22FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 22FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
23 The new selection selects pieces that are too big, how can I select
24 single words?
25 Yes. For example, if you want to select alphanumeric words, you can
26 use the following resource:
27
28 URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ([[:word:]]+)
29
30 If you click more than twice, the selection will be extended more
31 and more.
32
33 To get a selection that is very similar to the old code, try this
34 pattern:
35
36 URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ([^"&'()*,;<=>?@[\\\\]^`{|})]+)
37
38 Please also note that the *LeftClick Shift-LeftClik* combination
39 also selects words like the old code.
40
41 I don't like the new selection/popups/hotkeys/perl, how do I
42 change/disable it?
43 You can disable the perl extension completely by setting the
44 perl-ext-common resource to the empty string, which also keeps
45 rxvt-unicode from initialising perl, saving memory.
46
47 If you only want to disable specific features, you first have to
48 identify which perl extension is responsible. For this, read the
49 section PREPACKAGED EXTENSIONS in the rxvtperl(3) manpage. For
50 example, to disable the selection-popup and option-popup, specify
51 this perl-ext-common resource:
52
53 URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,-selection-popup,-option-popup
54
55 This will keep the default extensions, but disable the two popup
56 extensions. Some extensions can also be configured, for example,
57 scrollback search mode is triggered by M-s. You can move it to any
58 other combination either by setting the searchable-scrollback
59 resource:
60
61 URxvt.searchable-scrollback: CM-s
62
63 Isn't rxvt supposed to be small? Don't all those features bloat?
64 I often get asked about this, and I think, no, they didn't cause
65 extra bloat. If you compare a minimal rxvt and a minimal urxvt, you
66 can see that the urxvt binary is larger (due to some encoding tables
67 always being compiled in), but it actually uses less memory (RSS)
68 after startup. Even with "--disable-everything", this comparison is
69 a bit unfair, as many features unique to urxvt (locale, encoding
70 conversion, iso14755 etc.) are already in use in this mode.
71
72 text data bss drs rss filename
73 98398 1664 24 15695 1824 rxvt --disable-everything
74 188985 9048 66616 18222 1788 urxvt --disable-everything
75
76 When you "--enable-everything" (which _is_ unfair, as this involves
77 xft and full locale/XIM support which are quite bloaty inside libX11
78 and my libc), the two diverge, but not unreasnobaly so.
79
80 text data bss drs rss filename
81 163431 2152 24 20123 2060 rxvt --enable-everything
82 1035683 49680 66648 29096 3680 urxvt --enable-everything
83
84 The very large size of the text section is explained by the
85 east-asian encoding tables, which, if unused, take up disk space but
86 nothing else and can be compiled out unless you rely on X11 core
87 fonts that use those encodings. The BSS size comes from the 64k
88 emergency buffer that my c++ compiler allocates (but of course
89 doesn't use unless you are out of memory). Also, using an xft font
90 instead of a core font immediately adds a few megabytes of RSS. Xft
91 indeed is responsible for a lot of RSS even when not used.
92
93 Of course, due to every character using two or four bytes instead of
94 one, a large scrollback buffer will ultimately make rxvt-unicode use
95 more memory.
96
97 Compared to e.g. Eterm (5112k), aterm (3132k) and xterm (4680k),
98 this still fares rather well. And compared to some monsters like
99 gnome-terminal (21152k + extra 4204k in separate processes) or
100 konsole (22200k + extra 43180k in daemons that stay around after
101 exit, plus half a minute of startup time, including the hundreds of
102 warnings it spits out), it fares extremely well *g*.
103
104 Why C++, isn't that unportable/bloated/uncool?
105 Is this a question? :) It comes up very often. The simple answer is:
106 I had to write it, and C++ allowed me to write and maintain it in a
107 fraction of the time and effort (which is a scarce resource for me).
108 Put even shorter: It simply wouldn't exist without C++.
109
110 My personal stance on this is that C++ is less portable than C, but
111 in the case of rxvt-unicode this hardly matters, as its portability
112 limits are defined by things like X11, pseudo terminals, locale
113 support and unix domain sockets, which are all less portable than
114 C++ itself.
115
116 Regarding the bloat, see the above question: It's easy to write
117 programs in C that use gobs of memory, an certainly possible to
118 write programs in C++ that don't. C++ also often comes with large
119 libraries, but this is not necessarily the case with GCC. Here is
120 what rxvt links against on my system with a minimal config:
121
122 libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x00002aaaaabc3000)
123 libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00002aaaaadde000)
124 libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00002aaaab01d000)
125 /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00002aaaaaaab000)
126
127 And here is rxvt-unicode:
128
129 libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x00002aaaaabc3000)
130 libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00002aaaaada2000)
131 libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00002aaaaaeb0000)
132 libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00002aaaab0ee000)
133 /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00002aaaaaaab000)
134
135 No large bloated libraries (of course, none were linked in
136 statically), except maybe libX11 :)
137
138 Does it support tabs, can I have a tabbed rxvt-unicode?
139 rxvt-unicode does not directly support tabs. It will work fine with
140 tabbing functionality of many window managers or similar tabbing
141 programs, and its embedding-features allow it to be embedded into
142 other programs, as witnessed by doc/rxvt-tabbed or the upcoming
143 "Gtk2::URxvt" perl module, which features a tabbed urxvt (murxvt)
144 terminal as an example embedding application.
145

24 The version number is displayed with the usage (-h). Also the escape 147 The version number is displayed with the usage (-h). Also the escape
25 sequence "ESC [ 8 n" sets the window title to the version number. 148 sequence "ESC [ 8 n" sets the window title to the version number.

167
168 I am maintaining rxvt-unicode for distribution/OS XXX, any
169 recommendation?
170 You should build one binary with the default options. configure now
171 enables most useful options, and the trend goes to making them
172 runtime-switchable, too, so there is usually no drawback to enbaling
173 them, except higher disk and possibly memory usage. The perl
174 interpreter should be enabled, as important functionality (menus,
175 selection, likely more in the future) depends on it.
176
177 You should not overwrite the "perl-ext-common" snd "perl-ext"
178 resources system-wide (except maybe with "defaults"). This will
179 result in useful behaviour. If your distribution aims at low memory,
180 add an empty "perl-ext-common" resource to the app-defaults file.
181 This will keep the perl interpreter disabled until the user enables
182 it.
183
184 If you can/want build more binaries, I recommend building a minimal
185 one with "--disable-everything" (very useful) and a maximal one with
186 "--enable-everything" (less useful, it will be very big due to a lot
187 of encodings built-in that increase download times and are rarely
188 used).
189
190 I need to make it setuid/setgid to support utmp/ptys on my OS, is this
191 safe?
192 It should be, starting with release 7.1. You are encouraged to
193 properly install urxvt with privileges necessary for your OS now.
194
195 When rxvt-unicode detects that it runs setuid or setgid, it will
196 fork into a helper process for privileged operations (pty handling
197 on some systems, utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling on others) and drop
198 privileges immediately. This is much safer than most other terminals
199 that keep privileges while running (but is more relevant to urxvt,
200 as it contains things as perl interpreters, which might be "helpful"
201 to attackers).
202
203 This forking is done as the very first within main(), which is very
204 early and reduces possible bugs to initialisation code run before
205 main(), or things like the dynamic loader of your system, which
206 should result in very little risk.

1209menuBar
1210 The exact syntax used is *almost* solidified. In the menus, DON'T try to
1211 use menuBar commands that add or remove a menuBar.
1212
1213 Note that in all of the commands, the */path/* *cannot* be omitted: use
1214 ./ to specify a menu relative to the current menu.
1215
1216 Overview of menuBar operation
1217 For the menuBar XTerm escape sequence "ESC ] 703 ; Pt ST", the syntax of
1218 "Pt" can be used for a variety of tasks:
1219
1220 At the top level is the current menuBar which is a member of a circular
1221 linked-list of other such menuBars.
1222
1223 The menuBar acts as a parent for the various drop-down menus, which in
1224 turn, may have labels, separator lines, menuItems and subMenus.
1225
1226 The menuItems are the useful bits: you can use them to mimic keyboard
1227 input or even to send text or escape sequences back to rxvt.
1228
1229 The menuBar syntax is intended to provide a simple yet robust method of
1230 constructing and manipulating menus and navigating through the menuBars.
1231
1232 The first step is to use the tag [menu:*name*] which creates the menuBar
1233 called *name* and allows access. You may now or menus, subMenus, and
1234 menuItems. Finally, use the tag [done] to set the menuBar access as
1235 readonly to prevent accidental corruption of the menus. To re-access the
1236 current menuBar for alterations, use the tag [menu], make the
1237 alterations and then use [done]
1238
1239
1240
1241 Commands
1242 [menu:+*name*]
1243 access the named menuBar for creation or alteration. If a new
1244 menuBar is created, it is called *name* (max of 15 chars) and the
1245 current menuBar is pushed onto the stack
1246
1247 [menu]
1248 access the current menuBar for alteration
1249
1250 [title:+*string*]
1251 set the current menuBar's title to *string*, which may contain the
1252 following format specifiers:
1253
1254 B<%n> rxvt name (as per the B<-name> command-line option)
1255 B<%v> rxvt version
1256 B<%%> literal B<%> character
1257
1258 [done]
1259 set menuBar access as readonly. End-of-file tag for [read:+*file*]
1260 operations.
1261
1262 [read:+*file*]
1263 read menu commands directly from *file* (extension ".menu" will be
1264 appended if required.) Start reading at a line with [menu] or
1265 [menu:+*name* and continuing until [done] is encountered.
1266
1267 Blank and comment lines (starting with #) are ignored. Actually,
1268 since any invalid menu commands are also ignored, almost anything
1269 could be construed as a comment line, but this may be tightened up
1270 in the future ... so don't count on it!.
1271
1272 [read:+*file*;+*name*]
1273 The same as [read:+*file*], but start reading at a line with
1274 [menu:+*name*] and continuing until [done:+*name*] or [done] is
1275 encountered.
1276
1277 [dump]
1278 dump all menuBars to the file /tmp/rxvt-PID in a format suitable for
1279 later rereading.
1280
1281 [rm:name]
1282 remove the named menuBar
1283
1284 [rm] [rm:]
1285 remove the current menuBar
1286
1287 [rm*] [rm:*]
1288 remove all menuBars
1289
1290 [swap]
1291 swap the top two menuBars
1292
1293 [prev]
1294 access the previous menuBar
1295
1296 [next]
1297 access the next menuBar
1298
1299 [show]
1300 Enable display of the menuBar
1301
1302 [hide]
1303 Disable display of the menuBar
1304
1305 [pixmap:+*name*]
1306 [pixmap:+*name*;*scaling*]
1307 (set the background pixmap globally
1308
1309 A Future implementation *may* make this local to the menubar)
1310
1311 [:+*command*:]
1312 ignore the menu readonly status and issue a *command* to or a menu
1313 or menuitem or change the ; a useful shortcut for setting the quick
1314 arrows from a menuBar.
1315
1316
1317
1318 Adding and accessing menus
1319 The following commands may also be + prefixed.
1320
1321 /+ access menuBar top level
1322
1323 ./+ access current menu level
1324
1325 ../+
1326 access parent menu (1 level up)
1327
1328 ../../
1329 access parent menu (multiple levels up)
1330
1331 */path/*menu
1332 add/access menu
1333
1334 */path/*menu/*
1335 add/access menu and clear it if it exists
1336
1337 */path/*{-}
1338 add separator
1339
1340 */path/*{item}
1341 add item as a label
1342
1343 */path/*{item} action
1344 add/alter *menuitem* with an associated *action*
1345
1346 */path/*{item}{right-text}
1347 add/alter *menuitem* with right-text as the right-justified text and
1348 as the associated *action*
1349
1350 */path/*{item}{rtext} action
1351 add/alter *menuitem* with an associated *action* and with rtext as
1352 the right-justified text.
1353
1354 Special characters in *action* must be backslash-escaped:
1355 \a \b \E \e \n \r \t \octal
1356
1357 or in control-character notation:
1358 ^@, ^A .. ^Z .. ^_, ^?
1359
1360 To send a string starting with a NUL (^@) character to the program,
1361 start *action* with a pair of NUL characters (^@^@), the first of which
1362 will be stripped off and the balance directed to the program. Otherwise
1363 if *action* begins with NUL followed by non-+NUL characters, the leading
1364 NUL is stripped off and the balance is sent back to rxvt.
1365
1366 As a convenience for the many Emacs-type editors, *action* may start
1367 with M- (eg, M-$ is equivalent to \E$) and a CR will be appended if
1368 missed from M-x commands.
1369
1370 As a convenience for issuing XTerm ESC ] sequences from a menubar (or
1371 quick arrow), a BEL (^G) will be appended if needed.
1372
1373 For example,
1374 M-xapropos is equivalent to \Exapropos\r
1375
1376 and \E]703;mona;100 is equivalent to \E]703;mona;100\a
1377
1378 The option {*right-rtext*} will be right-justified. In the absence of a
1379 specified action, this text will be used as the *action* as well.
1380
1381 For example,
1382 /File/{Open}{^X^F} is equivalent to /File/{Open}{^X^F} ^X^F
1383
1384 The left label *is* necessary, since it's used for matching, but
1385 implicitly hiding the left label (by using same name for both left and
1386 right labels), or explicitly hiding the left label (by preceeding it
1387 with a dot), makes it possible to have right-justified text only.
1388
1389 For example,
1390 /File/{Open}{Open} Open-File-Action
1391
1392 or hiding it
1393 /File/{.anylabel}{Open} Open-File-Action
1394
1395

1410 -/path/menu/*
1411 remove all items, separators and submenus from menu
1412
1413
1414
1415 Quick Arrows
1416 The menus also provide a hook for *quick arrows* to provide easier user
1417 access. If nothing has been explicitly set, the default is to emulate
1418 the curror keys. The syntax permits each arrow to be altered
1419 individually or all four at once without re-entering their common
1420 beginning/end text. For example, to explicitly associate cursor actions
1421 with the arrows, any of the following forms could be used:
1422
1423 <r>+*Right*
1424 <l>+*Left*
1425 <u>+*Up*
1426 <d>+*Down*
1427 Define actions for the respective arrow buttons
1428
1429 <b>+*Begin*
1430 <e>+*End*
1431 Define common beginning/end parts for *quick arrows* which used in
1432 conjunction with the above <r> <l> <u> <d> constructs
1433
1434 For example, define arrows individually,
1435 <u>\E[A
1436
1437 <d>\E[B
1438
1439 <r>\E[C
1440
1441 <l>\E[D
1442
1443 or all at once
1444 <u>\E[AZ<><d>\E[BZ<><r>\E[CZ<><l>\E[D
1445
1446 or more compactly (factoring out common parts)
1447 <b>\E[<u>AZ<><d>BZ<><r>CZ<><l>D
