		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

1675
1676	=head2 Overview of menuBar operation
1677
1678	For the menuBar XTerm escape sequence C<ESC ] 703 ; Pt ST>, the syntax
1679	of C<Pt> can be used for a variety of tasks:
1680
1681	At the top level is the current menuBar which is a member of a circular
1682	linked-list of other such menuBars.
1683
1684	The menuBar acts as a parent for the various drop-down menus, which in
1685	turn, may have labels, separator lines, menuItems and subMenus.
1686
1687	The menuItems are the useful bits: you can use them to mimic keyboard
1688	input or even to send text or escape sequences back to rxvt.
1689
1690	The menuBar syntax is intended to provide a simple yet robust method of
1691	constructing and manipulating menus and navigating through the
1692	menuBars.
1693
1694	The first step is to use the tag B<< [menu:I<name>] >> which creates
1695	the menuBar called I<name> and allows access. You may now or menus,
1696	subMenus, and menuItems. Finally, use the tag B<[done]> to set the
1697	menuBar access as B<readonly> to prevent accidental corruption of the
1698	menus. To re-access the current menuBar for alterations, use the tag
1699	B<[menu]>, make the alterations and then use B<[done]>

1736
1737	Blank and comment lines (starting with B<#>) are ignored. Actually,
1738	since any invalid menu commands are also ignored, almost anything could
1739	be construed as a comment line, but this may be tightened up in the

1871	the first of which will be stripped off and the balance directed to the

1876	As a convenience for the many Emacs-type editors, I<action> may start

1908	implicitly hiding the left label (by using same name for both left and

1958	emulate the curror keys. The syntax permits each arrow to be altered
1959	individually or all four at once without re-entering their common
1960	beginning/end text. For example, to explicitly associate cursor actions
1961	with the arrows, any of the following forms could be used:
