|
|
39 | |
|
|
40 | There are two big problems with Gentoo Linux: first, most if not all |
|
|
41 | Gentoo systems are completely broken (missing or mismatched header |
|
|
42 | files, broken compiler etc. are just the tip of the iceberg); |
|
|
43 | secondly, it should be called Gentoo GNU/Linux. |
|
|
44 | |
|
|
45 | For these reasons, it is impossible to support rxvt-unicode on |
|
|
46 | Gentoo. Problems appearing on Gentoo systems will usually simply be |
|
|
47 | ignored unless they can be reproduced on non-Gentoo systems. |

488 | =head3 Why is the cursor now blinking in emacs/vi/...? |
|
|
489 | |
|
|
490 | This is likely caused by your editor/program's use of the C<cvvis> |
|
|
491 | terminfo capability. Emacs uses it by default, as well as some versions of |
|
|
492 | vi and possibly other programs. |
|
|
493 | |
|
|
494 | In emacs, you can switch that off by adding this to your C<.emacs> file: |
|
|
495 | |
|
|
496 | (setq visible-cursor nil) |
|
|
497 | |
|
|
498 | For other programs, if they do not have an option, your have to remove the |
|
|
499 | C<cvvis> capability from the terminfo description. |
|
|
500 | |
|
|
501 | When @@URXVT_NAME@@ first added the blinking cursor option, it didn't |
|
|
502 | add a C<cvvis> capability, which served no purpose before. Version 9.21 |
|
|
503 | introduced C<cvvis> (and the ability to control blinking independent of |
|
|
504 | cursor shape) for compatibility with other terminals, which traditionally |
|
|
505 | use a blinking cursor for C<cvvis>. This also reflects the intent of |
|
|
506 | programs such as emacs, who expect C<cvvis> to enable a blinking cursor. |

|
|
1104 | |
|
|
1105 | The Debian GNU/Linux package of rxvt-unicode in sarge contains large |
|
|
1106 | patches that considerably change the behaviour of rxvt-unicode (but |
|
|
1107 | unfortunately this notice has been removed). Before reporting a bug to |
|
|
1108 | the original rxvt-unicode author please download and install the genuine |
|
|
1109 | version (L<http://software.schmorp.de#rxvt-unicode>) and try to reproduce |
|
|
1110 | the problem. If you cannot, chances are that the problems are specific to |
|
|
1111 | Debian GNU/Linux, in which case it should be reported via the Debian Bug |
|
|
1112 | Tracking System (use C<reportbug> to report the bug). |
|
|
1113 | |
|
|
1114 | For other problems that also affect the Debian package, you can and |
|
|
1115 | probably should use the Debian BTS, too, because, after all, it's also a |
|
|
1116 | bug in the Debian version and it serves as a reminder for other users that |
|
|
1117 | might encounter the same issue. |

|
|
1997 | |
|
|
1998 | This mode should be enabled I<before> actually enabling mouse reporting, |
|
|
1999 | for semi-obvious reasons. |
|
|
2000 | |
|
|
2001 | The sequences received for various modes are as follows: |
|
|
2002 | |
|
|
2003 | ESC [ M o o o !1005, !1015 (three octets) |
|
|
2004 | ESC [ M c c c 1005, !1015 (three characters) |
|
|
2005 | ESC [ Pm M 1015 (three or more numeric parameters) |
|
|
2006 | |
|
|
2007 | The first three parameters are C<code>, C<x> and C<y>. Code is the numeric |
|
|
2008 | code as for the other modes (but encoded as a decimal number, including |
|
|
2009 | the additional offset of 32, so you have to subtract 32 first), C<x> and |
|
|
2010 | C<y> are the coordinates (1|1 is the upper left corner, just as with |
|
|
2011 | cursor positioning). |
|
|
2012 | |
|
|
2013 | Example: Shift-Button-1 press at top row, column 80. |
|
|
2014 | |
|
|
2015 | ESC [ 37 ; 80 ; 1 M |
|
|
2016 | |
|
|
2017 | One can use this feature by simply enabling it and then looking for |
|
|
2018 | parameters to the C<ESC [ M> reply - if there are any, this mode is |
|
|
2019 | active, otherwise one of the old reporting styles is used. |
|
|
2020 | |
|
|
2021 | Other (to be implemented) reply sequences will use a similar encoding. |
|
|
2022 | |
|
|
2023 | In the future, more parameters might get added (pixel coordinates for |
|
|
2024 | example - anybody out there who needs this?). |
