-        when the user extends selections (double-click). Right now, it tries

-        convenient, too, if your ls supports "--quoting-style=shell".
+        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: \\|([^|]+)\\|
+        You can look at the source of the selection extension to see more
+        interesting uses, such as parsing a line from beginning to end.

-        Displays a digital clock using the built-in overlay.
+        Binds a popup menu to Ctrl-Button3 that lets you convert the
+        selection text into various other formats/action (such as uri
+        unescaping, perl evalution, web-browser starting etc.), depending on
+        content.
+    searchable-scrollback<hotkey> (enabled by default)
+        Adds regex search functionality to the scrollback buffer, triggered
+        by a hotkey (default: "M-s"). While in search mode, normal terminal
+        input/output is suspended and a regex is displayed at the bottom of
+        the screen.
+        Inputting characters appends them to the regex and continues
+        incremental search. "BackSpace" removes a character from the regex,
+        "Up" and "Down" search upwards/downwards in the scrollback buffer,
+        "End" jumps to the bottom. "Escape" leaves search mode and returns
+        to the point where search was started, while "Enter" or "Return"
+        stay at the current position and additionally stores the first match
+        in the current line into the primary selection.
+    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 $word":
+           URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^(\\S+):(\\d+):?$/vi +$2 \\Q$1\\E\\x0d/
+        And this example matches the same,but replaces it with vi-commands
+        you can paste directly into your (vi :) editor:
+           URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^(S+):(d+):?$/\\x1b:e \\Q$1\\E\\x0d:$2\\x0d/
+        Of course, this can be modified to suit your needs and your editor
+        :)

+        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.
     block-graphics-to-ascii
         A not very useful example of filtering all text output to the
         terminal, by replacing all line-drawing characters (U+2500 ..
         U+259F) by a similar-looking ascii character.
+    digital-clock
+        Displays a digital clock using the built-in overlay.
     example-refresh-hooks
         Displays a very simple digital clock in the upper right corner of
         the window. Illustrates overwriting the refresh callbacks to create
         your own overlays or changes.
+API DOCUMENTATION
   General API Considerations
     All objects (such as terminals, time watchers etc.) are typical
     reference-to-hash objects. The hash can be used to store anything you
     like. All members starting with an underscore (such as "_ptr" or
     "_hook") are reserved for internal uses and MUST NOT be accessed or
     Argument names also often indicate the type of a parameter. Here are
     some hints on what they mean:
     $text
         Rxvt-unicodes special way of encoding text, where one "unicode"
-        character always represents one screen cell. See row_t for a
+        character always represents one screen cell. See ROW_t for a
         discussion of this format.
     $string
         A perl text string, with an emphasis on *text*. It can store all
         unicode characters and is to be distinguished with text encoded in a
     $octets
         Either binary data or - more common - a text string encoded in a
         locale-specific way.
+  Extension Objects
+    Very perl extension is a perl class. A separate perl object is created
+    for each terminal and each extension and passed as the first parameter
+    to hooks. So extensions can use their $self object without having to
+    think about other extensions, with the exception of methods and members
+    that begin with an underscore character "_": these are reserved for
+    internal use.
+    Although it isn't a "urxvt::term" object, you can call all methods of
+    the "urxvt::term" class on this object.
+    It has the following methods and data members:
+    $urxvt_term = $self->{term}
+        Returns the "urxvt::term" object associated with this instance of
+        the extension. This member *must not* be changed in any way.
+    $self->enable ($hook_name => $cb, [$hook_name => $cb..])
+        Dynamically enable the given hooks (named without the "on_" prefix)
+        for this extension, replacing any previous hook. This is useful when
+        you want to overwrite time-critical hooks only temporarily.
+    $self->disable ($hook_name[, $hook_name..])
+        Dynamically disable the given hooks.
   Hooks
     The following subroutines can be declared in extension files, and will
     be called whenever the relevant event happens.
-    The first argument passed to them is an object private to each terminal
+    The first argument passed to them is an extension oject as described in
-    and extension package. You can call all "urxvt::term" methods on it, but
+    the in the "Extension Objects" section.
-    its not a real "urxvt::term" object. Instead, the real "urxvt::term"
-    object that is shared between all packages is stored in the "term"
-    member. It is, however, blessed intot he package of the extension
-    script, so for all practical purposes you can treat an extension script
-    as a class.
-    All of them must return a boolean value. If it is true, then the event

+    *When in doubt, return a false value (preferably "()").*
     on_init $term
         Called after a new terminal object has been initialized, but before
         windows are created or the command gets run. Most methods are unsafe
         to call or deliver senseless data, as terminal size and other
     on_sel_extend $term
         Called whenever the user tries to extend the selection (e.g. with a
         double click) and is either supposed to return false (normal
         operation), or should extend the selection itelf and return true to
-        suppress the built-in processing.
+        suppress the built-in processing. This can happen multiple times, as
+        long as the callback returns true, it will be called on every
+        further click by the user and is supposed to enlarge the selection
+        more and more, if possible.
         See the selection example extension.
     on_view_change $term, $offset
         Called whenever the view offset changes, i..e the user or program
         may be larger than the scroll back buffer or the terminal.
         It is called before lines are scrolled out (so rows 0 .. min ($lines
         - 1, $nrow - 1) represent the lines to be scrolled out). $saved is
         the total number of lines that will be in the scrollback buffer.
-    on_tty_activity $term *NYI*
-        Called whenever the program(s) running in the urxvt window send
-        output.
     on_osc_seq $term, $string
         Called whenever the ESC ] 777 ; string ST command sequence (OSC =
         operating system command) is processed. Cursor position and other
         state information is up-to-date when this happens. For
         argument. You can filter/change and output the text yourself by
         returning a true value and calling "$term->scr_add_lines" yourself.
         Please note that this might be very slow, however, as your hook is
         called for all text being output.
+    on_tt_write $term, $octets
+        Called whenever some data is written to the tty/pty and can be used
+        to suppress or filter tty input.
     on_line_update $term, $row
         Called whenever a line was updated or changed. Can be used to filter
         screen output (e.g. underline urls or other useless stuff). Only
         lines that are being shown will be filtered, and, due to performance
         reasons, not always immediately.
     on_focus_out $term
         Called wheneever the window loses keyboard focus, before
         rxvt-unicode does focus out processing.
-    on_key_press $term, $event, $octets
+    on_key_press $term, $event, $keysym, $octets
-    on_key_release $term, $event

     on_button_release $term, $event
     on_motion_notify $term, $event
     on_map_notify $term, $event
     on_unmap_notify $term, $event
         output, if any, in locale-specific encoding.
         subwindow.
   Variables in the "urxvt" Package
+    $urxvt::LIBDIR
+        The rxvt-unicode library directory, where, among other things, the
+        perl modules and scripts are stored.
+    $urxvt::RESCLASS, $urxvt::RESCLASS
+        The resource class and name rxvt-unicode uses to look up X
+        resources.
+    $urxvt::RXVTNAME
+        The basename of the installed binaries, usually "urxvt".
     $urxvt::TERM
         The current terminal. This variable stores the current "urxvt::term"
         object, whenever a callback/hook is executing.
   Functions in the "urxvt" Package
-    $term = new urxvt [arg...]
-        Creates a new terminal, very similar as if you had started it with
-        "system $binfile, arg...". Croaks (and probably outputs an error
-        message) if the new instance couldn't be created. Returns "undef" if
-        the new instance didn't initialise perl, and the terminal object
-        otherwise. The "init" and "start" hooks will be called during the
-        call.
     urxvt::fatal $errormessage
         Fatally aborts execution with the given error message. Avoid at all
         costs! The only time this is acceptable is when the terminal process
         starts up.
         newline. The module also overwrites the "warn" builtin with a
         function that calls this function.
         Using this function has the advantage that its output ends up in the
         correct place, e.g. on stderr of the connecting urxvtc client.
+        Messages have a size limit of 1023 bytes currently.
+    $is_safe = urxvt::safe
+        Returns true when it is safe to do potentially unsafe things, such
+        as evaluating perl code specified by the user. This is true when
+        urxvt was started setuid or setgid.
     $time = urxvt::NOW
         Returns the "current time" (as per the event loop).
     urxvt::CurrentTime
     $foreground = urxvt::GET_BASEFG $rend
     $background = urxvt::GET_BASEBG $rend
         Return the foreground/background colour index, respectively.
-    $rend = urxvt::SET_FGCOLOR ($rend, $new_colour)
+    $rend = urxvt::SET_FGCOLOR $rend, $new_colour
-    $rend = urxvt::SET_BGCOLOR ($rend, $new_colour)
+    $rend = urxvt::SET_BGCOLOR $rend, $new_colour
         Replace the foreground/background colour in the rendition mask with
         the specified one.
-    $value = urxvt::GET_CUSTOM ($rend)
+    $value = urxvt::GET_CUSTOM $rend
         Return the "custom" value: Every rendition has 5 bits for use by
         extensions. They can be set and changed as you like and are
         initially zero.
-    $rend = urxvt::SET_CUSTOM ($rend, $new_value)
+    $rend = urxvt::SET_CUSTOM $rend, $new_value
         Change the custom value.
   The "urxvt::anyevent" Class
     The sole purpose of this class is to deliver an interface to the
     "AnyEvent" module - any module using it will work inside urxvt without
-    further work. The only exception is that you cannot wait on condition
+    further programming. The only exception is that you cannot wait on
-    variables, but non-blocking condvar use is ok. What this means is that
+    condition variables, but non-blocking condvar use is ok. What this means
-    you cannot use blocking APIs, but the non-blocking variant should work.
+    is that you cannot use blocking APIs, but the non-blocking variant
+    should work.
   The "urxvt::term" Class
+    $term = new urxvt::term $envhashref, $rxvtname, [arg...]
+        Creates a new terminal, very similar as if you had started it with
+        system "$rxvtname, arg...". $envhashref must be a reference to a
+        %ENV-like hash which defines the environment of the new terminal.
+        Croaks (and probably outputs an error message) if the new instance
+        couldn't be created. Returns "undef" if the new instance didn't
+        initialise perl, and the terminal object otherwise. The "init" and
+        "start" hooks will be called during this call.
     $term->destroy
         Destroy the terminal object (close the window, free resources etc.).
+        Please note that rxvt will not exit as long as any event watchers
+        (timers, io watchers) are still active.
     $isset = $term->option ($optval[, $set])
         Returns true if the option specified by $optval is enabled, and
         optionally change it. All option values are stored by name in the
         hash %urxvt::OPTION. Options not enabled in this binary are not in

+    $value = $term->x_resource ($pattern)
+        Returns the X-Resource for the given pattern, excluding the program
+        or class name, i.e. "$term->x_resource ("boldFont")" should return
+        the same value as used by this instance of rxvt-unicode. Returns
+        "undef" if no resource with that pattern exists.
+        This method should only be called during the "on_start" hook, as
+        there is only one resource database per display, and later
+        invocations might return the wrong resources.
+    $success = $term->parse_keysym ($keysym_spec, $command_string)
+        Adds a keymap translation exactly as specified via a resource. See
+        the "keysym" resource in the rxvt(1) manpage.
     $rend = $term->rstyle ([$new_rstyle])
         Return and optionally change the current rendition. Text that is
         output by the terminal application will use this style.
     ($row, $col) = $term->screen_cur ([$row, $col])
     ($row, $col) = $term->selection_beg ([$row, $col])
     ($row, $col) = $term->selection_end ([$row, $col])
         Return the current values of the selection mark, begin or end
         positions, and optionally set them to new values.
+    $term->selection_make ($eventtime[, $rectangular])
+        Tries to make a selection as set by "selection_beg" and
+        "selection_end". If $rectangular is true (default: false), a
+        rectangular selection will be made. This is the prefered function to
+        make a selection.

     $term->overlay ($x, $y, $width, $height[, $rstyle[, $border]])
         Create a new (empty) overlay at the given position with the given
         width/height. $rstyle defines the initial rendition style (default:
         "OVERLAY_RSTYLE").
         Convert the given text string into the corresponding locale
         encoding.
     $string = $term->locale_decode ($octets)
         Convert the given locale-encoded octets into a perl string.
+    $term->scr_xor_span ($beg_row, $beg_col, $end_row, $end_col[, $rstyle])
+        XORs the rendition values in the given span with the provided value
+        (default: "RS_RVid"), which *MUST NOT* contain font styles. Useful
+        in refresh hooks to provide effects similar to the selection.
+    $term->scr_xor_rect ($beg_row, $beg_col, $end_row, $end_col[, $rstyle1[,
+    $rstyle2]])
+        Similar to "scr_xor_span", but xors a rectangle instead. Trailing
+        whitespace will additionally be xored with the $rstyle2, which
+        defaults to "RS_RVid | RS_Uline", which removes reverse video again
+        and underlines it instead. Both styles *MUST NOT* contain font
+        styles.
+    $term->scr_bell
+        Ring the bell!
     $term->scr_add_lines ($string)
         Write the given text string to the screen, as if output by the
         application running inside the terminal. It may not contain command
         sequences (escape codes), but is free to use line feeds, carriage
     $term->tt_write ($octets)
         Write the octets given in $data to the tty (i.e. as program input).
         To pass characters instead of octets, you should convert your
         strings first to the locale-specific encoding using
         "$term->locale_encode".
+    $old_events = $term->pty_ev_events ([$new_events])
+        Replaces the event mask of the pty watcher by the given event mask.
+        Can be used to suppress input and output handling to the pty/tty.
+        See the description of "urxvt::timer->events". Make sure to always
+        restore the previous value.
     $windowid = $term->parent
         Return the window id of the toplevel window.
     $windowid = $term->vt
     $max_scrollback = $term->saveLines
     $nrow_plus_saveLines = $term->total_rows
     $lines_in_scrollback = $term->nsaved
         Return various integers describing terminal characteristics.
+    $x_display = $term->display_id
+        Return the DISPLAY used by rxvt-unicode.
+    $lc_ctype = $term->locale
+        Returns the LC_CTYPE category string used by this rxvt-unicode.
+    $env = $term->env
+        Returns a copy of the environment in effect for the terminal as a
+        hashref similar to "\%ENV".
     $modifiermask = $term->ModLevel3Mask
     $modifiermask = $term->ModMetaMask
