20     =head1 DESCRIPTION
21    
22 root 1.44 Everytime a terminal object gets created, extension scripts specified via
23     the C<perl> resource are loaded and associated with it.
24 root 1.10
25     Scripts are compiled in a 'use strict' and 'use utf8' environment, and
26     thus must be encoded as UTF-8.
27 root 1.6
28     Each script will only ever be loaded once, even in @@RXVT_NAME@@d, where
29 root 1.16 scripts will be shared (but not enabled) for all terminals.
30 root 1.6
31 root 1.75 =head1 PREPACKAGED EXTENSIONS
32 root 1.15
33 root 1.75 This section describes the extensions delivered with this release. You can
34 root 1.15 find them in F<@@RXVT_LIBDIR@@/urxvt/perl/>.
35    
36     You can activate them like this:
37    
38     @@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe <extensionname>
39    
40 root 1.111 Or by adding them to the resource for extensions loaded by default:
41    
42     URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,automove-background,selection-autotransform
43    
44 root 1.15 =over 4
45    
46 root 1.54 =item selection (enabled by default)
47 root 1.15
48 root 1.75 (More) intelligent selection. This extension tries to be more intelligent
49 root 1.87 when the user extends selections (double-click and further clicks). Right
50     now, it tries to select words, urls and complete shell-quoted
51     arguments, which is very convenient, too, if your F<ls> supports
52     C<--quoting-style=shell>.
53    
54     A double-click usually selects the word under the cursor, further clicks
55     will enlarge the selection.
56 root 1.22
57 root 1.88 The selection works by trying to match a number of regexes and displaying
58     them in increasing order of length. You can add your own regexes by
59     specifying resources of the form:
60    
61     URxvt.selection.pattern-0: perl-regex
62     URxvt.selection.pattern-1: perl-regex
63     ...
64    
65     The index number (0, 1...) must not have any holes, and each regex must
66     contain at least one pair of capturing parentheses, which will be used for
67     the match. For example, the followign adds a regex that matches everything
68     between two vertical bars:
69    
70     URxvt.selection.pattern-0: \\|([^|]+)\\|
71    
72 root 1.126 Another example: Programs I use often output "absolute path: " at the
73     beginning of a line when they process multiple files. The following
74     pattern matches the filename (note, there is a single space at the very
75     end):
76    
77     URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ^(/[^:]+):\
78    
79 root 1.88 You can look at the source of the selection extension to see more
80     interesting uses, such as parsing a line from beginning to end.
81    
82 elmex 1.95 This extension also offers following bindable keyboard commands:
83 root 1.15
84     =over 4
85    
86     =item rot13
87    
88     Rot-13 the selection when activated. Used via keyboard trigger:
89    
90     URxvt.keysym.C-M-r: perl:selection:rot13
91    
92     =back
93    
94 root 1.54 =item option-popup (enabled by default)
95    
96 root 1.59 Binds a popup menu to Ctrl-Button2 that lets you toggle (some) options at
97 root 1.54 runtime.
98    
99 root 1.133 Other extensions can extend this popup menu by pushing a code reference
100     onto C<@{ $term->{option_popup_hook} }>, which gets called whenever the
101     popup is being displayed.
102    
103     It's sole argument is the popup menu, which can be modified. It should
104     either return nothing or a string, the initial boolean value and a code
105     reference. The string will be used as button text and the code reference
106     will be called when the toggle changes, with the new boolean value as
107     first argument.
108    
109     The following will add an entry C<myoption> that changes
110     C<$self->{myoption}>:
111    
112     push @{ $self->{term}{option_popup_hook} }, sub {
113     ("my option" => $myoption, sub { $self->{myoption} = $_[0] })
114     };
115    
116 root 1.59 =item selection-popup (enabled by default)
117    
118     Binds a popup menu to Ctrl-Button3 that lets you convert the selection
119 root 1.75 text into various other formats/action (such as uri unescaping, perl
120 ayin 1.117 evaluation, web-browser starting etc.), depending on content.
121 root 1.59
122 root 1.110 Other extensions can extend this popup menu by pushing a code reference
123 root 1.133 onto C<@{ $term->{selection_popup_hook} }>, which gets called whenever the
124     popup is being displayed.
125 root 1.101
126     It's sole argument is the popup menu, which can be modified. The selection
127     is in C<$_>, which can be used to decide wether to add something or not.
128     It should either return nothing or a string and a code reference. The
129     string will be used as button text and the code reference will be called
130     when the button gets activated and should transform C<$_>.
131    
132     The following will add an entry C<a to b> that transforms all C<a>s in
133     the selection to C<b>s, but only if the selection currently contains any
134     C<a>s:
135    
136 root 1.110 push @{ $self->{term}{selection_popup_hook} }, sub {
137 root 1.101 /a/ ? ("a to be" => sub { s/a/b/g }
138     : ()
139     };
140    
141 root 1.74 =item searchable-scrollback<hotkey> (enabled by default)
142 root 1.69
143 root 1.74 Adds regex search functionality to the scrollback buffer, triggered
144 root 1.87 by a hotkey (default: C<M-s>). While in search mode, normal terminal
145     input/output is suspended and a regex is displayed at the bottom of the
146     screen.
147    
148     Inputting characters appends them to the regex and continues incremental
149     search. C<BackSpace> removes a character from the regex, C<Up> and C<Down>
150     search upwards/downwards in the scrollback buffer, C<End> jumps to the
151     bottom. C<Escape> leaves search mode and returns to the point where search
152     was started, while C<Enter> or C<Return> stay at the current position and
153     additionally stores the first match in the current line into the primary
154     selection.
155 root 1.69
156 root 1.142 The regex defaults to "(?i)", resulting in a case-insensitive search. To
157     get a case-sensitive search you can delete this prefix using C<BackSpace>
158     or simply use an uppercase character which removes the "(?i)" prefix.
159    
160     See L<perlre> for more info about perl regular expression syntax.
161    
162 root 1.123 =item readline (enabled by default)
163    
164 root 1.135 A support package that tries to make editing with readline easier. At
165     the moment, it reacts to clicking shift-left mouse button by trying to
166 root 1.123 move the text cursor to this position. It does so by generating as many
167     cursor-left or cursor-right keypresses as required (the this only works
168     for programs that correctly support wide characters).
169    
170     To avoid too many false positives, this is only done when:
171    
172     =over 4
173    
174 root 1.125 =item - the tty is in ICANON state.
175    
176     =item - the text cursor is visible.
177 root 1.123
178     =item - the primary screen is currently being displayed.
179    
180 root 1.125 =item - the mouse is on the same (multi-row-) line as the text cursor.
181 root 1.123
182     =back
183    
184     The normal selection mechanism isn't disabled, so quick successive clicks
185     might interfere with selection creation in harmless ways.
186    
187 root 1.88 =item selection-autotransform
188    
189     This selection allows you to do automatic transforms on a selection
190     whenever a selection is made.
191    
192     It works by specifying perl snippets (most useful is a single C<s///>
193     operator) that modify C<$_> as resources:
194    
195     URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: transform
196     URxvt.selection-autotransform.1: transform
197     ...
198    
199     For example, the following will transform selections of the form
200 root 1.89 C<filename:number>, often seen in compiler messages, into C<vi +$filename
201     $word>:
202 root 1.88
203 root 1.93 URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^([^:[:space:]]+):(\\d+):?$/vi +$2 \\Q$1\\E\\x0d/
204 root 1.88
205     And this example matches the same,but replaces it with vi-commands you can
206 root 1.89 paste directly into your (vi :) editor:
207 root 1.15
208 root 1.108 URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^([^:[:space:]]+(\\d+):?$/:e \\Q$1\\E\\x0d:$2\\x0d/
209 root 1.20
210 root 1.90 Of course, this can be modified to suit your needs and your editor :)
211    
212 root 1.91 To expand the example above to typical perl error messages ("XXX at
213     FILENAME line YYY."), you need a slightly more elaborate solution:
214    
215 root 1.108 URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ( at .*? line \\d+[,.])
216     URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^ at (.*?) line (\\d+)[,.]$/:e \\Q$1\E\\x0d:$2\\x0d/
217 root 1.91
218     The first line tells the selection code to treat the unchanging part of
219     every error message as a selection pattern, and the second line transforms
220     the message into vi commands to load the file.
221    
222 root 1.115 =item tabbed
223    
224     This transforms the terminal into a tabbar with additional terminals, that
225     is, it implements what is commonly refered to as "tabbed terminal". The topmost line
226     displays a "[NEW]" button, which, when clicked, will add a new tab, followed by one
227     button per tab.
228    
229 root 1.116 Clicking a button will activate that tab. Pressing B<Shift-Left> and
230     B<Shift-Right> will switch to the tab left or right of the current one,
231     while B<Shift-Down> creates a new tab.
232 root 1.115
233 root 1.132 The tabbar itself can be configured similarly to a normal terminal, but
234     with a resource class of C<URxvt.tabbed>. In addition, it supports the
235     following four resources (shown with defaults):
236    
237     URxvt.tabbed.tabbar-fg: <colour-index, default 3>
238     URxvt.tabbed.tabbar-bg: <colour-index, default 0>
239     URxvt.tabbed.tab-fg: <colour-index, default 0>
240     URxvt.tabbed.tab-bg: <colour-index, default 1>
241    
242     See I<COLOR AND GRAPHICS> in the @@RXVT_NAME@@(1) manpage for valid
243     indices.
244    
245 root 1.35 =item mark-urls
246    
247 root 1.79 Uses per-line display filtering (C<on_line_update>) to underline urls and
248 root 1.83 make them clickable. When middle-clicked, the program specified in the
249 root 1.87 resource C<urlLauncher> (default C<x-www-browser>) will be started with
250     the URL as first argument.
251 root 1.42
252 root 1.128 =item xim-onthespot
253    
254     This (experimental) perl extension implements OnTheSpot editing. It does
255     not work perfectly, and some input methods don't seem to work well with
256     OnTheSpot editing in general, but it seems to work at leats for SCIM and
257     kinput2.
258    
259     You enable it by specifying this extension and a preedit style of
260     C<OnTheSpot>, i.e.:
261    
262     @@RXVT_NAME@@ -pt OnTheSpot -pe xim-onthespot
263    
264 root 1.104 =item automove-background
265    
266 root 1.140 This is basically a very small extension that dynamically changes the
267     background pixmap offset to the window position, in effect creating the
268     same effect as pseudo transparency with a custom pixmap. No scaling is
269     supported in this mode. Exmaple:
270 root 1.104
271     @@RXVT_NAME@@ -pixmap background.xpm -pe automove-background
272    
273 root 1.42 =item block-graphics-to-ascii
274    
275 root 1.141 A not very useful example of filtering all text output to the terminal
276 root 1.42 by replacing all line-drawing characters (U+2500 .. U+259F) by a
277     similar-looking ascii character.
278 root 1.35
279 root 1.88 =item digital-clock
280    
281     Displays a digital clock using the built-in overlay.
282    
283 root 1.130 =item remote-clipboard
284 root 1.129
285     Somewhat of a misnomer, this extension adds two menu entries to the
286     selection popup that allows one ti run external commands to store the
287     selection somewhere and fetch it again.
288    
289     We use it to implement a "distributed selection mechanism", which just
290     means that one command uploads the file to a remote server, and another
291     reads it.
292    
293     The commands can be set using the C<URxvt.remote-selection.store> and
294     C<URxvt.remote-selection.fetch> resources. The first should read the
295     selection to store from STDIN (always in UTF-8), the second should provide
296     the selection data on STDOUT (also in UTF-8).
297    
298     The defaults (which are likely useless to you) use rsh and cat:
299 root 1.20
300 root 1.129 URxvt.remote-selection.store: rsh ruth 'cat >/tmp/distributed-selection'
301     URxvt.remote-selection.fetch: rsh ruth 'cat /tmp/distributed-selection'
302 root 1.15
303 elmex 1.97 =item selection-pastebin
304    
305 root 1.98 This is a little rarely useful extension that Uploads the selection as
306 root 1.99 textfile to a remote site (or does other things). (The implementation is
307     not currently secure for use in a multiuser environment as it writes to
308     F</tmp> directly.).
309 root 1.98
310     It listens to the C<selection-pastebin:remote-pastebin> keyboard command,
311     i.e.
312 elmex 1.97
313     URxvt.keysym.C-M-e: perl:selection-pastebin:remote-pastebin
314    
315 root 1.98 Pressing this combination runs a command with C<%> replaced by the name of
316     the textfile. This command can be set via a resource:
317    
318     URxvt.selection-pastebin.cmd: rsync -apP % ruth:/var/www/www.ta-sa.org/files/txt/.
319    
320     And the default is likely not useful to anybody but the few people around
321     here :)
322 elmex 1.97
323 root 1.98 The name of the textfile is the hex encoded md5 sum of the selection, so
324     the same content should lead to the same filename.
325 elmex 1.97
326 root 1.98 After a successful upload the selection will be replaced by the text given
327     in the C<selection-pastebin-url> resource (again, the % is the placeholder
328     for the filename):
329 elmex 1.97
330 root 1.98 URxvt.selection-pastebin.url: http://www.ta-sa.org/files/txt/%
331 elmex 1.97
332 root 1.129 =item example-refresh-hooks
333    
334     Displays a very simple digital clock in the upper right corner of the
335     window. Illustrates overwriting the refresh callbacks to create your own
336     overlays or changes.

338 root 1.15 =back
339    
340 root 1.75 =head1 API DOCUMENTATION
341    
342 root 1.6 =head2 General API Considerations
343    
344     All objects (such as terminals, time watchers etc.) are typical
345     reference-to-hash objects. The hash can be used to store anything you
346 root 1.7 like. All members starting with an underscore (such as C<_ptr> or
347 root 1.23 C<_hook>) are reserved for internal uses and B<MUST NOT> be accessed or
348 root 1.7 modified).
349 root 1.6
350     When objects are destroyed on the C++ side, the perl object hashes are
351     emptied, so its best to store related objects such as time watchers and
352     the like inside the terminal object so they get destroyed as soon as the
353     terminal is destroyed.
354    
355 root 1.33 Argument names also often indicate the type of a parameter. Here are some
356     hints on what they mean:
357    
358     =over 4
359    
360     =item $text
361    
362     Rxvt-unicodes special way of encoding text, where one "unicode" character
363 root 1.78 always represents one screen cell. See L<ROW_t> for a discussion of this format.
364 root 1.33
365     =item $string
366    
367     A perl text string, with an emphasis on I<text>. It can store all unicode
368     characters and is to be distinguished with text encoded in a specific
369     encoding (often locale-specific) and binary data.
370    
371     =item $octets
372    
373     Either binary data or - more common - a text string encoded in a
374     locale-specific way.
375    
376     =back
377    
378 root 1.69 =head2 Extension Objects
379    
380 root 1.139 Every perl extension is a perl class. A separate perl object is created
381 root 1.69 for each terminal and each extension and passed as the first parameter to
382     hooks. So extensions can use their C<$self> object without having to think
383     about other extensions, with the exception of methods and members that
384     begin with an underscore character C<_>: these are reserved for internal
385     use.
386    
387     Although it isn't a C<urxvt::term> object, you can call all methods of the
388     C<urxvt::term> class on this object.
389    
390     It has the following methods and data members:
391    
392     =over 4
393    
394     =item $urxvt_term = $self->{term}
395    
396     Returns the C<urxvt::term> object associated with this instance of the
397     extension. This member I<must not> be changed in any way.
398    
399     =item $self->enable ($hook_name => $cb, [$hook_name => $cb..])
400    
401     Dynamically enable the given hooks (named without the C<on_> prefix) for
402     this extension, replacing any previous hook. This is useful when you want
403     to overwrite time-critical hooks only temporarily.
404    
405     =item $self->disable ($hook_name[, $hook_name..])
406    
407     Dynamically disable the given hooks.
408    
409     =back
410    
411 root 1.1 =head2 Hooks
412    
413 root 1.43 The following subroutines can be declared in extension files, and will be
414 root 1.23 called whenever the relevant event happens.
415    
416 root 1.69 The first argument passed to them is an extension oject as described in
417     the in the C<Extension Objects> section.
418    
419 root 1.112 B<All> of these hooks must return a boolean value. If any of the called
420     hooks returns true, then the event counts as being I<consumed>, and the
421     relevant action might not be carried out by the C++ code.
422 root 1.1
423 root 1.69 I<< When in doubt, return a false value (preferably C<()>). >>
424 root 1.1
425     =over 4
426    
427     =item on_init $term
428    
429     Called after a new terminal object has been initialized, but before
430 root 1.36 windows are created or the command gets run. Most methods are unsafe to
431     call or deliver senseless data, as terminal size and other characteristics
432 root 1.112 have not yet been determined. You can safely query and change resources
433     and options, though. For many purposes the C<on_start> hook is a better
434     place.
435    
436     =item on_start $term
437    
438     Called at the very end of initialisation of a new terminal, just before
439 root 1.113 trying to map (display) the toplevel and returning to the mainloop.
440    
441     =item on_destroy $term
442    
443 root 1.127 Called whenever something tries to destroy terminal, when the terminal is
444     still fully functional (not for long, though).
445 root 1.1
446     =item on_reset $term
447    
448     Called after the screen is "reset" for any reason, such as resizing or
449     control sequences. Here is where you can react on changes to size-related
450     variables.
451    
452 root 1.108 =item on_child_start $term, $pid
453    
454     Called just after the child process has been C<fork>ed.
455    
456     =item on_child_exit $term, $status
457    
458     Called just after the child process has exited. C<$status> is the status
459     from C<waitpid>.
460    
461 root 1.1 =item on_sel_make $term, $eventtime
462    
463     Called whenever a selection has been made by the user, but before the
464     selection text is copied, so changes to the beginning, end or type of the
465     selection will be honored.
466    
467     Returning a true value aborts selection making by urxvt, in which case you
468     have to make a selection yourself by calling C<< $term->selection_grab >>.
469    
470     =item on_sel_grab $term, $eventtime
471    
472     Called whenever a selection has been copied, but before the selection is
473     requested from the server. The selection text can be queried and changed
474     by calling C<< $term->selection >>.
475    
476     Returning a true value aborts selection grabbing. It will still be hilighted.
477    
478 root 1.22 =item on_sel_extend $term
479    
480     Called whenever the user tries to extend the selection (e.g. with a double
481     click) and is either supposed to return false (normal operation), or
482     should extend the selection itelf and return true to suppress the built-in
483 root 1.85 processing. This can happen multiple times, as long as the callback
484     returns true, it will be called on every further click by the user and is
485     supposed to enlarge the selection more and more, if possible.
486 root 1.22
487     See the F<selection> example extension.
488    
489 root 1.1 =item on_view_change $term, $offset
490    
491     Called whenever the view offset changes, i..e the user or program
492     scrolls. Offset C<0> means display the normal terminal, positive values
493     show this many lines of scrollback.
494    
495     =item on_scroll_back $term, $lines, $saved
496    
497     Called whenever lines scroll out of the terminal area into the scrollback
498     buffer. C<$lines> is the number of lines scrolled out and may be larger
499     than the scroll back buffer or the terminal.
500    
501     It is called before lines are scrolled out (so rows 0 .. min ($lines - 1,
502     $nrow - 1) represent the lines to be scrolled out). C<$saved> is the total
503     number of lines that will be in the scrollback buffer.
504    
505 root 1.137 =item on_osc_seq $term, $op, $args
506    
507     Called on every OSC sequence and can be used to suppress it or modify its
508     behaviour. The default should be to return an empty list. A true value
509     suppresses execution of the request completely. Make sure you don't get
510     confused by recursive invocations when you output an osc sequence within
511     this callback.
512    
513     C<on_osc_seq_perl> should be used for new behaviour.
514    
515     =item on_osc_seq_perl $term, $string
516 root 1.28
517 root 1.29 Called whenever the B<ESC ] 777 ; string ST> command sequence (OSC =
518     operating system command) is processed. Cursor position and other state
519     information is up-to-date when this happens. For interoperability, the
520     string should start with the extension name and a colon, to distinguish
521     it from commands for other extensions, and this might be enforced in the
522     future.
523    
524     Be careful not ever to trust (in a security sense) the data you receive,
525     as its source can not easily be controleld (e-mail content, messages from
526     other users on the same system etc.).
527 root 1.28
528 root 1.33 =item on_add_lines $term, $string
529    
530     Called whenever text is about to be output, with the text as argument. You
531     can filter/change and output the text yourself by returning a true value
532     and calling C<< $term->scr_add_lines >> yourself. Please note that this
533     might be very slow, however, as your hook is called for B<all> text being
534     output.
535    
536 root 1.72 =item on_tt_write $term, $octets
537    
538     Called whenever some data is written to the tty/pty and can be used to
539     suppress or filter tty input.
540    
541 root 1.35 =item on_line_update $term, $row
542    
543     Called whenever a line was updated or changed. Can be used to filter
544     screen output (e.g. underline urls or other useless stuff). Only lines
545     that are being shown will be filtered, and, due to performance reasons,
546     not always immediately.
547    
548     The row number is always the topmost row of the line if the line spans
549     multiple rows.
550    
551     Please note that, if you change the line, then the hook might get called
552     later with the already-modified line (e.g. if unrelated parts change), so
553     you cannot just toggle rendition bits, but only set them.
554    
555 root 1.1 =item on_refresh_begin $term
556    
557     Called just before the screen gets redrawn. Can be used for overlay
558     or similar effects by modify terminal contents in refresh_begin, and
559     restoring them in refresh_end. The built-in overlay and selection display
560     code is run after this hook, and takes precedence.
561    
562     =item on_refresh_end $term
563    
564     Called just after the screen gets redrawn. See C<on_refresh_begin>.
565    
566 root 1.130 =item on_user_command $term, $string
567 root 1.11
568 root 1.130 Called whenever the a user-configured event is being activated (e.g. via
569     a C<perl:string> action bound to a key, see description of the B<keysym>
570 root 1.11 resource in the @@RXVT_NAME@@(1) manpage).
571    
572 root 1.130 The event is simply the action string. This interface is assumed to change
573     slightly in the future.
574    
575 root 1.134 =item on_resize_all_windows $tern, $new_width, $new_height
576    
577     Called just after the new window size has been calculcated, but before
578     windows are actually being resized or hints are being set. If this hook
579     returns TRUE, setting of the window hints is being skipped.
580    
581 root 1.92 =item on_x_event $term, $event
582    
583     Called on every X event received on the vt window (and possibly other
584     windows). Should only be used as a last resort. Most event structure
585     members are not passed.
586    
587 root 1.45 =item on_focus_in $term
588    
589     Called whenever the window gets the keyboard focus, before rxvt-unicode
590     does focus in processing.
591    
592     =item on_focus_out $term
593    
594     Called wheneever the window loses keyboard focus, before rxvt-unicode does
595     focus out processing.

614    
615 root 1.39 Called whenever the corresponding X event is received for the terminal If
616     the hook returns true, then the even will be ignored by rxvt-unicode.
617    
618     The event is a hash with most values as named by Xlib (see the XEvent
619 root 1.120 manpage), with the additional members C<row> and C<col>, which are the
620     (real, not screen-based) row and column under the mouse cursor.
621 root 1.38

1189     hook. Unset resources are returned and accepted as C<undef>.
1190    
1191     The new value must be properly encoded to a suitable character encoding
1192     before passing it to this method. Similarly, the returned value may need
1193     to be converted from the used encoding to text.
1194    
1195     Resource names are as defined in F<src/rsinc.h>. Colours can be specified
1196     as resource names of the form C<< color+<index> >>, e.g. C<color+5>. (will

1373    
1374 root 1.70 =item $term->scr_xor_span ($beg_row, $beg_col, $end_row, $end_col[, $rstyle])
1375    
1376     XORs the rendition values in the given span with the provided value
1377 root 1.86 (default: C<RS_RVid>), which I<MUST NOT> contain font styles. Useful in

1380     =item $term->scr_xor_rect ($beg_row, $beg_col, $end_row, $end_col[, $rstyle1[, $rstyle2]])
1381    
1382     Similar to C<scr_xor_span>, but xors a rectangle instead. Trailing
1383     whitespace will additionally be xored with the C<$rstyle2>, which defaults
1384     to C<RS_RVid | RS_Uline>, which removes reverse video again and underlines
1385 root 1.86 it instead. Both styles I<MUST NOT> contain font styles.

1392    
1393     Write the given text string to the screen, as if output by the application
1394     running inside the terminal. It may not contain command sequences (escape
1395     codes), but is free to use line feeds, carriage returns and tabs. The
1396     string is a normal text string, not in locale-dependent encoding.
1397    
1398     Normally its not a good idea to use this function, as programs might be
1399     confused by changes in cursor position or scrolling. Its useful inside a
1400     C<on_add_lines> hook, though.
1401    
1402 root 1.121 =item $term->scr_change_screen ($screen)
1403    
1404     Switch to given screen - 0 primary, 1 secondary.
1405    
1406 root 1.36 =item $term->cmd_parse ($octets)
1407    
1408     Similar to C<scr_add_lines>, but the argument must be in the
1409     locale-specific encoding of the terminal and can contain command sequences
1410     (escape codes) that will be interpreted.
1411    
1412 root 1.6 =item $term->tt_write ($octets)
1413    
1414     Write the octets given in C<$data> to the tty (i.e. as program input). To
1415 root 1.12 pass characters instead of octets, you should convert your strings first

1558 root 1.12
1559     You have to obey this encoding when changing text. The advantage is
1560     that C<substr> and similar functions work on screen cells and not on
1561     characters.
1562    
1563     The methods C<< $term->special_encode >> and C<< $term->special_decode >>

1581    
1582     =item $bool = $term->is_longer ($row_number)
1583    
1584     Returns true if the row is part of a multiple-row logical "line" (i.e.
1585     joined with the following row), which means all characters are in use
1586     and it is continued on the next row (and possibly a continuation of the

1590    
1591     Create and return a new C<urxvt::line> object that stores information

1614    
1615     =item $offset = $line->offset_of ($row, $col)
1616    
1617     Returns the character offset of the given row|col pair within the logical

1619     offsets outside the string.
1620 root 1.24

1913 root 1.1 =head2 The C<urxvt::timer> Class
1914    
1915     This class implements timer watchers/events. Time is represented as a
1916     fractional number of seconds since the epoch. Example:
1917    
1918 root 1.20 $term->{overlay} = $term->overlay (-1, 0, 8, 1, urxvt::OVERLAY_RSTYLE, 0);
1919 root 1.1 $term->{timer} = urxvt::timer

1923 root 1.20 $term->{overlay}->set (0, 0,
1924     sprintf "%2d:%02d:%02d", (localtime urxvt::NOW)[2,1,0]);
1925     });
1926 root 1.1
1927     =over 4

1930    
1931 root 1.20 Create a new timer object in started state. It is scheduled to fire
1932     immediately.
1933 root 1.1
1934     =item $timer = $timer->cb (sub { my ($timer) = @_; ... })
1935    
1936     Set the callback to be called when the timer triggers.
1937    
1938     =item $tstamp = $timer->at
1939    
1940     Return the time this watcher will fire next.
1941    
1942     =item $timer = $timer->set ($tstamp)
1943    
1944     Set the time the event is generated to $tstamp.
1945    
1946 root 1.20 =item $timer = $timer->interval ($interval)
1947    
1948     Normally (and when C<$interval> is C<0>), the timer will automatically
1949     stop after it has fired once. If C<$interval> is non-zero, then the timer
1950     is automatically rescheduled at the given intervals.
1951    
1952 root 1.1 =item $timer = $timer->start
1953    
1954     Start the timer.
1955    
1956     =item $timer = $timer->start ($tstamp)
1957    
1958     Set the event trigger time to C<$tstamp> and start the timer.
1959    
1960 root 1.103 =item $timer = $timer->after ($delay)
1961    
1962     Like C<start>, but sets the expiry timer to c<urxvt::NOW + $delay>.
1963    
1964 root 1.1 =item $timer = $timer->stop
1965

1993    
1994     =item $iow = $iow->cb (sub { my ($iow, $reventmask) = @_; ... })
1995    
1996     Set the callback to be called when io events are triggered. C<$reventmask>
1997     is a bitset as described in the C<events> method.
1998    
1999     =item $iow = $iow->fd ($fd)
2000    
2001     Set the filedescriptor (not handle) to watch.
2002    
2003     =item $iow = $iow->events ($eventmask)
2004    
2005 root 1.69 Set the event mask to watch. The only allowed values are
2006     C<urxvt::EVENT_READ> and C<urxvt::EVENT_WRITE>, which might be ORed
2007     together, or C<urxvt::EVENT_NONE>.
2008 root 1.1
2009     =item $iow = $iow->start
2010    
2011     Start watching for requested events on the given handle.
2012
