your C<.profile> or C<.bashrc>. |
|
|
128 | |
|
|
129 | =item Why doesn't vim/emacs etc. use the 88 colour mode? |
|
|
130 | |
|
|
131 | =item Why doesn't vim/emacs etc. make use of italic? |
|
|
132 | |
|
|
133 | =item Why are the secondary screen-related options not working properly? |
|
|
134 | |
|
|
135 | Make sure you are using C<TERM=rxvt-unicode>. Some pre-packaged |
|
|
136 | distributions (most notably Debian GNU/Linux) break rxvt-unicode |
|
|
137 | by setting C<TERM> to C<rxvt>, which doesn't have these extra |
|
|
138 | features. Unfortunately, some of these (most notably, again, Debian |
|
|
139 | GNU/Linux) furthermore fail to even install the C<rxvt-unicode> terminfo |
|
|
140 | file, so you will need to install it on your own (See the question B<When |
|
|
141 | I log-in to another system it tells me about missing terminfo data?> on |
|
|
142 | how to do this). |
|
|
143 | |
|
|
144 | =item My numerical keypad acts weird and generates differing output? |
|
|
145 | |
|
|
146 | Some Debian GNUL/Linux users seem to have this problem, although no |
|
|
147 | specific details were reported so far. It is possible that this is caused |
|
|
148 | by the wrong C<TERM> setting, although the details of wether and how |
|
|
149 | this can happen are unknown, as C<TERM=rxvt> should offer a compatible |
|
|
150 | keymap. See the answer to the previous question, and please report if that |
|
|
151 | helped. |
|
|
152 | |
|
|
153 | =item Rxvt-unicode does not seem to understand the selected encoding? |
|
|
154 | |
|
|
155 | =item Unicode does not seem to work? |
|
|
156 | |
|
|
157 | If you encounter strange problems like typing an accented character but |
|
|
158 | getting two unrelated other characters or similar, or if program output is |
|
|
159 | subtly garbled, then you should check your locale settings. |
|
|
160 | |
|
|
161 | Rxvt-unicode must be started with the same C<LC_CTYPE> setting as the |
|
|
162 | programs. Often rxvt-unicode is started in the C<C> locale, while the |
|
|
163 | login script running within the rxvt-unicode window changes the locale to |
|
|
164 | something else, e.g. C<en_GB.UTF-8>. Needless to say, this is not going to work. |
|
|
165 | |
|
|
166 | The best thing is to fix your startup environment, as you will likely run |
|
|
167 | into other problems. If nothing works you can try this in your .profile. |
|
|
168 | |
|
|
169 | printf '\e]701;%s\007' "$LC_CTYPE" |
|
|
170 | |
|
|
171 | If this doesn't work, then maybe you use a C<LC_CTYPE> specification not |
|
|
172 | supported on your systems. Some systems have a C<locale> command which |
|
|
173 | displays this (also, C<perl -e0> can be used to check locale settings, as |
|
|
174 | it will complain loudly if it cannot set the locale). If it displays something |
|
|
175 | like: |
|
|
176 | |
|
|
177 | locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: ... |
|
|
178 | |
|
|
179 | Then the locale you specified is not supported on your system. |
|
|
180 | |
|
|
181 | If nothing works and you are sure that everything is set correctly then |
|
|
182 | you will need to remember a little known fact: Some programs just don't |
|
|
183 | support locales :( |
|
|
184 | |
|
|
185 | =item Why do some characters look so much different than others? |
|
|
186 | |
|
|
187 | =item How does rxvt-unicode choose fonts? |
|
|
188 | |
|
|
189 | Most fonts do not contain the full range of Unicode, which is |
|
|
190 | fine. Chances are that the font you (or the admin/package maintainer of |
|
|
191 | your system/os) have specified does not cover all the characters you want |
|
|
192 | to display. |
|
|
193 | |
|
|
194 | B<rxvt-unicode> makes a best-effort try at finding a replacement |
|
|
195 | font. Often the result is fine, but sometimes the chosen font looks |
|
|
196 | bad/ugly/wrong. Some fonts have totally strange characters that don't |
|
|
197 | resemble the correct glyph at all, and rxvt-unicode lacks the artificial |
|
|
198 | intelligence to detect that a specific glyph is wrong: it has to believe |
|
|
199 | the font that the characters it claims to contain indeed look correct. |
|
|
200 | |
|
|
201 | In that case, select a font of your taste and add it to the font list, |
|
|
202 | e.g.: |
|
|
203 | |
|
|
204 | @@RXVT_NAME@@ -fn basefont,font2,font3... |
|
|
205 | |
|
|
206 | When rxvt-unicode sees a character, it will first look at the base |
|
|
207 | font. If the base font does not contain the character, it will go to the |
|
|
208 | next font, and so on. Specifying your own fonts will also speed up this |
|
|
209 | search and use less resources within rxvt-unicode and the X-server. |
|
|
210 | |
|
|
211 | The only limitation is that none of the fonts may be larger than the base |
|
|
212 | font, as the base font defines the terminal character cell size, which |
|
|
213 | must be the same due to the way terminals work. |
|
|
214 | |
|
|
215 | =item Why do some chinese characters look so different than others? |
|
|
216 | |
|
|
217 | This is because there is a difference between script and language -- |
|
|
218 | rxvt-unicode does not know which language the text that is output is, |
|
|
219 | as it only knows the unicode character codes. If rxvt-unicode first |
|
|
220 | sees a japanese/chinese character, it might choose a japanese font for |
|
|
221 | display. Subsequent japanese characters will use that font. Now, many |
|
|
222 | chinese characters aren't represented in japanese fonts, so when the first |
|
|
223 | non-japanese character comes up, rxvt-unicode will look for a chinese font |
|
|
224 | -- unfortunately at this point, it will still use the japanese font for |
|
|
225 | chinese characters that are also in the japanese font. |
|
|
226 | |
|
|
227 | The workaround is easy: just tag a chinese font at the end of your font |
|
|
228 | list (see the previous question). The key is to view the font list as |
|
|
229 | a preference list: If you expect more japanese, list a japanese font |
|
|
230 | first. If you expect more chinese, put a chinese font first. |
|
|
231 | |
|
|
232 | In the future it might be possible to switch language preferences at |
|
|
233 | runtime (the internal data structure has no problem with using different |
|
|
234 | fonts for the same character at the same time, but no interface for this |
|
|
235 | has been designed yet). |
|
|
236 | |
|
|
237 | Until then, you might get away with switching fonts at runtime (see L<Can |
|
|
238 | I switch the fonts at runtime?> later in this document). |
|
|
239 | |
|
|
240 | =item Why does rxvt-unicode sometimes leave pixel droppings? |
|
|
241 | |
|
|
242 | Most fonts were not designed for terminal use, which means that character |
|
|
243 | size varies a lot. A font that is otherwise fine for terminal use might |
|
|
244 | contain some characters that are simply too wide. Rxvt-unicode will avoid |
|
|
245 | these characters. For characters that are just "a bit" too wide a special |
|
|
246 | "careful" rendering mode is used that redraws adjacent characters. |
|
|
247 | |
|
|
248 | All of this requires that fonts do not lie about character sizes, |
|
|
249 | however: Xft fonts often draw glyphs larger than their acclaimed bounding |
|
|
250 | box, and rxvt-unicode has no way of detecting this (the correct way is to |
|
|
251 | ask for the character bounding box, which unfortunately is wrong in these |
|
|
252 | cases). |
|
|
253 | |
|
|
254 | It's not clear (to me at least), wether this is a bug in Xft, freetype, |
|
|
255 | or the respective font. If you encounter this problem you might try using |
|
|
256 | the C<-lsp> option to give the font more height. If that doesn't work, you |
|
|
257 | might be forced to use a different font. |
|
|
258 | |
|
|
259 | All of this is not a problem when using X11 core fonts, as their bounding |
|
|
260 | box data is correct. |
|
|
261 | |
|
|
262 | =item My Compose (Multi_key) key is no longer working. |
|
|
263 | |
|
|
264 | The most common causes for this are that either your locale is not set |
|
|
265 | correctly, or you specified a B<preeditStyle> that is not supported by |
|
|
266 | your input method. For example, if you specified B<OverTheSpot> and |
|
|
267 | your input method (e.g. the default input method handling Compose keys) |
|
|
268 | does not support this (for instance because it is not visual), then |
|
|
269 | rxvt-unicode will continue without an input method. |
|
|
270 | |
|
|
271 | In this case either do not specify a B<preeditStyle> or specify more than |
|
|
272 | one pre-edit style, such as B<OverTheSpot,Root,None>. |
|
|
273 | |
|
|
274 | =item I cannot type C<Ctrl-Shift-2> to get an ASCII NUL character due to ISO 14755 |
|
|
275 | |
|
|
276 | Either try C<Ctrl-2> alone (it often is mapped to ASCII NUL even on |
|
|
277 | international keyboards) or simply use ISO 14755 support to your |
|
|
278 | advantage, typing <Ctrl-Shift-0> to get a ASCII NUL. This works for other |
|
|
279 | codes, too, such as C<Ctrl-Shift-1-d> to type the default telnet escape |
|
|
280 | character and so on. |
|
|
281 | |
|
|
282 | =item How can I keep rxvt-unicode from using reverse video so much? |
|
|
283 | |
|
|
284 | First of all, make sure you are running with the right terminal settings |
|
|
285 | (C<TERM=rxvt-unicode>), which will get rid of most of these effects. Then |
|
|
286 | make sure you have specified colours for italic and bold, as otherwise |
|
|
287 | rxvt-unicode might use reverse video to simulate the effect: |
|
|
288 | |
|
|
289 | URxvt.colorBD: white |
|
|
290 | URxvt.colorIT: green |
|
|
291 | |
|
|
292 | =item Some programs assume totally weird colours (red instead of blue), how can I fix that? |
|
|
293 | |
|
|
294 | For some unexplainable reason, some rare programs assume a very weird |
|
|
295 | colour palette when confronted with a terminal with more than the standard |
|
|
296 | 8 colours (rxvt-unicode supports 88). The right fix is, of course, to fix |
|
|
297 | these programs not to assume non-ISO colours without very good reasons. |
|
|
298 | |
|
|
299 | In the meantime, you can either edit your C<rxvt-unicode> terminfo |
|
|
300 | definition to only claim 8 colour support or use C<TERM=rxvt>, which will |
|
|
301 | fix colours but keep you from using other rxvt-unicode features. |
|
|
302 | |
|
|
303 | =item I am on FreeBSD and rxvt-unicode does not seem to work at all. |
|
|
304 | |
|
|
305 | Rxvt-unicode requires the symbol C<__STDC_ISO_10646__> to be defined |
|
|
306 | in your compile environment, or an implementation that implements it, |
|
|
307 | wether it defines the symbol or not. C<__STDC_ISO_10646__> requires that |
|
|
308 | B<wchar_t> is represented as unicode. |
|
|
309 | |
|
|
310 | As you might have guessed, FreeBSD does neither define this symobl nor |
|
|
311 | does it support it. Instead, it uses it's own internal representation of |
|
|
312 | B<wchar_t>. This is, of course, completely fine with respect to standards. |
|
|
313 | |
|
|
314 | However, C<__STDC_ISO_10646__> is the only sane way to support |
|
|
315 | multi-language apps in an OS, as using a locale-dependent (and |
|
|
316 | non-standardized) representation of B<wchar_t> makes it impossible to |
|
|
317 | convert between B<wchar_t> (as used by X11 and your applications) and any |
|
|
318 | other encoding without implementing OS-specific-wrappers for each and |
|
|
319 | every locale. There simply are no APIs to convert B<wchar_t> into anything |
|
|
320 | except the current locale encoding. |
|
|
321 | |
|
|
322 | Some applications (such as the formidable B<mlterm>) work around this |
|
|
323 | by carrying their own replacement functions for character set handling |
|
|
324 | with them, and either implementing OS-dependent hacks or doing multiple |
|
|
325 | conversions (which is slow and unreliable in case the OS implements |
|
|
326 | encodings slightly different than the terminal emulator). |
|
|
327 | |
|
|
328 | The rxvt-unicode author insists that the right way to fix this is in the |
|
|
329 | system libraries once and for all, instead of forcing every app to carry |
|
|
330 | complete replacements for them :) |
|
|
331 | |
|
|
332 | =item How does rxvt-unicode determine the encoding to use? |
|
|
333 | |
|
|
334 | =item Is there an option to switch encodings? |
|
|
335 | |
|
|
336 | Unlike some other terminals, rxvt-unicode has no encoding switch, and no |
|
|
337 | specific "utf-8" mode, such as xterm. In fact, it doesn't even know about |
|
|
338 | UTF-8 or any other encodings with respect to terminal I/O. |
|
|
339 | |
|
|
340 | The reasons is that there exists a perfectly fine mechanism for selecting |
|
|
341 | the encoding, doing I/O and (most important) communicating this to all |
|
|
342 | applications so everybody agrees on character properties such as width |
|
|
343 | and code number. This mechanism is the I<locale>. Applications not using |
|
|
344 | that info will have problems (for example, C<xterm> gets the width of |
|
|
345 | characters wrong as it uses it's own, locale-independent table under all |
|
|
346 | locales). |
|
|
347 | |
|
|
348 | Rxvt-unicode uses the C<LC_CTYPE> locale category to select encoding. All |
|
|
349 | programs doing the same (that is, most) will automatically agree in the |
|
|
350 | interpretation of characters. |
|
|
351 | |
|
|
352 | Unfortunately, there is no system-independent way to select locales, nor |
|
|
353 | is there a standard on how locale specifiers will look like. |
|
|
354 | |
|
|
355 | On most systems, the content of the C<LC_CTYPE> environment variable |
|
|
356 | contains an arbitrary string which corresponds to an already-installed |
|
|
357 | locale. Common names for locales are C<en_US.UTF-8>, C<de_DE.ISO-8859-15>, |
|
|
358 | C<ja_JP.EUC-JP>, i.e. C<language_country.encoding>, but other forms |
|
|
359 | (i.e. C<de> or C<german>) are also common. |
|
|
360 | |
|
|
361 | Rxvt-unicode ignores all other locale categories, and except for |
|
|
362 | the encoding, ignores country or language-specific settings, |
|
|
363 | i.e. C<de_DE.UTF-8> and C<ja_JP.UTF-8> are the normally same to |
|
|
364 | rxvt-unicode. |
|
|
365 | |
|
|
366 | If you want to use a specific encoding you have to make sure you start |
|
|
367 | rxvt-unicode with the correct C<LC_CTYPE> category. |
|
|
368 | |
|
|
369 | =item Can I switch locales at runtime? |
|
|
370 | |
|
|
371 | Yes, using an escape sequence. Try something like this, which sets |
|
|
372 | rxvt-unicode's idea of C<LC_CTYPE>. |
|
|
373 | |
|
|
374 | printf '\e]701;%s\007' ja_JP.SJIS |
|
|
375 | |
|
|
376 | See also the previous answer. |
|
|
377 | |
|
|
378 | Sometimes this capability is rather handy when you want to work in |
|
|
379 | one locale (e.g. C<de_DE.UTF-8>) but some programs don't support it |
|
|
380 | (e.g. UTF-8). For example, I use this script to start C<xjdic>, which |
|
|
381 | first switches to a locale supported by xjdic and back later: |
|
|
382 | |
|
|
383 | printf '\e]701;%s\007' ja_JP.SJIS |
|
|
384 | xjdic -js |
|
|
385 | printf '\e]701;%s\007' de_DE.UTF-8 |
|
|
386 | |
|
|
387 | You can also use xterm's C<luit> program, which usually works fine, except |
|
|
388 | for some locales where character width differs between program- and |
|
|
389 | rxvt-unicode-locales. |
|
|
390 | |
|
|
391 | =item Can I switch the fonts at runtime? |
|
|
392 | |
|
|
393 | Yes, using an escape sequence. Try something like this, which has the same |
|
|
394 | effect as using the C<-fn> switch, and takes effect immediately: |
|
|
395 | |
|
|
396 | printf '\e]50;%s\007' "9x15bold,xft:Kochi Gothic" |
|
|
397 | |
|
|
398 | This is useful if you e.g. work primarily with japanese (and prefer a |
|
|
399 | japanese font), but you have to switch to chinese temporarily, where |
|
|
400 | japanese fonts would only be in your way. |
|
|
401 | |
|
|
402 | You can think of this as a kind of manual ISO-2022 switching. |
|
|
403 | |
|
|
404 | =item Why do italic characters look as if clipped? |
|
|
405 | |
|
|
406 | Many fonts have difficulties with italic characters and hinting. For |
|
|
407 | example, the otherwise very nicely hinted font C<xft:Bitstream Vera Sans |
|
|
408 | Mono> completely fails in it's italic face. A workaround might be to |
|
|
409 | enable freetype autohinting, i.e. like this: |
|
|
410 | |
|
|
411 | URxvt.italicFont: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:italic:autohint=true |
|
|
412 | URxvt.boldItalicFont: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:bold:italic:autohint=true |
|
|
413 | |
|
|
414 | =item My input method wants <some encoding> but I want UTF-8, what can I do? |
|
|
415 | |
|
|
416 | You can specify separate locales for the input method and the rest of the |
|
|
417 | terminal, using the resource C<imlocale>: |
|
|
418 | |
|
|
419 | URxvt*imlocale: ja_JP.EUC-JP |
|
|
420 | |
|
|
421 | Now you can start your terminal with C<LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8> and still |
|
|
422 | use your input method. Please note, however, that you will not be able to |
|
|
423 | input characters outside C<EUC-JP> in a normal way then, as your input |
|
|
424 | method limits you. |
|
|
425 | |
|
|
426 | =item Rxvt-unicode crashes when the X Input Method changes or exits. |
|
|
427 | |
|
|
428 | Unfortunately, this is unavoidable, as the XIM protocol is racy by |
|
|
429 | design. Applications can avoid some crashes at the expense of memory |
|
|
430 | leaks, and Input Methods can avoid some crashes by careful ordering at |
|
|
431 | exit time. B<kinput2> (and derived input methods) generally succeeds, |
|
|
432 | while B<SCIM> (or similar input methods) fails. In the end, however, |
|
|
433 | crashes cannot be completely avoided even if both sides cooperate. |
|
|
434 | |
|
|
435 | So the only workaround is not to kill your Input Method Servers. |
|
|
436 | |
|
|
437 | =item Rxvt-unicode uses gobs of memory, how can I reduce that? |
|
|
438 | |
|
|
439 | Rxvt-unicode tries to obey the rule of not charging you for something you |
|
|
440 | don't use. One thing you should try is to configure out all settings that |
|
|
441 | you don't need, for example, Xft support is a resource hog by design, |
|
|
442 | when used. Compiling it out ensures that no Xft font will be loaded |
|
|
443 | accidentally when rxvt-unicode tries to find a font for your characters. |
|
|
444 | |
|
|
445 | Also, many people (me included) like large windows and even larger |
|
|
446 | scrollback buffers: Without C<--enable-unicode3>, rxvt-unicode will use |
|
|
447 | 6 bytes per screen cell. For a 160x?? window this amounts to almost a |
|
|
448 | kilobyte per line. A scrollback buffer of 10000 lines will then (if full) |
|
|
449 | use 10 Megabytes of memory. With C<--enable-unicode3> it gets worse, as |
|
|
450 | rxvt-unicode then uses 8 bytes per screen cell. |
|
|
451 | |
|
|
452 | =item Can I speed up Xft rendering somehow? |
|
|
453 | |
|
|
454 | Yes, the most obvious way to speed it up is to avoid Xft entirely, as |
|
|
455 | it is simply slow. If you still want Xft fonts you might try to disable |
|
|
456 | antialiasing (by appending C<:antialiasing=false>), which saves lots of |
|
|
457 | memory and also speeds up rendering considerably. |
|
|
458 | |
|
|
459 | =item Rxvt-unicode doesn't seem to anti-alias its fonts, what is wrong? |
|
|
460 | |
|
|
461 | Rxvt-unicode will use whatever you specify as a font. If it needs to |
|
|
462 | fall back to it's default font search list it will prefer X11 core |
|
|
463 | fonts, because they are small and fast, and then use Xft fonts. It has |
|
|
464 | antialiasing disabled for most of them, because the author thinks they |
|
|
465 | look best that way. |
|
|
466 | |
|
|
467 | If you want antialiasing, you have to specify the fonts manually. |
|
|

469 | =item Mouse cut/paste suddenly no longer works. |
|
|
470 | |
|
|
471 | Make sure that mouse reporting is actually turned off since killing |
|
|
472 | some editors prematurely may leave the mouse in mouse report mode. I've |
|
|
473 | heard that tcsh may use mouse reporting unless it otherwise specified. A |
|
|
474 | quick check is to see if cut/paste works when the Alt or Shift keys are |
|
|
475 | depressed. See @@RXVT_NAME@@(7) |
|
|
476 | |
|
|
477 | =item What's with this bold/blink stuff? |
|
|
478 | |
|
|
479 | If no bold colour is set via C<colorBD:>, bold will invert text using the |
|
|
480 | standard foreground colour. |
|
|
481 | |
|
|
482 | For the standard background colour, blinking will actually make the |
|
|
483 | text blink when compiled with C<--enable-blinking>. with standard |
|
|
484 | colours. Without C<--enable-blinking>, the blink attribute will be |
|
|
485 | ignored. |
|
|
486 | |
|
|
487 | On ANSI colours, bold/blink attributes are used to set high-intensity |
|
|
488 | foreground/background colors. |
|
|
489 | |
|
|
490 | color0-7 are the low-intensity colors. |
|
|
491 | |
|
|
492 | color8-15 are the corresponding high-intensity colors. |

553 | =item What's with the strange Backspace/Delete key behaviour? |
|
|
554 | |
|
|
555 | Assuming that the physical Backspace key corresponds to the |
|
|
556 | BackSpace keysym (not likely for Linux ... see the following |
|
|
557 | question) there are two standard values that can be used for |
|
|
558 | Backspace: C<^H> and C<^?>. |
|
|
559 | |
|
|
560 | Historically, either value is correct, but rxvt-unicode adopts the debian |
|
|
561 | policy of using C<^?> when unsure, because it's the one only only correct |
|
|
562 | choice :). |
|
|
563 | |
|
|
564 | Rxvt-unicode tries to inherit the current stty settings and uses the value |
|
|
565 | of `erase' to guess the value for backspace. If rxvt-unicode wasn't |
|
|
566 | started from a terminal (say, from a menu or by remote shell), then the |
|
|
567 | system value of `erase', which corresponds to CERASE in <termios.h>, will |
|
|
568 | be used (which may not be the same as your stty setting). |
|
|
569 | |
|
|
570 | For starting a new rxvt-unicode: |
|
|
571 | |
|
|
572 | # use Backspace = ^H |
|
|
573 | $ stty erase ^H |
|
|
574 | $ @@RXVT_NAME@@ |
|
|
575 | |
|
|
576 | # use Backspace = ^? |
|
|
577 | $ stty erase ^? |
|
|
578 | $ @@RXVT_NAME@@ |
|
|
579 | |
|
|
580 | Toggle with C<ESC [ 36 h> / C<ESC [ 36 l> as documented in @@RXVT_NAME@@(7). |
|
|
581 | |
|
|
582 | For an existing rxvt-unicode: |
|
|
583 | |
|
|
584 | # use Backspace = ^H |
|
|
585 | $ stty erase ^H |
|
|
586 | $ echo -n "^[[36h" |
|
|
587 | |
|
|
588 | # use Backspace = ^? |
|
|
589 | $ stty erase ^? |
|
|
590 | $ echo -n "^[[36l" |
|
|
591 | |
|
|
592 | This helps satisfy some of the Backspace discrepancies that occur, but |
|
|
593 | if you use Backspace = C<^H>, make sure that the termcap/terminfo value |
|
|
594 | properly reflects that. |
|
|
595 | |
|
|
596 | The Delete key is a another casualty of the ill-defined Backspace problem. |
|
|
597 | To avoid confusion between the Backspace and Delete keys, the Delete |
|
|
598 | key has been assigned an escape sequence to match the vt100 for Execute |
|
|
599 | (C<ESC [ 3 ~>) and is in the supplied termcap/terminfo. |
|
|
600 | |
|
|
601 | Some other Backspace problems: |
|
|
602 | |
|
|
603 | some editors use termcap/terminfo, |
|
|
604 | some editors (vim I'm told) expect Backspace = ^H, |
|
|
605 | GNU Emacs (and Emacs-like editors) use ^H for help. |
|
|
606 | |
|

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

655 | =item How do I distinguish wether I'm running rxvt-unicode or a regular xterm? |
|
|
656 | I need this to decide about setting colors etc. |
|
|
657 | |
|
|
658 | rxvt and rxvt-unicode always export the variable "COLORTERM", so you can |
|
|
659 | check and see if that is set. Note that several programs, JED, slrn, |
|
|
660 | Midnight Commander automatically check this variable to decide whether or |
|
|
661 | not to use color. |

|
663 | =item How do I set the correct, full IP address for the DISPLAY variable? |
|
|
664 | |
|
|
665 | If you've compiled rxvt-unicode with DISPLAY_IS_IP and have enabled |
|
|
666 | insecure mode then it is possible to use the following shell script |
|
|
667 | snippets to correctly set the display. If your version of rxvt-unicode |
|
|
668 | wasn't also compiled with ESCZ_ANSWER (as assumed in these snippets) then |
|
|
669 | the COLORTERM variable can be used to distinguish rxvt-unicode from a |
|
|
670 | regular xterm. |

|
690 | You need to have a recent version of perl installed as F</usr/bin/perl>, |
|
|
691 | one that comes with F<pod2man>, F<pod2text> and F<pod2html>. Then go to |

|
|
2156 | |
|
|
2157 | General hint: if you get compile errors, then likely your configuration |
|
|
2158 | hasn't been tested well. Either try with --enable-everything or use the |
|
|
2159 | ./reconf script as a base for experiments. ./reconf is used by myself, |
|
|
2160 | so it should generally be a working config. Of course, you should always |
|
|
2161 | report when a combination doesn't work, so it can be fixed. Marc Lehmann |

|
|
2165 | |
|
|
2166 | =item --enable-everything |
|
|
2167 | |
|
|
2168 | Add support for all non-multichoice options listed in "./configure |
|
|
2169 | --help". Note that unlike other enable options this is order dependant. |
|
|
2170 | You can specify this and then disable options which this enables by |
|
|
2171 | I<following> this with the appropriate commands. |
|
|
2172 | |
|
|
2173 | =item --enable-xft |
|
|
2174 | |
|
|
2175 | Add support for Xft (anti-aliases, among others) fonts. Xft fonts are |
|
|
2176 | slower and require lots of memory, but as long as you don't use them, you |
|
|
2177 | don't pay for them. |
|
|
2178 | |
|
|
2179 | =item --enable-font-styles |
|
|
2180 | |
|
|
2181 | Add support for B<bold>, I<italic> and B<< I<bold italic> >> font |
|
|
2182 | styles. The fonts can be set manually or automatically. |
|
|
2183 | |
|
|
2184 | =item --with-codesets=NAME,... |
|
|
2185 | |
|
|
2186 | Compile in support for additional codeset (encoding) groups (eu, vn are |
|
|
2187 | always compiled in, which includes most 8-bit character sets). These |
|
|
2188 | codeset tables are currently only used for driving X11 core fonts, they |
|
|
2189 | are not required for Xft fonts. Compiling them in will make your binary |
|
|
2190 | bigger (together about 700kB), but it doesn't increase memory usage unless |
|
|
2191 | you use an X11 font requiring one of these encodings. |

2204 | =item --enable-xim |
|
|
2205 | |
|
|
2206 | Add support for XIM (X Input Method) protocol. This allows using |
|
|
2207 | alternative input methods (e.g. kinput2) and will also correctly |
|
|
2208 | set up the input for people using dead keys or compose keys. |
|
|
2209 | |
|
|
2210 | =item --enable-unicode3 |
|
|
2211 | |
|
|
2212 | Enable direct support for displaying unicode codepoints above |
|
|
2213 | 65535 (the basic multilingual page). This increases storage |
|
|
2214 | requirements per character from 2 to 4 bytes. X11 fonts do not yet |
|
|
2215 | support these extra characters, but Xft does. |
|
|
2216 | |
|
|
2217 | Please note that rxvt-unicode can store unicode code points >65535 |
|
|
2218 | even without this flag, but the number of such characters is |
|
|
2219 | limited to a view thousand (shared with combining characters, |
|
|
2220 | see next switch), and right now rxvt-unicode cannot display them |
|
|
2221 | (input/output and cut&paste still work, though). |
|
|
2222 | |
|
|
2223 | =item --enable-combining |
|
|
2224 | |
|
|
2225 | Enable automatic composition of combining characters into |
|
|
2226 | composite characters. This is required for proper viewing of text |
|
|
2227 | where accents are encoded as seperate unicode characters. This is |
|
|
2228 | done by using precomposited characters when available or creating |
|
|
2229 | new pseudo-characters when no precomposed form exists. |
|
|
2230 | |
|
|
2231 | Without --enable-unicode3, the number of additional precomposed characters |
|
|
2232 | is rather limited (2048, if this is full, rxvt-unicode will use the |
|
|
2233 | private use area, extending the number of combinations to 8448). With |
|
|
2234 | --enable-unicode3, no practical limit exists. |
|
|
2235 | |
|
|
2236 | This option will also enable storage (but not display) of characters |
|
|
2237 | beyond plane 0 (>65535) when --enable-unicode3 was not specified. |
|
|
2238 | |
|
|
2239 | The combining table also contains entries for arabic presentation forms, |
|
|
2240 | but these are not currently used. Bug me if you want these to be used (and |
|
|
2241 | tell me how these are to be used...). |

|
|
2341 | |
|
|
2342 | Make resources checking via XGetDefault() instead of our small |
|
|
2343 | version which only checks ~/.Xdefaults, or if that doesn't exist then |
|
|
2344 | ~/.Xresources. |
|
|
2345 | |
|
|
2346 | Please note that nowadays, things like XIM will automatically pull in and |
|
|
2347 | use the full X resource manager, so the overhead of using it might be very |
|
|
2348 | small, if nonexistant. |

|
|
2353 | various routines, overriding your system's versions which may |
|
|
2354 | have been hand-crafted in assembly or may require extra libraries |
|

2365 | have. Normally you want this, but for very small binaries you may want to |
|
|
2366 | disable this. |
|

|
|
2386 | F<doc/rxvt.1.txt>). Basic support (section 5.1) is enabled by |
|
|
2387 | C<--enable-frills>, while support for 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4 is enabled with |
|
|
2388 | this switch. |

|
|
2399 | =item --enable-slipwheeling |
|
|
2400 | |
|
|
2401 | Add support for continual scrolling (using the mouse wheel as an |
|
|
2402 | accelerator) while the control key is held down. This option |
|
|
2403 | requires --enable-mousewheel to also be specified. |
|
|
2404 | |
|
|
2405 | =item --disable-new-selection |
|
|
2406 | |
|
|
2407 | Remove support for mouse selection style like that of xterm. |
|
|
2408 | |
|
|
2409 | =item --enable-dmalloc |
|
|
2410 | |
|
|
2411 | Use Gray Watson's malloc - which is good for debugging See |
|
|
2412 | http://www.letters.com/dmalloc/ for details If you use either this or the |
|
|
2413 | next option, you may need to edit src/Makefile after compiling to point |
|
