SYNOPSIS |
5 |
rxvtc [same options as for rxvt] |
6 |
|
7 |
DESCRIPTION |
8 |
This manpage describes the rxvtc client program. It connects to the |
9 |
rxvtd daemon and requests a new terminal window. It takes the same |
10 |
arguments as the rxvt program. The environment will also be respected. |
11 |
Currently, it always returns immediately after contacting the daemon. |
12 |
|
13 |
OPTIONS |
14 |
All options that are valid for rxvt are valid for rxvtc, too. Please |
15 |
note that all options are currently interpreted in the context of the |
16 |
daemon process, which makes a difference for options that specify a file |
17 |
descriptor (such as -pty-fd). |
18 |
|
19 |
ENVIRONMENT |
20 |
All environment variables of the current process will be made available |
21 |
to the new instance, and will be interpreted as if rxvt were started |
22 |
directly. |
23 |
|
24 |
RXVT_SOCKET |
25 |
Both rxvtc and rxvtd use the environment variable RXVT_SOCKET to |
26 |
create a listening socket and to contact the rxvtd, respectively. If |
27 |
the variable is missing, $HOME/.rxvt-unicode-*<nodename>* is used. |
