20 =head1 DESCRIPTION
21
22 Everytime 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.

31 =head1 PREPACKAGED EXTENSIONS
32
33 This section describes the extensions delivered with this release. You can
34 find them in F<@@RXVT_LIBDIR@@/urxvt/perl/>.
35
36 You can activate them like this:

41
42 =item selection (enabled by default)
43
44 (More) intelligent selection. This extension tries to be more intelligent
45 when the user extends selections (double-click). Right now, it tries to
46 select urls and complete shell-quoted arguments, which is very convenient,
47 too, if your F<ls> supports C<--quoting-style=shell>.
48
49 It also offers the following bindable keyboard command:
50
51 =over 4
52
53 =item rot13

55 Rot-13 the selection when activated. Used via keyboard trigger:
56

58
59 =back
60
61 =item option-popup (enabled by default)
62
63 Binds a popup menu to Ctrl-Button2 that lets you toggle (some) options at
64 runtime.
65
66 =item selection-popup (enabled by default)
67
68 Binds a popup menu to Ctrl-Button3 that lets you convert the selection
69 text into various other formats/action (such as uri unescaping, perl
70 evalution, web-browser starting etc.), depending on content.
71
72 =item searchable-scrollback<hotkey> (enabled by default)
73
74 Adds regex search functionality to the scrollback buffer, triggered
75 by a hotkey (default: C<M-s>). When in search mode, normal terminal
76 input/output is suspended.
77
78 C</> starts an incremental regex search, C<n> searches further, C<p> or
79 C<N> jump to the previous match, C<G> jumps to the bottom and clears the
80 history, C<enter> leaves search mode at the current position and C<escape>
81 returns to the original position.
82
83 =item digital-clock
84
85 Displays a digital clock using the built-in overlay.
86
87 =item mark-urls
88
89 Uses per-line display filtering (C<on_line_update>) to underline urls and
90 make them clickable. When clicked, the program specified in the resource
91 C<urlLauncher> (default C<x-www-browser>) will be started.
92
93 =item block-graphics-to-ascii
94
95 A not very useful example of filtering all text output to the terminal,
96 by replacing all line-drawing characters (U+2500 .. U+259F) by a
97 similar-looking ascii character.
98
99 =item example-refresh-hooks
100
101 Displays a very simple digital clock in the upper right corner of the
102 window. Illustrates overwriting the refresh callbacks to create your own
103 overlays or changes.

107 =head1 API DOCUMENTATION
108
109 =head2 General API Considerations
110
111 All objects (such as terminals, time watchers etc.) are typical
112 reference-to-hash objects. The hash can be used to store anything you
113 like. All members starting with an underscore (such as C<_ptr> or
114 C<_hook>) are reserved for internal uses and B<MUST NOT> be accessed or
115 modified).
116
117 When objects are destroyed on the C++ side, the perl object hashes are
118 emptied, so its best to store related objects such as time watchers and
119 the like inside the terminal object so they get destroyed as soon as the
120 terminal is destroyed.
121
122 Argument names also often indicate the type of a parameter. Here are some
123 hints on what they mean:
124
125 =over 4
126
127 =item $text
128
129 Rxvt-unicodes special way of encoding text, where one "unicode" character
130 always represents one screen cell. See L<ROW_t> for a discussion of this format.
131
132 =item $string
133
134 A perl text string, with an emphasis on I<text>. It can store all unicode
135 characters and is to be distinguished with text encoded in a specific
136 encoding (often locale-specific) and binary data.
137
138 =item $octets
139
140 Either binary data or - more common - a text string encoded in a
141 locale-specific way.
142
143 =back
144
145 =head2 Extension Objects
146
147 Very perl extension is a perl class. A separate perl object is created
148 for each terminal and each extension and passed as the first parameter to
149 hooks. So extensions can use their C<$self> object without having to think
150 about other extensions, with the exception of methods and members that
151 begin with an underscore character C<_>: these are reserved for internal
152 use.
153
154 Although it isn't a C<urxvt::term> object, you can call all methods of the
155 C<urxvt::term> class on this object.
156
157 It has the following methods and data members:
158
159 =over 4
160
161 =item $urxvt_term = $self->{term}
162
163 Returns the C<urxvt::term> object associated with this instance of the
164 extension. This member I<must not> be changed in any way.
165
166 =item $self->enable ($hook_name => $cb, [$hook_name => $cb..])
167
168 Dynamically enable the given hooks (named without the C<on_> prefix) for
169 this extension, replacing any previous hook. This is useful when you want
170 to overwrite time-critical hooks only temporarily.
171
172 =item $self->disable ($hook_name[, $hook_name..])
173
174 Dynamically disable the given hooks.
175
176 =back
177
178 =head2 Hooks
179
180 The following subroutines can be declared in extension files, and will be
181 called whenever the relevant event happens.
182
183 The first argument passed to them is an extension oject as described in
184 the in the C<Extension Objects> section.
185
186 B<All> of these hooks must return a boolean value. If it is true, then the
187 event counts as being I<consumed>, and the invocation of other hooks is
188 skipped, and the relevant action might not be carried out by the C++ code.
189
190 I<< When in doubt, return a false value (preferably C<()>). >>
191
192 =over 4
193
194 =item on_init $term
195
196 Called after a new terminal object has been initialized, but before
197 windows are created or the command gets run. Most methods are unsafe to
198 call or deliver senseless data, as terminal size and other characteristics
199 have not yet been determined. You can safely query and change resources,
200 though.
201
202 =item on_reset $term
203
204 Called after the screen is "reset" for any reason, such as resizing or
205 control sequences. Here is where you can react on changes to size-related
206 variables.
207
208 =item on_start $term
209
210 Called at the very end of initialisation of a new terminal, just before
211 returning to the mainloop.
212
213 =item on_sel_make $term, $eventtime
214
215 Called whenever a selection has been made by the user, but before the
216 selection text is copied, so changes to the beginning, end or type of the
217 selection will be honored.
218
219 Returning a true value aborts selection making by urxvt, in which case you
220 have to make a selection yourself by calling C<< $term->selection_grab >>.
221
222 =item on_sel_grab $term, $eventtime
223
224 Called whenever a selection has been copied, but before the selection is
225 requested from the server. The selection text can be queried and changed
226 by calling C<< $term->selection >>.
227
228 Returning a true value aborts selection grabbing. It will still be hilighted.
229
230 =item on_sel_extend $term
231
232 Called whenever the user tries to extend the selection (e.g. with a double
233 click) and is either supposed to return false (normal operation), or
234 should extend the selection itelf and return true to suppress the built-in
235 processing.
236
237 See the F<selection> example extension.
238
239 =item on_view_change $term, $offset
240
241 Called whenever the view offset changes, i..e the user or program
242 scrolls. Offset C<0> means display the normal terminal, positive values
243 show this many lines of scrollback.
244
245 =item on_scroll_back $term, $lines, $saved
246
247 Called whenever lines scroll out of the terminal area into the scrollback
248 buffer. C<$lines> is the number of lines scrolled out and may be larger
249 than the scroll back buffer or the terminal.
250
251 It is called before lines are scrolled out (so rows 0 .. min ($lines - 1,
252 $nrow - 1) represent the lines to be scrolled out). C<$saved> is the total
253 number of lines that will be in the scrollback buffer.
254
255 =item on_osc_seq $term, $string
256
257 Called whenever the B<ESC ] 777 ; string ST> command sequence (OSC =
258 operating system command) is processed. Cursor position and other state
259 information is up-to-date when this happens. For interoperability, the
260 string should start with the extension name and a colon, to distinguish
261 it from commands for other extensions, and this might be enforced in the
262 future.
263
264 Be careful not ever to trust (in a security sense) the data you receive,
265 as its source can not easily be controleld (e-mail content, messages from
266 other users on the same system etc.).
267
268 =item on_add_lines $term, $string
269
270 Called whenever text is about to be output, with the text as argument. You
271 can filter/change and output the text yourself by returning a true value
272 and calling C<< $term->scr_add_lines >> yourself. Please note that this
273 might be very slow, however, as your hook is called for B<all> text being
274 output.
275
276 =item on_tt_write $term, $octets
277
278 Called whenever some data is written to the tty/pty and can be used to
279 suppress or filter tty input.
280
281 =item on_line_update $term, $row
282
283 Called whenever a line was updated or changed. Can be used to filter
284 screen output (e.g. underline urls or other useless stuff). Only lines
285 that are being shown will be filtered, and, due to performance reasons,
286 not always immediately.
287
288 The row number is always the topmost row of the line if the line spans
289 multiple rows.
290
291 Please note that, if you change the line, then the hook might get called
292 later with the already-modified line (e.g. if unrelated parts change), so
293 you cannot just toggle rendition bits, but only set them.
294
295 =item on_refresh_begin $term
296
297 Called just before the screen gets redrawn. Can be used for overlay
298 or similar effects by modify terminal contents in refresh_begin, and
299 restoring them in refresh_end. The built-in overlay and selection display
300 code is run after this hook, and takes precedence.
301
302 =item on_refresh_end $term
303
304 Called just after the screen gets redrawn. See C<on_refresh_begin>.
305
306 =item on_keyboard_command $term, $string
307
308 Called whenever the user presses a key combination that has a
309 C<perl:string> action bound to it (see description of the B<keysym>
310 resource in the @@RXVT_NAME@@(1) manpage).
311
312 =item on_focus_in $term
313
314 Called whenever the window gets the keyboard focus, before rxvt-unicode
315 does focus in processing.
316
317 =item on_focus_out $term
318
319 Called wheneever the window loses keyboard focus, before rxvt-unicode does
320 focus out processing.
321
322 =item on_key_press $term, $event, $keysym, $octets
323
324 =item on_key_release $term, $event, $keysym
325
326 =item on_button_press $term, $event
327
328 =item on_button_release $term, $event
329
330 =item on_motion_notify $term, $event
331
332 =item on_map_notify $term, $event
333
334 =item on_unmap_notify $term, $event
335
336 Called whenever the corresponding X event is received for the terminal If
337 the hook returns true, then the even will be ignored by rxvt-unicode.
338
339 The event is a hash with most values as named by Xlib (see the XEvent
340 manpage), with the additional members C<row> and C<col>, which are the row
341 and column under the mouse cursor.
342
343 C<on_key_press> additionally receives the string rxvt-unicode would
344 output, if any, in locale-specific encoding.

400
401 Fatally aborts execution with the given error message. Avoid at all
402 costs! The only time this is acceptable is when the terminal process
403 starts up.
404
405 =item urxvt::warn $string
406
407 Calls C<rxvt_warn> with the given string which should not include a
408 newline. The module also overwrites the C<warn> builtin with a function
409 that calls this function.
410
411 Using this function has the advantage that its output ends up in the
412 correct place, e.g. on stderr of the connecting urxvtc client.
413
414 Messages have a size limit of 1023 bytes currently.
415
416 =item $is_safe = urxvt::safe
417
418 Returns true when it is safe to do potentially unsafe things, such as
419 evaluating perl code specified by the user. This is true when urxvt was
420 started setuid or setgid.
421
422 =item $time = urxvt::NOW

436 =head2 RENDITION
437
438 Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font styles and
439 similar information for each screen cell.
440
441 The following "macros" deal with changes in rendition sets. You should
442 never just create a bitset, you should always modify an existing one,
443 as they contain important information required for correct operation of
444 rxvt-unicode.
445
446 =over 4
447
448 =item $rend = urxvt::DEFAULT_RSTYLE
449
450 Returns the default rendition, as used when the terminal is starting up or
451 being reset. Useful as a base to start when creating renditions.
452
453 =item $rend = urxvt::OVERLAY_RSTYLE
454
455 Return the rendition mask used for overlays by default.
456
457 =item $rendbit = urxvt::RS_Bold, RS_Italic, RS_Blink, RS_RVid, RS_Uline
458
459 Return the bit that enabled bold, italic, blink, reverse-video and
460 underline, respectively. To enable such a style, just logically OR it into
461 the bitset.
462
463 =item $foreground = urxvt::GET_BASEFG $rend
464
465 =item $background = urxvt::GET_BASEBG $rend

469 =item $rend = urxvt::SET_FGCOLOR $rend, $new_colour
470
471 =item $rend = urxvt::SET_BGCOLOR $rend, $new_colour

473 Replace the foreground/background colour in the rendition mask with the
474 specified one.
475
476 =item $value = urxvt::GET_CUSTOM $rend
477
478 Return the "custom" value: Every rendition has 5 bits for use by
479 extensions. They can be set and changed as you like and are initially
480 zero.
481
482 =item $rend = urxvt::SET_CUSTOM $rend, $new_value

694 C<AnyEvent> module - any module using it will work inside urxvt without
695 further programming. The only exception is that you cannot wait on
696 condition variables, but non-blocking condvar use is ok. What this means
697 is that you cannot use blocking APIs, but the non-blocking variant should
698 work.

786
787 Creates a new terminal, very similar as if you had started it with system
788 C<$rxvtname, arg...>. C<$envhashref> must be a reference to a C<%ENV>-like
789 hash which defines the environment of the new terminal.
790
791 Croaks (and probably outputs an error message) if the new instance
792 couldn't be created. Returns C<undef> if the new instance didn't
793 initialise perl, and the terminal object otherwise. The C<init> and
794 C<start> hooks will be called during this call.

805
806 Destroy the terminal object (close the window, free resources
807 etc.). Please note that @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not exit as long as any event
808 watchers (timers, io watchers) are still active.
809
810 =item $isset = $term->option ($optval[, $set])
811
812 Returns true if the option specified by C<$optval> is enabled, and
813 optionally change it. All option values are stored by name in the hash
814 C<%urxvt::OPTION>. Options not enabled in this binary are not in the hash.

826 =item $value = $term->resource ($name[, $newval])
827
828 Returns the current resource value associated with a given name and
829 optionally sets a new value. Setting values is most useful in the C<init>
830 hook. Unset resources are returned and accepted as C<undef>.
831
832 The new value must be properly encoded to a suitable character encoding
833 before passing it to this method. Similarly, the returned value may need
834 to be converted from the used encoding to text.
835
836 Resource names are as defined in F<src/rsinc.h>. Colours can be specified
837 as resource names of the form C<< color+<index> >>, e.g. C<color+5>. (will
838 likely change).
839
840 Please note that resource strings will currently only be freed when the
841 terminal is destroyed, so changing options frequently will eat memory.

867
868 =item $value = $term->x_resource ($pattern)
869
870 Returns the X-Resource for the given pattern, excluding the program or
871 class name, i.e. C<< $term->x_resource ("boldFont") >> should return the
872 same value as used by this instance of rxvt-unicode. Returns C<undef> if no
873 resource with that pattern exists.
874
875 This method should only be called during the C<on_start> hook, as there is
876 only one resource database per display, and later invocations might return
877 the wrong resources.
878
879 =item $success = $term->parse_keysym ($keysym_spec, $command_string)
880
881 Adds a keymap translation exactly as specified via a resource. See the
882 C<keysym> resource in the @@RXVT_NAME@@(1) manpage.
883
884 =item $rend = $term->rstyle ([$new_rstyle])
885
886 Return and optionally change the current rendition. Text that is output by
887 the terminal application will use this style.
888
889 =item ($row, $col) = $term->screen_cur ([$row, $col])
890
891 Return the current coordinates of the text cursor position and optionally
892 set it (which is usually bad as applications don't expect that).
893
894 =item ($row, $col) = $term->selection_mark ([$row, $col])

900 Return the current values of the selection mark, begin or end positions,
901 and optionally set them to new values.
902
903 =item $success = $term->selection_grab ($eventtime)
904
905 Try to request the primary selection from the server (for example, as set
906 by the next method).
907
908 =item $oldtext = $term->selection ([$newtext])
909
910 Return the current selection text and optionally replace it by C<$newtext>.
911
912 =item $term->overlay_simple ($x, $y, $text)
913
914 Create a simple multi-line overlay box. See the next method for details.

927
928 $overlay
929 }
930
931 =item $term->overlay ($x, $y, $width, $height[, $rstyle[, $border]])
932
933 Create a new (empty) overlay at the given position with the given
934 width/height. C<$rstyle> defines the initial rendition style
935 (default: C<OVERLAY_RSTYLE>).
936
937 If C<$border> is C<2> (default), then a decorative border will be put
938 around the box.
939
940 If either C<$x> or C<$y> is negative, then this is counted from the
941 right/bottom side, respectively.
942
943 This method returns an urxvt::overlay object. The overlay will be visible
944 as long as the perl object is referenced.
945
946 The methods currently supported on C<urxvt::overlay> objects are:
947
948 =over 4
949
950 =item $overlay->set ($x, $y, $text, $rend)
951
952 Similar to C<< $term->ROW_t >> and C<< $term->ROW_r >> in that it puts
953 text in rxvt-unicode's special encoding and an array of rendition values
954 at a specific position inside the overlay.
955
956 =item $overlay->hide
957
958 If visible, hide the overlay, but do not destroy it.

969 C<$event> I<must> be the event causing the menu to pop up (a button event,
970 currently).

992
993 =item $cellwidth = $term->strwidth ($string)
994
995 Returns the number of screen-cells this string would need. Correctly
996 accounts for wide and combining characters.
997
998 =item $octets = $term->locale_encode ($string)
999
1000 Convert the given text string into the corresponding locale encoding.
1001
1002 =item $string = $term->locale_decode ($octets)
1003
1004 Convert the given locale-encoded octets into a perl string.
1005
1006 =item $term->scr_xor_span ($beg_row, $beg_col, $end_row, $end_col[, $rstyle])
1007
1008 XORs the rendition values in the given span with the provided value
1009 (default: C<RS_RVid>). Useful in refresh hooks to provide effects similar
1010 to the selection.
1011
1012 =item $term->scr_xor_rect ($beg_row, $beg_col, $end_row, $end_col[, $rstyle1[, $rstyle2]])
1013
1014 Similar to C<scr_xor_span>, but xors a rectangle instead. Trailing
1015 whitespace will additionally be xored with the C<$rstyle2>, which defaults
1016 to C<RS_RVid | RS_Uline>, which removes reverse video again and underlines
1017 it instead.
1018
1019 =item $term->scr_bell
1020
1021 Ring the bell!
1022
1023 =item $term->scr_add_lines ($string)
1024
1025 Write the given text string to the screen, as if output by the application
1026 running inside the terminal. It may not contain command sequences (escape
1027 codes), but is free to use line feeds, carriage returns and tabs. The
1028 string is a normal text string, not in locale-dependent encoding.
1029
1030 Normally its not a good idea to use this function, as programs might be
1031 confused by changes in cursor position or scrolling. Its useful inside a
1032 C<on_add_lines> hook, though.
1033
1034 =item $term->cmd_parse ($octets)
1035
1036 Similar to C<scr_add_lines>, but the argument must be in the
1037 locale-specific encoding of the terminal and can contain command sequences
1038 (escape codes) that will be interpreted.
1039
1040 =item $term->tt_write ($octets)
1041
1042 Write the octets given in C<$data> to the tty (i.e. as program input). To
1043 pass characters instead of octets, you should convert your strings first
1044 to the locale-specific encoding using C<< $term->locale_encode >>.
1045
1046 =item $old_events = $term->pty_ev_events ([$new_events])
1047
1048 Replaces the event mask of the pty watcher by the given event mask. Can
1049 be used to suppress input and output handling to the pty/tty. See the
1050 description of C<< urxvt::timer->events >>. Make sure to always restore
1051 the previous value.
1052
1053 =item $windowid = $term->parent
1054
1055 Return the window id of the toplevel window.
1056
1057 =item $windowid = $term->vt

1082
1083 =item $lines_in_scrollback = $term->nsaved
1084
1085 Return various integers describing terminal characteristics.
1086
1087 =item $x_display = $term->display_id
1088
1089 Return the DISPLAY used by rxvt-unicode.
1090
1091 =item $lc_ctype = $term->locale
1092
1093 Returns the LC_CTYPE category string used by this rxvt-unicode.
1094
1095 =item $env = $term->env
1096
1097 Returns a copy of the environment in effect for the terminal as a hashref
1098 similar to C<\%ENV>.

1101
1102 sub env {
1103 if (my $env = $_[0]->_env) {

1110 =item $modifiermask = $term->ModLevel3Mask
1111
1112 =item $modifiermask = $term->ModMetaMask
1113
1114 =item $modifiermask = $term->ModNumLockMask
1115
1116 Return the modifier masks corresponding to the "ISO Level 3 Shift" (often
1117 AltGr), the meta key (often Alt) and the num lock key, if applicable.
1118
1119 =item $view_start = $term->view_start ([$newvalue])
1120
1121 Returns the negative row number of the topmost line. Minimum value is
1122 C<0>, which displays the normal terminal contents. Larger values scroll
1123 this many lines into the scrollback buffer.
1124
1125 =item $term->want_refresh
1126
1127 Requests a screen refresh. At the next opportunity, rxvt-unicode will
1128 compare the on-screen display with its stored representation. If they
1129 differ, it redraws the differences.
1130
1131 Used after changing terminal contents to display them.
1132
1133 =item $text = $term->ROW_t ($row_number[, $new_text[, $start_col]])
1134
1135 Returns the text of the entire row with number C<$row_number>. Row C<0>
1136 is the topmost terminal line, row C<< $term->$ncol-1 >> is the bottommost
1137 terminal line. The scrollback buffer starts at line C<-1> and extends to
1138 line C<< -$term->nsaved >>. Nothing will be returned if a nonexistent line
1139 is requested.
1140
1141 If C<$new_text> is specified, it will replace characters in the current
1142 line, starting at column C<$start_col> (default C<0>), which is useful
1143 to replace only parts of a line. The font index in the rendition will
1144 automatically be updated.
1145
1146 C<$text> is in a special encoding: tabs and wide characters that use more
1147 than one cell when displayed are padded with urxvt::NOCHAR characters
1148 (C<chr 65535>). Characters with combining characters and other characters
1149 that do not fit into the normal tetx encoding will be replaced with
1150 characters in the private use area.
1151
1152 You have to obey this encoding when changing text. The advantage is
1153 that C<substr> and similar functions work on screen cells and not on
1154 characters.
1155
1156 The methods C<< $term->special_encode >> and C<< $term->special_decode >>
1157 can be used to convert normal strings into this encoding and vice versa.
1158
1159 =item $rend = $term->ROW_r ($row_number[, $new_rend[, $start_col]])
1160
1161 Like C<< $term->ROW_t >>, but returns an arrayref with rendition
1162 bitsets. Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font
1163 styles and similar information. See also C<< $term->ROW_t >>.
1164
1165 When setting rendition, the font mask will be ignored.
1166
1167 See the section on RENDITION, above.
1168
1169 =item $length = $term->ROW_l ($row_number[, $new_length])
1170
1171 Returns the number of screen cells that are in use ("the line
1172 length"). Unlike the urxvt core, this returns C<< $term->ncol >> if the
1173 line is joined with the following one.
1174
1175 =item $bool = $term->is_longer ($row_number)
1176
1177 Returns true if the row is part of a multiple-row logical "line" (i.e.
1178 joined with the following row), which means all characters are in use
1179 and it is continued on the next row (and possibly a continuation of the
1180 previous row(s)).
1181
1182 =item $line = $term->line ($row_number)
1183
1184 Create and return a new C<urxvt::line> object that stores information
1185 about the logical line that row C<$row_number> is part of. It supports the
1186 following methods:
1187
1188 =over 4
1189
1190 =item $text = $line->t ([$new_text])
1191
1192 Returns or replaces the full text of the line, similar to C<ROW_t>
1193

1464 fractional number of seconds since the epoch. Example:
1465
1466 $term->{overlay} = $term->overlay (-1, 0, 8, 1, urxvt::OVERLAY_RSTYLE, 0);
1467 $term->{timer} = urxvt::timer

1470 ->cb (sub {
1471 $term->{overlay}->set (0, 0,

1473 });
1474
1475 =over 4
1476
1477 =item $timer = new urxvt::timer
1478
1479 Create a new timer object in started state. It is scheduled to fire
1480 immediately.
1481
1482 =item $timer = $timer->cb (sub { my ($timer) = @_; ... })
1483
1484 Set the callback to be called when the timer triggers.
1485
1486 =item $tstamp = $timer->at
1487
1488 Return the time this watcher will fire next.
1489
1490 =item $timer = $timer->set ($tstamp)
1491
1492 Set the time the event is generated to $tstamp.
1493
1494 =item $timer = $timer->interval ($interval)
1495
1496 Normally (and when C<$interval> is C<0>), the timer will automatically
1497 stop after it has fired once. If C<$interval> is non-zero, then the timer
1498 is automatically rescheduled at the given intervals.
1499
1500 =item $timer = $timer->start
1501
1502 Start the timer.
1503
1504 =item $timer = $timer->start ($tstamp)
1505
1506 Set the event trigger time to C<$tstamp> and start the timer.
1507
1508 =item $timer = $timer->stop
1509
1510 Stop the timer.
1511
1512 =back
1513
1514 =head2 The C<urxvt::iow> Class

1537
1538 =item $iow = $iow->cb (sub { my ($iow, $reventmask) = @_; ... })
1539
1540 Set the callback to be called when io events are triggered. C<$reventmask>
1541 is a bitset as described in the C<events> method.
1542
1543 =item $iow = $iow->fd ($fd)
1544
1545 Set the filedescriptor (not handle) to watch.
1546
1547 =item $iow = $iow->events ($eventmask)
1548
1549 Set the event mask to watch. The only allowed values are
1550 C<urxvt::EVENT_READ> and C<urxvt::EVENT_WRITE>, which might be ORed
1551 together, or C<urxvt::EVENT_NONE>.
1552
1553 =item $iow = $iow->start
1554
1555 Start watching for requested events on the given handle.
1556
1557 =item $iow = $iow->stop
