72
73A not very useful example of filtering all text output to the terminal, by
74underlining all urls that matches a certain regex (i.e. some urls :). It
75is not very useful because urls that are output in multiple steps (e.g.
76when typing them) do not get marked.

93Argument names also often indicate the type of a parameter. Here are some
94hints on what they mean:

98=item $text
99
100Rxvt-unicodes special way of encoding text, where one "unicode" character
101always represents one screen cell. See L<row_t> for a discussion of this format.
102
103=item $string
104
105A perl text string, with an emphasis on I<text>. It can store all unicode
106characters and is to be distinguished with text encoded in a specific
107encoding (often locale-specific) and binary data.
108
109=item $octets
110
111Either binary data or - more common - a text string encoded in a
112locale-specific way.

222Called whenever text is about to be output, with the text as argument. You
223can filter/change and output the text yourself by returning a true value
224and calling C<< $term->scr_add_lines >> yourself. Please note that this
225might be very slow, however, as your hook is called for B<all> text being

628Write the given text string to the screen, as if output by the application
629running inside the terminal. It may not contain command sequences (escape
630codes), but is free to use line feeds, carriage returns and tabs. The
631string is a normal text string, not in locale-dependent encoding.

633Normally its not a good idea to use this function, as programs might be
634confused by changes in cursor position or scrolling. Its useful inside a
