23the directory specified by the C<perl-lib> resource will be additionally 24
24scanned. 25Scripts are compiled in a 'use strict' and 'use utf8' environment, and

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>.

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

126its not a real C<urxvt::term> object. Instead, the real C<urxvt::term>
127object that is shared between all packages is stored in the C<term>
128member.

58Called after a new terminal object has been initialized, but before 140Called after a new terminal object has been initialized, but before
59windows are created or the command gets run. 141windows are created or the command gets run. Most methods are unsafe to
142call or deliver senseless data, as terminal size and other characteristics
143have not yet been determined. You can safely query and change resources,
144though.

88 173
174=item on_sel_extend $term
175
176Called whenever the user tries to extend the selection (e.g. with a double
177click) and is either supposed to return false (normal operation), or
178should extend the selection itelf and return true to suppress the built-in
179processing.

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

128Called just after the screen gets redrawn. See C<on_refresh_begin>. 257Called just after the screen gets redrawn. See C<on_refresh_begin>.
129 258
259=item on_keyboard_command $term, $string
260
261Called whenever the user presses a key combination that has a
262C<perl:string> action bound to it (see description of the B<keysym>
263resource in the @@RXVT_NAME@@(1) manpage).

274
275Called whenever the corresponding X event is received for the terminal If
276the hook returns true, then the even will be ignored by rxvt-unicode.
277
278The event is a hash with most values as named by Xlib (see the XEvent
279manpage), with the additional members C<row> and C<col>, which are the row
280and column under the mouse cursor.

304=item $term = new urxvt [arg...]
305
306Creates a new terminal, very similar as if you had started it with
307C<system $binfile, arg...>. Croaks (and probably outputs an error message)
308if the new instance couldn't be created. Returns C<undef> if the new
309instance didn't initialise perl, and the terminal object otherwise. The

334
335Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font styles and
336similar information for each screen cell.
337
338The following "macros" deal with changes in rendition sets. You should
339never just create a bitset, you should always modify an existing one,
340as they contain important information required for correct operation of
341rxvt-unicode.

352Return the rendition mask used for overlays by default.
353
354=item $rendbit = urxvt::RS_Bold, RS_Italic, RS_Blink, RS_RVid, RS_Uline
355
356Return the bit that enabled bold, italic, blink, reverse-video and
357underline, respectively. To enable such a style, just logically OR it into
358the bitset.

682Write the given text string to the screen, as if output by the application
683running inside the terminal. It may not contain command sequences (escape
684codes), but is free to use line feeds, carriage returns and tabs. The
685string is a normal text string, not in locale-dependent encoding.
686
687Normally its not a good idea to use this function, as programs might be
688confused by changes in cursor position or scrolling. Its useful inside a
689C<on_add_lines> hook, though.
690
691=item $term->cmd_parse ($octets)

734
735Return various integers describing terminal characteristics.
736
737=item $view_start = $term->view_start ([$newvalue])
738
739Returns the negative row number of the topmost line. Minimum value is
740C<0>, which displays the normal terminal contents. Larger values scroll
741this many lines into the scrollback buffer.
742
743=item $term->want_refresh
744
745Requests a screen refresh. At the next opportunity, rxvt-unicode will
746compare the on-screen display with its stored representation. If they
747differ, it redraws the differences.
748
749Used after changing terminal contents to display them.
750
751=item $text = $term->ROW_t ($row_number[, $new_text[, $start_col]])
752
753Returns the text of the entire row with number C<$row_number>. Row C<0>
754is the topmost terminal line, row C<< $term->$ncol-1 >> is the bottommost
755terminal line. The scrollback buffer starts at line C<-1> and extends to
756line C<< -$term->nsaved >>. Nothing will be returned if a nonexistent line
757is requested.
758
759If C<$new_text> is specified, it will replace characters in the current
760line, starting at column C<$start_col> (default C<0>), which is useful
761to replace only parts of a line. The font index in the rendition will
762automatically be updated.
763
764C<$text> is in a special encoding: tabs and wide characters that use more
765than one cell when displayed are padded with urxvt::NOCHAR characters
766(C<chr 65535>). Characters with combining characters and other characters
767that do not fit into the normal tetx encoding will be replaced with
768characters in the private use area.
769
770You have to obey this encoding when changing text. The advantage is
771that C<substr> and similar functions work on screen cells and not on
772characters.
773
774The methods C<< $term->special_encode >> and C<< $term->special_decode >>
775can be used to convert normal strings into this encoding and vice versa.
776
777=item $rend = $term->ROW_r ($row_number[, $new_rend[, $start_col]])
778
779Like C<< $term->ROW_t >>, but returns an arrayref with rendition
780bitsets. Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font
781styles and similar information. See also C<< $term->ROW_t >>.
782
783When setting rendition, the font mask will be ignored.
784
785See the section on RENDITION, above.
786
787=item $length = $term->ROW_l ($row_number[, $new_length])
788
789Returns the number of screen cells that are in use ("the line
790length"). Unlike the urxvt core, this returns C<< $term->ncol >> if the
791line is joined with the following one.
792
793=item $bool = $term->is_longer ($row_number)
794
795Returns true if the row is part of a multiple-row logical "line" (i.e.
796joined with the following row), which means all characters are in use
797and it is continued on the next row (and possibly a continuation of the
798previous row(s)).
799
800=item $line = $term->line ($row_number)
801
802Create and return a new C<urxvt::line> object that stores information
803about the logical line that row C<$row_number> is part of. It supports the
804following methods:
805
806=over 4
807
808=item $text = $line->t ([$new_text])
809
810Returns or replaces the full text of the line, similar to C<ROW_t>
811
812=item $rend = $line->r ([$new_rend])
813
814Returns or replaces the full rendition array of the line, similar to C<ROW_r>
815
816=item $length = $line->l
817
818Returns the length of the line in cells, similar to C<ROW_l>.
819
820=item $rownum = $line->beg
821
822=item $rownum = $line->end
823
824Return the row number of the first/last row of the line, respectively.
825
826=item $offset = $line->offset_of ($row, $col)
827
828Returns the character offset of the given row|col pair within the logical
829line.
830
831=item ($row, $col) = $line->coord_of ($offset)
