    selection (enabled by default)
    (More) intelligent selection. This extension tries to be more intelligent -when the user extends selections (double-click). Right now, it tries to -select urls and complete shell-quoted arguments, which is very convenient, -too, if your ls supports --quoting-style=shell. +when the user extends selections (double-click and further clicks). Right +now, it tries to select words, urls and complete shell-quoted +arguments, which is very convenient, too, if your ls supports +--quoting-style=shell. +
    +
    +

    A double-click usually selects the word under the cursor, further clicks +will enlarge the selection.

    +
    +
    +

    The selection works by trying to match a number of regexes and displaying +them in increasing order of length. You can add your own regexes by +specifying resources of the form:

    +
    +
    +
    +   URxvt.selection.pattern-0: perl-regex
    +   URxvt.selection.pattern-1: perl-regex
    +   ...
    +
    +
    +

    The index number (0, 1...) must not have any holes, and each regex must +contain at least one pair of capturing parentheses, which will be used for +the match. For example, the followign adds a regex that matches everything +between two vertical bars:

    +
    +
    +
    +   URxvt.selection.pattern-0: \\|([^|]+)\\|
    +
    +
    +

    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.

    digital-clock
    +
    readline (enabled by default)
    -Displays a digital clock using the built-in overlay. +A support package that tries to make editing with readline easier. At +the moment, it reacts to clicking shift-left mouse button by trying to +move the text cursor to this position. It does so by generating as many +cursor-left or cursor-right keypresses as required (the this only works +for programs that correctly support wide characters). +
    +
    +

    To avoid too many false positives, this is only done when:

    +
    +
    +
    - the tty is in ICANON state.
    +
    +
    - the text cursor is visible.
    +
    +
    - the primary screen is currently being displayed.
    +
    +
    - the mouse is on the same (multi-row-) line as the text cursor.
    +
    +
    +

    The normal selection mechanism isn't disabled, so quick successive clicks +might interfere with selection creation in harmless ways.

    +
    selection-autotransform
    +
    +
    +This selection allows you to do automatic transforms on a selection +whenever a selection is made. +
    +
    +

    It works by specifying perl snippets (most useful is a single s/// +operator) that modify $_ as resources:

    +
    +
    +
    +   URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: transform
    +   URxvt.selection-autotransform.1: transform
    +   ...
    +
    +
    +

    For example, the following will transform selections of the form +filename:number, often seen in compiler messages, into vi +$filename +$word:

    +
    +
    +
    +   URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^([^:[:space:]]+):(\\d+):?$/vi +$2 \\Q$1\\E\\x0d/
    +
    +
    +

    And this example matches the same,but replaces it with vi-commands you can +paste directly into your (vi :) editor:

    +
    +
    +
    +   URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^([^:[:space:]]+(\\d+):?$/:e \\Q$1\\E\\x0d:$2\\x0d/
    +
    +
    +

    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.

    +
    +

    +
    tabbed
    +
    +
    +This transforms the terminal into a tabbar with additional terminals, that +is, it implements what is commonly refered to as ``tabbed terminal''. The topmost line +displays a ``[NEW]'' button, which, when clicked, will add a new tab, followed by one +button per tab. +
    +
    +

    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.

    mark-urls
    -Uses per-line display filtering (on_line_update) to underline urls. +Uses per-line display filtering (on_line_update) to underline urls and +make them clickable. When middle-clicked, the program specified in the +resource urlLauncher (default x-www-browser) will be started with +the URL as first argument. +

    xim-onthespot
    +
    +
    +This (experimental) perl extension implements OnTheSpot editing. It does +not work perfectly, and some input methods don't seem to work well with +OnTheSpot editing in general, but it seems to work at leats for SCIM and +kinput2. +
    +
    +

    You enable it by specifying this extension and a preedit style of +OnTheSpot, i.e.:

    +
    +
    +
    +   rxvt -pt OnTheSpot -pe xim-onthespot
    +
    +

    automove-background

    +

    remote-clipboard
    +
    +
    +Somewhat of a misnomer, this extension adds two menu entries to the +selection popup that allows one ti run external commands to store the +selection somewhere and fetch it again. +
    +
    +

    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'
    +
    +

    +
    selection-pastebin
    +
    +
    +This is a little rarely useful extension that Uploads the selection as +textfile to a remote site (or does other things). (The implementation is +not currently secure for use in a multiuser environment as it writes to +/tmp directly.). +
    +
    +

    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/%
