219This (experimental) perl extension implements OnTheSpot editing. It does
220not work perfectly, and some input methods don't seem to work well with
221OnTheSpot editing in general, but it seems to work at leats for SCIM and
222kinput2.
223
224You enable it by specifying this extension and a preedit style of
225C<OnTheSpot>, i.e.:

238window. Illustrates overwriting the refresh callbacks to create your own 250selection popup that allows one ti run external commands to store the

252
253We use it to implement a "distributed selection mechanism", which just
254means that one command uploads the file to a remote server, and another
255reads it.
256
257The commands can be set using the C<URxvt.remote-selection.store> and
258C<URxvt.remote-selection.fetch> resources. The first should read the
259selection to store from STDIN (always in UTF-8), the second should provide
260the selection data on STDOUT (also in UTF-8).
261
262The defaults (which are likely useless to you) use rsh and cat:

264 URxvt.remote-selection.store: rsh ruth 'cat >/tmp/distributed-selection'
