2 add support for all non-multichoice options listed in "./configure
3 --help". Note that unlike other enable options this is order
4 dependant. You can specify this and then disable options which
5 this enables by _following_ this with the appropriate commands.
7 add support for xft (anti-aliases, among others) fonts. xft fonts are
8 slower and require lots of memory, but as long as you don't use them,
9 you don't pay for them.
10 --with-codesets=NAME,...
11 compile in support for additional codeset groups:
12 jp common japanese encodings
13 jp_ext rarely used but big japanese encodings
15 cn common chinese encodings
16 cn_ext rarely used but very big chinese encodigs
19 add support for XIM (X Input Method) protocol. This allows using
20 alternative input methods (e.g. kinput2) and will also correctly
21 set up the input for people using dead keys or compose keys.
23 enable support for unicode codepoints above 65535 (the basic
24 multilingual page). This increases storage requirements per character
25 from 2 to 4 bytes and is not too useful as font support in X11 and Xft
26 is largely missing, although cut & paste will work correctly, as will
27 displaying, if you have the right font(s).
28 --enable-fallback(=CLASS)
29 when reading resource settings, also read settings for class CLASS
30 (default: Rxvt). To disable resource fallback use --disable-fallback.
32 use the given name (default: urxvt) as default application name
33 when reading resources. Specify --with-res-name=rxvt to replace
35 --with-res-class=CLASS
36 use the given class (default: URxvt) as default application class
37 when reading resources. Specify --with-res-class=Rxvt to replace
40 write user and tty to utmp file (used by programs like ``w'') at
41 start of rxvt execution and delete information when rxvt exits.
43 write user and tty to wtmp file (used by programs like ``last'') at
44 start of rxvt execution and write logout when rxvt exits. This
45 option requires --enable-utmp to also be specified.
47 write user and tty to lastlog file (used by programs like
48 ``lastlogin'') at start of rxvt execution. This option requires
49 --enable-utmp to also be specified.
50 --enable-xpm-background
51 add support for XPM background pixmaps
53 add support for inheriting parent backgrounds thus giving a fake
54 transparency to the term
56 add support for our menu bar system (this interacts badly with
57 dynamic locale switching currently)
59 add support for the original rxvt scrollbar
61 add support for a NeXT-like scrollbar
63 add support for an Xterm-like scrollbar
65 add support for a very unobtrusive, plain-looking scrollbar that
66 is the favourite of the rxvt-unicode author, having used it for
69 make shadows on the scrollbar only half the normal width & height.
70 only applicable to rxvt scrollbars
72 change tty device setting to group "tty" - only use this if
73 your system uses this type of security
74 --disable-backspace-key
75 disable any handling of the backspace key by us - let the X server
78 disable any handling of the delete key by us - let the X server
81 remove all resources checking
83 make resources checking via XGetDefault() instead of our small
84 version which only checks ~/.Xdefaults, or if that doesn't exist
87 add support for our possibly faster memset() function and other
88 various routines, overriding your system's versions which may
89 have been hand-crafted in assembly or may require extra libraries
90 to link in. (this breaks ANSI-C rules and has problems on many
93 remove support for swap screen
95 add support for some lesser used features
97 add support to provide user specified line spacing between text rows
98 --enable-keepscrolling
99 add support for continual scrolling of the display when you hold
100 the mouse button down on a scrollbar arrow
102 add support for scrolling via mouse wheel or buttons 4 & 5
103 --enable-slipwheeling
104 add support for continual scrolling (using the mouse wheel as an
105 accelerator) while the control key is held down. This option
106 requires --enable-mousewheel to also be specified.
107 --enable-old-selection
108 remove support for reverting the mouse selection style to that
110 --disable-new-selection
111 remove support for mouse selection style like that of xterm
113 use Gray Watson's malloc - which is good for debugging
114 See http://www.letters.com/dmalloc/ for details
115 If you use either this or the next option, you may need to
116 edit src/Makefile after compiling to point DINCLUDE and DLIB to
118 You can only use either this option and the following (should
121 use Doug Lea's malloc - which is good for a production version
122 See http://g.oswego.edu/dl/html/malloc.html for details
123 --enable-smart-resize
124 add smart growth/shrink behaviour when changing font size
125 via from hot keys. This should keep in a fixed position the
126 rxvt corner which is closest to a corner of the screen
128 add support for 256 colours rather than the base 16 colours
129 --enable-cursor-blink
130 add support for a blinking cursor
131 --enable-pointer-blank
132 add support to have the pointer disappear when typing or inactive
134 set the basename for the installed binaries (default: urxvt, resulting
135 in urxvt, urxvtd etc.). Specify --with-name=rxvt to replace rxvt.
137 change the environmental variable for the terminal to NAME
140 change the environmental variable for the path to the terminfo
143 use the X Window System (pretty much default, eh?)
144 --with-xpm-includes=DIR
145 look for the XPM includes in DIR
146 --with-xpm-library=DIR
147 look for the XPM library in DIR
149 not needed - define via --enable-xpm-background
