UrxvtControl-1.3
Posted: Fri 16 Jan 2015, 19:33
System Requirements
rxvt-unicode (urxvt), gtkdialog4 (0.7.21 or greater), xdialog, perl (optional)
Purpose and Base Features
UrxvtControl provides graphical access to common configuration options of the rxvt-unicode (urxvt) terminal emulator. The user interface automatically adjusts to the available options supported by the installed version of urxvt. For example, the default urxvt 9.05 of most Puppies released since 2008 does not (as compiled) provide native support for Perl plugins. However, urxvt 9.20 of tahrpup-6.x supports useful plugins (extensions) such as tabs, clickable URLs and auto-copy of selected text to the X-Clipboard.
UrxvtControl Options
•Color of Foreground (Text) and Background
•Color of Cursor, URLs and Underline (urxvt >= 9.19 is required for cursor color independent of underline color)
•Tabs (on/off) and Tab Color (Perl plugin support required, such as urxvt 9.20 in tahrpup 6.x)
•Font Name and Style Attributes (Default:fixed-width monospace fonts)
•Font Size (Default:15 Range:10-24)
•Font Antialiasing (on/off)
•Font Hinting (on/off)
•Font Spacing (Default:0 Range:-5 .. 0) Note: requires urxvt >= 9.07
•Interface Width (Default:80 Range:50-200)
•Interface Height (Default:24 Range:10-80)
•Borderless (on/off) Note: This option is window-manager dependent. For example, supported by openbox, but not by JWM).
•Transparency (on/off)
•Transparency Shading (Default:85, Darken (0 .. 100) or lighten (-1 .. -100))
•Scroll Bar (on/off)
•Scroll Side (right or left)
•Scroll Style (rxvt and plain, plus next and xterm in supported compilations of urxvt - such as tahrpup 6.x)
•Scroll Width (Default:10 Range:7-20) Note: This option applies only to rxvt, plain and xterm scroll styles.
•Scrollback buffer (Default:1000 Range:0-65535) Note: Large scrollback buffers require more system memory.
For your convenience, the 'Tabs' option may be enabled or disabled without changing the status of other Perl extensions, or you can select the tray 'Plugin' button to completely enable/disable Perl extensions. The 'Restore' button will reload the original urxvt configuration settings that were in place before the first-run of UrxvtControl. If required, the 'Edit' button will provide quick access to /root/.Xdefaults for viewing or manual editing of the urxvt configuration settings. For a tooltip status report, please hover the mouse pointer over the interface header text (Urxvt Terminal Control).
Caveats for the resize-font and tabbed plugins
Window:
The tabbed plugin interferes with the capacity of the resize-font plugin to correctly resize the terminal window when the font size changes on-the-fly. Consequently, this may require manual resizing of the window to view all text. However, if the tabbed plugin is disabled (Tabs=off in UrxvtControl), the resize-font plugin maintains the correct aspect ratio of the terminal window.
Text:
When the resize-font plugin is enabled, text displayed in the terminal may truncate when a maximized urxvt window is restored to the original size. Also, decreasing text to a very small size (1-2 px) may result in complete loss of visible text.
