<p>This manpage describes the <strong>urxvtc</strong> client program. It connects |
| 42 |
|
|
to the <strong>urxvtd</strong> daemon and requests a new terminal window. It |
| 43 |
|
|
takes the same arguments as the <strong>urxvt</strong> program. The environment |
| 44 |
root |
1.1 |
will also be respected. Currently, it always returns immediately after |
| 45 |
|
|
contacting the daemon.</p> |

root |

<p>All options that are valid for <strong>urxvt</strong> are valid for |
| 51 |
|
|
<strong>urxvtc</strong>, too. Please note that all options are currently |
| 52 |
root |
1.1 |
interpreted in the context of the daemon process, which makes a difference |
| 53 |
|
|
for options that specify a file descriptor (such as <strong>-pty-fd</strong>).</p> |

<p>If everything went well, urxvtc returns with an exit status of <code>0</code>. |
| 59 |
root |
1.3 |
If contacting the daemon fails, it exits with the exit status <code>2</code>. In all other error |
| 60 |
|
|
cases it returns with status <code>1</code>.</p> |
| 61 |
|
|
<p>This can be used to implement auto-starting behaviour, by checking for an |
| 62 |
root |
1.4 |
exit status of <code>2</code>, running <code>urxvtd -f -q</code> and retrying the call |
| 63 |
|
|
to urxvtc.</p> |

<p>All environment variables of the current process will be made available |

<p>Both urxvtc and urxvtd use the environment variable |
