Everytime a terminal object gets created, extension scripts specified via

the \f(CW\*(C`perl\*(C'\fR resource are loaded and associated with it.
160

Scripts are compiled in a 'use strict' and 'use utf8' environment, and

161
thus must be encoded as \s-1UTF\-8\s0.
163

Each script will only ever be loaded once, even in @@RXVT_NAME@@d, where

scripts will be shared (but not enabled) for all terminals.

Intelligent selection. This extension tries to be more intelligent when
178
the user extends selections (double\-click). Right now, it tries to select
179
urls and complete shell-quoted arguments, which is very convenient, too,
180
if your \fIls\fR supports \f(CW\*(C`\-\-quoting\-style=shell\*(C'\fR.

It also offers the following bindable event:

(More) intelligent selection. This extension tries to be more intelligent
178
when the user extends selections (double\-click and further clicks). Right
179
now, it tries to select words, urls and complete shell-quoted
180
arguments, which is very convenient, too, if your \fIls\fR supports
181
\&\f(CW\*(C`\-\-quoting\-style=shell\*(C'\fR.
183
A double-click usually selects the word under the cursor, further clicks
184
will enlarge the selection.
186
The selection works by trying to match a number of regexes and displaying
187
them in increasing order of length. You can add your own regexes by
188
specifying resources of the form:
191
\& URxvt.selection.pattern-0: perl-regex
192
\& URxvt.selection.pattern-1: perl-regex
196
The index number (0, 1...) must not have any holes, and each regex must
197
contain at least one pair of capturing parentheses, which will be used for
198
the match. For example, the followign adds a regex that matches everything
199
between two vertical bars:
202
\& URxvt.selection.pattern-0: \e\e|([^|]+)\e\e|
205
You can look at the source of the selection extension to see more
206
interesting uses, such as parsing a line from beginning to end.

.IP "searchable\-scrollback<hotkey> (enabled by default)" 4

.IX Item "searchable-scrollback<hotkey> (enabled by default)"
231
Adds regex search functionality to the scrollback buffer, triggered
232
by a hotkey (default: \f(CW\*(C`M\-s\*(C'\fR). While in search mode, normal terminal
233
input/output is suspended and a regex is displayed at the bottom of the
236
Inputting characters appends them to the regex and continues incremental
237
search. \f(CW\*(C`BackSpace\*(C'\fR removes a character from the regex, \f(CW\*(C`Up\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`Down\*(C'\fR
238
search upwards/downwards in the scrollback buffer, \f(CW\*(C`End\*(C'\fR jumps to the
239
bottom. \f(CW\*(C`Escape\*(C'\fR leaves search mode and returns to the point where search
240
was started, while \f(CW\*(C`Enter\*(C'\fR or \f(CW\*(C`Return\*(C'\fR stay at the current position and
241
additionally stores the first match in the current line into the primary

.IP "selection-autotransform" 4
244
.IX Item "selection-autotransform"
245
This selection allows you to do automatic transforms on a selection
246
whenever a selection is made.
248
It works by specifying perl snippets (most useful is a single \f(CW\*(C`s///\*(C'\fR
249
operator) that modify \f(CW$_\fR as resources:
252
\& URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: transform
253
\& URxvt.selection-autotransform.1: transform
257
For example, the following will transform selections of the form
258
\&\f(CW\*(C`filename:number\*(C'\fR, often seen in compiler messages, into \f(CW\*(C`vi +$filename
262
\& URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^([^:[:space:]]+):(\e\ed+):?$/vi +$2 \e\eQ$1\e\eE\e\ex0d/
265
And this example matches the same,but replaces it with vi-commands you can
266
paste directly into your (vi :) editor:
269
\& URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^([^:[:space:]]+(\e\ed+):?$/\e\ex1b:e \e\eQ$1\e\eE\e\ex0d:$2\e\ex0d/
272
Of course, this can be modified to suit your needs and your editor :)
274
To expand the example above to typical perl error messages (\*(L"\s-1XXX\s0 at
275
\&\s-1FILENAME\s0 line \s-1YYY\s0.\*(R"), you need a slightly more elaborate solution:
278
\& URxvt.selection.pattern-0: ( at .*? line \e\ed+\e\e.)
279
\& URxvt.selection-autotransform.0: s/^ at (.*?) line (\e\ed+)\e\e.$/\ex1b:e \e\eQ$1\eE\e\ex0d:$2\e\ex0d/
282
The first line tells the selection code to treat the unchanging part of
283
every error message as a selection pattern, and the second line transforms
284
the message into vi commands to load the file.
287
Uses per-line display filtering (\f(CW\*(C`on_line_update\*(C'\fR) to underline urls and
288
make them clickable. When middle\-clicked, the program specified in the
289
resource \f(CW\*(C`urlLauncher\*(C'\fR (default \f(CW\*(C`x\-www\-browser\*(C'\fR) will be started with
290
the \s-1URL\s0 as first argument.

.IX Subsection "Extension Objects"
336
Very perl extension is a perl class. A separate perl object is created
337
for each terminal and each extension and passed as the first parameter to
338
hooks. So extensions can use their \f(CW$self\fR object without having to think
339
about other extensions, with the exception of methods and members that
340
begin with an underscore character \f(CW\*(C`_\*(C'\fR: these are reserved for internal
343
Although it isn't a \f(CW\*(C`urxvt::term\*(C'\fR object, you can call all methods of the
344
\&\f(CW\*(C`urxvt::term\*(C'\fR class on this object.

357
to overwrite time-critical hooks only temporarily.

its not a real \f(CW\*(C`urxvt::term\*(C'\fR object. Instead, the real \f(CW\*(C`urxvt::term\*(C'\fR

All of them must return a boolean value. If it is true, then the event

counts as being \fIconsumed\fR, and the invocation of other hooks is skipped,

When in doubt, return a false value (preferably \f(CW\*(C`()\*(C'\fR).

470
not always immediately.
