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

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

49It also offers the following bindable event:

77A not very useful example of filtering all text output to the terminal, by
78underlining all urls that matches a certain regex (i.e. some urls :). It
79is not very useful because urls that are output in multiple steps (e.g.
80when typing them) do not get marked.

102=item $text
103
104Rxvt-unicodes special way of encoding text, where one "unicode" character
105always represents one screen cell. See L<row_t> for a discussion of this format.
106
107=item $string
108
109A perl text string, with an emphasis on I<text>. It can store all unicode
110characters and is to be distinguished with text encoded in a specific
111encoding (often locale-specific) and binary data.
112

58Called after a new terminal object has been initialized, but before 141Called after a new terminal object has been initialized, but before
59windows are created or the command gets run. 142windows are created or the command gets run. Most methods are unsafe to
143call or deliver senseless data, as terminal size and other characteristics
144have not yet been determined. You can safely query and change resources,
145though.

61=item on_reset $term 147=item on_reset $term

175=item on_sel_extend $term
176
177Called whenever the user tries to extend the selection (e.g. with a double
178click) and is either supposed to return false (normal operation), or
179should extend the selection itelf and return true to suppress the built-in
180processing.

115=item on_tty_activity $term *NYI* 210=item on_tty_activity $term *NYI*
116 211
117Called whenever the program(s) running in the urxvt window send output. 212Called whenever the program(s) running in the urxvt window send output.
213
214=item on_osc_seq $term, $string
215
216Called whenever the B<ESC ] 777 ; string ST> command sequence (OSC =
217operating system command) is processed. Cursor position and other state
218information is up-to-date when this happens. For interoperability, the
219string should start with the extension name and a colon, to distinguish
220it from commands for other extensions, and this might be enforced in the
221future.
222
223Be careful not ever to trust (in a security sense) the data you receive,
224as its source can not easily be controleld (e-mail content, messages from
225other users on the same system etc.).
226
227=item on_add_lines $term, $string
228
229Called whenever text is about to be output, with the text as argument. You
230can filter/change and output the text yourself by returning a true value
231and calling C<< $term->scr_add_lines >> yourself. Please note that this
232might be very slow, however, as your hook is called for B<all> text being
233output.
234
235=item on_line_update $term, $row
236
237Called whenever a line was updated or changed. Can be used to filter
238screen output (e.g. underline urls or other useless stuff). Only lines
239that are being shown will be filtered, and, due to performance reasons,
240not always immediately.
241
242The row number is always the topmost row of the line if the line spans
243multiple rows.
244
245Please note that, if you change the line, then the hook might get called
246later with the already-modified line (e.g. if unrelated parts change), so
247you cannot just toggle rendition bits, but only set them.
118 248
119=item on_refresh_begin $term 249=item on_refresh_begin $term
120 250
121Called just before the screen gets redrawn. Can be used for overlay 251Called just before the screen gets redrawn. Can be used for overlay
122or similar effects by modify terminal contents in refresh_begin, and 252or similar effects by modify terminal contents in refresh_begin, and
125 255

128Called just after the screen gets redrawn. See C<on_refresh_begin>. 258Called just after the screen gets redrawn. See C<on_refresh_begin>.
129 259
260=item on_keyboard_command $term, $string
261
262Called whenever the user presses a key combination that has a
263C<perl:string> action bound to it (see description of the B<keysym>
264resource in the @@RXVT_NAME@@(1) manpage).

276Called whenever the corresponding X event is received for the terminal
277(see the XEvent manpage) If the hook returns true, then the even will be
278ignored by rxvt-unicode.

304Creates a new terminal, very similar as if you had started it with
305C<system $binfile, arg...>. Croaks (and probably outputs an error message)
306if the new instance couldn't be created. Returns C<undef> if the new
307instance didn't initialise perl, and the terminal object otherwise. The

332
333Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font styles and
334similar information for each screen cell.
335
336The following "macros" deal with changes in rendition sets. You should
337never just create a bitset, you should always modify an existing one,
338as they contain important information required for correct operation of
339rxvt-unicode.

342
343=item $rend = urxvt::DEFAULT_RSTYLE
344

346being reset. Useful as a base to start when creating renditions.
347
348=item $rend = urxvt::OVERLAY_RSTYLE
349
350Return the rendition mask used for overlays by default.
351
352=item $rendbit = urxvt::RS_Bold, RS_Italic, RS_Blink, RS_RVid, RS_Uline
353
354Return the bit that enabled bold, italic, blink, reverse-video and
355underline, respectively. To enable such a style, just logically OR it into
356the bitset.

682codes), but is free to use line feeds, carriage returns and tabs. The
683string is a normal text string, not in locale-dependent encoding.
684
685Normally its not a good idea to use this function, as programs might be
686confused by changes in cursor position or scrolling. Its useful inside a
687C<on_add_lines> hook, though.

728
729Returns the negative row number of the topmost line. Minimum value is
730C<0>, which displays the normal terminal contents. Larger values scroll
731this many lines into the scrollback buffer.
732
733=item $term->want_refresh
734
735Requests a screen refresh. At the next opportunity, rxvt-unicode will
736compare the on-screen display with its stored representation. If they
737differ, it redraws the differences.
738
739Used after changing terminal contents to display them.
740
741=item $text = $term->ROW_t ($row_number[, $new_text[, $start_col]])
742
743Returns the text of the entire row with number C<$row_number>. Row C<0>
744is the topmost terminal line, row C<< $term->$ncol-1 >> is the bottommost
745terminal line. The scrollback buffer starts at line C<-1> and extends to
746line C<< -$term->nsaved >>. Nothing will be returned if a nonexistent line
747is requested.
748
749If C<$new_text> is specified, it will replace characters in the current
750line, starting at column C<$start_col> (default C<0>), which is useful
751to replace only parts of a line. The font index in the rendition will
752automatically be updated.
753
754C<$text> is in a special encoding: tabs and wide characters that use more
755than one cell when displayed are padded with urxvt::NOCHAR characters
756(C<chr 65535>). Characters with combining characters and other characters
757that do not fit into the normal tetx encoding will be replaced with
758characters in the private use area.
759
760You have to obey this encoding when changing text. The advantage is
761that C<substr> and similar functions work on screen cells and not on
762characters.
763
764The methods C<< $term->special_encode >> and C<< $term->special_decode >>
765can be used to convert normal strings into this encoding and vice versa.
766
767=item $rend = $term->ROW_r ($row_number[, $new_rend[, $start_col]])
768
769Like C<< $term->ROW_t >>, but returns an arrayref with rendition
770bitsets. Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font
771styles and similar information. See also C<< $term->ROW_t >>.
772
773When setting rendition, the font mask will be ignored.
774
775See the section on RENDITION, above.
776
777=item $length = $term->ROW_l ($row_number[, $new_length])
778
779Returns the number of screen cells that are in use ("the line
780length"). Unlike the urxvt core, this returns C<< $term->ncol >> if the
781line is joined with the following one.
782
783=item $bool = $term->is_longer ($row_number)
784
785Returns true if the row is part of a multiple-row logical "line" (i.e.
786joined with the following row), which means all characters are in use
787and it is continued on the next row (and possibly a continuation of the
788previous row(s)).
789
790=item $line = $term->line ($row_number)
791
792Create and return a new C<urxvt::line> object that stores information
793about the logical line that row C<$row_number> is part of. It supports the
794following methods:
795
796=over 4
797
798=item $text = $line->t ([$new_text])
799
800Returns or replaces the full text of the line, similar to C<ROW_t>
801
802=item $rend = $line->r ([$new_rend])
803
804Returns or replaces the full rendition array of the line, similar to C<ROW_r>
805
806=item $length = $line->l
807
808Returns the length of the line in cells, similar to C<ROW_l>.
809
810=item $rownum = $line->beg
811
812=item $rownum = $line->end
813
814Return the row number of the first/last row of the line, respectively.
815
816=item $offset = $line->offset_of ($row, $col)
817
818Returns the character offset of the given row|col pair within the logical
819line.
