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
54
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 middle-clicked, the program specified in the
91 resource 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
472
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

709 is that you cannot use blocking APIs, but the non-blocking variant should

798
799 Creates a new terminal, very similar as if you had started it with system
800 C<$rxvtname, arg...>. C<$envhashref> must be a reference to a C<%ENV>-like
801 hash which defines the environment of the new terminal.
802
803 Croaks (and probably outputs an error message) if the new instance
804 couldn't be created. Returns C<undef> if the new instance didn't
805 initialise perl, and the terminal object otherwise. The C<init> and
806 C<start> hooks will be called during this call.

816 =item $term->destroy
817
818 Destroy the terminal object (close the window, free resources
819 etc.). Please note that @@RXVT_NAME@@ will not exit as long as any event
820 watchers (timers, io watchers) are still active.
821
822 =item $isset = $term->option ($optval[, $set])
823
824 Returns true if the option specified by C<$optval> is enabled, and
825 optionally change it. All option values are stored by name in the hash
826 C<%urxvt::OPTION>. Options not enabled in this binary are not in the hash.

838 =item $value = $term->resource ($name[, $newval])
839
840 Returns the current resource value associated with a given name and
841 optionally sets a new value. Setting values is most useful in the C<init>
842 hook. Unset resources are returned and accepted as C<undef>.
843
844 The new value must be properly encoded to a suitable character encoding
845 before passing it to this method. Similarly, the returned value may need
846 to be converted from the used encoding to text.
847
848 Resource names are as defined in F<src/rsinc.h>. Colours can be specified
849 as resource names of the form C<< color+<index> >>, e.g. C<color+5>. (will
850 likely change).
851
852 Please note that resource strings will currently only be freed when the
853 terminal is destroyed, so changing options frequently will eat memory.

879
880 =item $value = $term->x_resource ($pattern)
881
882 Returns the X-Resource for the given pattern, excluding the program or
883 class name, i.e. C<< $term->x_resource ("boldFont") >> should return the
884 same value as used by this instance of rxvt-unicode. Returns C<undef> if no
885 resource with that pattern exists.
886
887 This method should only be called during the C<on_start> hook, as there is
888 only one resource database per display, and later invocations might return
889 the wrong resources.
890
891 =item $success = $term->parse_keysym ($keysym_spec, $command_string)
892
893 Adds a keymap translation exactly as specified via a resource. See the
894 C<keysym> resource in the @@RXVT_NAME@@(1) manpage.
895
896 =item $rend = $term->rstyle ([$new_rstyle])

899 the terminal application will use this style.
900
901 =item ($row, $col) = $term->screen_cur ([$row, $col])
902
903 Return the current coordinates of the text cursor position and optionally
904 set it (which is usually bad as applications don't expect that).
905
906 =item ($row, $col) = $term->selection_mark ([$row, $col])

909
910 =item ($row, $col) = $term->selection_end ([$row, $col])

912 Return the current values of the selection mark, begin or end positions,
913 and optionally set them to new values.
914
915 =item $success = $term->selection_grab ($eventtime)
916
917 Try to request the primary selection from the server (for example, as set
918 by the next method).
919
920 =item $oldtext = $term->selection ([$newtext])
921
922 Return the current selection text and optionally replace it by C<$newtext>.
923
924 =item $term->overlay_simple ($x, $y, $text)
925
926 Create a simple multi-line overlay box. See the next method for details.

939
940 $overlay
941 }
942
943 =item $term->overlay ($x, $y, $width, $height[, $rstyle[, $border]])
944
945 Create a new (empty) overlay at the given position with the given
946 width/height. C<$rstyle> defines the initial rendition style
947 (default: C<OVERLAY_RSTYLE>).
948
949 If C<$border> is C<2> (default), then a decorative border will be put
950 around the box.
951
952 If either C<$x> or C<$y> is negative, then this is counted from the
953 right/bottom side, respectively.
954
955 This method returns an urxvt::overlay object. The overlay will be visible
956 as long as the perl object is referenced.
957
958 The methods currently supported on C<urxvt::overlay> objects are:
959
960 =over 4
961
962 =item $overlay->set ($x, $y, $text, $rend)
963
964 Similar to C<< $term->ROW_t >> and C<< $term->ROW_r >> in that it puts
965 text in rxvt-unicode's special encoding and an array of rendition values
966 at a specific position inside the overlay.
967
968 =item $overlay->hide
969
970 If visible, hide the overlay, but do not destroy it.

977
978 =item $popup = $term->popup ($event)
979
980 Creates a new C<urxvt::popup> object that implements a popup menu. The
981 C<$event> I<must> be the event causing the menu to pop up (a button event,
982 currently).

1003 }
1004
1005 =item $cellwidth = $term->strwidth ($string)
1006
1007 Returns the number of screen-cells this string would need. Correctly
1008 accounts for wide and combining characters.
1009
1010 =item $octets = $term->locale_encode ($string)
1011
1012 Convert the given text string into the corresponding locale encoding.
1013
1014 =item $string = $term->locale_decode ($octets)
1015
1016 Convert the given locale-encoded octets into a perl string.
1017
1018 =item $term->scr_xor_span ($beg_row, $beg_col, $end_row, $end_col[, $rstyle])
1019
1020 XORs the rendition values in the given span with the provided value
1021 (default: C<RS_RVid>). Useful in refresh hooks to provide effects similar
1022 to the selection.
1023
1024 =item $term->scr_xor_rect ($beg_row, $beg_col, $end_row, $end_col[, $rstyle1[, $rstyle2]])
1025
1026 Similar to C<scr_xor_span>, but xors a rectangle instead. Trailing
1027 whitespace will additionally be xored with the C<$rstyle2>, which defaults
1028 to C<RS_RVid | RS_Uline>, which removes reverse video again and underlines
1029 it instead.
1030
1031 =item $term->scr_bell
1032
1033 Ring the bell!
1034
1035 =item $term->scr_add_lines ($string)
1036
1037 Write the given text string to the screen, as if output by the application
1038 running inside the terminal. It may not contain command sequences (escape
1039 codes), but is free to use line feeds, carriage returns and tabs. The
1040 string is a normal text string, not in locale-dependent encoding.
1041
1042 Normally its not a good idea to use this function, as programs might be
1043 confused by changes in cursor position or scrolling. Its useful inside a
1044 C<on_add_lines> hook, though.
1045
1046 =item $term->cmd_parse ($octets)
1047
1048 Similar to C<scr_add_lines>, but the argument must be in the
1049 locale-specific encoding of the terminal and can contain command sequences
1050 (escape codes) that will be interpreted.
1051
1052 =item $term->tt_write ($octets)
1053
1054 Write the octets given in C<$data> to the tty (i.e. as program input). To
1055 pass characters instead of octets, you should convert your strings first
1056 to the locale-specific encoding using C<< $term->locale_encode >>.
1057
1058 =item $old_events = $term->pty_ev_events ([$new_events])
1059
1060 Replaces the event mask of the pty watcher by the given event mask. Can
1061 be used to suppress input and output handling to the pty/tty. See the
1062 description of C<< urxvt::timer->events >>. Make sure to always restore
1063 the previous value.
1064
1065 =item $windowid = $term->parent
1066
1067 Return the window id of the toplevel window.
1068
1069 =item $windowid = $term->vt
1070
1071 Return the window id of the terminal window.

1093 =item $nrow_plus_saveLines = $term->total_rows
1094
1095 =item $lines_in_scrollback = $term->nsaved
1096
1097 Return various integers describing terminal characteristics.
1098
1099 =item $x_display = $term->display_id
1100
1101 Return the DISPLAY used by rxvt-unicode.
1102
1103 =item $lc_ctype = $term->locale
1104
1105 Returns the LC_CTYPE category string used by this rxvt-unicode.
1106
1107 =item $env = $term->env
1108
1109 Returns a copy of the environment in effect for the terminal as a hashref
1110 similar to C<\%ENV>.
1111
1112 =cut
1113
1114 sub env {
1115 if (my $env = $_[0]->_env) {

1122 =item $modifiermask = $term->ModLevel3Mask
1123
1124 =item $modifiermask = $term->ModMetaMask
1125
1126 =item $modifiermask = $term->ModNumLockMask
1127
1128 Return the modifier masks corresponding to the "ISO Level 3 Shift" (often
1129 AltGr), the meta key (often Alt) and the num lock key, if applicable.
1130
1131 =item $view_start = $term->view_start ([$newvalue])
1132
1133 Returns the negative row number of the topmost line. Minimum value is
1134 C<0>, which displays the normal terminal contents. Larger values scroll
1135 this many lines into the scrollback buffer.
1136
1137 =item $term->want_refresh
1138
1139 Requests a screen refresh. At the next opportunity, rxvt-unicode will
1140 compare the on-screen display with its stored representation. If they
1141 differ, it redraws the differences.
1142
1143 Used after changing terminal contents to display them.
1144
1145 =item $text = $term->ROW_t ($row_number[, $new_text[, $start_col]])
1146
1147 Returns the text of the entire row with number C<$row_number>. Row C<0>
1148 is the topmost terminal line, row C<< $term->$ncol-1 >> is the bottommost
1149 terminal line. The scrollback buffer starts at line C<-1> and extends to
1150 line C<< -$term->nsaved >>. Nothing will be returned if a nonexistent line
1151 is requested.
1152
1153 If C<$new_text> is specified, it will replace characters in the current
1154 line, starting at column C<$start_col> (default C<0>), which is useful
1155 to replace only parts of a line. The font index in the rendition will
1156 automatically be updated.
1157
1158 C<$text> is in a special encoding: tabs and wide characters that use more
1159 than one cell when displayed are padded with urxvt::NOCHAR characters
1160 (C<chr 65535>). Characters with combining characters and other characters
1161 that do not fit into the normal tetx encoding will be replaced with
1162 characters in the private use area.
1163
1164 You have to obey this encoding when changing text. The advantage is
1165 that C<substr> and similar functions work on screen cells and not on
1166 characters.
1167
1168 The methods C<< $term->special_encode >> and C<< $term->special_decode >>
1169 can be used to convert normal strings into this encoding and vice versa.
1170
1171 =item $rend = $term->ROW_r ($row_number[, $new_rend[, $start_col]])
1172
1173 Like C<< $term->ROW_t >>, but returns an arrayref with rendition
1174 bitsets. Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font
1175 styles and similar information. See also C<< $term->ROW_t >>.
1176
1177 When setting rendition, the font mask will be ignored.
1178
1179 See the section on RENDITION, above.
1180
1181 =item $length = $term->ROW_l ($row_number[, $new_length])
1182
1183 Returns the number of screen cells that are in use ("the line
1184 length"). Unlike the urxvt core, this returns C<< $term->ncol >> if the
1185 line is joined with the following one.
1186
1187 =item $bool = $term->is_longer ($row_number)
1188
1189 Returns true if the row is part of a multiple-row logical "line" (i.e.
1190 joined with the following row), which means all characters are in use
1191 and it is continued on the next row (and possibly a continuation of the
1192 previous row(s)).
1193
1194 =item $line = $term->line ($row_number)
1195
1196 Create and return a new C<urxvt::line> object that stores information
1197 about the logical line that row C<$row_number> is part of. It supports the

1326
1327 =item $term->allow_events_async
1328
1329 Calls XAllowEvents with AsyncBoth for the most recent grab.
1330

1337 Calls XAllowEvents with both ReplayPointer and ReplayKeyboard for the most
1338 recent grab.
1339
1340 =item $term->ungrab
1341
1342 Calls XUngrab for the most recent grab. Is called automatically on
1343 evaluation errors, as it is better to lose the grab in the error case as
1344 the session.

1475 This class implements timer watchers/events. Time is represented as a
1476 fractional number of seconds since the epoch. Example:
1477
1478 $term->{overlay} = $term->overlay (-1, 0, 8, 1, urxvt::OVERLAY_RSTYLE, 0);
1479 $term->{timer} = urxvt::timer

1483 $term->{overlay}->set (0, 0,

1485 });
1486
1487 =over 4
1488
1489 =item $timer = new urxvt::timer
1490
1491 Create a new timer object in started state. It is scheduled to fire
1492 immediately.
1493
1494 =item $timer = $timer->cb (sub { my ($timer) = @_; ... })
1495
1496 Set the callback to be called when the timer triggers.
1497
1498 =item $tstamp = $timer->at
1499
1500 Return the time this watcher will fire next.
1501
1502 =item $timer = $timer->set ($tstamp)
1503
1504 Set the time the event is generated to $tstamp.
1505
1506 =item $timer = $timer->interval ($interval)
1507
1508 Normally (and when C<$interval> is C<0>), the timer will automatically
1509 stop after it has fired once. If C<$interval> is non-zero, then the timer
1510 is automatically rescheduled at the given intervals.
1511
1512 =item $timer = $timer->start
1513
1514 Start the timer.
1515
1516 =item $timer = $timer->start ($tstamp)
1517
1518 Set the event trigger time to C<$tstamp> and start the timer.
1519
1520 =item $timer = $timer->stop
1521
1522 Stop the timer.
1523
1524 =back
1525
1526 =head2 The C<urxvt::iow> Class

1549
1550 =item $iow = $iow->cb (sub { my ($iow, $reventmask) = @_; ... })
1551
1552 Set the callback to be called when io events are triggered. C<$reventmask>
1553 is a bitset as described in the C<events> method.
1554
1555 =item $iow = $iow->fd ($fd)
1556
1557 Set the filedescriptor (not handle) to watch.
1558
1559 =item $iow = $iow->events ($eventmask)
1560
1561 Set the event mask to watch. The only allowed values are
1562 C<urxvt::EVENT_READ> and C<urxvt::EVENT_WRITE>, which might be ORed
1563 together, or C<urxvt::EVENT_NONE>.
1564
1565 =item $iow = $iow->start
1566
1567 Start watching for requested events on the given handle.
1568
1569 =item $iow = $iow->stop
