Emacs and urxvt [solved]

I'm trying to get the backspace key working properly. According to describe-key:
The backspace key gets interpreted as C-d
If I run the following elisp:
(global-set-key "\C-d" 'delete-backward-char)
Then the backspace key works properly but C-d is also affected.
Anyone have a way around this?
Versions:
emacs 23.3.a-3
rxvt-unicode 9.12-2

I don't think so.
[tillotson@pinkie ~]$ echo $TERM
rxvt-unicode-256color
I don't really know much about terminfo etc but this might explain some things:
[tillotson@pinkie ~]$ infocmp | grep kbs
    kb2=\EOu, kbs=\177, kc1=\EOq, kc3=\EOs, kcbt=\E[Z,
[tillotson@pinkie ~]$ infocmp | grep "\^D"
[tillotson@pinkie ~]$ infocmp | grep "\^H"
    csr=\E[%i%p1%d;%p2%dr, cub=\E[%p1%dD, cub1=^H,
[tillotson@pinkie ~]$

  • Openbox and urxvt(solved)

    I have two questions.First,how can i start urxvt when openbox starts.If i put urxvt in autostart.sh,it starts at up left corner,and i can't type anything,i must kill it.When i start urxvt normaly, it starts at down left corner because of rc.xml setings:
    <application name="urxvt">
    <decor>no</decor>
    <focus>yes</focus>
    <position>
    <x>20</x>
    <y>-20</y>
    </position>
    <layer>below</layer>
    <desktop>all</desktop>
    <skip_taskbar>yes</skip_taskbar>
    </application>
    Second,is there any way to give the urxvt focus with keyboard in openbox,maybe using xbinkeys?

    For the lower left corner, you can use the --geometry option of urxvt, so it would read something to the effect of

    Isn't it geometry of window size,not geometry, where placed window?
    The geometry of a window is BOTH size and position in the following format widthxheight+x+y.
    Now plus values for x and y would start in the upper left, negative values would make it lower right if you do both, etc....
    Now, if you look at my example above:
    urxvt -geometry +20-20
    You have urxvt being placed at positive x value and negative y value WITHOUT height and width.
    Because it has the plus and minus attributes, the geometry value is positional only!  If you forget the plus or the minus, then yes, it would be taken as size or something.   If you don't believe me, then try it, ZaQ.
    Yes,it works,but if i put it in autostart.sh just like that,after starting, urxvt  just stop working,and i must kill it. Maybe it happens because i have many things in autostart.sh.

    Hi "arunix"
    The reason "wonder" suggested what he did has to do with the fact that certain libraries are used by numerous programs. For example, libjpeg is the library (you guessed it) that decodes jpegs. When programs are compiled they are linked to the version of the library that is currently installed on the maintainers computer at time (or yours if you roll your own). As you can imagine there are quite a lot of programs that need jpeg decoding so libjpeg is a biggie. Recently libjpeg  was updated to a newer version so all the apps that use that library (and there are quite a few as you can imagine) have to be rebuilt so they will be linked to the new library (which I'm assuming you are using the new version because of the error your getting). This, of course is conveniently taken care of and a simple "pacman -Syu" should alleviate most of your problems. If you search the forum (from about 2-3 weeks ago) you will find all sorts of posts about this issue.  I had this issue until I re-compiled all my programs that use libjpeg.
    Hope this helps!
    Just a piece of future advice though, make sure to search this forum (or the wiki) thoroughly because most of the time the issues you are having has already been encountered and possibly solved by others. 

  • [SOLVED] problem with zsh and urxvt and keybinding

    I hope this is the right forum to post this problem, else please move it to the right forum.
    I have zsh and urxvt installed and I am quite pleased with it, except for one problem,
    When I push the delete button in urxvt I get a ~ instead of deleting the next character. In aterm and xterm I don't have this problem.
    I'm sure that there is a way to make the right keybinding for this, but I can't find the solution. Is there someone who can point me in the right direction?

    These are my most current bindkeys...
    case $TERM in (rxvt*) #urxvt
    bindkey "\e[7~" beginning-of-line
    bindkey "\e[8~" end-of-line
    esac
    bindkey "^A" beginning-of-line
    bindkey "^E" end-of-line
    bindkey '^?' backward-delete-char
    bindkey "\e[3~" delete-char
    Open a terminal, hit ctrl-V, and press delete.  It should print the key generated.  The first ^[ is escaped as \e.
    So, on my terminal I see ^[[3~
    I put bindkey "\e[3~" delete-char in my ~/.zshrc, and there you go.

  • Can´t use ÅÄÖ in filenaming and in urxvt [SOLVED]

    I´m getting nutts, I searched the net on how to get it to work but haven´t found a solution.
    In Nautilus I can´t change a file or folder to a name with ÅÄÖ in the name, when i try it just prints me that it´s not valid.
    And in urxvt I can´t type ÅÄÖ either, nothing happens when I press the keys.
    It works fine when writing in documents and so on but not in filenames and urxvt.
    Here is some of my configed files...
    rc.conf
    LOCALE="sv_SE.utf8"
    HARDWARECLOCK="localtime"
    USEDIRECTISA="no"
    TIMEZONE="Europe/Stockholm"
    KEYMAP="sv-latin1"
    CONSOLEFONT=
    CONSOLEMAP=
    USECOLOR="yes"
    fstab
    /dev/sda3 /mnt/sda3 ntfs-3g defaults,user,locale=sv_SE.utf8 0 0
    In locale.gen both "sv_SE.UTF-8 UTF-8" and "sv_SE ISO-8859-1" is uncommented.
    Would really appreciate some help here

    1) Try "setxkbmap se", after xorg-server 1.6 and/or evdev 2.2.1 update I have to use setxkbmap with X, "fi" layout in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-keymap.fdi doesn't seem to work
    2) Start urxvt from another urxvt, and if you see something like
    urxvt: the locale is not supported by Xlib, working without locale support.
    try starting with LC_CTYPE="en_US.utf8" urxvt and see if it works; of course you would need that locale. I personally specify LC_CTYPE in ~/.profile.
    I used option 2) with success before, but now I use 1) since 2) doesn't seem to be enough.
    In ttys I get "åäö" with "altgr+åäö", without altgr it's "}{|" respectively. Haven't really looked into it, since i don't use them
    Also, ntfs doesn't need locale option anymore http://www.ntfs-3g.org/releases.html
    Change: The 'locale=' mount option is not used anymore for filename characterset conversion. Instead filenames are always converted to UTF-8.

  • Emacs and emacs -nw with solarized look different

    Hey,
    I installed solarized for emacs and in my .Xdefaults (https://github.com/solarized/xresources/blob/master/solarized from here).
    Emacs looks fine, but everything in my urxvt looks slightly off, compared to emacs.
    Here is a screen shot between emacs -nw and emacs side by side:
    http://p67.img-up.net/screenshot8025.png
    The colors are kind of switched. Is there something wrong with the color scheme in my xresources?
    Or do I have to to something additional to get the solarized look right in emacs -nw and urxvt?
    Thanks!
    EDIT:
    setting:URxvt*termName: rxvt-unicode-256color
    change the look of emacs -nw, but now it looks even more wrong.
    Other console programms look better now.

    Ok I've installed everything and put the following into the .emacs file:
    (require 'org-install)
    ;; The following lines are always needed. Choose your own keys.
    (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.org\\'" . org-mode))
    (global-set-key "\C-cl" 'org-store-link)
    (global-set-key "\C-ca" 'org-agenda)

    'org-babel-load-languages
    '((R . t)
    The last part being the bit about babel - the business end for R. Now I don't need to install anything else? Or any other lisp's for babel? But! The .emacs file is not producing any errors now when I start emacs up.
    [EDIT] Everything work's now I've installed an external - more up to date distribution of Org!

    "Your email account" means to tap on the name of your email account. Whatever it is listed as in the settings.
    In my mail settings, one of my email accounts is a Comcast account. I tap on the Comcast name and it brings up this window.
    Then I tap on the arrow under the Outgoing mail server smtp setting to get to the next window.
    In the resulting window, I then tap on the arrow next to the smtp server under the Primary Server setting.
    That brings up this window in which I check to make sure that my user name and password have been entered correctly. If those items are missing, enter them in the appropriate fields and then tap done.

    I am using a 2003 eMac and am running on Mac OSX  vs 10.4.11. I amrunning iTunes 8.2.1 (6) and not able to upgrade iTunes on this computer. iTunes is not recognizing music I have purchased and when I try to connect when it request me to I get the following error message:
    Cannot complete  iTunes Store request. A required iTunes component is not installed (-42404)
    Please help.

    Is this music purchased back in DRM days? I don't actually have any iTunes music so I can't test with my iTunes 7.5, but I know that without iTunes 10 you cannot even connect to the store anymore.  I wouldn't think that would require an active connection to the store all the time, otherwise how could you play music on a computer in the middle of nowhere?  Did you do something to trigger iTunes suddenly wanting to connect and check on machine authorization?

  • 2003 eMac and 23inches new Apple display compatible?

    I just got a new display (23in Apple) and I would like to plug it in my eMac
    which only seems to have a VGA oulet,
    Does anyone know of an adaptor that could do the trick?
    Couldn't see any on the Mac online store.
    Thanks a million for any suggestion.
    Francis

    There are VGA to DVI converters, but they run about $300.00 US (you can find one such here). And your eMac doesn't support extended desktop, only mirroring, so unless you install a firmware hack (which you use strictly at your own risk), you would get the same picture at the same resolution as on your eMac's screen. Even with the hack, I'm not sure if the eMac would support the 23" LCD's resolution.
    So it's up to you whether or not it's worth it. You could probably sell your eMac and combine that with the cost of the converter and buy a new Mac mini which would support that monitor directly.

    " Are the eMac and the G4 Mac Mini similar enough to use the eMac's tiger upgrade to upgrade my mini to Tiger? "
    No.
    "I know the other versions of tiger upgrades are specific to the hardware"
    And so are the eMac's upgrade discs.

    Your profile indicates your Mac is running v10.7.2
    If that is correct, updating your system software may help.
    Click Software Update from the Apple menu.
    Restart your Mac after updates are installed then try the App Store.
    If you can't update that way, there's a workaround.
    Install the OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo)
    Then restart your Mac and try the App Store.

  • Networking eMac and MacBook

    Hi,
    I have a eMac, MacBook, HP Printer *** Scanner *** Photocopier and a External Hard Drive and want to set up a network with Airport Extreme. The purpose being to be able to access my eMac HD from my MacBook and vice versa. Similarly I want to use the Pinter *** Scanner for both my eMac and MacBook and also use the external HDD for both my eMac and MacBook. I also am using wi-fi to connect to the net.
    1. Is it possible to create a network?
    2. If possible, how difficult is it?
    3. What are the other software and hardware that is required to create this network?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Senthil

    1. Is it possible to create a network?
    The AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) is a router so using an AEBS creates a network.
    The USB port on the AEBS does NOT support scanning. The USB port supports printing and hard drives ONLY.
    3. What are the other software and hardware that is required to create this network?
    Connect a router like the AEBS. That is all you need.
