144 .IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
145 \&\fB@@RXVT_NAME@@c\fR [same options as for @@RXVT_NAME@@]
146 .SH "DESCRIPTION"
147 .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
148 This manpage describes the \fB@@RXVT_NAME@@c\fR client program. It connects
149 to the \fB@@RXVT_NAME@@d\fR daemon and requests a new terminal window. It
150 takes the same arguments as the \fB@@RXVT_NAME@@\fR program. The environment
151 will also be respected. Currently, it always returns immediately after
152 contacting the daemon.
153 .SH "OPTIONS"
154 .IX Header "OPTIONS"
155 If the first option is \fB\-k\fR, \fB@@RXVT_NAME@@c\fR tries to kill the
156 daemon process and returns.
157 .PP
158 All options that are valid for \fB@@RXVT_NAME@@\fR are valid for
159 \&\fB@@RXVT_NAME@@c\fR, too. Please note that options are interpreted in the
160 context of the daemon process. However, as current working directory,
161 process environment and any file descriptor (e.g. for \f(CW\*(C`\-pty\-fd\*(C'\fR) are
162 preserved, this rarely makes a difference.
163 .SH "EXIT STATUS"
164 .IX Header "EXIT STATUS"
165 If everything went well, @@RXVT_NAME@@c returns with an exit status of \f(CW0\fR.
166 If contacting the daemon fails, it exits with the exit status \f(CW2\fR. In all other error
167 cases it returns with status \f(CW1\fR.
168 .PP
169 This can be used to implement auto-starting behaviour, by checking for an
170 exit status of \f(CW2\fR, running \f(CW\*(C`@@RXVT_NAME@@d \-f \-q\*(C'\fR and retrying the call
171 to @@RXVT_NAME@@c, like this:

181 .SH "ENVIRONMENT"
182 .IX Header "ENVIRONMENT"
183 All environment variables of the current process will be made available
184 to the new instance, and will be interpreted as if \fB@@RXVT_NAME@@\fR were
185 started directly.
186 .IP "\fB\s-1RXVT_SOCKET\s0\fR" 4
187 .IX Item "RXVT_SOCKET"
188 Both @@RXVT_NAME@@c and @@RXVT_NAME@@d use the environment variable
189 \&\fI\s-1RXVT_SOCKET\s0\fR to create a listening socket and to contact the
190 @@RXVT_NAME@@d, respectively. If the variable is missing,
191 \&\fI\f(CI$HOME\fI/.urxvt/urxvtd\-\fI<nodename>\fI\fR is used. The variable must
192 specify the absolute path of the socket to create.
