23the directory specified by the C<perl-lib> resource will be additionally 24
24scanned. 25Scripts are compiled in a 'use strict' and 'use utf8' environment, and

29Hooks in scripts specified by C<perl-lib> will only be called for the 31=head2 Prepackaged Extensions
30terminals created with that specific option value. 32
33This section describes the extensiosn delivered with this version. You can
34find them in F<@@RXVT_LIBDIR@@/urxvt/perl/>.

42=item selection
43
44Intelligent selection. This extension tries to be more intelligent when
45the user extends selections (double-click). Right now, it tries to select
46urls and complete shell-quoted arguments, which is very convenient, too,
47if your F<ls> supports C<--quoting-style=shell>.

77A not very useful example of filtering all text output to the terminal, by
78underlining all urls that matches a certain regex (i.e. some urls :). It
79is not very useful because urls that are output in multiple steps (e.g.
80when typing them) do not get marked.

104Rxvt-unicodes special way of encoding text, where one "unicode" character
105always represents one screen cell. See L<row_t> for a discussion of this format.
106
107=item $string
108
109A perl text string, with an emphasis on I<text>. It can store all unicode
110characters and is to be distinguished with text encoded in a specific
111encoding (often locale-specific) and binary data.

127its not a real C<urxvt::term> object. Instead, the real C<urxvt::term>

60Called after a new terminal object has been initialized, but before 141Called after a new terminal object has been initialized, but before
61windows are created or the command gets run. 142windows are created or the command gets run. Most methods are unsafe to
143call or deliver senseless data, as terminal size and other characteristics
144have not yet been determined. You can safely query and change resources,
145though.

175=item on_sel_extend $term
176
177Called whenever the user tries to extend the selection (e.g. with a double
178click) and is either supposed to return false (normal operation), or
179should extend the selection itelf and return true to suppress the built-in
180processing.

213
214=item on_osc_seq $term, $string
215
216Called whenever the B<ESC ] 777 ; string ST> command sequence (OSC =
217operating system command) is processed. Cursor position and other state
218information is up-to-date when this happens. For interoperability, the
219string should start with the extension name and a colon, to distinguish
220it from commands for other extensions, and this might be enforced in the
221future.
222
223Be careful not ever to trust (in a security sense) the data you receive,
224as its source can not easily be controleld (e-mail content, messages from
225other users on the same system etc.).
226
227=item on_add_lines $term, $string
228
229Called whenever text is about to be output, with the text as argument. You
230can filter/change and output the text yourself by returning a true value
231and calling C<< $term->scr_add_lines >> yourself. Please note that this
232might be very slow, however, as your hook is called for B<all> text being
233output.
234
235=item on_line_update $term, $row
236
237Called whenever a line was updated or changed. Can be used to filter
238screen output (e.g. underline urls or other useless stuff). Only lines
239that are being shown will be filtered, and, due to performance reasons,
240not always immediately.
241
242The row number is always the topmost row of the line if the line spans
243multiple rows.
244
245Please note that, if you change the line, then the hook might get called
246later with the already-modified line (e.g. if unrelated parts change), so
247you cannot just toggle rendition bits, but only set them.
120 248
121=item on_refresh_begin $term 249=item on_refresh_begin $term
122 250
123Called just before the screen gets redrawn. Can be used for overlay 251Called just before the screen gets redrawn. Can be used for overlay

131 259
260=item on_keyboard_command $term, $string
261
262Called whenever the user presses a key combination that has a
263C<perl:string> action bound to it (see description of the B<keysym>
264resource in the @@RXVT_NAME@@(1) manpage).

300Creates a new terminal, very similar as if you had started it with
301C<system $binfile, arg...>. Croaks (and probably outputs an error message)
302if the new instance couldn't be created. Returns C<undef> if the new
303instance didn't initialise perl, and the terminal object otherwise. The
304C<init> and C<start> hooks will be called during the call.

328
329Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font styles and
330similar information for each screen cell.
331
332The following "macros" deal with changes in rendition sets. You should
333never just create a bitset, you should always modify an existing one,
334as they contain important information required for correct operation of
335rxvt-unicode.
336
337=over 4
338
339=item $rend = urxvt::DEFAULT_RSTYLE
340

344=item $rend = urxvt::OVERLAY_RSTYLE
345
346Return the rendition mask used for overlays by default.
347
348=item $rendbit = urxvt::RS_Bold, RS_Italic, RS_Blink, RS_RVid, RS_Uline
349
350Return the bit that enabled bold, italic, blink, reverse-video and
351underline, respectively. To enable such a style, just logically OR it into
352the bitset.

368
369Return the "custom" value: Every rendition has 5 bits for use by
370extensions. They can be set and changed as you like and are initially
371zero.

674=item $term->scr_add_lines ($string)
675
676Write the given text string to the screen, as if output by the application
677running inside the terminal. It may not contain command sequences (escape
678codes), but is free to use line feeds, carriage returns and tabs. The
679string is a normal text string, not in locale-dependent encoding.
680
681Normally its not a good idea to use this function, as programs might be
682confused by changes in cursor position or scrolling. Its useful inside a
683C<on_add_lines> hook, though.
684

724
725Returns the negative row number of the topmost line. Minimum value is
726C<0>, which displays the normal terminal contents. Larger values scroll
727this many lines into the scrollback buffer.
728
729=item $term->want_refresh
730
731Requests a screen refresh. At the next opportunity, rxvt-unicode will
732compare the on-screen display with its stored representation. If they
733differ, it redraws the differences.
734
735Used after changing terminal contents to display them.
736
737=item $text = $term->ROW_t ($row_number[, $new_text[, $start_col]])
738
739Returns the text of the entire row with number C<$row_number>. Row C<0>
740is the topmost terminal line, row C<< $term->$ncol-1 >> is the bottommost
741terminal line. The scrollback buffer starts at line C<-1> and extends to
742line C<< -$term->nsaved >>. Nothing will be returned if a nonexistent line
743is requested.
744
745If C<$new_text> is specified, it will replace characters in the current
746line, starting at column C<$start_col> (default C<0>), which is useful
747to replace only parts of a line. The font index in the rendition will
748automatically be updated.
749
750C<$text> is in a special encoding: tabs and wide characters that use more
751than one cell when displayed are padded with urxvt::NOCHAR characters
752(C<chr 65535>). Characters with combining characters and other characters
753that do not fit into the normal tetx encoding will be replaced with
754characters in the private use area.
755
756You have to obey this encoding when changing text. The advantage is
757that C<substr> and similar functions work on screen cells and not on
758characters.
759
760The methods C<< $term->special_encode >> and C<< $term->special_decode >>
761can be used to convert normal strings into this encoding and vice versa.
762
763=item $rend = $term->ROW_r ($row_number[, $new_rend[, $start_col]])
764
765Like C<< $term->ROW_t >>, but returns an arrayref with rendition
766bitsets. Rendition bitsets contain information about colour, font, font
767styles and similar information. See also C<< $term->ROW_t >>.
768
769When setting rendition, the font mask will be ignored.
770
771See the section on RENDITION, above.
772
773=item $length = $term->ROW_l ($row_number[, $new_length])
774
775Returns the number of screen cells that are in use ("the line
776length"). Unlike the urxvt core, this returns C<< $term->ncol >> if the
777line is joined with the following one.
778
779=item $bool = $term->is_longer ($row_number)
780
781Returns true if the row is part of a multiple-row logical "line" (i.e.
782joined with the following row), which means all characters are in use
783and it is continued on the next row (and possibly a continuation of the
784previous row(s)).
785
786=item $line = $term->line ($row_number)
787
788Create and return a new C<urxvt::line> object that stores information
789about the logical line that row C<$row_number> is part of. It supports the
790following methods:
791
792=over 4
793
794=item $text = $line->t ([$new_text])
795
796Returns or replaces the full text of the line, similar to C<ROW_t>
797
798=item $rend = $line->r ([$new_rend])
799
800Returns or replaces the full rendition array of the line, similar to C<ROW_r>
801
802=item $length = $line->l
803
804Returns the length of the line in cells, similar to C<ROW_l>.
805
806=item $rownum = $line->beg
807
808=item $rownum = $line->end
809
810Return the row number of the first/last row of the line, respectively.
811
812=item $offset = $line->offset_of ($row, $col)
813
814Returns the character offset of the given row|col pair within the logical
815line.
816
817=item ($row, $col) = $line->coord_of ($offset)
