37     <h1><a name="description">DESCRIPTION</a></h1>
38     <p>This manpage describes the <strong>rxvtc</strong> client program. It connects
39     to the <strong>rxvtd</strong> daemon and requests a new terminal window. It
40     takes the same arguments as the <strong>rxvt</strong> program. The environment
41     will also be respected. Currently, it always returns immediately after
42     contacting the daemon.</p>

46     <h1><a name="options">OPTIONS</a></h1>
47     <p>All options that are valid for <strong>rxvt</strong> are valid for
48     <strong>rxvtc</strong>, too. Please note that all options are currently
49     interpreted in the context of the daemon process, which makes a difference
50     for options that specify a file descriptor (such as <strong>-pty-fd</strong>).</p>

53     <hr />
54     <h1><a name="environment">ENVIRONMENT</a></h1>
55     <p>All environment variables of the current process will be made available
56     to the new instance, and will be interpreted as if <strong>rxvt</strong> were
57     started directly.</p>

61     <dd>
62     Both rxvtc and rxvtd use the environment variable
63 root 1.2 <em>RXVT_SOCKET</em> to create a listening socket and to contact the
64     rxvtd, respectively. If the variable is missing,
65     <em>$HOME/.rxvt-unicode-<em>&lt;nodename</em> </em>&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; is used. The variable must
66     specify the absolute path of the socket to create.
