You know, I see other videos with maybe half ot this info, all mixed up, and some fancy equipment on behind, and 200k views. This is by far the best tutorial I could find about URxvt. I can't understand why it has so many views. But thank you so mucho for the time you took and for clarifying stuff. Really useful!

This is insane. I love this videos. I am using urxvt for years. I like the fact that you can configure line spacing. Urxvt is so customazible. In fact vim + tmux + urxvt is the most powerful and productive programmer's environment that I have ever used.

+Code Cast Nope, switched to Arch long time ago and don't regret. It's funny that it 'breaks' or make something weird a lot less (well, actually more like never. thanks to wiki) than Ubuntu or Mint. Even with all that "hey, it's rolling release, don't update it till it works". As for Gnome. I used i3wm for 2 months, but feel like stacked wm suits my needs more. So I switched to xfce and don't regret. It's light, fast, mature and I don't imagine lot's of things to implement in the next version. Maybe that's why it has somewhat long release cycle? I wish GNOME was a little bit faster and has a default 'split a window to quarter' function. At the time I installed GNOME3, no plugin from extensions site could do that. More configurable via "settings button", just like XFCE. Bad thing that KDE is so fucked up and buggy. Like jeez there are SO MANY bugs. Even on arch with the latest KDE5. Hope to see in 2-3 years less bugy version of KDE5 (fingers crossed they won't make KDE6 soon), faster and more flexible GNOME3, wayland version of XFCE on GTK3. But yea. I've found my place on Arch and XFCE combo, it works like a charm. Want to thank you for the .dotfiles idea. Which I've seen before, but implemented only after your i3wm videos.

"man urxvt" contains explanations to the config options. Use "/font" to search for font and press "n" to go to the next search result. urxvt is also really good at displaying images through w3m in the terminal! Pretty useful if you use the file manager ranger. 8:12 monospace is not a font name. It’s more like a variable to define your standard mono font. For me the preset was DejaVuSansMono.

Monospace is a font. Monospaced is the adjective describing fonts with consistent letter width
@xGOKOPx
@xGOKOPx 5 жыл бұрын
@@leonk6950 No. When you see a generic font name like just "monospace" or just "sans serif", that's in fact not any particular font. These are meant to depict your default font of that kind and they're set somewhere in your system to some actual font, like DejaVu Sans Mono or something else. It's important because it means that "monospace" on one system may not be the same as "monospace" on another system.

You can also copy and paste the old X way with the mouse. Select text to automatically copy it. Middle click to paste. This uses the same clipboard as other methods, so you can copy text however you usually do it in another program and middle click to paste. Most programs support this method of pasting.

I'm running Arch Linux i3wm if that helps any! Thanks in advance

+KacinMason If the settings apply when you run *xrdb* but not when the system loads, it means your system cannot find *~/.Xresources*. It's case sensitive and lives in *~/*.

Just switched from st to rxvt-unicode, because it is more minimal than st but still comes with scroll support. st claims to be suckless but not having scroll support by default and also crashes when you paste emojis which is a bug. dwm + rxvt-unicode + dmenu+ranger+pcmanfm is my go to basic Arch setup. I have just one gripe with your video, if you look at the Gentoo wiki they recommend creating /home//config/urxvt and calling it in .Xresources with #include "/home//.config/urxvt" That is probably because this video is 6 years old though😛, with the Arch Wiki and the Gentoo Wiki you can fix practically any problem

I'm glad you're making these videos, I'm only just discovering what rxvt is capable of! any plans to do a vid on customizing either vim or emacs? I'm trying to switch from visual studio to the linux tool chain, and the editor features are pretty overwhelming!

+Kevin Polsky I am an avid Vim user and plan to make a similar series of videos about it and Tmux in the future. Hopefully I can help you out because I, too, transitioned from Windows and Visual Studio to Linux and Vim!

Code Cast Hey there. Just trying to make you remember this comment of yours! This topic is really really interesting to me and to a lot of people I think. Now that I'm used to your videos, I don't know if I could stand other people's tutorials or learning in other ways, Haha. You really are a great "teacher", and you make true quality content. Thanks for all you've done, I hope you'll come back from this long pause! Best wishes.

I suppose that you prefer urxvt over termite (or other very minimal terminal). May I ask you why?
@bookercodes

+Michele De Simoni I haven't used Termite so I can't comment, but yes, I do favour minimal terminal emulators.

Thanks for the reply! Well termite is very similar to urxvt. It has all its perks plus a more polished and modern look / configuration process. However it is also modal with vim like commands and keybindings. After seeing your i3 series I thought you may be interested in it since it fits perfectly into tiling wm and vim muscle memory.

+Michele De Simoni I'm curious to check it out. The thing is, I use a terminal multiplexer called tmux which, in a nutshell, enables me to do those things already.

Is there a difference between uxterm and urxvt? Is one more customizable than the other?

I had honestly never heard of _uxterm_ before reading this comment. A quick Google search later and there _does_ appear to be a difference, yes.
