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.

33     This section describes the extensiosn delivered with this version. You can
34     find them in F<@@RXVT_LIBDIR@@/urxvt/perl/>.

42 root 1.54 =item selection (enabled by default)
43 root 1.15
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 root 1.54 =item option-popup (enabled by default)
62    
63     Binds a popup menu to Ctrl-Button3 that lets you toggle (some) options at
64     runtime.
65    
66 root 1.15 =item digital-clock
67    
68 root 1.20 Displays a digital clock using the built-in overlay.
69    
70 root 1.35 =item mark-urls
71    
72 root 1.42 Uses per-line display filtering (C<on_line_update>) to underline urls.
73    
74     =item block-graphics-to-ascii
75    
76     A not very useful example of filtering all text output to the terminal,
77     by replacing all line-drawing characters (U+2500 .. U+259F) by a
78     similar-looking ascii character.
79 root 1.35
80 root 1.20 =item example-refresh-hooks
81    
82 root 1.15 Displays a very simple digital clock in the upper right corner of the
83     window. Illustrates overwriting the refresh callbacks to create your own
84     overlays or changes.

88 root 1.6 =head2 General API Considerations
89    
90     All objects (such as terminals, time watchers etc.) are typical
91     reference-to-hash objects. The hash can be used to store anything you
92 root 1.7 like. All members starting with an underscore (such as C<_ptr> or
93 root 1.23 C<_hook>) are reserved for internal uses and B<MUST NOT> be accessed or
94 root 1.7 modified).
95 root 1.6
96     When objects are destroyed on the C++ side, the perl object hashes are
97     emptied, so its best to store related objects such as time watchers and
98     the like inside the terminal object so they get destroyed as soon as the
99     terminal is destroyed.
100    
101 root 1.33 Argument names also often indicate the type of a parameter. Here are some
102     hints on what they mean:
103    
104     =over 4
105    
106     =item $text
107    
108     Rxvt-unicodes special way of encoding text, where one "unicode" character
109     always represents one screen cell. See L<row_t> for a discussion of this format.
110    
111     =item $string
112    
113     A perl text string, with an emphasis on I<text>. It can store all unicode
114     characters and is to be distinguished with text encoded in a specific
115     encoding (often locale-specific) and binary data.
116    
117     =item $octets
118    
119     Either binary data or - more common - a text string encoded in a
120     locale-specific way.
121    
122     =back
123    
124 root 1.1 =head2 Hooks
125    
126 root 1.43 The following subroutines can be declared in extension files, and will be
127 root 1.23 called whenever the relevant event happens.
128    
129     The first argument passed to them is an object private to each terminal
130 root 1.44 and extension package. You can call all C<urxvt::term> methods on it, but
131 root 1.23 its not a real C<urxvt::term> object. Instead, the real C<urxvt::term>
132     object that is shared between all packages is stored in the C<term>
133 root 1.44 member. It is, however, blessed intot he package of the extension script,
134     so for all practical purposes you can treat an extension script as a class.
135 root 1.1
136     All of them must return a boolean value. If it is true, then the event
137     counts as being I<consumed>, and the invocation of other hooks is skipped,
138     and the relevant action might not be carried out by the C++ code.
139    
140     When in doubt, return a false value (preferably C<()>).
141    
142     =over 4
143    
144     =item on_init $term
145    
146     Called after a new terminal object has been initialized, but before
147 root 1.36 windows are created or the command gets run. Most methods are unsafe to
148     call or deliver senseless data, as terminal size and other characteristics
149     have not yet been determined. You can safely query and change resources,
150     though.
151 root 1.1
152     =item on_reset $term
153    
154     Called after the screen is "reset" for any reason, such as resizing or
155     control sequences. Here is where you can react on changes to size-related
156     variables.
157    
158     =item on_start $term
159    
160     Called at the very end of initialisation of a new terminal, just before
161     returning to the mainloop.
162    
163     =item on_sel_make $term, $eventtime
164    
165     Called whenever a selection has been made by the user, but before the
166     selection text is copied, so changes to the beginning, end or type of the
167     selection will be honored.
168    
169     Returning a true value aborts selection making by urxvt, in which case you
170     have to make a selection yourself by calling C<< $term->selection_grab >>.
171    
172     =item on_sel_grab $term, $eventtime
173    
174     Called whenever a selection has been copied, but before the selection is
175     requested from the server. The selection text can be queried and changed
176     by calling C<< $term->selection >>.
177    
178     Returning a true value aborts selection grabbing. It will still be hilighted.
179    
180 root 1.22 =item on_sel_extend $term
181    
182     Called whenever the user tries to extend the selection (e.g. with a double
183     click) and is either supposed to return false (normal operation), or
184     should extend the selection itelf and return true to suppress the built-in
185     processing.
186    
187     See the F<selection> example extension.
188    
189 root 1.1 =item on_view_change $term, $offset
190    
191     Called whenever the view offset changes, i..e the user or program
192     scrolls. Offset C<0> means display the normal terminal, positive values
193     show this many lines of scrollback.
194    
195     =item on_scroll_back $term, $lines, $saved
196    
197     Called whenever lines scroll out of the terminal area into the scrollback
198     buffer. C<$lines> is the number of lines scrolled out and may be larger
199     than the scroll back buffer or the terminal.
200    
201     It is called before lines are scrolled out (so rows 0 .. min ($lines - 1,
202     $nrow - 1) represent the lines to be scrolled out). C<$saved> is the total
203     number of lines that will be in the scrollback buffer.
204    
205     =item on_tty_activity $term *NYI*
206    
207     Called whenever the program(s) running in the urxvt window send output.
208    
209 root 1.28 =item on_osc_seq $term, $string
210    
211 root 1.29 Called whenever the B<ESC ] 777 ; string ST> command sequence (OSC =
212     operating system command) is processed. Cursor position and other state
213     information is up-to-date when this happens. For interoperability, the
214     string should start with the extension name and a colon, to distinguish
215     it from commands for other extensions, and this might be enforced in the
216     future.
217    
218     Be careful not ever to trust (in a security sense) the data you receive,
219     as its source can not easily be controleld (e-mail content, messages from
220     other users on the same system etc.).
221 root 1.28
222 root 1.33 =item on_add_lines $term, $string
223    
224     Called whenever text is about to be output, with the text as argument. You
225     can filter/change and output the text yourself by returning a true value
226     and calling C<< $term->scr_add_lines >> yourself. Please note that this
227     might be very slow, however, as your hook is called for B<all> text being
228     output.
229    
230 root 1.35 =item on_line_update $term, $row
231    
232     Called whenever a line was updated or changed. Can be used to filter
233     screen output (e.g. underline urls or other useless stuff). Only lines
234     that are being shown will be filtered, and, due to performance reasons,
235     not always immediately.
236    
237     The row number is always the topmost row of the line if the line spans
238     multiple rows.
239    
240     Please note that, if you change the line, then the hook might get called
241     later with the already-modified line (e.g. if unrelated parts change), so
242     you cannot just toggle rendition bits, but only set them.
243    
244 root 1.1 =item on_refresh_begin $term
245    
246     Called just before the screen gets redrawn. Can be used for overlay
247     or similar effects by modify terminal contents in refresh_begin, and
248     restoring them in refresh_end. The built-in overlay and selection display
249     code is run after this hook, and takes precedence.
250    
251     =item on_refresh_end $term
252    
253     Called just after the screen gets redrawn. See C<on_refresh_begin>.
254    
255 root 1.11 =item on_keyboard_command $term, $string
256    
257     Called whenever the user presses a key combination that has a
258     C<perl:string> action bound to it (see description of the B<keysym>
259     resource in the @@RXVT_NAME@@(1) manpage).
260    
261 root 1.45 =item on_focus_in $term
262    
263     Called whenever the window gets the keyboard focus, before rxvt-unicode
264     does focus in processing.
265    
266     =item on_focus_out $term
267    
268     Called wheneever the window loses keyboard focus, before rxvt-unicode does
269     focus out processing.
270    
271 root 1.38 =item on_key_press $term, $event, $octets
272 root 1.37
273     =item on_key_release $term, $event
274    
275     =item on_button_press $term, $event
276    
277     =item on_button_release $term, $event
278    
279     =item on_motion_notify $term, $event
280    
281 root 1.45 =item on_map_notify $term, $event
282    
283     =item on_unmap_notify $term, $event
284    
285 root 1.39 Called whenever the corresponding X event is received for the terminal If
286     the hook returns true, then the even will be ignored by rxvt-unicode.
287    
288     The event is a hash with most values as named by Xlib (see the XEvent
289     manpage), with the additional members C<row> and C<col>, which are the row
290     and column under the mouse cursor.
291 root 1.38
292     C<on_key_press> additionally receives the string rxvt-unicode would
293     output, if any, in locale-specific encoding.

300    
301     =over 4
302    
303     =item $urxvt::TERM
304    
305 root 1.43 The current terminal. This variable stores the current C<urxvt::term>
306     object, whenever a callback/hook is executing.

310 root 1.1 =head2 Functions in the C<urxvt> Package
311    
312     =over 4
313    
314 root 1.36 =item $term = new urxvt [arg...]
315    
316     Creates a new terminal, very similar as if you had started it with
317     C<system $binfile, arg...>. Croaks (and probably outputs an error message)
318     if the new instance couldn't be created. Returns C<undef> if the new
319     instance didn't initialise perl, and the terminal object otherwise. The
320     C<init> and C<start> hooks will be called during the call.
321    
322 root 1.1 =item urxvt::fatal $errormessage
323    
324     Fatally aborts execution with the given error message. Avoid at all
325     costs! The only time this is acceptable is when the terminal process
326     starts up.
327    
328     =item urxvt::warn $string
329    
330 root 1.6 Calls C<rxvt_warn> with the given string which should not include a
331 root 1.1 newline. The module also overwrites the C<warn> builtin with a function
332     that calls this function.
333    
334     Using this function has the advantage that its output ends up in the
335     correct place, e.g. on stderr of the connecting urxvtc client.
336    
337     =item $time = urxvt::NOW
338    
339     Returns the "current time" (as per the event loop).
340    
341 root 1.47 =item urxvt::CurrentTime
342    
343     =item urxvt::ShiftMask, LockMask, ControlMask, Mod1Mask, Mod2Mask,
344     Mod3Mask, Mod4Mask, Mod5Mask, Button1Mask, Button2Mask, Button3Mask,
345     Button4Mask, Button5Mask, AnyModifier
346    
347     Various constants for use in X events.

350    
351 root 1.18 =head2 RENDITION
352    
353     Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font styles and
354     similar information for each screen cell.
355    
356     The following "macros" deal with changes in rendition sets. You should
357     never just create a bitset, you should always modify an existing one,
358     as they contain important information required for correct operation of
359     rxvt-unicode.
360    
361     =over 4
362    
363     =item $rend = urxvt::DEFAULT_RSTYLE
364    
365     Returns the default rendition, as used when the terminal is starting up or
366     being reset. Useful as a base to start when creating renditions.
367    
368     =item $rend = urxvt::OVERLAY_RSTYLE
369    
370     Return the rendition mask used for overlays by default.
371    
372     =item $rendbit = urxvt::RS_Bold, RS_Italic, RS_Blink, RS_RVid, RS_Uline
373    
374     Return the bit that enabled bold, italic, blink, reverse-video and
375 root 1.19 underline, respectively. To enable such a style, just logically OR it into
376     the bitset.
377 root 1.18
378     =item $foreground = urxvt::GET_BASEFG $rend
379    
380     =item $background = urxvt::GET_BASEBG $rend
381    
382     Return the foreground/background colour index, respectively.
383    
384     =item $rend = urxvt::SET_FGCOLOR ($rend, $new_colour)
385    
386     =item $rend = urxvt::SET_BGCOLOR ($rend, $new_colour)
387    
388     Replace the foreground/background colour in the rendition mask with the
389     specified one.
390    
391 root 1.19 =item $value = urxvt::GET_CUSTOM ($rend)
392    
393     Return the "custom" value: Every rendition has 5 bits for use by
394     extensions. They can be set and changed as you like and are initially
395     zero.
396    
397     =item $rend = urxvt::SET_CUSTOM ($rend, $new_value)
398    
399     Change the custom value.

609     The new value must be properly encoded to a suitable character encoding

766     Convert the given locale-encoded octets into a perl string.
767    
768 root 1.33 =item $term->scr_add_lines ($string)
769    
770     Write the given text string to the screen, as if output by the application
771     running inside the terminal. It may not contain command sequences (escape
772     codes), but is free to use line feeds, carriage returns and tabs. The
773     string is a normal text string, not in locale-dependent encoding.
774    
775     Normally its not a good idea to use this function, as programs might be
776     confused by changes in cursor position or scrolling. Its useful inside a
777     C<on_add_lines> hook, though.
778    
779 root 1.36 =item $term->cmd_parse ($octets)
780    
781     Similar to C<scr_add_lines>, but the argument must be in the

783     (escape codes) that will be interpreted.
784    
785 root 1.6 =item $term->tt_write ($octets)
786    
787     Write the octets given in C<$data> to the tty (i.e. as program input). To

826    
827     =item $modifiermask = $term->ModMetaMask
828    
829     =item $modifiermask = $term->ModNumLockMask
830    
831     Return the modifier masks corresponding to the "ISO Level 3 Shift" (often
832     AltGr), the meta key (often Alt) and the num lock key, if applicable.
833    
834 root 1.12 =item $view_start = $term->view_start ([$newvalue])
835    
836     Returns the negative row number of the topmost line. Minimum value is
837     C<0>, which displays the normal terminal contents. Larger values scroll
838     this many lines into the scrollback buffer.
839    
840 root 1.14 =item $term->want_refresh
841    
842     Requests a screen refresh. At the next opportunity, rxvt-unicode will
843     compare the on-screen display with its stored representation. If they
844     differ, it redraws the differences.
845    
846     Used after changing terminal contents to display them.
847    
848 root 1.13 =item $text = $term->ROW_t ($row_number[, $new_text[, $start_col]])
849 root 1.12
850     Returns the text of the entire row with number C<$row_number>. Row C<0>
851     is the topmost terminal line, row C<< $term->$ncol-1 >> is the bottommost
852     terminal line. The scrollback buffer starts at line C<-1> and extends to
853 root 1.24 line C<< -$term->nsaved >>. Nothing will be returned if a nonexistent line
854     is requested.
855 root 1.12
856 root 1.13 If C<$new_text> is specified, it will replace characters in the current
857     line, starting at column C<$start_col> (default C<0>), which is useful
858 root 1.18 to replace only parts of a line. The font index in the rendition will
859 root 1.13 automatically be updated.
860 root 1.12
861     C<$text> is in a special encoding: tabs and wide characters that use more
862     than one cell when displayed are padded with urxvt::NOCHAR characters
863     (C<chr 65535>). Characters with combining characters and other characters
864     that do not fit into the normal tetx encoding will be replaced with
865     characters in the private use area.
866    
867     You have to obey this encoding when changing text. The advantage is
868     that C<substr> and similar functions work on screen cells and not on
869     characters.
870    
871     The methods C<< $term->special_encode >> and C<< $term->special_decode >>
872     can be used to convert normal strings into this encoding and vice versa.
873    
874 root 1.13 =item $rend = $term->ROW_r ($row_number[, $new_rend[, $start_col]])
875    
876     Like C<< $term->ROW_t >>, but returns an arrayref with rendition
877     bitsets. Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font
878     styles and similar information. See also C<< $term->ROW_t >>.
879    
880     When setting rendition, the font mask will be ignored.
881 root 1.12
882 root 1.18 See the section on RENDITION, above.
883 root 1.13
884     =item $length = $term->ROW_l ($row_number[, $new_length])
885    
886 root 1.24 Returns the number of screen cells that are in use ("the line
887     length"). Unlike the urxvt core, this returns C<< $term->ncol >> if the
888     line is joined with the following one.
889    
890     =item $bool = $term->is_longer ($row_number)
891    
892     Returns true if the row is part of a multiple-row logical "line" (i.e.
893     joined with the following row), which means all characters are in use
894     and it is continued on the next row (and possibly a continuation of the
895     previous row(s)).
896    
897     =item $line = $term->line ($row_number)
898    
899     Create and return a new C<urxvt::line> object that stores information
900     about the logical line that row C<$row_number> is part of. It supports the
901     following methods:
902 root 1.12

910 root 1.24
911 root 1.35 Returns or replaces the full rendition array of the line, similar to C<ROW_r>
912 root 1.24
913     =item $length = $line->l

918    
919     =item $rownum = $line->end
920    
921     Return the row number of the first/last row of the line, respectively.
922

1104 root 1.1 =head2 The C<urxvt::timer> Class
1105    
1106     This class implements timer watchers/events. Time is represented as a
1107     fractional number of seconds since the epoch. Example:

1109 root 1.20 $term->{overlay} = $term->overlay (-1, 0, 8, 1, urxvt::OVERLAY_RSTYLE, 0);
1110 root 1.1 $term->{timer} = urxvt::timer

1121    
1122 root 1.20 Create a new timer object in started state. It is scheduled to fire
1123     immediately.
1124 root 1.1
1125     =item $timer = $timer->cb (sub { my ($timer) = @_; ... })
1126    
1127     Set the callback to be called when the timer triggers.
1128    
1129     =item $tstamp = $timer->at
1130    
1131     Return the time this watcher will fire next.
1132    
1133     =item $timer = $timer->set ($tstamp)
1134    
1135     Set the time the event is generated to $tstamp.
1136    
1137 root 1.20 =item $timer = $timer->interval ($interval)
1138    
1139     Normally (and when C<$interval> is C<0>), the timer will automatically
1140     stop after it has fired once. If C<$interval> is non-zero, then the timer
1141     is automatically rescheduled at the given intervals.
1142    
1143 root 1.1 =item $timer = $timer->start
1144    
1145     Start the timer.
1146    
1147     =item $timer = $timer->start ($tstamp)
1148    
1149     Set the event trigger time to C<$tstamp> and start the timer.
1150    
1151     =item $timer = $timer->stop
1152    
1153     Stop the timer.

1180    
1181     =item $iow = $iow->cb (sub { my ($iow, $reventmask) = @_; ... })
1182    
1183     Set the callback to be called when io events are triggered. C<$reventmask>
1184     is a bitset as described in the C<events> method.
1185    
1186     =item $iow = $iow->fd ($fd)
1187    
1188     Set the filedescriptor (not handle) to watch.
1189    
1190     =item $iow = $iow->events ($eventmask)
1191    
1192     Set the event mask to watch. Bit #0 (value C<1>) enables watching for read
1193     data, Bit #1 (value C<2>) enables watching for write data.
1194    
1195     =item $iow = $iow->start
1196    
1197     Start watching for requested events on the given handle.
1198    
1199     =item $iow = $iow->stop
1200    
1201     Stop watching for events on the given filehandle.
