15 --background-interval seconds
16
17=head1 DESCRIPTION
18
19This extension manages the terminal background by creating a picture that
20is behind the text, replacing the normal background colour.
21
22It does so by evaluating a Perl expression that I<calculates> the image on
23the fly, for example, by grabbing the root background or loading a file.
24
25While the full power of Perl is available, the operators have been design
26to be as simple as possible.
27
28For example, to load an image and scale it to the window size, you would
29use:
30
31 urxvt --background-expr 'scale keep { load "/path/to/mybg.png" }'
32
33Or specified as a X resource:
34
35 URxvt.background-expr: scale keep { load "/path/to/mybg.png" }
36
37=head1 THEORY OF OPERATION
38
39At startup, just before the window is mapped for the first time, the
40expression is evaluated and must yield an image. The image is then
41extended as necessary to cover the whole terminal window, and is set as a
42background pixmap.
43
44If the image contains an alpha channel, then it will be used as-is in
45visuals that support alpha channels (for example, for a compositing
46manager). In other visuals, the terminal background colour will be used to
47replace any transparency.
48
49When the expression relies, directly or indirectly, on the window size,
50position, the root pixmap, or a timer, then it will be remembered. If not,
51then it will be removed.
52
53If any of the parameters that the expression relies on changes (when the
54window is moved or resized, its position or size changes; when the root
55pixmap is replaced by another one the root background changes; or when the
56timer elapses), then the expression will be evaluated again.
57
58For example, an expression such as C<scale keep { load "$HOME/mybg.png"
59}> scales the image to the window size, so it relies on the window size
60and will be reevaluated each time it is changed, but not when it moves for
61example. That ensures that the picture always fills the terminal, even
62after its size changes.
63
64=head2 EXPRESSIONS
65
66Expressions are normal Perl expressions, in fact, they are Perl blocks -
67which means you could use multiple lines and statements:
68
69 scale keep {
70 again 3600;
71 if (localtime now)[6]) {
72 return load "$HOME/weekday.png";
73 } else {
74 return load "$HOME/sunday.png";
75 }
76 }
77
78This inner expression is evaluated once per hour (and whenever the
79temrinal window is resized). It sets F<sunday.png> as background on
80Sundays, and F<weekday.png> on all other days.
81
82Fortunately, we expect that most expressions will be much simpler, with
83little Perl knowledge needed.
84
85Basically, you always start with a function that "generates" an image
86object, such as C<load>, which loads an image from disk, or C<root>, which
87returns the root window background image:
88
89 load "$HOME/mypic.png"
90
91The path is usually specified as a quoted string (the exact rules can be
92found in the L<perlop> manpage). The F<$HOME> at the beginning of the
93string is expanded to the home directory.
94
95Then you prepend one or more modifiers or filtering expressions, such as
96C<scale>:
97
98 scale load "$HOME/mypic.png"
99
100Just like a mathematical expression with functions, you should read these
101expressions from right to left, as the C<load> is evaluated first, and
102its result becomes the argument to the C<scale> function.
103
104Many operators also allow some parameters preceding the input image
105that modify its behaviour. For example, C<scale> without any additional
106arguments scales the image to size of the terminal window. If you specify
107an additional argument, it uses it as a scale factor (multiply by 100 to
108get a percentage):
109
110 scale 2, load "$HOME/mypic.png"
111
112This enlarges the image by a factor of 2 (200%). As you can see, C<scale>
113has now two arguments, the C<200> and the C<load> expression, while
114C<load> only has one argument. Arguments are separated from each other by
115commas.
116
117Scale also accepts two arguments, which are then separate factors for both
118horizontal and vertical dimensions. For example, this halves the image
119width and doubles the image height:
120
121 scale 0.5, 2, load "$HOME/mypic.png"
122
123IF you try out these expressions, you might suffer from some sluggishness,
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:
127
128 scale 0.5, 2, keep { load "$HOME/mypic.png" }
129
130The C<keep> operator executes all the statements inside the braces only
131once, or when it thinks the outcome might change. In other cases it
132returns the last value computed by the brace block.
133
134This means that the C<load> is only executed once, which makes it much
135faster, but also means that more memory is being used, because the loaded
136image must be kept in memory at all times. In this expression, the
137trade-off is likely worth it.
138
139But back to effects: Other effects than scaling are also readily
140available, for example, you can tile the image to fill the whole window,
141instead of resizing it:
142
143 tile keep { load "$HOME/mypic.png" }
144
145In fact, images returned by C<load> are in C<tile> mode by default, so the
146C<tile> operator is kind of superfluous.
147
148Another common effect is to mirror the image, so that the same edges
149touch:
150
151 mirror keep { load "$HOME/mypic.png" }
152
153Another common background expression is:
154
155 rootalign root
156
157This one first takes a snapshot of the screen background image, and then
158moves it to the upper left corner of the screen (as opposed to the upper
159left corner of the terminal window)- the result is pseudo-transparency:
160the image seems to be static while the window is moved around.
161
162=head2 CACHING AND SENSITIVITY
163
164Since some operations (such as C<load> and C<blur>) can take a long time,
165caching results can be very important for a smooth operation. Caching can
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.
169
170=head3 C<keep { ... }> caching
171
172The most important way to cache expensive operations is to use C<keep {
173... }>. The C<keep> operator takes a block of multiple statements enclosed
174by C<{}> and keeps the return value in memory.
175
176An expression can be "sensitive" to various external events, such as
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.
183
184When such an event happens, C<keep> will automatically trigger a
185reevaluation of the whole expression with the new value of the expression.
186
187C<keep> is most useful for expensive operations, such as C<blur>:
188
189 rootalign keep { blur 20, root }
190
191This makes a blurred copy of the root background once, and on subsequent
192calls, just root-aligns it. Since C<blur> is usually quite slow and
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).
196
197=head3 C<load> caching
198
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.

211
212=head2 COMMAND LINE SWITCHES
213
214=over 4
215
216=item --background-expr perl-expression
217
218Specifies the Perl expression to evaluate.
219
220=item --background-border
221
222By default, the expression creates an image that fills the full window,
223overwriting borders and any other areas, such as the scrollbar.
224
225Specifying this flag changes the behaviour, so that the image only
226replaces the background of the character area.
227
228=item --background-interval seconds
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
235interval with this switch.

150The following operators modify the image pixels in various ways. 466The following functions provide variable data such as the terminal window
467dimensions. They are not (Perl-) variables, they just return stuff that
468varies. Most of them make your expression sensitive to some events, for
469example using C<TW> (terminal width) means your expression is evaluated
470again when the terminal is resized.

479window is the full window by default, and the character area only when in
480border-respect mode).
159 481
482Using these functions make your expression sensitive to window moves.
483
484These functions are mainly useful to align images to the root window.
485
486Example: load an image and align it so it looks as if anchored to the
487background (that's exactly what C<rootalign> does btw.):
488
489 move -TX, -TY, keep { load "mybg.png" }
490
491=item TW
492
493Return the width (C<TW>) and height (C<TH>) of the terminal window (the
494terminal window is the full window by default, and the character area only
495when in border-respect mode).
496
497Using these functions make your expression sensitive to window resizes.
498
499These functions are mainly useful to scale images, or to clip images to
500the window size to conserve memory.
501
502Example: take the screen background, clip it to the window size, blur it a
503bit, align it to the window position and use it as background.

610Fits the image into the given C<$width> and C<$height> without changing

612the whole image fits into the given area, possibly leaving borders.

651=item move $dx, $dy, $img
652
653Moves the image by C<$dx> pixels in the horizontal, and C<$dy> pixels in
654the vertical.
655
656Example: move the image right by 20 pixels and down by 30.
657
658 move 20, 30, ...
659
660=item align $xalign, $yalign, $img
661
662Aligns the image according to a factor - C<0> means the image is moved to
663the left or top edge (for C<$xalign> or C<$yalign>), C<0.5> means it is
664exactly centered and C<1> means it touches the right or bottom edge.
665
666Example: remove any visible border around an image, center it vertically but move
667it to the right hand side.
668
669 align 1, 0.5, pad $img
670
671=item center $img
672
673=item center $width, $height, $img
674
675Centers the image, i.e. the center of the image is moved to the center of
676the terminal window (or the box specified by C<$width> and C<$height> if
677given).
678
679Example: load an image and center it.
680
681 center keep { pad load "mybg.png" }
682
683=item rootalign $img
684
685Moves the image so that it appears glued to the screen as opposed to the
686window. This gives the illusion of a larger area behind the window. It is
687exactly equivalent to C<move -TX, -TY>, that is, it moves the image to the
688top left of the screen.
689
690Example: load a background image, put it in mirror mode and root align it.
691
692 rootalign keep { mirror load "mybg.png" }
693
694Example: take the screen background and align it, giving the illusion of
695transparency as long as the window isn't in front of other windows.

774
775=item contrast $r, $g, $b, $img
776
777=item contrast $r, $g, $b, $a, $img
778
779Adjusts the I<contrast> of an image.
780
781The first form applies a single C<$factor> to red, green and blue, the
782second form applies separate factors to each colour channel, and the last
783form includes the alpha channel.
784
785Values from 0 to 1 lower the contrast, values higher than 1 increase the
786contrast.
787
788Due to limitations in the underlying XRender extension, lowering contrast
789also reduces brightness, while increasing contrast currently also
790increases brightness.
791
792=item brightness $bias, $img
793
794=item brightness $r, $g, $b, $img
795
796=item brightness $r, $g, $b, $a, $img
797
798Adjusts the brightness of an image.
799
800The first form applies a single C<$bias> to red, green and blue, the
801second form applies separate biases to each colour channel, and the last
802form includes the alpha channel.
803
804Values less than 0 reduce brightness, while values larger than 0 increase
805it. Useful range is from -1 to 1 - the former results in a black, the
806latter in a white picture.
807
808Due to idiosyncrasies in the underlying XRender extension, biases less
809than zero can be I<very> slow.

840
841Gaussian-blurs the image with (roughly) C<$radius> pixel radius. The radii
842can also be specified separately.
843
844Blurring is often I<very> slow, at least compared or other
845operators. Larger blur radii are slower than smaller ones, too, so if you
846don't want to freeze your screen for long times, start experimenting with
847low values for radius (<5).

858=head2 OTHER STUFF
859
860Anything that didn't fit any of the other categories, even after applying
861force and closing our eyes.
862
863=over 4
864
865=item keep { ... }
866
867This operator takes a code block as argument, that is, one or more
868statements enclosed by braces.
869
870The trick is that this code block is only evaluated when the outcome
871changes - on other calls the C<keep> simply returns the image it computed
872previously (yes, it should only be used with images). Or in other words,
873C<keep> I<caches> the result of the code block so it doesn't need to be
874computed again.
875
876This can be extremely useful to avoid redoing slow operations - for
877example, if your background expression takes the root background, blurs it
878and then root-aligns it it would have to blur the root background on every
879window move or resize.
880
881Another example is C<load>, which can be quite slow.
882
883In fact, urxvt itself encloses the whole expression in some kind of
884C<keep> block so it only is reevaluated as required.
885
886Putting the blur into a C<keep> block will make sure the blur is only done
887once, while the C<rootalign> is still done each time the window moves.
888
889 rootlign keep { blur 10, root }
890
891This leaves the question of how to force reevaluation of the block,
892in case the root background changes: If expression inside the block
893is sensitive to some event (root background changes, window geometry
894changes), then it will be reevaluated automatically as needed.
