101arguments scales the image to size of the terminal window. If you specify 106arguments scales the image to size of the terminal window. If you specify
102an additional argument, it uses it as a percentage: 107an additional argument, it uses it as a scale factor (multiply by 100 to
108get a percentage):
103 109
104 scale 200, load "$HOME/mypic.png" 110 scale 2, load "$HOME/mypic.png"
105 111
106This enlarges the image by a factor of 2 (200%). As you can see, C<scale> 112This enlarges the image by a factor of 2 (200%). As you can see, C<scale>

113width and doubles the image height: 119width and doubles the image height:
114 120
115 scale 50, 200, load "$HOME/mypic.png" 121 scale 0.5, 2, load "$HOME/mypic.png"
116 122
117TODO 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:
118 127
119=head3 CYCLES AND CACHING 128 scale 0.5, 2, keep { load "$HOME/mypic.png" }
120 129
121TODO 130The C<keep> operator executes all the statements inside the braces only
131once, or when it thinks the outcome might change. In other cases it
132returns the last value computed by the brace block.
122 133
123Each time the expression is reevaluated, a new cycle is said to have begun. Many operators 134This means that the C<load> is only executed once, which makes it much
124cache their results till the next cycle. For example 135faster, but also means that more memory is being used, because the loaded
136image must be kept in memory at all times. In this expression, the
137trade-off is likely worth it.
125 138
139But back to effects: Other effects than scaling are also readily
140available, for example, you can tile the image to fill the whole window,
141instead of resizing it:
142
143 tile keep { load "$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.

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.

233The following functions provide variable data such as the terminal
234window dimensions. Most of them make your expression sensitive to some

247
248Using these functions make your expression sensitive to window moves.
249
250These functions are mainly useful to align images to the root window.
251
252Example: load an image and align it so it looks as if anchored to the
253background.

259Return the width (C<TW>) and height (C<TH>) of the terminal window (the
260terminal window is the full window by default, and the character area only
261when in border-respect mode).
262
263Using these functions make your expression sensitive to window resizes.
264
265These functions are mainly useful to scale images, or to clip images to
266the window size to conserve memory.
267
268Example: take the screen background, clip it to the window size, blur it a
269bit, align it to the window position and use it as background.

399=head2 PIXEL OPERATORS 464=head2 VARIABLE VALUES
400 465
401The 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.
402 471
403=over 4 472=over 4
404 473
405=item clone $img 474=item TX
406 475
407Returns an exact copy of the image. 476=item TY
408 477
409=cut 478Return the X and Y coordinates of the terminal window (the terminal
479window is the full window by default, and the character area only when in
480border-respect mode).
410 481
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.
504
505 clip move -TX, -TY, keep { blur 5, root }

512 sub TH() { $frame->[FR_AGAIN]{size} = 1; $h }
513
514=item now
515
516Returns the current time as (fractional) seconds since the epoch.
517
518Using this expression does I<not> make your expression sensitive to time,
519but the next two functions do.
520
521=item again $seconds
522
523When this function is used the expression will be reevaluated again in
524C<$seconds> seconds.
525
526Example: load some image and rotate it according to the time of day (as if it were
527the hour pointer of a clock). Update this image every minute.
528
529 again 60;
530 rotate 50, 50, (now % 86400) * -72 / 8640, scale keep { load "myclock.png" }

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.
