		29	=item The new selection selects pieces that are too big, how can I select
		30	single words?
		31
		32	Yes. For example, if you want to select alphanumeric words, you can use
		33	the following resource:
		34
		35	URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ([[:word:]]+)
		36
		37	If you click more than twice, the selection will be extended
		38	more and more.
		39
		40	To get a selection that is very similar to the old code, try this pattern:
		41
		42	URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ([^"&'()*,;<=>?@[\\\\]^`{\|})]+)
		43
		44	Please also note that the I<LeftClick Shift-LeftClik> combination also
		45	selects words like the old code.
		46
		47	=item I don't like the new selection/popups/hotkeys/perl, how do I
		48	change/disable it?
		49
		50	You can disable the perl extension completely by setting the
		51	B<perl-ext-common> resource to the empty string, which also keeps
		52	rxvt-unicode from initialising perl, saving memory.
		53
		54	If you only want to disable specific features, you first have to
		55	identify which perl extension is responsible. For this, read the section
		56	B<PREPACKAGED EXTENSIONS> in the @@RXVT_NAME@@perl(3) manpage. For
		57	example, to disable the B<selection-popup> and B<option-popup>, specify
		58	this B<perl-ext-common> resource:
		59
		60	URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,-selection-popup,-option-popup
		61
		62	This will keep the default extensions, but disable the two popup
		63	extensions. Some extensions can also be configured, for example,
		64	scrollback search mode is triggered by B<M-s>. You can move it to any
		65	other combination either by setting the B<searchable-scrollback> resource:
		66
		67	URxvt.searchable-scrollback: CM-s

		176
		177	=item I am maintaining rxvt-unicode for distribution/OS XXX, any recommendation?
		178
		179	You should build one binary with the default options. F<configure>
		180	now enables most useful options, and the trend goes to making them
		181	runtime-switchable, too, so there is usually no drawback to enbaling them,
		182	except higher disk and possibly memory usage. The perl interpreter should
		183	be enabled, as important functionality (menus, selection, likely more in
		184	the future) depends on it.
		185
		186	You should not overwrite the C<perl-ext-common> snd C<perl-ext> resources
		187	system-wide (except maybe with C<defaults>). This will result in useful
		188	behaviour. If your distribution aims at low memory, add an empty
		189	C<perl-ext-common> resource to the app-defaults file. This will keep the
		190	perl interpreter disabled until the user enables it.
		191
		192	If you can/want build more binaries, I recommend building a minimal
		193	one with C<--disable-everything> (very useful) and a maximal one with
		194	C<--enable-everything> (less useful, it will be very big due to a lot of
		195	encodings built-in that increase download times and are rarely used).
		196
		197	=item I need to make it setuid/setgid to support utmp/ptys on my OS, is this safe?
		198
		199	Likely not. While I honestly try to make it secure, and am probably not
		200	bad at it, I think it is simply unreasonable to expect all of freetype
		201	+ fontconfig + xft + xlib + perl + ... + rxvt-unicode itself to all be
		202	secure. Also, rxvt-unicode disables some options when it detects that it
		203	runs setuid or setgid, which is not nice. Besides, with the embedded perl
		204	interpreter the possibility for security problems easily multiplies.
		205
		206	Elevated privileges are only required for utmp and pty operations on some
		207	systems (for example, GNU/Linux doesn't need any extra privileges for
		208	ptys, but some need it for utmp support). It is planned to mvoe this into
		209	a forked handler process, but this is not yet done.
		210
		211	So, while setuid/setgid operation is supported and not a problem on your
		212	typical single-user-no-other-logins unix desktop, always remember that
		213	its an awful lot of code, most of which isn't checked for security issues
		214	regularly.

1626
1627	=head2 Overview of menuBar operation
1628
1629	For the menuBar XTerm escape sequence C<ESC ] 703 ; Pt ST>, the syntax
1630	of C<Pt> can be used for a variety of tasks:
1631
1632	At the top level is the current menuBar which is a member of a circular
1633	linked-list of other such menuBars.
1634
1635	The menuBar acts as a parent for the various drop-down menus, which in
1636	turn, may have labels, separator lines, menuItems and subMenus.
1637
1638	The menuItems are the useful bits: you can use them to mimic keyboard
1639	input or even to send text or escape sequences back to rxvt.
1640
1641	The menuBar syntax is intended to provide a simple yet robust method of
1642	constructing and manipulating menus and navigating through the
1643	menuBars.
1644
1645	The first step is to use the tag B<< [menu:I<name>] >> which creates
1646	the menuBar called I<name> and allows access. You may now or menus,
1647	subMenus, and menuItems. Finally, use the tag B<[done]> to set the
1648	menuBar access as B<readonly> to prevent accidental corruption of the
1649	menus. To re-access the current menuBar for alterations, use the tag
1650	B<[menu]>, make the alterations and then use B<[done]>

1687
1688	Blank and comment lines (starting with B<#>) are ignored. Actually,
1689	since any invalid menu commands are also ignored, almost anything could
1690	be construed as a comment line, but this may be tightened up in the

1910	individually or all four at once without re-entering their common
1911	beginning/end text. For example, to explicitly associate cursor actions
