17=head1 QUICK AND DIRTY CHEAT SHEET
18
19Just load a random jpeg image and tile the background with it without
20scaling or anything else:
21
22 load "/path/to/img.jpg"
23
24The same, but use mirroring/reflection instead of tiling:
25
26 mirror load "/path/to/img.jpg"
27
28Load an image and scale it to exactly fill the terminal window:
29
30 scale keep { load "/path/to/img.jpg" }
31
32Implement pseudo-transparency by using a suitably-aligned root pixmap
33as window background:
34
35 rootalign root
36
37Likewise, but keep a blurred copy:
38
39 rootalign keep { blur 10, root }

15=head2 DESCRIPTION 41=head1 DESCRIPTION
16 42
43This extension manages the terminal background by creating a picture that
44is behind the text, replacing the normal background colour.
45
46It does so by evaluating a Perl expression that I<calculates> the image on
47the fly, for example, by grabbing the root background or loading a file.
48
49While the full power of Perl is available, the operators have been design
50to be as simple as possible.
51
52For example, to load an image and scale it to the window size, you would
53use:
54
55 urxvt --background-expr 'scale keep { load "/path/to/mybg.png" }'
56
57Or specified as a X resource:
58
59 URxvt.background-expr: scale keep { load "/path/to/mybg.png" }
60
61=head1 THEORY OF OPERATION
62
63At startup, just before the window is mapped for the first time, the
64expression is evaluated and must yield an image. The image is then
65extended as necessary to cover the whole terminal window, and is set as a
66background pixmap.
67
68If the image contains an alpha channel, then it will be used as-is in
69visuals that support alpha channels (for example, for a compositing
70manager). In other visuals, the terminal background colour will be used to
71replace any transparency.
72
73When the expression relies, directly or indirectly, on the window size,
74position, the root pixmap, or a timer, then it will be remembered. If not,
75then it will be removed.
76
77If any of the parameters that the expression relies on changes (when the
78window is moved or resized, its position or size changes; when the root
79pixmap is replaced by another one the root background changes; or when the
80timer elapses), then the expression will be evaluated again.
81
82For example, an expression such as C<scale keep { load "$HOME/mybg.png"
83}> scales the image to the window size, so it relies on the window size
84and will be reevaluated each time it is changed, but not when it moves for
85example. That ensures that the picture always fills the terminal, even
86after its size changes.
87
88=head2 EXPRESSIONS
89
90Expressions are normal Perl expressions, in fact, they are Perl blocks -
91which means you could use multiple lines and statements:
92
93 scale keep {
94 again 3600;
95 if (localtime now)[6]) {
96 return load "$HOME/weekday.png";
97 } else {
98 return load "$HOME/sunday.png";
99 }
100 }
101
102This inner expression is evaluated once per hour (and whenever the
103terminal window is resized). It sets F<sunday.png> as background on
104Sundays, and F<weekday.png> on all other days.
105
106Fortunately, we expect that most expressions will be much simpler, with
107little Perl knowledge needed.
108
109Basically, you always start with a function that "generates" an image
110object, such as C<load>, which loads an image from disk, or C<root>, which
111returns the root window background image:
112
113 load "$HOME/mypic.png"
114
115The path is usually specified as a quoted string (the exact rules can be
116found in the L<perlop> manpage). The F<$HOME> at the beginning of the
117string is expanded to the home directory.
118
119Then you prepend one or more modifiers or filtering expressions, such as
120C<scale>:
121
122 scale load "$HOME/mypic.png"
123
124Just like a mathematical expression with functions, you should read these
125expressions from right to left, as the C<load> is evaluated first, and
126its result becomes the argument to the C<scale> function.
127
128Many operators also allow some parameters preceding the input image
129that modify its behaviour. For example, C<scale> without any additional
130arguments scales the image to size of the terminal window. If you specify
131an additional argument, it uses it as a scale factor (multiply by 100 to
132get a percentage):
133
134 scale 2, load "$HOME/mypic.png"
135
136This enlarges the image by a factor of 2 (200%). As you can see, C<scale>
137has now two arguments, the C<200> and the C<load> expression, while
138C<load> only has one argument. Arguments are separated from each other by
139commas.
140
141Scale also accepts two arguments, which are then separate factors for both
142horizontal and vertical dimensions. For example, this halves the image
143width and doubles the image height:
144
145 scale 0.5, 2, load "$HOME/mypic.png"
146
147IF you try out these expressions, you might suffer from some sluggishness,
148because each time the terminal is resized, it loads the PNG image again
149and scales it. Scaling is usually fast (and unavoidable), but loading the
150image can be quite time consuming. This is where C<keep> comes in handy:
151
152 scale 0.5, 2, keep { load "$HOME/mypic.png" }
153
154The C<keep> operator executes all the statements inside the braces only
155once, or when it thinks the outcome might change. In other cases it
156returns the last value computed by the brace block.
157
158This means that the C<load> is only executed once, which makes it much
159faster, but also means that more memory is being used, because the loaded
160image must be kept in memory at all times. In this expression, the
161trade-off is likely worth it.
162
163But back to effects: Other effects than scaling are also readily
164available, for example, you can tile the image to fill the whole window,
165instead of resizing it:
166
167 tile keep { load "$HOME/mypic.png" }
168
169In fact, images returned by C<load> are in C<tile> mode by default, so the
170C<tile> operator is kind of superfluous.
171
172Another common effect is to mirror the image, so that the same edges
173touch:
174
175 mirror keep { load "$HOME/mypic.png" }
176
177Another common background expression is:
178
179 rootalign root
180
181This one first takes a snapshot of the screen background image, and then
182moves it to the upper left corner of the screen (as opposed to the upper
183left corner of the terminal window)- the result is pseudo-transparency:
184the image seems to be static while the window is moved around.
185
186=head2 COLOUR SPECIFICATIONS
187
188Whenever an operator expects a "colour", then this can be specified in one
189of two ways: Either as string with an X11 colour specification, such as:
190
191 "red" # named colour
192 "#f00" # simple rgb
193 "[50]red" # red with 50% alpha
194 "TekHVC:300/50/50" # anything goes
195
196OR as an array reference with one, three or four components:
197
198 [0.5] # 50% gray, 100% alpha
199 [0.5, 0, 0] # dark red, no green or blur, 100% alpha
200 [0.5, 0, 0, 0.7] # same with explicit 70% alpha
201
202=head2 CACHING AND SENSITIVITY
203
204Since some operations (such as C<load> and C<blur>) can take a long time,
205caching results can be very important for a smooth operation. Caching can
206also be useful to reduce memory usage, though, for example, when an image
207is cached by C<load>, it could be shared by multiple terminal windows
208running inside urxvtd.
209
210=head3 C<keep { ... }> caching
211
212The most important way to cache expensive operations is to use C<keep {
213... }>. The C<keep> operator takes a block of multiple statements enclosed
214by C<{}> and keeps the return value in memory.
215
216An expression can be "sensitive" to various external events, such as
217scaling or moving the window, root background changes and timers. Simply
218using an expression (such as C<scale> without parameters) that depends on
219certain changing values (called "variables"), or using those variables
220directly, will make an expression sensitive to these events - for example,
221using C<scale> or C<TW> will make the expression sensitive to the terminal
222size, and thus to resizing events.
223
224When such an event happens, C<keep> will automatically trigger a
225reevaluation of the whole expression with the new value of the expression.
226
227C<keep> is most useful for expensive operations, such as C<blur>:
228
229 rootalign keep { blur 20, root }
230
231This makes a blurred copy of the root background once, and on subsequent
232calls, just root-aligns it. Since C<blur> is usually quite slow and
233C<rootalign> is quite fast, this trades extra memory (for the cached
234blurred pixmap) with speed (blur only needs to be redone when root
235changes).
236
237=head3 C<load> caching
238
239The C<load> operator itself does not keep images in memory, but as long as
240the image is still in memory, C<load> will use the in-memory image instead
241of loading it freshly from disk.
242
243That means that this expression:
244
245 keep { load "$HOME/path..." }
246
247Not only caches the image in memory, other terminal instances that try to
248C<load> it can reuse that in-memory copy.

257
258Specifies the Perl expression to evaluate.
259
260=item --background-border
261
262By default, the expression creates an image that fills the full window,
263overwriting borders and any other areas, such as the scrollbar.
264
265Specifying this flag changes the behaviour, so that the image only
266replaces the background of the character area.
267
268=item --background-interval seconds
269
270Since some operations in the underlying XRender extension can effectively
271freeze your X-server for prolonged time, this extension enforces a minimum
272time between updates, which is normally about 0.1 seconds.
273
274If you want to do updates more often, you can decrease this safety
275interval with this switch.

104 376
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.

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.

151

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 509=head2 VARIABLE VALUES
272 510
273The following operators modify the image pixels in various ways. 511The following functions provide variable data such as the terminal window
512dimensions. They are not (Perl-) variables, they just return stuff that
513varies. Most of them make your expression sensitive to some events, for
514example using C<TW> (terminal width) means your expression is evaluated
515again when the terminal is resized.
274 516
275=over 4 517=over 4
276 518
277=item clone $img 519=item TX
278 520
279Returns an exact copy of the image. 521=item TY
280 522
281=cut 523Return the X and Y coordinates of the terminal window (the terminal
524window is the full window by default, and the character area only when in
525border-respect mode).
282 526
527Using these functions make your expression sensitive to window moves.
528
529These functions are mainly useful to align images to the root window.
530
531Example: load an image and align it so it looks as if anchored to the
532background (that's exactly what C<rootalign> does btw.):
533
534 move -TX, -TY, keep { load "mybg.png" }
535
536=item TW
537
538Return the width (C<TW>) and height (C<TH>) of the terminal window (the
539terminal window is the full window by default, and the character area only
540when in border-respect mode).
541
542Using these functions make your expression sensitive to window resizes.
543
544These functions are mainly useful to scale images, or to clip images to
545the window size to conserve memory.
546
547Example: take the screen background, clip it to the window size, blur it a
548bit, align it to the window position and use it as background.
549
550 clip move -TX, -TY, keep { blur 5, root }

557 sub TH() { $frame->[FR_AGAIN]{size} = 1; $h }
558
559=item now
560
561Returns the current time as (fractional) seconds since the epoch.
562
563Using this expression does I<not> make your expression sensitive to time,
564but the next two functions do.
565
566=item again $seconds
567
568When this function is used the expression will be reevaluated again in
569C<$seconds> seconds.
570
571Example: load some image and rotate it according to the time of day (as if it were
572the hour pointer of a clock). Update this image every minute.
573
574 again 60;
575 rotate 50, 50, (now % 86400) * -72 / 8640, scale keep { load "myclock.png" }
576
577=item counter $seconds
578
579Like C<again>, but also returns an increasing counter value, starting at

707Aligns the image according to a factor - C<0> means the image is moved to
708the left or top edge (for C<$xalign> or C<$yalign>), C<0.5> means it is
709exactly centered and C<1> means it touches the right or bottom edge.
710

724Example: load an image and center it.
725

727
728=item rootalign $img
729
730Moves the image so that it appears glued to the screen as opposed to the
731window. This gives the illusion of a larger area behind the window. It is
732exactly equivalent to C<move -TX, -TY>, that is, it moves the image to the
733top left of the screen.
734
735Example: load a background image, put it in mirror mode and root align it.
736
737 rootalign keep { mirror load "mybg.png" }

820=item contrast $r, $g, $b, $img
821
822=item contrast $r, $g, $b, $a, $img
823
824Adjusts the I<contrast> of an image.
825
826The first form applies a single C<$factor> to red, green and blue, the
827second form applies separate factors to each colour channel, and the last
828form includes the alpha channel.
829
830Values from 0 to 1 lower the contrast, values higher than 1 increase the
831contrast.
832
833Due to limitations in the underlying XRender extension, lowering contrast
834also reduces brightness, while increasing contrast currently also
835increases brightness.

839=item brightness $r, $g, $b, $img
840
841=item brightness $r, $g, $b, $a, $img
842
843Adjusts the brightness of an image.
844
845The first form applies a single C<$bias> to red, green and blue, the
846second form applies separate biases to each colour channel, and the last
847form includes the alpha channel.
848
849Values less than 0 reduce brightness, while values larger than 0 increase
850it. Useful range is from -1 to 1 - the former results in a black, the
851latter in a white picture.
852
853Due to idiosyncrasies in the underlying XRender extension, biases less
854than zero can be I<very> slow.

887to implement brightness and contrast at the same time, with a wider value
888range than contrast and brightness operators.
889
890Due to numerous bugs in XRender implementations, it can also introduce a
891number of visual artifacts.
892

911Blurring is often I<very> slow, at least compared or other

925=head2 OTHER STUFF
926
927Anything that didn't fit any of the other categories, even after applying
928force and closing our eyes.
929
930=over 4
931
932=item keep { ... }
933
934This operator takes a code block as argument, that is, one or more
935statements enclosed by braces.
936
937The trick is that this code block is only evaluated when the outcome
938changes - on other calls the C<keep> simply returns the image it computed
939previously (yes, it should only be used with images). Or in other words,
940C<keep> I<caches> the result of the code block so it doesn't need to be
941computed again.
942
943This can be extremely useful to avoid redoing slow operations - for
944example, if your background expression takes the root background, blurs it
945and then root-aligns it it would have to blur the root background on every
946window move or resize.
947
948Another example is C<load>, which can be quite slow.
949
950In fact, urxvt itself encloses the whole expression in some kind of
951C<keep> block so it only is reevaluated as required.
952
953Putting the blur into a C<keep> block will make sure the blur is only done
954once, while the C<rootalign> is still done each time the window moves.
955
956 rootalign keep { blur 10, root }
957
958This leaves the question of how to force reevaluation of the block,
959in case the root background changes: If expression inside the block
960is sensitive to some event (root background changes, window geometry
961changes), then it will be reevaluated automatically as needed.
