|
63 | Why doesn't rxvt-unicode read my resources? |
|
|
64 | Well, why, indeed? It does, in a way very similar to other X |
|
|
65 | applications. Most importantly, this means that if you or your OS |
|
|
66 | loads resources into the X display (the right way to do it), |
|
|
67 | rxvt-unicode will ignore any resource files in your home directory. |
|
|
68 | It will only read $HOME/.Xdefaults when no resources are attached to |
|
|
69 | the display. |
|
|
70 | |
|
|
71 | If you have or use an $HOME/.Xresources file, chances are that |
|
|
72 | resources are loaded into your X-server. In this case, you have to |
|
|
73 | re-login after every change (or run xrdb -merge $HOME/.Xresources). |
|
|
74 | |
|
|
75 | Also consider the form resources have to use: |
|
|
76 | |
|
|
77 | URxvt.resource: value |
|
|
78 | |
|
|
79 | If you want to use another form (there are lots of different ways of |
|
|
80 | specifying resources), make sure you understand wether and why it |
|
|
81 | works. If unsure, use the form above. |
|
|
82 | |
|
|
83 | I can't get transparency working, what am I doing wrong? |
|
|
84 | First of all, transparency isn't officially supported in |
|
|
85 | rxvt-unicode, so you are mostly on your own. Do not bug the author |
|
|
86 | about it (but you may bug everybody else). Also, if you can't get it |
|
|
87 | working consider it a rite of passage, and you failed. |
|
|
88 | |
|
|
89 | Here are three ways to get transparency. Do read the manpage and |
|
|
90 | option descriptions for the programs mentioned and rxvt-unicode. |
|
|
91 | Really, do it! |
|
|
92 | |
|
|
93 | 1. Use inheritPixmap: |
|
|
94 | |
|
|
95 | Esetroot wallpaper.jpg |
|
|
96 | rxvt -ip -tint red -sh 40 |
|
|
97 | |
|
|
98 | That works. If you think it doesn't, you lack transparency and |
|
|
99 | tinting support, or you are unable to read. |
|
|
100 | |
|
|
101 | 2. Use a simple pixmap and emulate pseudo-transparency. This enables |
|
|
102 | you to use effects other than tinting and shading: Just |
|
|
103 | shade/tint/whatever your picture with gimp: |
|
|
104 | |
|
|
105 | convert wallpaper.jpg -blur 20x20 -modulate 30 background.xpm |
|
|
106 | rxvt -pixmap background.xpm -pe automove-background |
|
|
107 | |
|
|
108 | That works. If you think it doesn't, you lack XPM and Perl support, |
|
|
109 | or you are unable to read. |
|
|
110 | |
|
|
111 | 3. Use an ARGB visual: |
|
|
112 | |
|
|
113 | rxvt -depth 432 -fg grey90 -bg rgba:0000/0000/0000/c000 |
|
|
114 | |
|
|
115 | This requires XFT support, and support form your X-server. If that |
|
|
116 | doesn't work for you, blame Xorg and Keith Packard. ARGB visuals |
|
|
117 | aren't there yet, no matter what they claim. Rxvt-Unicode contains |
|
|
118 | the neccessary bugfixes and workarounds for Xft and Xlib to make it |
|
|
119 | work. |
| 62 | |
120 | |
| 63 | Isn't rxvt supposed to be small? Don't all those features bloat? |

122 | I often get asked about this, and I think, no, they didn't cause |

| 66 | can see that the urxvt binary is larger (due to some encoding tables |
