15=head2 DESCRIPTION 17=head1 DESCRIPTION
16 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 load "/path/to/mybg.png"'
32
33Or specified as a X resource:
34
35 URxvt.background-expr: scale 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 load "$HOME/mybg.png"> scales the
59image to the window size, so it relies on the window size and will
60be reevaluated each time it is changed, but not when it moves for
61example. That ensures that the picture always fills the terminal, even
62after its size changes.
63
64=head2 EXPRESSIONS
65
66Expressions are normal Perl expressions, in fact, they are Perl blocks -
67which means you could use multiple lines and statements:
68
69 again 3600;
70 if (localtime now)[6]) {
71 return scale load "$HOME/weekday.png";
72 } else {
73 return scale load "$HOME/sunday.png";
74 }
75
76This expression gets evaluated once per hour. It will set F<sunday.png> as
77background on Sundays, and F<weekday.png> on all other days.
78
79Fortunately, we expect that most expressions will be much simpler, with
80little Perl knowledge needed.
81
82Basically, you always start with a function that "generates" an image
83object, such as C<load>, which loads an image from disk, or C<root>, which
84returns the root window background image:
85
86 load "$HOME/mypic.png"
87
88The path is usually specified as a quoted string (the exact rules can be
89found in the L<perlop> manpage). The F<$HOME> at the beginning of the
90string is expanded to the home directory.
91
92Then you prepend one or more modifiers or filtering expressions, such as
93C<scale>:
94
95 scale load "$HOME/mypic.png"
96
97Just like a mathematical expression with functions, you should read these
98expressions from right to left, as the C<load> is evaluated first, and
99its result becomes the argument to the C<scale> function.
100
101Many operators also allow some parameters preceding the input image
102that modify its behaviour. For example, C<scale> without any additional
103arguments scales the image to size of the terminal window. If you specify
104an additional argument, it uses it as a scale factor (multiply by 100 to
105get a percentage):
106
107 scale 2, load "$HOME/mypic.png"
108
109This enlarges the image by a factor of 2 (200%). As you can see, C<scale>
110has now two arguments, the C<200> and the C<load> expression, while
111C<load> only has one argument. Arguments are separated from each other by
112commas.
113
114Scale also accepts two arguments, which are then separate factors for both
115horizontal and vertical dimensions. For example, this halves the image
116width and doubles the image height:
117
118 scale 0.5, 2, load "$HOME/mypic.png"
119
120Other effects than scaling are also readily available, for example, you can
121tile the image to fill the whole window, instead of resizing it:
122
123 tile load "$HOME/mypic.png"
124
125In fact, images returned by C<load> are in C<tile> mode by default, so the C<tile> operator
126is kind of superfluous.
127
128Another common effect is to mirror the image, so that the same edges touch:
129
130 mirror load "$HOME/mypic.png"
131
132This is also a typical background expression:
133
134 rootalign root
135
136It first takes a snapshot of the screen background image, and then
137moves it to the upper left corner of the screen - the result is
138pseudo-transparency, as the image seems to be static while the window is
139moved around.
140
141=head2 CYCLES AND CACHING
142
143As has been mentioned before, the expression might be evaluated multiple
144times. Each time the expression is reevaluated, a new cycle is said to
145have begun. Many operators cache their results till the next cycle.
146
147For example, the C<load> operator keeps a copy of the image. If it is
148asked to load the same image on the next cycle it will not load it again,
149but return the cached copy.
150
151This only works for one cycle though, so as long as you load the same
152image every time, it will always be cached, but when you load a different
153image, it will forget about the first one.
154
155This allows you to either speed things up by keeping multiple images in
156memory, or conserve memory by loading images more often.
157
158For example, you can keep two images in memory and use a random one like
159this:
160
161 my $img1 = load "img1.png";
162 my $img2 = load "img2.png";
163 (0.5 > rand) ? $img1 : $img2
164
165Since both images are "loaded" every time the expression is evaluated,
166they are always kept in memory. Contrast this version:
167
168 my $path1 = "img1.png";
169 my $path2 = "img2.png";
170 load ((0.5 > rand) ? $path1 : $path2)
171
172Here, a path is selected randomly, and load is only called for one image,
173so keeps only one image in memory. If, on the next evaluation, luck
174decides to use the other path, then it will have to load that image again.

183
184Specifies the Perl expression to evaluate.
185
186=item --background-border
187
188By default, the expression creates an image that fills the full window,
189overwriting borders and any other areas, such as the scrollbar.
190
191Specifying this flag changes the behaviour, so that the image only
192replaces the background of the character area.
193
194=item --background-interval seconds
195
196Since some operations in the underlying XRender extension can effectively
197freeze your X-server for prolonged time, this extension enforces a minimum
198time between updates, which is normally about 0.1 seconds.
199
200If you want to do updates more often, you can decrease this safety
201interval with this switch.

290=head2 TILING MODES
291
292The following operators modify the tiling mode of an image, that is, the
293way that pixels outside the image area are painted when the image is used.
294
295=over 4
296
297=item tile $img
298
299Tiles the whole plane with the image and returns this new image - or in
300other words, it returns a copy of the image in plane tiling mode.
301
302Example: load an image and tile it over the background, without
303resizing. The C<tile> call is superfluous because C<load> already defaults
304to tiling mode.
305
306 tile load "mybg.png"
307
308=item mirror $img
309
310Similar to tile, but reflects the image each time it uses a new copy, so
311that top edges always touch top edges, right edges always touch right
312edges and so on (with normal tiling, left edges always touch right edges
313and top always touch bottom edges).
314
315Example: load an image and mirror it over the background, avoiding sharp
316edges at the image borders at the expense of mirroring the image itself

319
320=item pad $img
321
322Takes an image and modifies it so that all pixels outside the image area
323become transparent. This mode is most useful when you want to place an
324image over another image or the background colour while leaving all
325background pixels outside the image unchanged.
326
327Example: load an image and display it in the upper left corner. The rest
328of the space is left "empty" (transparent or whatever your compositor does
329in alpha mode, else background colour).
330
331 pad load "mybg.png"
332
333=item extend $img
334
335Extends the image over the whole plane, using the closest pixel in the
336area outside the image. This mode is mostly useful when you use more complex
337filtering operations and want the pixels outside the image to have the
338same values as the pixels near the edge.

558=item move $dx, $dy, $img
559
560Moves the image by C<$dx> pixels in the horizontal, and C<$dy> pixels in
561the vertical.
562
563Example: move the image right by 20 pixels and down by 30.
564
565 move 20, 30, ...
566
567=item align $xalign, $yalign, $img
568
569Aligns the image according to a factor - C<0> means the image is moved to
570the left or top edge (for C<$xalign> or C<$yalign>), C<0.5> means it is
571exactly centered and C<1> means it touches the right or bottom edge.
572
573Example: remove any visible border around an image, center it vertically but move
574it to the right hand side.
575
576 align 1, 0.5, pad $img
577
578=item center $img
579
580=item center $width, $height, $img
581
582Centers the image, i.e. the center of the image is moved to the center of
583the terminal window (or the box specified by C<$width> and C<$height> if
584given).
585
586Example: load an image and center it.
587
588 center pad load "mybg.png"
589
590=item rootalign $img
591
592Moves the image so that it appears glued to the screen as opposed to the
593window. This gives the illusion of a larger area behind the window. It is
594exactly equivalent to C<move -TX, -TY>, that is, it moves the image to the
595top left of the screen.
596
597Example: load a background image, put it in mirror mode and root align it.
598
599 rootalign mirror load "mybg.png"
600
601Example: take the screen background and align it, giving the illusion of
602transparency as long as the window isn't in front of other windows.

636Rotates the image by C<$degrees> degrees, counter-clockwise, around the
637pointer at C<$center_x> and C<$center_y> (specified as factor of image
638width/height), generating a new image with width C<$new_width> and height

665
666=item contrast $factor, $img
667
668=item contrast $r, $g, $b, $img
669
670=item contrast $r, $g, $b, $a, $img
671
672Adjusts the I<contrast> of an image.
673
674The first form applies a single C<$factor> to red, green and blue, the
675second form applies separate factors to each colour channel, and the last
676form includes the alpha channel.
677
678Values from 0 to 1 lower the contrast, values higher than 1 increase the
679contrast.
680
681Due to limitations in the underlying XRender extension, lowering contrast
682also reduces brightness, while increasing contrast currently also
683increases brightness.
684
685=item brightness $bias, $img
686
687=item brightness $r, $g, $b, $img
688
689=item brightness $r, $g, $b, $a, $img
690
691Adjusts the brightness of an image.
692
693The first form applies a single C<$bias> to red, green and blue, the
694second form applies separate biases to each colour channel, and the last
695form includes the alpha channel.
696
697Values less than 0 reduce brightness, while values larger than 0 increase
698it. Useful range is from -1 to 1 - the former results in a black, the
699latter in a white picture.
700
701Due to idiosyncrasies in the underlying XRender extension, biases less
702than zero can be I<very> slow.

730=item blur $radius, $img

732=item blur $radius_horz, $radius_vert, $img
733
734Gaussian-blurs the image with (roughly) C<$radius> pixel radius. The radii
735can also be specified separately.
736
737Blurring is often I<very> slow, at least compared or other
738operators. Larger blur radii are slower than smaller ones, too, so if you
739don't want to freeze your screen for long times, start experimenting with
740low values for radius (<5).

757
758=item once { ... }
759
760This function takes a code block as argument, that is, one or more
761statements enclosed by braces.
762
763The trick is that this code block is only evaluated once - future calls
764will simply return the original image (yes, it should only be used with
765images).
766
767This can be extremely useful to avoid redoign the same slow operations
768again and again- for example, if your background expression takes the root
769background, blurs it and then root-aligns it it would have to blur the
770root background on every window move or resize.
771
772Putting the blur into a C<once> block will make sure the blur is only done
773once:
774
775 rootlign once { blur 10, root }
776
777This leaves the question of how to force reevaluation of the block, in
778case the root background changes: Right now, all once blocks forget that
779they ahve been executed before each time the root background changes (if
780the expression is sensitive to that) or when C<once_again> is called.
781
782=item once_again
783
784Resets all C<once> block as if they had never been called, i.e. on the
785next call they will be reevaluated again.
