11=head1 SYNOPSIS

13 urxvt --background-expr 'background expression'
14 --background-border
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 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 "$HOME/sunday.png";
74 }
75
76This expression is evaluated once per hour. It will set F<sunday.png> as
77background on Sundays, and F<weekday.png> on all other days.
78
79Fortunately, we expect that most expressions will be much simpler, with
80little Perl knowledge needed.
81
82Basically, you always start with a function that "generates" an image
83object, such as C<load>, which loads an image from disk, or C<root>, which
84returns the root window background image:
85
86 load "$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.
175
176=head1 REFERENCE
177
178=head2 COMMAND LINE SWITCHES
179
180=over 4
181
182=item --background-expr perl-expression
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.

222These functions provide an image, by loading it from disk, grabbing it
223from the root screen or by simply generating it. They are used as starting
224points to get an image you can play with.
225
226=over 4
227
228=item load $path
229
230Loads the image at the given C<$path>. The image is set to plane tiling
231mode.
232
233Loaded images will be cached for one cycle, and shared between temrinals
234running in the same process (e.g. in C<urxvtd>).
235
236=item load_uc $path
237
238Load uncached - same as load, but does not cache the image. This function
239is most useufl if you want to optimise a background expression in some
240way.
241

244 sub load_uc($) {
245 my ($path) = @_;

25 } 258 }
259
260=item root
261
262Returns the root window pixmap, that is, hopefully, the background image
263of your screen. The image is set to extend mode.
264
265This function makes your expression root sensitive, that means it will be
266reevaluated when the bg image changes.

273 }
274
275=item solid $colour
276
277=item solid $width, $height, $colour
278
279Creates a new image and completely fills it with the given colour. The
280image is set to tiling mode.
281
282If C<$width> and C<$height> are omitted, it creates a 1x1 image, which is
283useful for solid backgrounds or for use in filtering effects.
284

287 sub solid($;$$) {
288 my $colour = pop;
289
290 my $img = $self->new_img (urxvt::PictStandardARGB32, $_[0] || 1, $_[1] || 1);
291 $img->fill ($colour);
292 $img
293 }
294
295=item clone $img
296
297Returns an exact copy of the image. This is useful if you want to have
298multiple copies of the same image to apply different effects to.

305
306=head2 TILING MODES
307
308The following operators modify the tiling mode of an image, that is, the
309way that pixels outside the image area are painted when the image is used.
310
311=over 4
312
313=item tile $img
314
315Tiles the whole plane with the image and returns this new image - or in
316other words, it returns a copy of the image in plane tiling mode.
317
318Example: load an image and tile it over the background, without
319resizing. The C<tile> call is superfluous because C<load> already defaults
320to tiling mode.
321
322 tile load "mybg.png"
323
324=item mirror $img
325
326Similar to tile, but reflects the image each time it uses a new copy, so
327that top edges always touch top edges, right edges always touch right
328edges and so on (with normal tiling, left edges always touch right edges
329and top always touch bottom edges).
330
331Example: load an image and mirror it over the background, avoiding sharp
332edges at the image borders at the expense of mirroring the image itself
333
334 mirror load "mybg.png"
335
336=item pad $img
337
338Takes an image and modifies it so that all pixels outside the image area
339become transparent. This mode is most useful when you want to place an
340image over another image or the background colour while leaving all
341background pixels outside the image unchanged.
342
343Example: load an image and display it in the upper left corner. The rest
344of the space is left "empty" (transparent or whatever your compositor does
345in alpha mode, else background colour).
346
347 pad load "mybg.png"
348
349=item extend $img
350
351Extends the image over the whole plane, using the closest pixel in the
352area outside the image. This mode is mostly useful when you use more complex
353filtering operations and want the pixels outside the image to have the
354same values as the pixels near the edge.
355
356Example: just for curiosity, how does this pixel extension stuff work?
357
358 extend move 50, 50, load "mybg.png"
359
360=cut
361
362 sub pad($) {
363 my $img = $_[0]->clone;
364 $img->repeat_mode (urxvt::RepeatNone);
365 $img
366 }
367
368 sub tile($) {
369 my $img = $_[0]->clone;
370 $img->repeat_mode (urxvt::RepeatNormal);
371 $img
372 }
373
374 sub mirror($) {
375 my $img = $_[0]->clone;
376 $img->repeat_mode (urxvt::RepeatReflect);
377 $img
378 }
379
380 sub extend($) {
381 my $img = $_[0]->clone;
382 $img->repeat_mode (urxvt::RepeatPad);
383 $img
384 }
385
386=back
387
388=head2 VARIABLE VALUES
389
390The following functions provide variable data such as the terminal window
391dimensions. They are not (Perl-) variables, they just return stuff that
392varies. Most of them make your expression sensitive to some events, for
393example using C<TW> (terminal width) means your expression is evaluated
394again when the terminal is resized.
395
396=over 4
397
398=item TX
399
400=item TY
401
402Return the X and Y coordinates of the terminal window (the terminal
403window is the full window by default, and the character area only when in
404border-respect mode).
405
406Using these functions make your expression sensitive to window moves.
407
408These functions are mainly useful to align images to the root window.
409
410Example: load an image and align it so it looks as if anchored to the
411background.
412
413 move -TX, -TY, load "mybg.png"
414
415=item TW
416
417Return the width (C<TW>) and height (C<TH>) of the terminal window (the
418terminal window is the full window by default, and the character area only
419when in border-respect mode).
420
421Using these functions make your expression sensitive to window resizes.
422
423These functions are mainly useful to scale images, or to clip images to
424the window size to conserve memory.
425
426Example: take the screen background, clip it to the window size, blur it a
427bit, align it to the window position and use it as background.
428
429 clip move -TX, -TY, once { blur 5, root }
430
431=cut
432
433 sub TX() { $new->{again}{position} = 1; $x }
434 sub TY() { $new->{again}{position} = 1; $y }
435 sub TW() { $new->{again}{size} = 1; $w }
436 sub TH() { $new->{again}{size} = 1; $h }
437
438=item now
439
440Returns the current time as (fractional) seconds since the epoch.
441
442Using this expression does I<not> make your expression sensitive to time,
443but the next two functions do.
444
445=item again $seconds
446
447When this function is used the expression will be reevaluated again in
448C<$seconds> seconds.
449
450Example: load some image and rotate it according to the time of day (as if it were
451the hour pointer of a clock). Update this image every minute.
452
453 again 60; rotate 50, 50, (now % 86400) * -720 / 86400, scale load "myclock.png"
454
455=item counter $seconds
456
457Like C<again>, but also returns an increasing counter value, starting at
4580, which might be useful for some simple animation effects.
459
460=cut
461
462 sub now() { urxvt::NOW }
463
464 sub again($) {
465 $new->{again}{time} = $_[0];
466 }
467
468 sub counter($) {
469 $new->{again}{time} = $_[0];
470 $self->{counter} + 0
471 }
472
473=back
474
475=head2 SHAPE CHANGING OPERATORS
476
477The following operators modify the shape, size or position of the image.
478
479=over 4
480
481=item clip $img
482
483=item clip $width, $height, $img
484
485=item clip $x, $y, $width, $height, $img
486
487Clips an image to the given rectangle. If the rectangle is outside the
488image area (e.g. when C<$x> or C<$y> are negative) or the rectangle is
489larger than the image, then the tiling mode defines how the extra pixels
490will be filled.
491
492If C<$x> an C<$y> are missing, then C<0> is assumed for both.
493
494If C<$width> and C<$height> are missing, then the window size will be
495assumed.
496
497Example: load an image, blur it, and clip it to the window size to save
498memory.
499
500 clip blur 10, load "mybg.png"
501
502=cut
503
504 sub clip($;$$;$$) {
505 my $img = pop;
506 my $h = pop || TH;
507 my $w = pop || TW;
508 $img->sub_rect ($_[0], $_[1], $w, $h)
509 }
510
511=item scale $img
512
513=item scale $size_factor, $img
514
515=item scale $width_factor, $height_factor, $img
516
517Scales the image by the given factors in horizontal
518(C<$width>) and vertical (C<$height>) direction.
519
520If only one factor is give, it is used for both directions.
521
522If no factors are given, scales the image to the window size without
523keeping aspect.
524
525=item resize $width, $height, $img
526
527Resizes the image to exactly C<$width> times C<$height> pixels.
528
529=item fit $img
530
531=item fit $width, $height, $img
532
533Fits the image into the given C<$width> and C<$height> without changing
534aspect, or the terminal size. That means it will be shrunk or grown until
535the whole image fits into the given area, possibly leaving borders.
536
537=item cover $img
538
539=item cover $width, $height, $img
540
541Similar to C<fit>, but shrinks or grows until all of the area is covered
542by the image, so instead of potentially leaving borders, it will cut off
543image data that doesn't fit.

571 scale +(max $w, $h), $img
572 }
573
574=item move $dx, $dy, $img
575
576Moves the image by C<$dx> pixels in the horizontal, and C<$dy> pixels in
577the vertical.
578
579Example: move the image right by 20 pixels and down by 30.
580
581 move 20, 30, ...
582
583=item align $xalign, $yalign, $img
584
585Aligns the image according to a factor - C<0> means the image is moved to
586the left or top edge (for C<$xalign> or C<$yalign>), C<0.5> means it is
587exactly centered and C<1> means it touches the right or bottom edge.
588
589Example: remove any visible border around an image, center it vertically but move
590it to the right hand side.
591
592 align 1, 0.5, pad $img
593
594=item center $img
595
596=item center $width, $height, $img

598Centers the image, i.e. the center of the image is moved to the center of
599the terminal window (or the box specified by C<$width> and C<$height> if
600given).
601
602Example: load an image and center it.
603
604 center pad load "mybg.png"

606=item rootalign $img
607
608Moves the image so that it appears glued to the screen as opposed to the
609window. This gives the illusion of a larger area behind the window. It is
610exactly equivalent to C<move -TX, -TY>, that is, it moves the image to the
611top left of the screen.
612
613Example: load a background image, put it in mirror mode and root align it.
614
615 rootalign mirror load "mybg.png"
616
617Example: take the screen background and align it, giving the illusion of
618transparency as long as the window isn't in front of other windows.

685Adjusts the I<contrast> of an image.
686
687The first form applies a single C<$factor> to red, green and blue, the
688second form applies separate factors to each colour channel, and the last
689form includes the alpha channel.
690
691Values from 0 to 1 lower the contrast, values higher than 1 increase the
692contrast.
693
694Due to limitations in the underlying XRender extension, lowering contrast
695also reduces brightness, while increasing contrast currently also
696increases brightness.

710Values less than 0 reduce brightness, while values larger than 0 increase
711it. Useful range is from -1 to 1 - the former results in a black, the
712latter in a white picture.
713
714Due to idiosyncrasies in the underlying XRender extension, biases less

750Blurring is often I<very> slow, at least compared or other
751operators. Larger blur radii are slower than smaller ones, too, so if you

771=item once { ... }
772
773This function takes a code block as argument, that is, one or more
774statements enclosed by braces.
775
776The trick is that this code block is only evaluated once - future calls
777will simply return the original image (yes, it should only be used with
778images).
779
780This can be extremely useful to avoid redoign the same slow operations
781again and again- for example, if your background expression takes the root
782background, blurs it and then root-aligns it it would have to blur the
783root background on every window move or resize.
784
785Putting the blur into a C<once> block will make sure the blur is only done
786once:
787
788 rootlign once { blur 10, root }
789
790This leaves the question of how to force reevaluation of the block, in
791case the root background changes: Right now, all once blocks forget that
792they ahve been executed before each time the root background changes (if
793the expression is sensitive to that) or when C<once_again> is called.
794
795=item once_again
796
