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 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 "$HOME/sunday.png";
75 }
76 }
77
78This inner expression is evaluated once per hour (and whenever the
79terminal window is resized). It sets F<sunday.png> as background on
80Sundays, and F<weekday.png> on all other days.
81
82Fortunately, we expect that most expressions will be much simpler, with
83little Perl knowledge needed.
84
85Basically, you always start with a function that "generates" an image
86object, such as C<load>, which loads an image from disk, or C<root>, which
87returns the root window background image:
88
89 load "$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 again
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 COLOUR SPECIFICATIONS
163
164Whenever an operator expects a "colour", then this can be specified in one
165of two ways: Either as string with an X11 colour specification, such as:
166
167 "red" # named colour
168 "#f00" # simple rgb
169 "[50]red" # red with 50% alpha
170 "TekHVC:300/50/50" # anything goes
171
172OR as an array reference with one, three or four components:
173
174 [0.5] # 50% gray, 100% alpha
175 [0.5, 0, 0] # dark red, no green or blur, 100% alpha
176 [0.5, 0, 0, 0.7] # same with explicit 70% alpha
177
178=head2 CACHING AND SENSITIVITY
179
180Since some operations (such as C<load> and C<blur>) can take a long time,
181caching results can be very important for a smooth operation. Caching can
182also be useful to reduce memory usage, though, for example, when an image
183is cached by C<load>, it could be shared by multiple terminal windows
184running inside urxvtd.
185
186=head3 C<keep { ... }> caching
187
188The most important way to cache expensive operations is to use C<keep {
189... }>. The C<keep> operator takes a block of multiple statements enclosed
190by C<{}> and keeps the return value in memory.
191
192An expression can be "sensitive" to various external events, such as
193scaling or moving the window, root background changes and timers. Simply
194using an expression (such as C<scale> without parameters) that depends on
195certain changing values (called "variables"), or using those variables
196directly, will make an expression sensitive to these events - for example,
197using C<scale> or C<TW> will make the expression sensitive to the terminal
198size, and thus to resizing events.
199
200When such an event happens, C<keep> will automatically trigger a
201reevaluation of the whole expression with the new value of the expression.
202
203C<keep> is most useful for expensive operations, such as C<blur>:
204
205 rootalign keep { blur 20, root }
206
207This makes a blurred copy of the root background once, and on subsequent
208calls, just root-aligns it. Since C<blur> is usually quite slow and
209C<rootalign> is quite fast, this trades extra memory (for the cached
210blurred pixmap) with speed (blur only needs to be redone when root
211changes).
212
213=head3 C<load> caching
214
215The C<load> operator itself does not keep images in memory, but as long as
216the image is still in memory, C<load> will use the in-memory image instead
217of loading it freshly from disk.
218
219That means that this expression:
220
221 keep { load "$HOME/path..." }
222
223Not only caches the image in memory, other terminal instances that try to
224C<load> it can reuse that in-memory copy.

233
234Specifies the Perl expression to evaluate.
235
236=item --background-border
237
238By default, the expression creates an image that fills the full window,
239overwriting borders and any other areas, such as the scrollbar.
240
241Specifying this flag changes the behaviour, so that the image only
242replaces the background of the character area.
243
244=item --background-interval seconds
245
246Since some operations in the underlying XRender extension can effectively
247freeze your X-server for prolonged time, this extension enforces a minimum
248time between updates, which is normally about 0.1 seconds.
249
250If you want to do updates more often, you can decrease this safety
251interval with this switch.

104 352
105The following functions provide variable data such as the terminal
106window dimensions. Most of them make your expression sensitive to some
107events, for example using C<TW> (terminal width) means your expression is
108evaluated again when the terminal is resized.

111
112=item TX

115
116Return the X and Y coordinates of the terminal window (the terminal
117window is the full window by default, and the character area only when in
118border-respect mode).
119
120Using these functions make your expression sensitive to window moves.
121
122These functions are mainly useful to align images to the root window.
123
124Example: load an image and align it so it looks as if anchored to the
125background.
126
127 move -TX, -TY, load "mybg.png"
128
129=item TW
130
131Return the width (C<TW>) and height (C<TH>) of the terminal window (the
132terminal window is the full window by default, and the character area only
133when in border-respect mode).
134
135Using these functions make your expression sensitive to window resizes.
136
137These functions are mainly useful to scale images, or to clip images to
138the window size to conserve memory.
139
140Example: take the screen background, clip it to the window size, blur it a
141bit, align it to the window position and use it as background.
142
143 clip move -TX, -TY, blur 5, root

151
152=item now
153
154Returns the current time as (fractional) seconds since the epoch.
155
156Using this expression does I<not> make your expression sensitive to time,
157but the next two functions do.
158
159=item again $seconds
160
161When this function is used the expression will be reevaluated again in
162C<$seconds> seconds.
163
164Example: load some image and rotate it according to the time of day (as if it were
165the hour pointer of a clock). update this image every minute.
166

271=head2 PIXEL OPERATORS 485=head2 VARIABLE VALUES
272 486
273The following operators modify the image pixels in various ways. 487The following functions provide variable data such as the terminal window
488dimensions. They are not (Perl-) variables, they just return stuff that
489varies. Most of them make your expression sensitive to some events, for
490example using C<TW> (terminal width) means your expression is evaluated
491again when the terminal is resized.
274 492
275=over 4 493=over 4
276 494
277=item clone $img 495=item TX
278 496
279Returns an exact copy of the image. 497=item TY
280 498
281=cut 499Return the X and Y coordinates of the terminal window (the terminal
500window is the full window by default, and the character area only when in
501border-respect mode).
282 502
503Using these functions make your expression sensitive to window moves.
504
505These functions are mainly useful to align images to the root window.
506
507Example: load an image and align it so it looks as if anchored to the
508background (that's exactly what C<rootalign> does btw.):
509
510 move -TX, -TY, keep { load "mybg.png" }
511
512=item TW
513
514Return the width (C<TW>) and height (C<TH>) of the terminal window (the
515terminal window is the full window by default, and the character area only
516when in border-respect mode).
517
518Using these functions make your expression sensitive to window resizes.
519
520These functions are mainly useful to scale images, or to clip images to
521the window size to conserve memory.
522
523Example: take the screen background, clip it to the window size, blur it a
524bit, align it to the window position and use it as background.
525
526 clip move -TX, -TY, keep { blur 5, root }

533 sub TH() { $frame->[FR_AGAIN]{size} = 1; $h }
534
535=item now
536
537Returns the current time as (fractional) seconds since the epoch.
538
539Using this expression does I<not> make your expression sensitive to time,
540but the next two functions do.
541
542=item again $seconds
543
544When this function is used the expression will be reevaluated again in
545C<$seconds> seconds.
546
547Example: load some image and rotate it according to the time of day (as if it were
548the hour pointer of a clock). Update this image every minute.
549
550 again 60;
551 rotate 50, 50, (now % 86400) * -72 / 8640, scale keep { load "myclock.png" }
552
553=item counter $seconds
554
555Like C<again>, but also returns an increasing counter value, starting at
5560, which might be useful for some simple animation effects.

673
674Moves the image by C<$dx> pixels in the horizontal, and C<$dy> pixels in

681=item align $xalign, $yalign, $img
682
683Aligns the image according to a factor - C<0> means the image is moved to
684the left or top edge (for C<$xalign> or C<$yalign>), C<0.5> means it is
685exactly centered and C<1> means it touches the right or bottom edge.
686
687Example: remove any visible border around an image, center it vertically but move

690 align 1, 0.5, pad $img
691
692=item center $img

694=item center $width, $height, $img
695
696Centers the image, i.e. the center of the image is moved to the center of
697the terminal window (or the box specified by C<$width> and C<$height> if
698given).
699
700Example: load an image and center it.
701
702 center keep { pad load "mybg.png" }
703
704=item rootalign $img
705
706Moves the image so that it appears glued to the screen as opposed to the
707window. This gives the illusion of a larger area behind the window. It is
708exactly equivalent to C<move -TX, -TY>, that is, it moves the image to the
709top left of the screen.
710
711Example: load a background image, put it in mirror mode and root align it.
712
713 rootalign keep { mirror load "mybg.png" }
714
715Example: take the screen background and align it, giving the illusion of
716transparency as long as the window isn't in front of other windows.

800Adjusts the I<contrast> of an image.
801
802The first form applies a single C<$factor> to red, green and blue, the
803second form applies separate factors to each colour channel, and the last
804form includes the alpha channel.
805
806Values from 0 to 1 lower the contrast, values higher than 1 increase the
807contrast.
808
809Due to limitations in the underlying XRender extension, lowering contrast
810also reduces brightness, while increasing contrast currently also
811increases brightness.

821The first form applies a single C<$bias> to red, green and blue, the
822second form applies separate biases to each colour channel, and the last
823form includes the alpha channel.
824
825Values less than 0 reduce brightness, while values larger than 0 increase
826it. Useful range is from -1 to 1 - the former results in a black, the
827latter in a white picture.
828
829Due to idiosyncrasies in the underlying XRender extension, biases less
830than zero can be I<very> slow.

880
881Anything that didn't fit any of the other categories, even after applying
882force and closing our eyes.
883
884=over 4
885
886=item keep { ... }
887
888This operator takes a code block as argument, that is, one or more
889statements enclosed by braces.
890
891The trick is that this code block is only evaluated when the outcome
892changes - on other calls the C<keep> simply returns the image it computed
893previously (yes, it should only be used with images). Or in other words,
894C<keep> I<caches> the result of the code block so it doesn't need to be
895computed again.
896
897This can be extremely useful to avoid redoing slow operations - for
898example, if your background expression takes the root background, blurs it
899and then root-aligns it it would have to blur the root background on every
900window move or resize.
901
902Another example is C<load>, which can be quite slow.
903
904In fact, urxvt itself encloses the whole expression in some kind of
905C<keep> block so it only is reevaluated as required.
906
907Putting the blur into a C<keep> block will make sure the blur is only done
908once, while the C<rootalign> is still done each time the window moves.
909
910 rootalign keep { blur 10, root }
911
912This leaves the question of how to force reevaluation of the block,
913in case the root background changes: If expression inside the block
914is sensitive to some event (root background changes, window geometry
915changes), then it will be reevaluated automatically as needed.
