96<p>A double-click usually selects the word under the cursor, further clicks
97will enlarge the selection.</p>
98</dd>
99<dd>
100<p>The selection works by trying to match a number of regexes and displaying
101them in increasing order of length. You can add your own regexes by
102specifying resources of the form:</p>
103</dd>
104<dd>
105<pre>
106 URxvt.selection.pattern-0: perl-regex
107 URxvt.selection.pattern-1: perl-regex
108 ...</pre>
109</dd>
110<dd>
111<p>The index number (0, 1...) must not have any holes, and each regex must
112contain at least one pair of capturing parentheses, which will be used for
113the match. For example, the followign adds a regex that matches everything
114between two vertical bars:</p>
115</dd>
116<dd>
117<pre>
118 URxvt.selection.pattern-0: \\|([^|]+)\\|</pre>
119</dd>
120<dd>
121<p>You can look at the source of the selection extension to see more
122interesting uses, such as parsing a line from beginning to end.</p>

153<p>Other extensions can extend this popup menu by pushing a code reference
154onto <code>@{ $term-</code>{selection_popup_hook} }&gt;, that is called whenever the
155popup is displayed.</p>
156</dd>
157<dd>
158<p>It's sole argument is the popup menu, which can be modified. The selection
159is in <code>$_</code>, which can be used to decide wether to add something or not.
160It should either return nothing or a string and a code reference. The
161string will be used as button text and the code reference will be called
162when the button gets activated and should transform <code>$_</code>.</p>
163</dd>
164<dd>
165<p>The following will add an entry <code>a to b</code> that transforms all <code>a</code>s in
166the selection to <code>b</code>s, but only if the selection currently contains any
167<code>a</code>s:</p>
168</dd>

172 /a/ ? (&quot;a to be&quot; =&gt; sub { s/a/b/g }
173 : ()

178</dt>
179<dd>
180Adds regex search functionality to the scrollback buffer, triggered
181by a hotkey (default: <code>M-s</code>). While in search mode, normal terminal
182input/output is suspended and a regex is displayed at the bottom of the
183screen.
184</dd>
185<dd>
186<p>Inputting characters appends them to the regex and continues incremental
187search. <code>BackSpace</code> removes a character from the regex, <code>Up</code> and <code>Down</code>
188search upwards/downwards in the scrollback buffer, <code>End</code> jumps to the
189bottom. <code>Escape</code> leaves search mode and returns to the point where search
190was started, while <code>Enter</code> or <code>Return</code> stay at the current position and
191additionally stores the first match in the current line into the primary
192selection.</p>
193</dd>
194<p></p>
195<dt><strong><a name="item_selection_2dautotransform">selection-autotransform</a></strong><br />
196</dt>
197<dd>
198This selection allows you to do automatic transforms on a selection
199whenever a selection is made.
200</dd>
201<dd>
202<p>It works by specifying perl snippets (most useful is a single <code>s///</code>
203operator) that modify <code>$_</code> as resources:</p>
204</dd>
205<dd>
206<pre>
207 URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: transform
208 URxvt.selection-autotransform.1: transform
209 ...</pre>
210</dd>
211<dd>
212<p>For example, the following will transform selections of the form
213<code>filename:number</code>, often seen in compiler messages, into <code>vi +$filename
214$word</code>:</p>
215</dd>
216<dd>
217<pre>
218 URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^([^:[:space:]]+):(\\d+):?$/vi +$2 \\Q$1\\E\\x0d/</pre>
219</dd>
220<dd>
221<p>And this example matches the same,but replaces it with vi-commands you can
222paste directly into your (vi :) editor:</p>
223</dd>
224<dd>
225<pre>
226 URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^([^:[:space:]]+(\\d+):?$/:e \\Q$1\\E\\x0d:$2\\x0d/</pre>
227</dd>
228<dd>
229<p>Of course, this can be modified to suit your needs and your editor :)</p>
230</dd>
231<dd>
232<p>To expand the example above to typical perl error messages (``XXX at
233FILENAME line YYY.''), you need a slightly more elaborate solution:</p>
234</dd>
235<dd>
236<pre>
237 URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ( at .*? line \\d+[,.])
238 URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^ at (.*?) line (\\d+)[,.]$/:e \\Q$1\E\\x0d:$2\\x0d/</pre>
239</dd>
240<dd>
241<p>The first line tells the selection code to treat the unchanging part of
242every error message as a selection pattern, and the second line transforms
243the message into vi commands to load the file.</p>
123</dd> 244</dd>

374<h2><a name="extension_objects">Extension Objects</a></h2>
375<p>Very perl extension is a perl class. A separate perl object is created
376for each terminal and each extension and passed as the first parameter to
377hooks. So extensions can use their <code>$self</code> object without having to think
378about other extensions, with the exception of methods and members that
379begin with an underscore character <code>_</code>: these are reserved for internal
380use.</p>
381<p>Although it isn't a <code>urxvt::term</code> object, you can call all methods of the
382<code>urxvt::term</code> class on this object.</p>
383<p>It has the following methods and data members:</p>
