104<dd>
105<p>The selection works by trying to match a number of regexes and displaying
106them in increasing order of length. You can add your own regexes by
107specifying resources of the form:</p>

113 ...</pre>
114</dd>
115<dd>
116<p>The index number (0, 1...) must not have any holes, and each regex must
117contain at least one pair of capturing parentheses, which will be used for
118the match. For example, the followign adds a regex that matches everything
119between two vertical bars:</p>

123 URxvt.selection.pattern-0: \\|([^|]+)\\|</pre>

164is in <code>$_</code>, which can be used to decide wether to add something or not.

166string will be used as button text and the code reference will be called
167when the button gets activated and should transform <code>$_</code>.</p>

202<dd>
203A support package that tries to make editing with readline easier. At the
204moment, it reacts to clicking with the left mouse button by trying to
205move the text cursor to this position. It does so by generating as many
206cursor-left or cursor-right keypresses as required (the this only works
207for programs that correctly support wide characters).
208</dd>
209<dd>
210<p>To avoid too many false positives, this is only done when:</p>
211</dd>
212<dl>
213<dt><strong><a name="item_same">- the mouse is on the same (multi-row-) line as the text cursor.</a></strong><br />
214</dt>
215<dt><strong><a name="item__2d_the_primary_screen_is_currently_being_displaye">- the primary screen is currently being displayed.</a></strong><br />
216</dt>
217<dt><strong><a name="item__2d_the_text_cursor_is_visible_2e">- the text cursor is visible.</a></strong><br />
218</dt>
219</dl>
220<p>The normal selection mechanism isn't disabled, so quick successive clicks
221might interfere with selection creation in harmless ways.</p>
222<dt><strong><a name="item_selection_2dautotransform">selection-autotransform</a></strong><br />
223</dt>
224<dd>
225This selection allows you to do automatic transforms on a selection
226whenever a selection is made.
227</dd>
228<dd>
229<p>It works by specifying perl snippets (most useful is a single <code>s///</code>
230operator) that modify <code>$_</code> as resources:</p>
231</dd>
232<dd>
233<pre>
234 URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: transform
235 URxvt.selection-autotransform.1: transform
236 ...</pre>
237</dd>
238<dd>
239<p>For example, the following will transform selections of the form
240<code>filename:number</code>, often seen in compiler messages, into <code>vi +$filename
241$word</code>:</p>
242</dd>
243<dd>
244<pre>
245 URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^([^:[:space:]]+):(\\d+):?$/vi +$2 \\Q$1\\E\\x0d/</pre>
246</dd>
247<dd>
248<p>And this example matches the same,but replaces it with vi-commands you can
249paste directly into your (vi :) editor:</p>
250</dd>
251<dd>
252<pre>
253 URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^([^:[:space:]]+(\\d+):?$/:e \\Q$1\\E\\x0d:$2\\x0d/</pre>
254</dd>
255<dd>
256<p>Of course, this can be modified to suit your needs and your editor :)</p>
257</dd>
258<dd>
259<p>To expand the example above to typical perl error messages (``XXX at
260FILENAME line YYY.''), you need a slightly more elaborate solution:</p>
261</dd>
262<dd>
263<pre>
264 URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ( at .*? line \\d+[,.])
265 URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^ at (.*?) line (\\d+)[,.]$/:e \\Q$1\E\\x0d:$2\\x0d/</pre>
266</dd>
267<dd>
268<p>The first line tells the selection code to treat the unchanging part of
269every error message as a selection pattern, and the second line transforms
270the message into vi commands to load the file.</p>
271</dd>
272<p></p>
273<dt><strong><a name="item_tabbed">tabbed</a></strong><br />
274</dt>
275<dd>
276This transforms the terminal into a tabbar with additional terminals, that
277is, it implements what is commonly refered to as ``tabbed terminal''. The topmost line
278displays a ``[NEW]'' button, which, when clicked, will add a new tab, followed by one
279button per tab.
280</dd>
281<dd>
282<p>Clicking a button will activate that tab. Pressing <strong>Shift-Left</strong> and
283<strong>Shift-Right</strong> will switch to the tab left or right of the current one,
284while <strong>Shift-Down</strong> creates a new tab.</p>
141</dd> 285</dd>
142<p></p> 286<p></p>

291make them clickable. When middle-clicked, the program specified in the
292resource <code>urlLauncher</code> (default <code>x-www-browser</code>) will be started with
293the URL as first argument.

296<dt><strong><a name="item_automove_2dbackground">automove-background</a></strong><br />
297</dt>
298<dd>
299This is basically a one-line extension that dynamically changes the background pixmap offset
300to the window position, in effect creating the same effect as pseudo transparency with
301a custom pixmap. No scaling is supported in this mode. Exmaple:

333This is a little rarely useful extension that Uploads the selection as
334textfile to a remote site (or does other things). (The implementation is
335not currently secure for use in a multiuser environment as it writes to
336<em>/tmp</em> directly.).
