20     =head1 DESCRIPTION
21    
22 root 1.8 Everytime a terminal object gets created, scripts specified via the
23 root 1.10 C<perl> resource are loaded and associated with it.
24    
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.

32 root 1.15
33     This section describes the extensiosn delivered with this version. You can
34     find them in F<@@RXVT_LIBDIR@@/urxvt/perl/>.
35    
36     You can activate them like this:

42     =item selection
43    
44 root 1.26 Intelligent selection. This extension tries to be more intelligent when
45     the user extends selections (double-click). Right now, it tries to select
46     urls and complete shell-quoted arguments, which is very convenient, too,
47     if your F<ls> supports C<--quoting-style=shell>.
48 root 1.22
49     It also offers the following bindable event:

61     =item digital-clock
62    
63 root 1.20 Displays a digital clock using the built-in overlay.
64    
65     =item example-refresh-hooks
66    
67 root 1.15 Displays a very simple digital clock in the upper right corner of the
68     window. Illustrates overwriting the refresh callbacks to create your own
69     overlays or changes.

73 root 1.6 =head2 General API Considerations
74    
75     All objects (such as terminals, time watchers etc.) are typical
76     reference-to-hash objects. The hash can be used to store anything you
77 root 1.7 like. All members starting with an underscore (such as C<_ptr> or
78 root 1.23 C<_hook>) are reserved for internal uses and B<MUST NOT> be accessed or
79 root 1.7 modified).
80 root 1.6
81     When objects are destroyed on the C++ side, the perl object hashes are
82     emptied, so its best to store related objects such as time watchers and
83     the like inside the terminal object so they get destroyed as soon as the
84     terminal is destroyed.
85    
86 root 1.1 =head2 Hooks
87    
88 root 1.23 The following subroutines can be declared in loaded scripts, and will be
89     called whenever the relevant event happens.
90    
91     The first argument passed to them is an object private to each terminal
92     and extension package. You can call all C<urxvt::term> methods on it, but
93     its not a real C<urxvt::term> object. Instead, the real C<urxvt::term>
94     object that is shared between all packages is stored in the C<term>
95     member.
96 root 1.1
97     All of them must return a boolean value. If it is true, then the event
98     counts as being I<consumed>, and the invocation of other hooks is skipped,
99     and the relevant action might not be carried out by the C++ code.
100    
101     When in doubt, return a false value (preferably C<()>).
102    
103     =over 4
104    
105     =item on_init $term
106    
107     Called after a new terminal object has been initialized, but before
108     windows are created or the command gets run.
109    
110     =item on_reset $term
111    
112     Called after the screen is "reset" for any reason, such as resizing or
113     control sequences. Here is where you can react on changes to size-related
114     variables.
115    
116     =item on_start $term
117    
118     Called at the very end of initialisation of a new terminal, just before
119     returning to the mainloop.
120    
121     =item on_sel_make $term, $eventtime
122    
123     Called whenever a selection has been made by the user, but before the
124     selection text is copied, so changes to the beginning, end or type of the
125     selection will be honored.
126    
127     Returning a true value aborts selection making by urxvt, in which case you
128     have to make a selection yourself by calling C<< $term->selection_grab >>.
129    
130     =item on_sel_grab $term, $eventtime
131    
132     Called whenever a selection has been copied, but before the selection is
133     requested from the server. The selection text can be queried and changed
134     by calling C<< $term->selection >>.
135    
136     Returning a true value aborts selection grabbing. It will still be hilighted.
137    
138 root 1.22 =item on_sel_extend $term
139    
140     Called whenever the user tries to extend the selection (e.g. with a double
141     click) and is either supposed to return false (normal operation), or
142     should extend the selection itelf and return true to suppress the built-in
143     processing.
144    
145     See the F<selection> example extension.
146    
147 root 1.1 =item on_focus_in $term
148    
149     Called whenever the window gets the keyboard focus, before urxvt does
150     focus in processing.
151    
152     =item on_focus_out $term
153    
154     Called wheneever the window loses keyboard focus, before urxvt does focus
155     out processing.
156    
157     =item on_view_change $term, $offset
158    
159     Called whenever the view offset changes, i..e the user or program
160     scrolls. Offset C<0> means display the normal terminal, positive values
161     show this many lines of scrollback.
162    
163     =item on_scroll_back $term, $lines, $saved
164    
165     Called whenever lines scroll out of the terminal area into the scrollback
166     buffer. C<$lines> is the number of lines scrolled out and may be larger
167     than the scroll back buffer or the terminal.
168    
169     It is called before lines are scrolled out (so rows 0 .. min ($lines - 1,
170     $nrow - 1) represent the lines to be scrolled out). C<$saved> is the total
171     number of lines that will be in the scrollback buffer.
172    
173     =item on_tty_activity $term *NYI*
174    
175     Called whenever the program(s) running in the urxvt window send output.
176    
177 root 1.28 =item on_osc_seq $term, $string
178    
179 root 1.29 Called whenever the B<ESC ] 777 ; string ST> command sequence (OSC =
180     operating system command) is processed. Cursor position and other state
181     information is up-to-date when this happens. For interoperability, the
182     string should start with the extension name and a colon, to distinguish
183     it from commands for other extensions, and this might be enforced in the
184     future.
185    
186     Be careful not ever to trust (in a security sense) the data you receive,
187     as its source can not easily be controleld (e-mail content, messages from
188     other users on the same system etc.).
189 root 1.28
190 root 1.1 =item on_refresh_begin $term
191    
192     Called just before the screen gets redrawn. Can be used for overlay
193     or similar effects by modify terminal contents in refresh_begin, and
194     restoring them in refresh_end. The built-in overlay and selection display
195     code is run after this hook, and takes precedence.
196    
197     =item on_refresh_end $term
198    
199     Called just after the screen gets redrawn. See C<on_refresh_begin>.
200    
201 root 1.11 =item on_keyboard_command $term, $string
202    
203     Called whenever the user presses a key combination that has a
204     C<perl:string> action bound to it (see description of the B<keysym>
205     resource in the @@RXVT_NAME@@(1) manpage).

223    
224     =item urxvt::fatal $errormessage
225    
226     Fatally aborts execution with the given error message. Avoid at all
227     costs! The only time this is acceptable is when the terminal process
228     starts up.
229    
230     =item urxvt::warn $string
231    
232 root 1.6 Calls C<rxvt_warn> with the given string which should not include a
233 root 1.1 newline. The module also overwrites the C<warn> builtin with a function
234     that calls this function.
235    
236     Using this function has the advantage that its output ends up in the
237     correct place, e.g. on stderr of the connecting urxvtc client.
238    
239     =item $time = urxvt::NOW
240    
241     Returns the "current time" (as per the event loop).

243 root 1.21 =back
244    
245 root 1.18 =head2 RENDITION
246    
247     Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font styles and
248     similar information for each screen cell.
249    
250     The following "macros" deal with changes in rendition sets. You should
251     never just create a bitset, you should always modify an existing one,
252     as they contain important information required for correct operation of
253     rxvt-unicode.
254    
255     =over 4
256    
257     =item $rend = urxvt::DEFAULT_RSTYLE
258    
259     Returns the default rendition, as used when the terminal is starting up or
260     being reset. Useful as a base to start when creating renditions.
261    
262     =item $rend = urxvt::OVERLAY_RSTYLE
263    
264     Return the rendition mask used for overlays by default.
265    
266     =item $rendbit = urxvt::RS_Bold, RS_Italic, RS_Blink, RS_RVid, RS_Uline
267    
268     Return the bit that enabled bold, italic, blink, reverse-video and
269 root 1.19 underline, respectively. To enable such a style, just logically OR it into
270     the bitset.
271 root 1.18
272     =item $foreground = urxvt::GET_BASEFG $rend
273    
274     =item $background = urxvt::GET_BASEBG $rend
275    
276     Return the foreground/background colour index, respectively.
277    
278     =item $rend = urxvt::SET_FGCOLOR ($rend, $new_colour)
279    
280     =item $rend = urxvt::SET_BGCOLOR ($rend, $new_colour)
281    
282     Replace the foreground/background colour in the rendition mask with the
283     specified one.
284    
285 root 1.19 =item $value = urxvt::GET_CUSTOM ($rend)
286    
287     Return the "custom" value: Every rendition has 5 bits for use by
288     extensions. They can be set and changed as you like and are initially
289     zero.
290    
291     =item $rend = urxvt::SET_CUSTOM ($rend, $new_value)
292    
293     Change the custom value.

452     Returns the current resource value associated with a given name and

455    
456     The new value must be properly encoded to a suitable character encoding
457     before passing it to this method. Similarly, the returned value may need
458     to be converted from the used encoding to text.
459    
460     Resource names are as defined in F<src/rsinc.h>. Colours can be specified
461     as resource names of the form C<< color+<index> >>, e.g. C<color+5>. (will
462     likely change).

622    
623     Returns the negative row number of the topmost line. Minimum value is

625     this many lines into the scrollback buffer.
626    
627 root 1.14 =item $term->want_refresh
628    
629     Requests a screen refresh. At the next opportunity, rxvt-unicode will
630     compare the on-screen display with its stored representation. If they
631     differ, it redraws the differences.
632    
633     Used after changing terminal contents to display them.

635 root 1.13 =item $text = $term->ROW_t ($row_number[, $new_text[, $start_col]])
636 root 1.12
637     Returns the text of the entire row with number C<$row_number>. Row C<0>
638     is the topmost terminal line, row C<< $term->$ncol-1 >> is the bottommost
639     terminal line. The scrollback buffer starts at line C<-1> and extends to

641     is requested.
642 root 1.12
643 root 1.13 If C<$new_text> is specified, it will replace characters in the current
644     line, starting at column C<$start_col> (default C<0>), which is useful
645 root 1.18 to replace only parts of a line. The font index in the rendition will
646 root 1.13 automatically be updated.
647 root 1.12
648     C<$text> is in a special encoding: tabs and wide characters that use more
649     than one cell when displayed are padded with urxvt::NOCHAR characters
650     (C<chr 65535>). Characters with combining characters and other characters
651     that do not fit into the normal tetx encoding will be replaced with
652     characters in the private use area.
653    
654     You have to obey this encoding when changing text. The advantage is
655     that C<substr> and similar functions work on screen cells and not on
656     characters.
657    
658     The methods C<< $term->special_encode >> and C<< $term->special_decode >>
659     can be used to convert normal strings into this encoding and vice versa.
660    
661 root 1.13 =item $rend = $term->ROW_r ($row_number[, $new_rend[, $start_col]])
662    
663     Like C<< $term->ROW_t >>, but returns an arrayref with rendition
664     bitsets. Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font
665     styles and similar information. See also C<< $term->ROW_t >>.
666    
667     When setting rendition, the font mask will be ignored.

670 root 1.13
671     =item $length = $term->ROW_l ($row_number[, $new_length])
672    
673 root 1.24 Returns the number of screen cells that are in use ("the line
674     length"). Unlike the urxvt core, this returns C<< $term->ncol >> if the
675     line is joined with the following one.
676    
677     =item $bool = $term->is_longer ($row_number)
678    
679     Returns true if the row is part of a multiple-row logical "line" (i.e.
680     joined with the following row), which means all characters are in use
681     and it is continued on the next row (and possibly a continuation of the
682     previous row(s)).
683    
684     =item $line = $term->line ($row_number)
685    
686     Create and return a new C<urxvt::line> object that stores information
687     about the logical line that row C<$row_number> is part of. It supports the
