72 } else { 73 } else {
73 return scale load "$HOME/sunday.png"; 74 return load "$HOME/sunday.png";

115horizontal and vertical dimensions. For example, this halves the image 118horizontal and vertical dimensions. For example, this halves the image
116width and doubles the image height: 119width and doubles the image height:
117 120
118 scale 0.5, 2, load "$HOME/mypic.png" 121 scale 0.5, 2, load "$HOME/mypic.png"
119 122
120Other effects than scalign are also readily available, for exmaple, you can 123IF you try out these expressions, you might suffer from some sluggishness,
121tile the image to fill the whole window, instead of resizing it: 124because each time the terminal is resized, it loads the PNG image agin
125and scales it. Scaling is usually fast (and unavoidable), but loading the
126image can be quite time consuming. This is where C<keep> comes in handy:
122 127
128 scale 0.5, 2, keep { load "$HOME/mypic.png" }
129
130The C<keep> operator executes all the statements inside the braces only
131once, or when it thinks the outcome might change. In other cases it
132returns the last value computed by the brace block.
133
134This means that the C<load> is only executed once, which makes it much
135faster, but also means that more memory is being used, because the loaded
136image must be kept in memory at all times. In this expression, the
137trade-off is likely worth it.
138
139But back to effects: Other effects than scaling are also readily
140available, for example, you can tile the image to fill the whole window,
141instead of resizing it:
142
123 tile load "$HOME/mypic.png" 143 tile keep { load "$HOME/mypic.png" }
124 144
125In fact, images returned by C<load> are in C<tile> mode by default, so the C<tile> operator 145In fact, images returned by C<load> are in C<tile> mode by default, so the
126is kind of superfluous. 146C<tile> operator is kind of superfluous.

149touch:
129 150
130 mirror load "$HOME/mypic.png" 151 mirror keep { load "$HOME/mypic.png" }
131 152
132This is also a typical background expression: 153Another common background expression is:
133 154
134 rootalign root 155 rootalign root
135 156
136It first takes a snapshot of the screen background image, and then 157This one first takes a snapshot of the screen background image, and then
137moves it to the upper left corner of the screen - the result is 158moves it to the upper left corner of the screen (as opposed to the upper
138pseudo-transparency, as the image seems to be static while the window is 159left corner of the terminal window)- the result is pseudo-transparency:
139moved around. 160the image seems to be static while the window is moved around.
140 161
141=head2 CYCLES AND CACHING 162=head2 CACHING AND SENSITIVITY
142 163
143As has been mentioned before, the expression might be evaluated multiple 164Since some operations (such as C<load> and C<blur>) can take a long time,
144times. Each time the expression is reevaluated, a new cycle is said to 165caching results can be very important for a smooth operation. Caching can
145have begun. Many operators cache their results till the next cycle. 166also be useful to reduce memory usage, though, for example, when an image
167is cached by C<load>, it could be shared by multiple terminal windows
168running inside urxvtd.
146 169
147For example, the C<load> operator keeps a copy of the image. If it is 170=head3 C<keep { ... }> caching
148asked to load the same image on the next cycle it will not load it again,
149but return the cached copy.
150 171
151This only works for one cycle though, so as long as you load the same 172The most important way to cache expensive operations is to use C<keep {
152image every time, it will always be cached, but when you load a different 173... }>. The C<keep> operator takes a block of multiple statements enclosed
153image, it will forget about the first one. 174by C<{}> and keeps the return value in memory.
154 175
155This allows you to either speed things up by keeping multiple images in 176An expression can be "sensitive" to various external events, such as
156memory, or comserve memory by loading images more often. 177scaling or moving the window, root background changes and timers. Simply
178using an expression (such as C<scale> without parameters) that depends on
179certain changing values (called "variables"), or using those variables
180directly, will make an expression sensitive to these events - for example,
181using C<scale> or C<TW> will make the expression sensitive to the terminal
182size, and thus to resizing events.
157 183
158For example, you can keep two images in memory and use a random one like 184When such an event happens, C<keep> will automatically trigger a
159this: 185reevaluation of the whole expression with the new value of the expression.
160 186
161 my $img1 = load "img1.png"; 187C<keep> is most useful for expensive operations, such as C<blur>:
162 my $img2 = load "img2.png";
163 (0.5 > rand) ? $img1 : $img2
164 188
165Since both images are "loaded" every time the expression is evaluated, 189 rootalign keep { blur 20, root }
166they are always kept in memory. Contrast this version:
167 190
168 my $path1 = "img1.png"; 191This makes a blurred copy of the root background once, and on subsequent
169 my $path2 = "img2.png"; 192calls, just root-aligns it. Since C<blur> is usually quite slow and
170 load ((0.5 > rand) ? $path1 : $path2) 193C<rootalign> is quite fast, this trades extra memory (for the cached
194blurred pixmap) with speed (blur only needs to be redone when root
195changes).
171 196
172Here, a path is selected randomly, and load is only called for one image, 197=head3 C<load> caching
173so keeps only one image in memory. If, on the next evaluation, luck 198
174decides to use the other path, then it will have to load that image again. 199The C<load> operator itself does not keep images in memory, but as long as
200the image is still in memory, C<load> will use the in-memory image instead
201of loading it freshly from disk.
202
203That means that this expression:
204
205 keep { load "$HOME/path..." }
206
207Not only caches the image in memory, other terminal instances that try to
208C<load> it can reuse that in-memory copy.

229
230Since some operations in the underlying XRender extension can effectively
231freeze your X-server for prolonged time, this extension enforces a minimum
232time between updates, which is normally about 0.1 seconds.
233
234If you want to do updates more often, you can decrease this safety

840=head2 OTHER STUFF
841
842Anything that didn't fit any of the other categories, even after applying
843force and closing our eyes.
844
845=over 4
846
847=item keep { ... }
848
849This operator takes a code block as argument, that is, one or more
850statements enclosed by braces.
851
852The trick is that this code block is only evaluated when the outcome
853changes - on other calls the C<keep> simply returns the image it computed
854previously (yes, it should only be used with images). Or in other words,
855C<keep> I<caches> the result of the code block so it doesn't need to be
856computed again.
857
858This can be extremely useful to avoid redoing slow operations - for
859example, if your background expression takes the root background, blurs it
860and then root-aligns it it would have to blur the root background on every
861window move or resize.
862
863Another example is C<load>, which can be quite slow.
864
865In fact, urxvt itself encloses the whole expression in some kind of
866C<keep> block so it only is reevaluated as required.
867
868Putting the blur into a C<keep> block will make sure the blur is only done
869once, while the C<rootalign> is still done each time the window moves.
870
871 rootlign keep { blur 10, root }
872
873This leaves the question of how to force reevaluation of the block,
874in case the root background changes: If expression inside the block
875is sensitive to some event (root background changes, window geometry
876changes), then it will be reevaluated automatically as needed.
