20 =head1 DESCRIPTION
21
22 Every time a terminal object gets created, extension scripts specified via
23 the C<perl> resource are loaded and associated with it.
24
25 Scripts are compiled in a 'use strict' and 'use utf8' environment, and
26 thus must be encoded as UTF-8.
27
28 Each script will only ever be loaded once, even in @@RXVT_NAME@@d, where
29 scripts will be shared (but not enabled) for all terminals.
30
31 You can disable the embedded perl interpreter by setting both "perl-ext"
32 and "perl-ext-common" resources to the empty string.
33
34 =head1 PREPACKAGED EXTENSIONS
35
36 This section describes the extensions delivered with this release. You can
37 find them in F<@@RXVT_LIBDIR@@/urxvt/perl/>.
38
39 You can activate them like this:
40
41 @@RXVT_NAME@@ -pe <extensionname>
42
43 Or by adding them to the resource for extensions loaded by default:
44
45 URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,selection-autotransform
46
47 =over 4
48
49 =item selection (enabled by default)
50
51 (More) intelligent selection. This extension tries to be more intelligent
52 when the user extends selections (double-click and further clicks). Right
53 now, it tries to select words, urls and complete shell-quoted
54 arguments, which is very convenient, too, if your F<ls> supports
55 C<--quoting-style=shell>.
56
57 A double-click usually selects the word under the cursor, further clicks
58 will enlarge the selection.
59
60 The selection works by trying to match a number of regexes and displaying
61 them in increasing order of length. You can add your own regexes by
62 specifying resources of the form:
63
64 URxvt.selection.pattern-0: perl-regex
65 URxvt.selection.pattern-1: perl-regex
66 ...
67
68 The index number (0, 1...) must not have any holes, and each regex must
69 contain at least one pair of capturing parentheses, which will be used for
70 the match. For example, the following adds a regex that matches everything
71 between two vertical bars:
72
73 URxvt.selection.pattern-0: \\|([^|]+)\\|
74
75 Another example: Programs I use often output "absolute path: " at the
76 beginning of a line when they process multiple files. The following
77 pattern matches the filename (note, there is a single space at the very
78 end):
79
80 URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ^(/[^:]+):\
81
82 You can look at the source of the selection extension to see more
83 interesting uses, such as parsing a line from beginning to end.
84
85 This extension also offers following bindable keyboard commands:
86
87 =over 4
88
89 =item rot13
90
91 Rot-13 the selection when activated. Used via keyboard trigger:
92
93 URxvt.keysym.C-M-r: perl:selection:rot13
94
95 =back
96
97 =item option-popup (enabled by default)
98
99 Binds a popup menu to Ctrl-Button2 that lets you toggle (some) options at
100 runtime.
101
102 Other extensions can extend this popup menu by pushing a code reference
103 onto C<@{ $term->{option_popup_hook} }>, which gets called whenever the
104 popup is being displayed.
105
106 Its sole argument is the popup menu, which can be modified. It should
107 either return nothing or a string, the initial boolean value and a code
108 reference. The string will be used as button text and the code reference
109 will be called when the toggle changes, with the new boolean value as
110 first argument.
111
112 The following will add an entry C<myoption> that changes
113 C<< $self->{myoption} >>:
114
115 push @{ $self->{term}{option_popup_hook} }, sub {
116 ("my option" => $myoption, sub { $self->{myoption} = $_[0] })
117 };
118
119 =item selection-popup (enabled by default)
120
121 Binds a popup menu to Ctrl-Button3 that lets you convert the selection
122 text into various other formats/action (such as uri unescaping, perl
123 evaluation, web-browser starting etc.), depending on content.
124
125 Other extensions can extend this popup menu by pushing a code reference
126 onto C<@{ $term->{selection_popup_hook} }>, which gets called whenever the
127 popup is being displayed.
128
129 Its sole argument is the popup menu, which can be modified. The selection
130 is in C<$_>, which can be used to decide whether to add something or not.
131 It should either return nothing or a string and a code reference. The
132 string will be used as button text and the code reference will be called
133 when the button gets activated and should transform C<$_>.
134
135 The following will add an entry C<a to b> that transforms all C<a>s in
136 the selection to C<b>s, but only if the selection currently contains any
137 C<a>s:
138
139 push @{ $self->{term}{selection_popup_hook} }, sub {
140 /a/ ? ("a to b" => sub { s/a/b/g }
141 : ()
142 };
143
144 =item searchable-scrollback<hotkey> (enabled by default)
145
146 Adds regex search functionality to the scrollback buffer, triggered
147 by a hotkey (default: C<M-s>). While in search mode, normal terminal
148 input/output is suspended and a regex is displayed at the bottom of the
149 screen.
150
151 Inputting characters appends them to the regex and continues incremental
152 search. C<BackSpace> removes a character from the regex, C<Up> and C<Down>
153 search upwards/downwards in the scrollback buffer, C<End> jumps to the
154 bottom. C<Escape> leaves search mode and returns to the point where search
155 was started, while C<Enter> or C<Return> stay at the current position and
156 additionally stores the first match in the current line into the primary
157 selection if the C<Shift> modifier is active.
158
159 The regex defaults to "(?i)", resulting in a case-insensitive search. To
160 get a case-sensitive search you can delete this prefix using C<BackSpace>
161 or simply use an uppercase character which removes the "(?i)" prefix.
162
163 See L<perlre> for more info about perl regular expression syntax.
164
165 =item readline (enabled by default)
166
167 A support package that tries to make editing with readline easier. At
168 the moment, it reacts to clicking shift-left mouse button by trying to
169 move the text cursor to this position. It does so by generating as many
170 cursor-left or cursor-right keypresses as required (this only works
171 for programs that correctly support wide characters).
172
173 To avoid too many false positives, this is only done when:
174
175 =over 4
176
177 =item - the tty is in ICANON state.
178
179 =item - the text cursor is visible.
180
181 =item - the primary screen is currently being displayed.
182
183 =item - the mouse is on the same (multi-row-) line as the text cursor.
184
185 =back
186
187 The normal selection mechanism isn't disabled, so quick successive clicks
188 might interfere with selection creation in harmless ways.
189
190 =item selection-autotransform
191
192 This selection allows you to do automatic transforms on a selection
193 whenever a selection is made.
194
195 It works by specifying perl snippets (most useful is a single C<s///>
196 operator) that modify C<$_> as resources:
197
198 URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: transform
199 URxvt.selection-autotransform.1: transform
200 ...
201
202 For example, the following will transform selections of the form
203 C<filename:number>, often seen in compiler messages, into C<vi +$filename
204 $word>:
205
206 URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^([^:[:space:]]+):(\\d+):?$/vi +$2 \\Q$1\\E\\x0d/
207
208 And this example matches the same,but replaces it with vi-commands you can
209 paste directly into your (vi :) editor:
210
211 URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^([^:[:space:]]+(\\d+):?$/:e \\Q$1\\E\\x0d:$2\\x0d/
212
213 Of course, this can be modified to suit your needs and your editor :)
214
215 To expand the example above to typical perl error messages ("XXX at
216 FILENAME line YYY."), you need a slightly more elaborate solution:
217
218 URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ( at .*? line \\d+[,.])
219 URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^ at (.*?) line (\\d+)[,.]$/:e \\Q$1\E\\x0d:$2\\x0d/
220
221 The first line tells the selection code to treat the unchanging part of
222 every error message as a selection pattern, and the second line transforms
223 the message into vi commands to load the file.
224
225 =item tabbed
226
227 This transforms the terminal into a tabbar with additional terminals, that
228 is, it implements what is commonly referred to as "tabbed terminal". The topmost line
229 displays a "[NEW]" button, which, when clicked, will add a new tab, followed by one
230 button per tab.
231
232 Clicking a button will activate that tab. Pressing B<Shift-Left> and
233 B<Shift-Right> will switch to the tab left or right of the current one,
234 while B<Shift-Down> creates a new tab.
235
236 The tabbar itself can be configured similarly to a normal terminal, but
237 with a resource class of C<URxvt.tabbed>. In addition, it supports the
238 following four resources (shown with defaults):
239
240 URxvt.tabbed.tabbar-fg: <colour-index, default 3>
241 URxvt.tabbed.tabbar-bg: <colour-index, default 0>
242 URxvt.tabbed.tab-fg: <colour-index, default 0>
243 URxvt.tabbed.tab-bg: <colour-index, default 1>
244
245 See I<COLOR AND GRAPHICS> in the @@RXVT_NAME@@(1) manpage for valid
246 indices.
247
248 =item matcher
249
250 Uses per-line display filtering (C<on_line_update>) to underline text
251 matching a certain pattern and make it clickable. When clicked with the
252 mouse button specified in the C<matcher.button> resource (default 2, or
253 middle), the program specified in the C<matcher.launcher> resource
254 (default, the C<urlLauncher> resource, C<sensible-browser>) will be started
255 with the matched text as first argument. The default configuration is
256 suitable for matching URLs and launching a web browser, like the
257 former "mark-urls" extension.
258
259 The default pattern to match URLs can be overridden with the
260 C<matcher.pattern.0> resource, and additional patterns can be specified
261 with numbered patterns, in a manner similar to the "selection" extension.
262 The launcher can also be overridden on a per-pattern basis.
263
264 It is possible to activate the most recently seen match or a list of matches
265 from the keyboard. Simply bind a keysym to "perl:matcher:last" or
266 "perl:matcher:list" as seen in the example below.
267
268 Example configuration:
269
270 URxvt.perl-ext: default,matcher
271 URxvt.urlLauncher: sensible-browser
272 URxvt.keysym.C-Delete: perl:matcher:last
273 URxvt.keysym.M-Delete: perl:matcher:list
274 URxvt.matcher.button: 1
275 URxvt.matcher.pattern.1: \\bwww\\.[\\w-]+\\.[\\w./?&@#-]*[\\w/-]
276 URxvt.matcher.pattern.2: \\B(/\\S+?):(\\d+)(?=:|$)
277 URxvt.matcher.launcher.2: gvim +$2 $1
278
279 =item xim-onthespot
280
281 This (experimental) perl extension implements OnTheSpot editing. It does
282 not work perfectly, and some input methods don't seem to work well with
283 OnTheSpot editing in general, but it seems to work at least for SCIM and
284 kinput2.
285
286 You enable it by specifying this extension and a preedit style of
287 C<OnTheSpot>, i.e.:
288
289 @@RXVT_NAME@@ -pt OnTheSpot -pe xim-onthespot
290
291 =item kuake<hotkey>
292
293 A very primitive quake-console-like extension. It was inspired by a
294 description of how the programs C<kuake> and C<yakuake> work: Whenever the
295 user presses a global accelerator key (by default C<F10>), the terminal
296 will show or hide itself. Another press of the accelerator key will hide
297 or show it again.
298
299 Initially, the window will not be shown when using this extension.
300
301 This is useful if you need a single terminal that is not using any desktop
302 space most of the time but is quickly available at the press of a key.
303
304 The accelerator key is grabbed regardless of any modifiers, so this
305 extension will actually grab a physical key just for this function.
306
307 If you want a quake-like animation, tell your window manager to do so
308 (fvwm can do it).
309
310 =item overlay-osc
311
312 This extension implements some OSC commands to display timed popups on the
313 screen - useful for status displays from within scripts. You have to read
314 the sources for more info.
315
316 =item block-graphics-to-ascii
317
318 A not very useful example of filtering all text output to the terminal
319 by replacing all line-drawing characters (U+2500 .. U+259F) by a
320 similar-looking ascii character.
321
322 =item digital-clock
323
324 Displays a digital clock using the built-in overlay.
325
326 =item remote-clipboard
327
328 Somewhat of a misnomer, this extension adds two menu entries to the
329 selection popup that allows one to run external commands to store the
330 selection somewhere and fetch it again.
331
332 We use it to implement a "distributed selection mechanism", which just
333 means that one command uploads the file to a remote server, and another
334 reads it.
335
336 The commands can be set using the C<URxvt.remote-selection.store> and
337 C<URxvt.remote-selection.fetch> resources. The first should read the
338 selection to store from STDIN (always in UTF-8), the second should provide
339 the selection data on STDOUT (also in UTF-8).
340
341 The defaults (which are likely useless to you) use rsh and cat:
342
343 URxvt.remote-selection.store: rsh ruth 'cat >/tmp/distributed-selection'
344 URxvt.remote-selection.fetch: rsh ruth 'cat /tmp/distributed-selection'
345
346 =item selection-pastebin
347
348 This is a little rarely useful extension that uploads the selection as
349 textfile to a remote site (or does other things). (The implementation is
350 not currently secure for use in a multiuser environment as it writes to
351 F</tmp> directly.).
352
353 It listens to the C<selection-pastebin:remote-pastebin> keyboard command,
354 i.e.
355
356 URxvt.keysym.C-M-e: perl:selection-pastebin:remote-pastebin
357
358 Pressing this combination runs a command with C<%> replaced by the name of
359 the textfile. This command can be set via a resource:
360
361 URxvt.selection-pastebin.cmd: rsync -apP % ruth:/var/www/www.ta-sa.org/files/txt/.
362
363 And the default is likely not useful to anybody but the few people around
364 here :)
365
366 The name of the textfile is the hex encoded md5 sum of the selection, so
367 the same content should lead to the same filename.
368
369 After a successful upload the selection will be replaced by the text given
370 in the C<selection-pastebin-url> resource (again, the % is the placeholder
371 for the filename):
372
373 URxvt.selection-pastebin.url: http://www.ta-sa.org/files/txt/%
374
375 I<Note to xrdb users:> xrdb uses the C preprocessor, which might interpret
376 the double C</> characters as comment start. Use C<\057\057> instead,
377 which works regardless of whether xrdb is used to parse the resource file
378 or not.
379
380 =item macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
381
382 These two modules implement an extended clipboard for Mac OS X. They are
383 used like this:
384
385 URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,macosx-clipboard
386 URxvt.keysym.M-c: perl:macosx-clipboard:copy
387 URxvt.keysym.M-v: perl:macosx-clipboard:paste
388
389 The difference between them is that the native variant requires a
390 perl from apple's devkit or so, and C<macosx-clipboard> requires the
391 C<Mac::Pasteboard> module, works with other perls, has fewer bugs, is
392 simpler etc. etc.
393
394 =item example-refresh-hooks
395
396 Displays a very simple digital clock in the upper right corner of the
397 window. Illustrates overwriting the refresh callbacks to create your own
398 overlays or changes.
399
400 =item confirm-paste
401
402 Displays a confirmation dialog when a paste containing at least a full
403 line is detected.

407 =head1 API DOCUMENTATION
408
409 =head2 General API Considerations
410
411 All objects (such as terminals, time watchers etc.) are typical
412 reference-to-hash objects. The hash can be used to store anything you
413 like. All members starting with an underscore (such as C<_ptr> or
414 C<_hook>) are reserved for internal uses and B<MUST NOT> be accessed or
415 modified).
416
417 When objects are destroyed on the C++ side, the perl object hashes are
418 emptied, so its best to store related objects such as time watchers and
419 the like inside the terminal object so they get destroyed as soon as the
420 terminal is destroyed.
421
422 Argument names also often indicate the type of a parameter. Here are some
423 hints on what they mean:
424
425 =over 4
426
427 =item $text
428
429 Rxvt-unicode's special way of encoding text, where one "unicode" character
430 always represents one screen cell. See L<ROW_t> for a discussion of this format.
431
432 =item $string
433
434 A perl text string, with an emphasis on I<text>. It can store all unicode
435 characters and is to be distinguished with text encoded in a specific
436 encoding (often locale-specific) and binary data.
437
438 =item $octets
439
440 Either binary data or - more common - a text string encoded in a
441 locale-specific way.
442
443 =back
444
445 =head2 Extension Objects
446
447 Every perl extension is a perl class. A separate perl object is created
448 for each terminal, and each terminal has its own set of extension objects,
449 which are passed as the first parameter to hooks. So extensions can use
450 their C<$self> object without having to think about clashes with other
451 extensions or other terminals, with the exception of methods and members
452 that begin with an underscore character C<_>: these are reserved for
453 internal use.
454
455 Although it isn't a C<urxvt::term> object, you can call all methods of the
456 C<urxvt::term> class on this object.
457
458 It has the following methods and data members:
459
460 =over 4
461
462 =item $urxvt_term = $self->{term}
463
464 Returns the C<urxvt::term> object associated with this instance of the
465 extension. This member I<must not> be changed in any way.
466
467 =item $self->enable ($hook_name => $cb, [$hook_name => $cb..])
468
469 Dynamically enable the given hooks (named without the C<on_> prefix) for
470 this extension, replacing any previous hook. This is useful when you want
471 to overwrite time-critical hooks only temporarily.
472
473 =item $self->disable ($hook_name[, $hook_name..])
474
475 Dynamically disable the given hooks.
476
477 =back
478
479 =head2 Hooks
480
481 The following subroutines can be declared in extension files, and will be
482 called whenever the relevant event happens.
483
484 The first argument passed to them is an extension object as described in
485 the in the C<Extension Objects> section.
486
487 B<All> of these hooks must return a boolean value. If any of the called
488 hooks returns true, then the event counts as being I<consumed>, and the
489 relevant action might not be carried out by the C++ code.
490
491 I<< When in doubt, return a false value (preferably C<()>). >>
492
493 =over 4
494
495 =item on_init $term
496
497 Called after a new terminal object has been initialized, but before
498 windows are created or the command gets run. Most methods are unsafe to
499 call or deliver senseless data, as terminal size and other characteristics
500 have not yet been determined. You can safely query and change resources
501 and options, though. For many purposes the C<on_start> hook is a better
502 place.
503
504 =item on_start $term
505
506 Called at the very end of initialisation of a new terminal, just before
507 trying to map (display) the toplevel and returning to the main loop.
508
509 =item on_destroy $term
510
511 Called whenever something tries to destroy terminal, when the terminal is
512 still fully functional (not for long, though).
513
514 =item on_reset $term
515
516 Called after the screen is "reset" for any reason, such as resizing or
517 control sequences. Here is where you can react on changes to size-related
518 variables.
519
520 =item on_child_start $term, $pid
521
522 Called just after the child process has been C<fork>ed.
523
524 =item on_child_exit $term, $status
525
526 Called just after the child process has exited. C<$status> is the status
527 from C<waitpid>.
528
529 =item on_sel_make $term, $eventtime
530
531 Called whenever a selection has been made by the user, but before the
532 selection text is copied, so changes to the beginning, end or type of the
533 selection will be honored.
534
535 Returning a true value aborts selection making by urxvt, in which case you
536 have to make a selection yourself by calling C<< $term->selection_grab >>.
537
538 =item on_sel_grab $term, $eventtime
539
540 Called whenever a selection has been copied, but before the selection is
541 requested from the server. The selection text can be queried and changed
542 by calling C<< $term->selection >>.
543
544 Returning a true value aborts selection grabbing. It will still be highlighted.
545
546 =item on_sel_extend $term
547
548 Called whenever the user tries to extend the selection (e.g. with a double
549 click) and is either supposed to return false (normal operation), or
550 should extend the selection itself and return true to suppress the built-in
551 processing. This can happen multiple times, as long as the callback
552 returns true, it will be called on every further click by the user and is
553 supposed to enlarge the selection more and more, if possible.
554
555 See the F<selection> example extension.
556
557 =item on_view_change $term, $offset
558
559 Called whenever the view offset changes, i.e. the user or program
560 scrolls. Offset C<0> means display the normal terminal, positive values
561 show this many lines of scrollback.
562
563 =item on_scroll_back $term, $lines, $saved
564
565 Called whenever lines scroll out of the terminal area into the scrollback
566 buffer. C<$lines> is the number of lines scrolled out and may be larger
567 than the scroll back buffer or the terminal.
568
569 It is called before lines are scrolled out (so rows 0 .. min ($lines - 1,
570 $nrow - 1) represent the lines to be scrolled out). C<$saved> is the total
571 number of lines that will be in the scrollback buffer.
572
573 =item on_osc_seq $term, $op, $args, $resp
574
575 Called on every OSC sequence and can be used to suppress it or modify its
576 behaviour. The default should be to return an empty list. A true value
577 suppresses execution of the request completely. Make sure you don't get
578 confused by recursive invocations when you output an OSC sequence within
579 this callback.
580
581 C<on_osc_seq_perl> should be used for new behaviour.
582
583 =item on_osc_seq_perl $term, $args, $resp
584
585 Called whenever the B<ESC ] 777 ; string ST> command sequence (OSC =
586 operating system command) is processed. Cursor position and other state
587 information is up-to-date when this happens. For interoperability, the
588 string should start with the extension name (sans -osc) and a semicolon,
589 to distinguish it from commands for other extensions, and this might be
590 enforced in the future.
591
592 For example, C<overlay-osc> uses this:
593
594 sub on_osc_seq_perl {
595 my ($self, $osc, $resp) = @_;
596
597 return unless $osc =~ s/^overlay;//;
598
599 ... process remaining $osc string
600 }
601
602 Be careful not ever to trust (in a security sense) the data you receive,
603 as its source can not easily be controlled (e-mail content, messages from
604 other users on the same system etc.).
605
606 For responses, C<$resp> contains the end-of-args separator used by the
607 sender.
608
609 =item on_add_lines $term, $string
610
611 Called whenever text is about to be output, with the text as argument. You
612 can filter/change and output the text yourself by returning a true value
613 and calling C<< $term->scr_add_lines >> yourself. Please note that this
614 might be very slow, however, as your hook is called for B<all> text being
615 output.
616
617 =item on_tt_write $term, $octets
618
619 Called whenever some data is written to the tty/pty and can be used to
620 suppress or filter tty input.
621
622 =item on_tt_paste $term, $octets
623
624 Called whenever text is about to be pasted, with the text as argument. You
625 can filter/change and paste the text yourself by returning a true value
626 and calling C<< $term->tt_paste >> yourself. C<$octets> is
627 locale-encoded.
628
629 =item on_line_update $term, $row
630
631 Called whenever a line was updated or changed. Can be used to filter
632 screen output (e.g. underline urls or other useless stuff). Only lines
633 that are being shown will be filtered, and, due to performance reasons,
634 not always immediately.
635
636 The row number is always the topmost row of the line if the line spans
637 multiple rows.
638
639 Please note that, if you change the line, then the hook might get called
640 later with the already-modified line (e.g. if unrelated parts change), so
641 you cannot just toggle rendition bits, but only set them.
642
643 =item on_refresh_begin $term
644
645 Called just before the screen gets redrawn. Can be used for overlay or
646 similar effects by modifying the terminal contents in refresh_begin, and
647 restoring them in refresh_end. The built-in overlay and selection display
648 code is run after this hook, and takes precedence.
649
650 =item on_refresh_end $term
651
652 Called just after the screen gets redrawn. See C<on_refresh_begin>.
653
654 =item on_user_command $term, $string
655
656 Called whenever a user-configured event is being activated (e.g. via
657 a C<perl:string> action bound to a key, see description of the B<keysym>
658 resource in the @@RXVT_NAME@@(1) manpage).
659
660 The event is simply the action string. This interface is assumed to change
661 slightly in the future.
662
663 =item on_resize_all_windows $term, $new_width, $new_height
664
665 Called just after the new window size has been calculated, but before
666 windows are actually being resized or hints are being set. If this hook
667 returns TRUE, setting of the window hints is being skipped.
668
669 =item on_x_event $term, $event
670
671 Called on every X event received on the vt window (and possibly other
672 windows). Should only be used as a last resort. Most event structure
673 members are not passed.
674
675 =item on_root_event $term, $event
676
677 Like C<on_x_event>, but is called for events on the root window.
678
679 =item on_focus_in $term
680
681 Called whenever the window gets the keyboard focus, before rxvt-unicode
682 does focus in processing.
683
684 =item on_focus_out $term
685
686 Called whenever the window loses keyboard focus, before rxvt-unicode does
687 focus out processing.
688
689 =item on_configure_notify $term, $event
690
691 =item on_property_notify $term, $event
692
693 =item on_key_press $term, $event, $keysym, $octets

702
703 =item on_map_notify $term, $event
704
705 =item on_unmap_notify $term, $event
706
707 Called whenever the corresponding X event is received for the terminal. If
708 the hook returns true, then the event will be ignored by rxvt-unicode.
709
710 The event is a hash with most values as named by Xlib (see the XEvent
711 manpage), with the additional members C<row> and C<col>, which are the
712 (real, not screen-based) row and column under the mouse cursor.
713
714 C<on_key_press> additionally receives the string rxvt-unicode would
715 output, if any, in locale-specific encoding.

720
721 =item on_wm_protocols $term, $event

723 =item on_wm_delete_window $term, $event
724
725 Called when various types of ClientMessage events are received (all with
726 format=32, WM_PROTOCOLS or WM_PROTOCOLS:WM_DELETE_WINDOW).
727
728 =item on_bell $term

762
763 =item $urxvt::LIBDIR
764
765 The rxvt-unicode library directory, where, among other things, the perl
766 modules and scripts are stored.
767
768 =item $urxvt::RESCLASS, $urxvt::RESCLASS
769
770 The resource class and name rxvt-unicode uses to look up X resources.
771
772 =item $urxvt::RXVTNAME
773
774 The basename of the installed binaries, usually C<urxvt>.
775
776 =item $urxvt::TERM
777
778 The current terminal. This variable stores the current C<urxvt::term>
779 object, whenever a callback/hook is executing.
780
781 =item @urxvt::TERM_INIT
782
783 All code references in this array will be called as methods of the next newly
784 created C<urxvt::term> object (during the C<on_init> phase). The array
785 gets cleared before the code references that were in it are being executed,
786 so references can push themselves onto it again if they so desire.
787
788 This complements to the perl-eval command line option, but gets executed
789 first.
790
791 =item @urxvt::TERM_EXT
792
793 Works similar to C<@TERM_INIT>, but contains perl package/class names, which
794 get registered as normal extensions after calling the hooks in C<@TERM_INIT>
795 but before other extensions. Gets cleared just like C<@TERM_INIT>.

800
801 =over 4
802
803 =item urxvt::fatal $errormessage
804
805 Fatally aborts execution with the given error message (which should
806 include a trailing newline). Avoid at all costs! The only time this
807 is acceptable (and useful) is in the init hook, where it prevents the
808 terminal from starting up.
809
810 =item urxvt::warn $string
811
812 Calls C<rxvt_warn> with the given string which should include a trailing
813 newline. The module also overwrites the C<warn> builtin with a function
814 that calls this function.
815
816 Using this function has the advantage that its output ends up in the
817 correct place, e.g. on stderr of the connecting urxvtc client.
818
819 Messages have a size limit of 1023 bytes currently.
820
821 =item @terms = urxvt::termlist
822
823 Returns all urxvt::term objects that exist in this process, regardless of
824 whether they are started, being destroyed etc., so be careful. Only term
825 objects that have perl extensions attached will be returned (because there
826 is no urxvt::term object associated with others).
827

859
860 Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font styles and
861 similar information for each screen cell.
862
863 The following "macros" deal with changes in rendition sets. You should
864 never just create a bitset, you should always modify an existing one,
865 as they contain important information required for correct operation of
866 rxvt-unicode.
867
868 =over 4
869
870 =item $rend = urxvt::DEFAULT_RSTYLE
871
872 Returns the default rendition, as used when the terminal is starting up or
873 being reset. Useful as a base to start when creating renditions.
874
875 =item $rend = urxvt::OVERLAY_RSTYLE
876
877 Return the rendition mask used for overlays by default.
878
879 =item $rendbit = urxvt::RS_Bold, urxvt::RS_Italic, urxvt::RS_Blink,
880 urxvt::RS_RVid, urxvt::RS_Uline
881
882 Return the bit that enabled bold, italic, blink, reverse-video and
883 underline, respectively. To enable such a style, just logically OR it into
884 the bitset.
885
886 =item $foreground = urxvt::GET_BASEFG $rend
887
888 =item $background = urxvt::GET_BASEBG $rend

898 Replace the foreground/background colour in the rendition mask with the
899 specified one.
900
901 =item $value = urxvt::GET_CUSTOM $rend
902
903 Return the "custom" value: Every rendition has 5 bits for use by
904 extensions. They can be set and changed as you like and are initially
905 zero.
906
907 =item $rend = urxvt::SET_CUSTOM $rend, $new_value

1253 =item $term = new urxvt::term $envhashref, $rxvtname, [arg...]
1254
1255 Creates a new terminal, very similar as if you had started it with system
1256 C<$rxvtname, arg...>. C<$envhashref> must be a reference to a C<%ENV>-like
1257 hash which defines the environment of the new terminal.
1258
1259 Croaks (and probably outputs an error message) if the new instance
1260 couldn't be created. Returns C<undef> if the new instance didn't
1261 initialise perl, and the terminal object otherwise. The C<init> and
1262 C<start> hooks will be called before this call returns, and are free to
1263 refer to global data (which is race free).

1278 Destroy the terminal object (close the window, free resources

1280 watchers (timers, io watchers) are still active.
1281
1282 =item $term->exec_async ($cmd[, @args])
1283
1284 Works like the combination of the C<fork>/C<exec> builtins, which executes
1285 ("starts") programs in the background. This function takes care of setting
1286 the user environment before exec'ing the command (e.g. C<PATH>) and should
1287 be preferred over explicit calls to C<exec> or C<system>.
1288
1289 Returns the pid of the subprocess or C<undef> on error.

1311 C<%urxvt::OPTION>. Options not enabled in this binary are not in the hash.

1324 =item $value = $term->resource ($name[, $newval])
1325
1326 Returns the current resource value associated with a given name and
1327 optionally sets a new value. Setting values is most useful in the C<init>
1328 hook. Unset resources are returned and accepted as C<undef>.
1329
1330 The new value must be properly encoded to a suitable character encoding
1331 before passing it to this method. Similarly, the returned value may need
1332 to be converted from the used encoding to text.
1333
1334 Resource names are as defined in F<src/rsinc.h>. Colours can be specified
1335 as resource names of the form C<< color+<index> >>, e.g. C<color+5>. (will
1336 likely change).
1337
1338 Please note that resource strings will currently only be freed when the
1339 terminal is destroyed, so changing options frequently will eat memory.

1367
1368 =item $value = $term->x_resource ($pattern)
1369
1370 Returns the X-Resource for the given pattern, excluding the program or
1371 class name, i.e. C<< $term->x_resource ("boldFont") >> should return the
1372 same value as used by this instance of rxvt-unicode. Returns C<undef> if no
1373 resource with that pattern exists.
1374
1375 This method should only be called during the C<on_start> hook, as there is
1376 only one resource database per display, and later invocations might return
1377 the wrong resources.
1378
1379 =item $success = $term->parse_keysym ($keysym_spec, $command_string)
1380
1381 Adds a keymap translation exactly as specified via a resource. See the
1382 C<keysym> resource in the @@RXVT_NAME@@(1) manpage.
1383
1384 =item $rend = $term->rstyle ([$new_rstyle])
1385
1386 Return and optionally change the current rendition. Text that is output by
1387 the terminal application will use this style.
1388
1389 =item ($row, $col) = $term->screen_cur ([$row, $col])
1390
1391 Return the current coordinates of the text cursor position and optionally
1392 set it (which is usually bad as applications don't expect that).
1393
1394 =item ($row, $col) = $term->selection_mark ([$row, $col])
1395
1396 =item ($row, $col) = $term->selection_beg ([$row, $col])
1397
1398 =item ($row, $col) = $term->selection_end ([$row, $col])
1399
1400 Return the current values of the selection mark, begin or end positions.
1401
1402 When arguments are given, then the selection coordinates are set to
1403 C<$row> and C<$col>, and the selection screen is set to the current
1404 screen.
1405
1406 =item $screen = $term->selection_screen ([$screen])
1407
1408 Returns the current selection screen, and then optionally sets it.
1409
1410 =item $term->selection_make ($eventtime[, $rectangular])
1411
1412 Tries to make a selection as set by C<selection_beg> and
1413 C<selection_end>. If C<$rectangular> is true (default: false), a
1414 rectangular selection will be made. This is the preferred function to make
1415 a selection.
1416
1417 =item $success = $term->selection_grab ($eventtime[, $clipboard])
1418
1419 Try to acquire ownership of the primary (clipboard if C<$clipboard> is
1420 true) selection from the server. The corresponding text can be set
1421 with the next method. No visual feedback will be given. This function
1422 is mostly useful from within C<on_sel_grab> hooks.
1423
1424 =item $oldtext = $term->selection ([$newtext, $clipboard])
1425
1426 Return the current selection (clipboard if C<$clipboard> is true) text
1427 and optionally replace it by C<$newtext>.
1428
1429 =item $term->selection_clear ([$clipboard])
1430
1431 Revoke ownership of the primary (clipboard if C<$clipboard> is true) selection.
1432
1433 =item $term->overlay_simple ($x, $y, $text)

1448
1449 $overlay
1450 }
1451
1452 =item $term->overlay ($x, $y, $width, $height[, $rstyle[, $border]])
1453
1454 Create a new (empty) overlay at the given position with the given
1455 width/height. C<$rstyle> defines the initial rendition style
1456 (default: C<OVERLAY_RSTYLE>).
1457
1458 If C<$border> is C<2> (default), then a decorative border will be put
1459 around the box.
1460
1461 If either C<$x> or C<$y> is negative, then this is counted from the
1462 right/bottom side, respectively.
1463
1464 This method returns an urxvt::overlay object. The overlay will be visible
1465 as long as the perl object is referenced.
1466
1467 The methods currently supported on C<urxvt::overlay> objects are:
1468
1469 =over 4
1470
1471 =item $overlay->set ($x, $y, $text[, $rend])
1472
1473 Similar to C<< $term->ROW_t >> and C<< $term->ROW_r >> in that it puts
1474 text in rxvt-unicode's special encoding and an array of rendition values
1475 at a specific position inside the overlay.
1476
1477 If C<$rend> is missing, then the rendition will not be changed.
1478
1479 =item $overlay->hide
1480
1481 If visible, hide the overlay, but do not destroy it.
1482
1483 =item $overlay->show
1484
1485 If hidden, display the overlay again.
1486
1487 =back
1488
1489 =item $popup = $term->popup ($event)
1490
1491 Creates a new C<urxvt::popup> object that implements a popup menu. The
1492 C<$event> I<must> be the event causing the menu to pop up (a button event,
1493 currently).
1494
1495 =cut
1496
1497 sub popup {
1498 my ($self, $event) = @_;

1511 Scalar::Util::weaken $self->{_destroy}{$popup};
1512
1513 $popup
1514 }
1515
1516 =item $cellwidth = $term->strwidth ($string)
1517
1518 Returns the number of screen-cells this string would need. Correctly
1519 accounts for wide and combining characters.
1520
1521 =item $octets = $term->locale_encode ($string)
1522
1523 Convert the given text string into the corresponding locale encoding.
1524
1525 =item $string = $term->locale_decode ($octets)
1526
1527 Convert the given locale-encoded octets into a perl string.
1528
1529 =item $term->scr_xor_span ($beg_row, $beg_col, $end_row, $end_col[, $rstyle])
1530
1531 XORs the rendition values in the given span with the provided value
1532 (default: C<RS_RVid>), which I<MUST NOT> contain font styles. Useful in
1533 refresh hooks to provide effects similar to the selection.
1534
1535 =item $term->scr_xor_rect ($beg_row, $beg_col, $end_row, $end_col[, $rstyle1[, $rstyle2]])
1536
1537 Similar to C<scr_xor_span>, but xors a rectangle instead. Trailing
1538 whitespace will additionally be xored with the C<$rstyle2>, which defaults
1539 to C<RS_RVid | RS_Uline>, which removes reverse video again and underlines
1540 it instead. Both styles I<MUST NOT> contain font styles.
1541
1542 =item $term->scr_bell
1543
1544 Ring the bell!
1545
1546 =item $term->scr_add_lines ($string)
1547
1548 Write the given text string to the screen, as if output by the application
1549 running inside the terminal. It may not contain command sequences (escape
1550 codes), but is free to use line feeds, carriage returns and tabs. The
1551 string is a normal text string, not in locale-dependent encoding.
1552
1553 Normally its not a good idea to use this function, as programs might be
1554 confused by changes in cursor position or scrolling. Its useful inside a
1555 C<on_add_lines> hook, though.
1556
1557 =item $term->scr_change_screen ($screen)
1558
1559 Switch to given screen - 0 primary, 1 secondary.
1560
1561 =item $term->cmd_parse ($octets)
1562
1563 Similar to C<scr_add_lines>, but the argument must be in the
1564 locale-specific encoding of the terminal and can contain command sequences
1565 (escape codes) that will be interpreted.
1566
1567 =item $term->tt_write ($octets)
1568
1569 Write the octets given in C<$octets> to the tty (i.e. as program input). To
1570 pass characters instead of octets, you should convert your strings first
1571 to the locale-specific encoding using C<< $term->locale_encode >>.
1572
1573 =item $term->tt_paste ($octets)
1574
1575 Write the octets given in C<$octets> to the tty as a paste, converting NL to
1576 CR and bracketing the data with control sequences if bracketed paste mode
1577 is set.
1578
1579 =item $old_events = $term->pty_ev_events ([$new_events])
1580
1581 Replaces the event mask of the pty watcher by the given event mask. Can
1582 be used to suppress input and output handling to the pty/tty. See the
1583 description of C<< urxvt::timer->events >>. Make sure to always restore
1584 the previous value.
1585
1586 =item $fd = $term->pty_fd
1587
1588 Returns the master file descriptor for the pty in use, or C<-1> if no pty
1589 is used.
1590
1591 =item $windowid = $term->parent
1592
1593 Return the window id of the toplevel window.
1594
1595 =item $windowid = $term->vt
1596
1597 Return the window id of the terminal window.
1598
1599 =item $term->vt_emask_add ($x_event_mask)
1600
1601 Adds the specified events to the vt event mask. Useful e.g. when you want
1602 to receive pointer events all the times:
1603
1604 $term->vt_emask_add (urxvt::PointerMotionMask);
1605
1606 =item $term->focus_in
1607
1608 =item $term->focus_out
1609
1610 =item $term->key_press ($state, $keycode[, $time])

1639
1640 Return various integers describing terminal characteristics.
1641
1642 =item $x_display = $term->display_id
1643
1644 Return the DISPLAY used by rxvt-unicode.
1645
1646 =item $lc_ctype = $term->locale
1647
1648 Returns the LC_CTYPE category string used by this rxvt-unicode.
1649
1650 =item $env = $term->env
1651
1652 Returns a copy of the environment in effect for the terminal as a hashref
1653 similar to C<\%ENV>.
1654
1655 =item @envv = $term->envv
1656
1657 Returns the environment as array of strings of the form C<VAR=VALUE>.
1658
1659 =item @argv = $term->argv
1660
1661 Return the argument vector as this terminal, similar to @ARGV, but
1662 includes the program name as first element.

1671
1672 =item $modifiermask = $term->ModMetaMask
1673
1674 =item $modifiermask = $term->ModNumLockMask
1675
1676 Return the modifier masks corresponding to the "ISO Level 3 Shift" (often
1677 AltGr), the meta key (often Alt) and the num lock key, if applicable.
1678
1679 =item $screen = $term->current_screen
1680
1681 Returns the currently displayed screen (0 primary, 1 secondary).
1682
1683 =item $cursor_is_hidden = $term->hidden_cursor
1684
1685 Returns whether the cursor is currently hidden or not.
1686
1687 =item $view_start = $term->view_start ([$newvalue])
1688
1689 Returns the row number of the topmost displayed line. Maximum value is
1690 C<0>, which displays the normal terminal contents. Lower values scroll
1691 this many lines into the scrollback buffer.
1692
1693 =item $term->want_refresh
1694
1695 Requests a screen refresh. At the next opportunity, rxvt-unicode will
1696 compare the on-screen display with its stored representation. If they
1697 differ, it redraws the differences.
1698
1699 Used after changing terminal contents to display them.
1700
1701 =item $text = $term->ROW_t ($row_number[, $new_text[, $start_col]])
1702
1703 Returns the text of the entire row with number C<$row_number>. Row C<< $term->top_row >>
1704 is the topmost terminal line, row C<< $term->nrow-1 >> is the bottommost
1705 terminal line. Nothing will be returned if a nonexistent line
1706 is requested.
1707
1708 If C<$new_text> is specified, it will replace characters in the current
1709 line, starting at column C<$start_col> (default C<0>), which is useful
1710 to replace only parts of a line. The font index in the rendition will
1711 automatically be updated.
1712
1713 C<$text> is in a special encoding: tabs and wide characters that use more
1714 than one cell when displayed are padded with C<$urxvt::NOCHAR> (chr 65535)
1715 characters. Characters with combining characters and other characters that
1716 do not fit into the normal text encoding will be replaced with characters
1717 in the private use area.
1718
1719 You have to obey this encoding when changing text. The advantage is
1720 that C<substr> and similar functions work on screen cells and not on
1721 characters.
1722
1723 The methods C<< $term->special_encode >> and C<< $term->special_decode >>
1724 can be used to convert normal strings into this encoding and vice versa.
1725
1726 =item $rend = $term->ROW_r ($row_number[, $new_rend[, $start_col]])
1727
1728 Like C<< $term->ROW_t >>, but returns an arrayref with rendition
1729 bitsets. Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font
1730 styles and similar information. See also C<< $term->ROW_t >>.
1731
1732 When setting rendition, the font mask will be ignored.
1733
1734 See the section on RENDITION, above.
1735
1736 =item $length = $term->ROW_l ($row_number[, $new_length])
1737
1738 Returns the number of screen cells that are in use ("the line
1739 length"). Unlike the urxvt core, this returns C<< $term->ncol >> if the
1740 line is joined with the following one.
1741
1742 =item $bool = $term->is_longer ($row_number)
1743
1744 Returns true if the row is part of a multiple-row logical "line" (i.e.
1745 joined with the following row), which means all characters are in use
1746 and it is continued on the next row (and possibly a continuation of the
1747 previous row(s)).
1748
1749 =item $line = $term->line ($row_number)
1750
1751 Create and return a new C<urxvt::line> object that stores information
1752 about the logical line that row C<$row_number> is part of. It supports the
1753 following methods:
1754
1755 =over 4
1756
1757 =item $text = $line->t ([$new_text])
1758
1759 Returns or replaces the full text of the line, similar to C<ROW_t>
1760
1761 =item $rend = $line->r ([$new_rend])
1762
1763 Returns or replaces the full rendition array of the line, similar to C<ROW_r>
1764
1765 =item $length = $line->l
1766
1767 Returns the length of the line in cells, similar to C<ROW_l>.
1768

1770
1771 =item $rownum = $line->end
1772
1773 Return the row number of the first/last row of the line, respectively.
1774
1775 =item $offset = $line->offset_of ($row, $col)
1776
1777 Returns the character offset of the given row|col pair within the logical
1778 line. Works for rows outside the line, too, and returns corresponding
1779 offsets outside the string.
1780
1781 =item ($row, $col) = $line->coord_of ($offset)
1782
1783 Translates a string offset into terminal coordinates again.
