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 "$HOME/sunday.png";
74 }
75
76This expression is evaluated once per hour. It will set F<sunday.png> as
77background on Sundays, and F<weekday.png> on all other days.
78
79Fortunately, we expect that most expressions will be much simpler, with
80little Perl knowledge needed.
81
82Basically, you always start with a function that "generates" an image
83object, such as C<load>, which loads an image from disk, or C<root>, which
84returns the root window background image:
85
86 load "$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.

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.

105The following functions provide variable data such as the terminal

335=cut 539=item fit $img
336 540
337#TODO: maximise, maximise_fill? 541=item fit $width, $height, $img
542
543Fits the image into the given C<$width> and C<$height> without changing
544aspect, or the terminal size. That means it will be shrunk or grown until
545the whole image fits into the given area, possibly leaving borders.
546
547=item cover $img
548
549=item cover $width, $height, $img
550
551Similar to C<fit>, but shrinks or grows until all of the area is covered
552by the image, so instead of potentially leaving borders, it will cut off
553image data that doesn't fit.

585
586Moves the image by C<$dx> pixels in the horizontal, and C<$dy> pixels in
587the vertical.

592
593=item align $xalign, $yalign, $img
594
595Aligns the image according to a factor - C<0> means the image is moved to
596the left or top edge (for C<$xalign> or C<$yalign>), C<0.5> means it is
597exactly centered and C<1> means it touches the right or bottom edge.
598
599Example: remove any visible border around an image, center it vertically but move
600it to the right hand side.
601
602 align 1, 0.5, pad $img
603
604=item center $img
605
606=item center $width, $height, $img
607
608Centers the image, i.e. the center of the image is moved to the center of
609the terminal window (or the box specified by C<$width> and C<$height> if
610given).
611
612Example: load an image and center it.
613
614 center pad load "mybg.png"
615
616=item rootalign $img
617
618Moves the image so that it appears glued to the screen as opposed to the
619window. This gives the illusion of a larger area behind the window. It is
620exactly equivalent to C<move -TX, -TY>, that is, it moves the image to the
621top left of the screen.
622
623Example: load a background image, put it in mirror mode and root align it.
624
625 rootalign mirror load "mybg.png"
626
627Example: take the screen background and align it, giving the illusion of
628transparency as long as the window isn't in front of other windows.

690
691=item contrast $r, $g, $b, $img
692
693=item contrast $r, $g, $b, $a, $img
694
695Adjusts the I<contrast> of an image.
696
697The first form applies a single C<$factor> to red, green and blue, the
698second form applies separate factors to each colour channel, and the last
699form includes the alpha channel.
700
701Values from 0 to 1 lower the contrast, values higher than 1 increase the
702contrast.
703
704Due to limitations in the underlying XRender extension, lowering contrast
705also reduces brightness, while increasing contrast currently also
706increases brightness.
707
708=item brightness $bias, $img
709
710=item brightness $r, $g, $b, $img
711
712=item brightness $r, $g, $b, $a, $img
713
714Adjusts the brightness of an image.
715
716The first form applies a single C<$bias> to red, green and blue, the
717second form applies separate biases to each colour channel, and the last
718form includes the alpha channel.
719
720Values less than 0 reduce brightness, while values larger than 0 increase
721it. Useful range is from -1 to 1 - the former results in a black, the
722latter in a white picture.
723
724Due to idiosyncrasies in the underlying XRender extension, biases less
725than zero can be I<very> slow.

756
757Gaussian-blurs the image with (roughly) C<$radius> pixel radius. The radii
758can also be specified separately.
759
760Blurring is often I<very> slow, at least compared or other
761operators. Larger blur radii are slower than smaller ones, too, so if you
762don't want to freeze your screen for long times, start experimenting with
763low values for radius (<5).

781=item once { ... }
782
783This function takes a code block as argument, that is, one or more
784statements enclosed by braces.
785
786The trick is that this code block is only evaluated once - future calls
787will simply return the original image (yes, it should only be used with
788images).
789
790This can be extremely useful to avoid redoign the same slow operations
791again and again- for example, if your background expression takes the root
792background, blurs it and then root-aligns it it would have to blur the
793root background on every window move or resize.
794
795Putting the blur into a C<once> block will make sure the blur is only done
796once:
797
798 rootlign once { blur 10, root }
799
800This leaves the question of how to force reevaluation of the block, in
801case the root background changes: Right now, all once blocks forget that
802they ahve been executed before each time the root background changes (if
803the expression is sensitive to that) or when C<once_again> is called.
804
805=item once_again
806
807Resets all C<once> block as if they had never been called, i.e. on the
