203Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font styles and
204similar information for each screen cell.
205
206The following "macros" deal with changes in rendition sets. You should
207never just create a bitset, you should always modify an existing one,
208as they contain important information required for correct operation of
209rxvt-unicode.

213=item $rend = urxvt::DEFAULT_RSTYLE
