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.

98hints on what they mean:

102=item $text
103
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.
112
113=item $octets
114
115Either binary data or - more common - a text string encoded in a
116locale-specific way.

107Called after a new terminal object has been initialized, but before 141Called after a new terminal object has been initialized, but before
108windows 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.

189 226
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.
248
190=item on_refresh_begin $term 249=item on_refresh_begin $term

285Creates a new terminal, very similar as if you had started it with
286C<system $binfile, arg...>. Croaks (and probably outputs an error message)
287if the new instance couldn't be created. Returns C<undef> if the new
288instance didn't initialise perl, and the terminal object otherwise. The
289C<init> and C<start> hooks will be called during the call.

659=item $term->scr_add_lines ($string)
660
661Write the given text string to the screen, as if output by the application
662running inside the terminal. It may not contain command sequences (escape
663codes), but is free to use line feeds, carriage returns and tabs. The
664string is a normal text string, not in locale-dependent encoding.
665
666Normally its not a good idea to use this function, as programs might be
667confused by changes in cursor position or scrolling. Its useful inside a
668C<on_add_lines> hook, though.
669
670=item $term->cmd_parse ($octets)
671
672Similar to C<scr_add_lines>, but the argument must be in the
673locale-specific encoding of the terminal and can contain command sequences
674(escape codes) that will be interpreted.
