urxvt is my favorite termimal
It renders fonts nicely, supports unicode and has various other interesting features.
I’ve also configured it to open links on mouse click!
To configure urxvt to look like the above screenshots, add the following in your ~/.Xdefaults file:
URxvt*loginShell:true
URxvt*transparent:true
URxvt*shading:5
URxvt*background:Black
URxvt*foreground:White
URxvt*scrollBar:true
URxvt*scrollBar_right:true
URxvt*scrollBar_floating:false
URxvt*scrollstyle:plain
URxvt*secondaryScroll:true
# how many lines you want it to save per session
URxvt*saveLines:32767
URxvt*troughColor:#000000
URxvt*scrollColor:#222222
URxvt*font: xft:Dejavu Sans Mono:pixelsize=11
# with this set to true, when an app sends a bell to the terminal, awesome hilights the appropriate tag(s) ;)
URxvt*urgentOnBell: true
# these three lines enable clicking on links to open them ;)
## if you want to enable tab support, append ,tabbed to the next line
## then use shift+down arrow to create tabs and shift+{left,right} arrows to switch between them
URxvt*perl-ext-common: default,matcher,-option-popup,-selection-popup,-realine
URxvt*matcher.button: 1
# don't forget to change this to your favorite browser
URxvt*urlLauncher: chromium
enjoy!
[…] urxvt – the unbeatable terminal […]
And does it have tabs?
I don’t like tabs, but yeah, it does have tab support
Start urxvt with the following command: urxvt -pe tabbed
or append ,tabbed to the URxvt*perl-ext-common line in your .Xdefaults,
then use shift+down arrow to create a tab and shift+{left,right} arrows to switch between tabs.
# you’ll have to create a separate script to actully open the browser
Why exactly? I have this configuration :
urxvt*urlLauncher: firefox
And it’s working just fine.
Indeed
creating a script allows you to do stuff before launching the browser.
I can’t remember the exact reason now but when I originally added this I ran more commands.
I’ll adjust the post, thanks

take a look on your free time
Hello, I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues.
When I look at
your blog site in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it
has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick
heads up! Other then that, awesome blog!
tbh I’ve never viewed this blog using IE
thanks for the info though, I’ll check it out.
