urxvt::popup Classurxvt::timer Classurxvt::iow Classurxvt::iw Classurxvt::pw ClassYou can activate them like this:
rxvt -pe <extensionname>+
Or by adding them to the resource for extensions loaded by default:
++ URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,automove-background,selection-autotransform
Another example: Programs I use often output ``absolute path: '' at the +beginning of a line when they process multiple files. The following +pattern matches the filename (note, there is a single space at the very +end):
++ URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ^(/[^:]+):\+
You can look at the source of the selection extension to see more interesting uses, such as parsing a line from beginning to end.
This extension also offers the following bindable keyboard command:

It's sole argument is the popup menu, which can be modified. It should +either return nothing or a string, the initial boolean value and a code +reference. The string will be used as button text and the code reference +will be called when the toggle changes, with the new boolean value as +first argument.

It's sole argument is the popup menu, which can be modified. The selection
+is in $_, which can be used to decide wether to add something or not.
+It should either return nothing or a string and a code reference. The
+string will be used as button text and the code reference will be called
+when the button gets activated and should transform $_.
The following will add an entry a to b that transforms all as in
+the selection to bs, but only if the selection currently contains any
+as:
+ push @{ $self->{term}{selection_popup_hook} }, sub {
+ /a/ ? ("a to be" => sub { s/a/b/g }

To avoid too many false positives, this is only done when:
+The normal selection mechanism isn't disabled, so quick successive clicks +might interfere with selection creation in harmless ways.

Of course, this can be modified to suit your needs and your editor :)
+To expand the example above to typical perl error messages (``XXX at +FILENAME line YYY.''), you need a slightly more elaborate solution:
++ URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ( at .*? line \\d+[,.]) + URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^ at (.*?) line (\\d+)[,.]$/:e \\Q$1\E\\x0d:$2\\x0d/+
The first line tells the selection code to treat the unchanging part of +every error message as a selection pattern, and the second line transforms +the message into vi commands to load the file.
+Clicking a button will activate that tab. Pressing Shift-Left and +Shift-Right will switch to the tab left or right of the current one, +while Shift-Down creates a new tab.
+The tabbar itself can be configured similarly to a normal terminal, but
+with a resource class of URxvt.tabbed. In addition, it supports the
+following four resources (shown with defaults):
+ URxvt.tabbed.tabbar-fg: <colour-index, default 3> + URxvt.tabbed.tabbar-bg: <colour-index, default 0> + URxvt.tabbed.tab-fg: <colour-index, default 0> + URxvt.tabbed.tab-bg: <colour-index, default 1>+
See COLOR AND GRAPHICS in the rxvt(1) manpage for valid
+indices.
You enable it by specifying this extension and a preedit style of
+OnTheSpot, i.e.:
+ rxvt -pt OnTheSpot -pe xim-onthespot+
+ rxvt -pixmap background.xpm -pe automove-background+
We use it to implement a ``distributed selection mechanism'', which just +means that one command uploads the file to a remote server, and another +reads it.
+The commands can be set using the URxvt.remote-selection.store and
+URxvt.remote-selection.fetch resources. The first should read the
+selection to store from STDIN (always in UTF-8), the second should provide
+the selection data on STDOUT (also in UTF-8).
The defaults (which are likely useless to you) use rsh and cat:
++ URxvt.remote-selection.store: rsh ruth 'cat >/tmp/distributed-selection' + URxvt.remote-selection.fetch: rsh ruth 'cat /tmp/distributed-selection'+
It listens to the selection-pastebin:remote-pastebin keyboard command,
+i.e.
+ URxvt.keysym.C-M-e: perl:selection-pastebin:remote-pastebin+
Pressing this combination runs a command with % replaced by the name of
+the textfile. This command can be set via a resource:
+ URxvt.selection-pastebin.cmd: rsync -apP % ruth:/var/www/www.ta-sa.org/files/txt/.+
And the default is likely not useful to anybody but the few people around +here :)
+The name of the textfile is the hex encoded md5 sum of the selection, so +the same content should lead to the same filename.
+After a successful upload the selection will be replaced by the text given
+in the selection-pastebin-url resource (again, the % is the placeholder
+for the filename):
+ URxvt.selection-pastebin.url: http://www.ta-sa.org/files/txt/%+
