The Linux Manuals (man pages) document is an important part of Linux documents. Linux Manuals are organized as several sections. Each section has a group of commands for a specific area in Linux usage, administration or development.
NAME tabbed – tabbed interface to urxvt DESCRIPTION This transforms the terminal into a tabbar with additional terminals, that is, it implements what is commonly referred to as “tabbed terminal”. The topmost line displays a “[NEW]” button, which, when clicked, will add a new tab, followed by one button per tab. Clicking a button will…
NAME selection – more intelligent selection (enabled by default) DESCRIPTION This extension tries to be more intelligent when the user extends selections (double-click and further clicks). Right now, it tries to select words, urls and complete shell-quoted arguments, which is very convenient, too, if your ls supports "–quoting-style=shell". A double-click usually selects the word under…
NAME selection-to-clipboard – copy the selection to the clipboard each time a selection is made SYNOPSIS urxvt -pe selection-to-clipboard DESCRIPTION This very simple extension copies the selection to the clipboard every time a selection is made. This, in effect, synchronises the clipboard with the selection for selections done by rxvt-unicode. Index
NAME selection-popup (enabled by default) DESCRIPTION Binds a popup menu to Ctrl-Button3 that lets you paste the X selections and either modify or use the internal selection text in various ways (such as uri unescaping, perl evaluation, web-browser starting etc.), depending on content. Other extensions can extend this popup menu by pushing a code reference…
NAME selection-pastebin – automatic pastebin upload EXAMPLES URxvt.keysym.C-M-e: selection-pastebin:remote-pastebin DESCRIPTION This is a little rarely useful extension that uploads the selection as textfile to a remote site (or does other things). (The implementation is not currently secure for use in a multiuser environment as it writes to /tmp directly.). It listens to the "selection-pastebin:remote-pastebin" action,…
NAME selection-autotransform – automatically transform select text DESCRIPTION This selection allows you to do automatic transforms on a selection whenever a selection is made. It works by specifying perl snippets (most useful is a single "s///" operator) that modify $_ as resources: URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: transform URxvt.selection-autotransform.1: transform … For example, the following will transform selections of…
NAME searchable-scrollback – incremental scrollback search (enabled by default) DESCRIPTION Adds regex search functionality to the scrollback buffer, triggered by the "searchable-scrollback:start" action (bound to "M-s" by default). While in search mode, normal terminal input/output is suspended and a regex is displayed at the bottom of the screen. Inputting characters appends them to the regex…
NAME remote-clipboard – manage a shared and possibly remote clipboard DESCRIPTION Somewhat of a misnomer, this extension adds two menu entries to the selection popup that allows one to run external commands to store the selection somewhere and fetch it again. We use it to implement a “distributed selection mechanism”, which just means that one…
NAME readline – improve readline editing (enabled by default) DESCRIPTION A support package that tries to make editing with readline easier. At the moment, it reacts to clicking shift-left mouse button by trying to move the text cursor to this position. It does so by generating as many cursor-left or cursor-right keypresses as required (this…
NAME overlay-osc – implement OSC to manage overlays DESCRIPTION This extension implements some OSC commands to display timed popups on the screen – useful for status displays from within scripts. You have to read the sources for more info. Index
NAME option-popup – option menu (enabled by default) DESCRIPTION Binds a popup menu to Ctrl-Button2 that lets you toggle (some) options at runtime. Other extensions can extend this popup menu by pushing a code reference onto "@{ $term->{option_popup_hook} }", which gets called whenever the popup is being displayed. Its sole argument is the popup menu,…
NAME urxvt256c-mld – urxvt256c-ml terminal daemon SYNOPSIS urxvt256c-mld [-q|–quiet] [-o|–opendisplay] [-f|–fork] [-m|–mlock] [-e|–eval perlstring] urxvt256c-mld -q -o -f # for .xsession use DESCRIPTION This manpage describes the urxvt256c-mld daemon, which is the same vt102 terminal emulator as urxvt256c-ml, but runs as a daemon that can open multiple terminal windows within the same process. You can…
NAME urxvt256c-mlc – control the urxvt256c-mld daemon SYNOPSIS urxvt256c-mlc [same options as for urxvt256c-ml] DESCRIPTION This manpage describes the urxvt256c-mlc client program. It connects to the urxvt256c-mld daemon and requests a new terminal window. It takes the same arguments as the urxvt256c-ml program. The environment will also be respected. Currently, it always returns immediately after…
NAME rxvt-unicode (ouR XVT, unicode) – (a VT102 emulator for the X window system) SYNOPSIS urxvt256c-ml [options] [-e command [ args ]] DESCRIPTION rxvt-unicode, version 9.21, is a colour vt102 terminal emulator intended as an xterm(1) replacement for users who do not require features such as Tektronix 4014 emulation and toolkit-style configurability. As a result,…
NAME xim-onthespot – implement XIM "on-the-spot" behaviour DESCRIPTION This perl extension implements OnTheSpot editing. It does not work perfectly, and some input methods don’t seem to work well with OnTheSpot editing in general, but it seems to work at least for SCIM and kinput2. You enable it by specifying this extension and a preedit style…
