22=head1 DESCRIPTION 20=head1 DESCRIPTION
23 21
22Everytime a terminal object gets created, scripts specified via the
23C<perl> resource are loaded and associated with it.
24
25Scripts are compiled in a 'use strict' and 'use utf8' environment, and
26thus must be encoded as UTF-8.
27
28Each script will only ever be loaded once, even in @@RXVT_NAME@@d, where
29scripts will be shared (but not enabled) for all terminals.

31=head2 Prepackaged Extensions

33This section describes the extensiosn delivered with this version. You can
34find them in F<@@RXVT_LIBDIR@@/urxvt/perl/>.

71=head2 General API Considerations
72
73All objects (such as terminals, time watchers etc.) are typical
74reference-to-hash objects. The hash can be used to store anything you
75like. All members starting with an underscore (such as C<_ptr> or
76C<_hook>) are reserved for internal uses and B<MUST NOT> be accessed or
77modified).
78
79When objects are destroyed on the C++ side, the perl object hashes are
80emptied, so its best to store related objects such as time watchers and
81the like inside the terminal object so they get destroyed as soon as the
82terminal is destroyed.

554Write the octets given in C<$data> to the tty (i.e. as program input). To
555pass characters instead of octets, you should convert your strings first
556to the locale-specific encoding using C<< $term->locale_encode >>.
557
558=item $nrow = $term->nrow
559
560=item $ncol = $term->ncol
561
562Return the number of rows/columns of the terminal window (i.e. as
563specified by C<-geometry>, excluding any scrollback).
564
565=item $nsaved = $term->nsaved
566
567Returns the number of lines in the scrollback buffer.
568
569=item $view_start = $term->view_start ([$newvalue])
570
571Returns the negative row number of the topmost line. Minimum value is
572C<0>, which displays the normal terminal contents. Larger values scroll
573this many lines into the scrollback buffer.
574
575=item $term->want_refresh
576
577Requests a screen refresh. At the next opportunity, rxvt-unicode will
578compare the on-screen display with its stored representation. If they
579differ, it redraws the differences.
580
581Used after changing terminal contents to display them.
582
583=item $text = $term->ROW_t ($row_number[, $new_text[, $start_col]])
584
585Returns the text of the entire row with number C<$row_number>. Row C<0>
586is the topmost terminal line, row C<< $term->$ncol-1 >> is the bottommost
587terminal line. The scrollback buffer starts at line C<-1> and extends to
588line C<< -$term->nsaved >>.
589
590If C<$new_text> is specified, it will replace characters in the current
591line, starting at column C<$start_col> (default C<0>), which is useful
592to replace only parts of a line. The font index in the rendition will
593automatically be updated.
594
595C<$text> is in a special encoding: tabs and wide characters that use more
596than one cell when displayed are padded with urxvt::NOCHAR characters
597(C<chr 65535>). Characters with combining characters and other characters
598that do not fit into the normal tetx encoding will be replaced with
599characters in the private use area.
600
601You have to obey this encoding when changing text. The advantage is
602that C<substr> and similar functions work on screen cells and not on
603characters.
604
605The methods C<< $term->special_encode >> and C<< $term->special_decode >>
606can be used to convert normal strings into this encoding and vice versa.
607
608=item $rend = $term->ROW_r ($row_number[, $new_rend[, $start_col]])
609
610Like C<< $term->ROW_t >>, but returns an arrayref with rendition
611bitsets. Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font
612styles and similar information. See also C<< $term->ROW_t >>.
613
614When setting rendition, the font mask will be ignored.
615
616See the section on RENDITION, above.
617
618=item $length = $term->ROW_l ($row_number[, $new_length])
619
620Returns the number of screen cells that are in use ("the line length"). If
621it is C<-1>, then the line is part of a multiple-row logical "line", which
622means all characters are in use and it is continued on the next row.
623
624=item $text = $term->special_encode $string
625
626Converts a perl string into the special encoding used by rxvt-unicode,
627where one character corresponds to one screen cell. See
628C<< $term->ROW_t >> for details.
629
630=item $string = $term->special_decode $text
631
632Converts rxvt-unicodes text reprsentation into a perl string. See
633C<< $term->ROW_t >> for details.

341 638
342This class implements timer watchers/events. Time is represented as a 639This class implements timer watchers/events. Time is represented as a
343fractional number of seconds since the epoch. Example: 640fractional number of seconds since the epoch. Example:
344 641
345 # create a digital clock display in upper right corner 642 $term->{overlay} = $term->overlay (-1, 0, 8, 1, urxvt::OVERLAY_RSTYLE, 0);
346 $term->{timer} = urxvt::timer 643 $term->{timer} = urxvt::timer

352 $timer->start ($time + 1);
353 $self->scr_overlay (-1, 0, 647 $term->{overlay}->set (0, 0,
354 POSIX::strftime "%H:%M:%S", localtime $time); 648 sprintf "%2d:%02d:%02d", (localtime urxvt::NOW)[2,1,0]);

360 654
361Create a new timer object in stopped state. 655Create a new timer object in started state. It is scheduled to fire
656immediately.
362 657
363=item $timer = $timer->cb (sub { my ($timer) = @_; ... }) 658=item $timer = $timer->cb (sub { my ($timer) = @_; ... })
364 659
365Set the callback to be called when the timer triggers. 660Set the callback to be called when the timer triggers.
366 661
369Return the time this watcher will fire next. 664Return the time this watcher will fire next.
370 665
371=item $timer = $timer->set ($tstamp) 666=item $timer = $timer->set ($tstamp)
372 667
373Set the time the event is generated to $tstamp. 668Set the time the event is generated to $tstamp.
669
670=item $timer = $timer->interval ($interval)
671
672Normally (and when C<$interval> is C<0>), the timer will automatically
673stop after it has fired once. If C<$interval> is non-zero, then the timer
674is automatically rescheduled at the given intervals.
374 675
375=item $timer = $timer->start 676=item $timer = $timer->start
376 677
377Start the timer. 678Start the timer.
