A full circle. I've been using st for several years but found an incompatibility beyond reasonable repair with neovim. So if I have to choose between my terminal emulator and my text editor, terminal emulator loses 100/100 times.

Crisp webcam! Very nice that you have been uploading so much interesting stuff lately. It really gives me a reason to experiment and escape from my daily tasks.
Transparency only worked for me using those settings (Neon Linux Dev Edition + i3 + compton) URxvt*transparent: true URxvt*shading: 30 Great material as always, btw!!
If you don't want to use a compositor such as compton, xcompmgr, compiz etc, you can enable "fake" transparency, by using: URxvt*transparent: true URxvt*shading: 50 URxvt*inheritPixmap: true Bear in mind the background image (fake transparency) won't update as smoothly when compared to using a compositor with the "URxvt*background: [90]#000000" setting.
Thanks man, this just helped me out. For others: unfortunately you don't see stuff like conky, but IMO still better than having to use yet another program
A *pink* cursor? Very bold, my good sir! But seriously, having used xterm for 3 decades (man, I'm old), Terminal on macOS since Cheetah (March 2001) and PuTTY since its first publication - from what you’ve showed us, I like URXVT, and I will give it a whirl! Cheers!
pyval will override your transparency value too. To keep it, include the desired transparency level when calling pywal eg: wal -R -a 80 (for an 80% transparency)
Thanks for your Larbs i3 script. I was using it on Arch but recently moved to MXLinux 17. It is working perfectly. Once I added your Xdefaults settings everything looked superb. Thankyou so much and merry christmas.
I try out many terminals. I like st + tmux. Been using mostly gnome-terminal. I like Tilix and a old but goodie Sakura. Oh and I still like Terminator as well. You like me, just get things to work in a nice workflow. I can adapt to about anything, I get my hands dirty and just think outside the box as well. Been using Linux for the past 15 years and enjoying every second of it. Everybody likes you videos, well I also like them as well.
I remember figuring out by online discussion threads that the only reason I personally should consider rxvt, is just the daemon mode. I've preferred xterm for it's barebones nature but support for modern needs like the clipboard and configuralble color output. In the past, I recall I've found rxvt to be annoying to set up and to use some specific applications in it. But I can't remember the details. Let's see if this video changes my mind or do I continue with xterm.
Aaaand: nope. Maybe some other time if I choose to go full on autistic about a setup and I have the free time, but for now pcmanfm is just fine and I do all my my link 'clicking' in the browser or thunderbird. And Xorg compositing is a bad meme and consumes battery (even though transparency looks nice).
This is a Git Repo, so just take it from an older version, e.g. github.com/LukeSmithxyz/voidrice/blob/496aea4504c70fe165faf90db0bf1d95efa00caf/.Xdefaults
tip: yanking text with perl keyboard-select vim mode goes to primary buffer and you might want to use the X clipboard instead for use with X applications. add this to .Xdefaults: urxvt.perl-ext-common: default,keyboard-select,url-select, *clipboard* ,resize-font *URxvt.clipboard.autocopy: true* *URxvt.clipboard.copycmd: xclip -i -selection clipboard* *URxvt.clipboard.pastecmd: xclip -o -selection clipboard* it needs to have xclip installed, or another clipboard manager. an alternative is to paste directly from primary buffer by shift+ insert i also like to add bindings for copy-paste in urxvt: *URxvt.keysym.M-c: perl:clipboard:copy* *URxvt.keysym.M-v: perl:clipboard:paste*
why is it a flaw? i mean yes, to the extent where a malicious app could read the clipboard with important information in it like a password, but if you have a malicious app running, wouldn't you be compromised in any sorts of ways already?
also what's the difference in security between primary and clipboard. From the arch wiki: ``The ICCCM standard defines three "selections": PRIMARY, SECONDARY, and CLIPBOARD. Despite the naming, all three are basically "clipboards".`` Since all three are shared among all processes they should all be subject to the same security flaws. Am i missing something?
I don't really use graphics in my terminals. The important criteria for me is, how well does the terminal handle text editing in editors like "micro" and can I copy-paste text into the terminal without weird things happening. How well does it manage windows? I have a window tiler, but I like splitting windows, such as with terminator or terminology. But everything I try seems to have annoying glitches here and there. Seems like Terminator is my favorite at the moment.
The only reason I stick with "termite" it's because URXVT can't handle glyphs (like these one: github.com/gabrielelana/awesome-terminal-fonts). Some oh-my-zsh plugins (the git plugin, for example) works visually better with those glyphs. My workaround to have these vim-like functionalities within the terminal is to spawn everything under tmux. Tmux has a "vi mode", so I can select and yank on any program as well.
Agreed. I use 'Even better LS' to show 'icons' next to different file types/dirs etc, and i tried for hours to get glyphs to work in URXVT. Seems there is no way to do it. the minute URXVT can work with glyphs like Awesome fonts/Nerd Fonts etc, I'm converted. Until then, Terminator is doing a good job for me ( yes, i know it's hardly lightweight ).
This is going to sound lame af (especially since you've already said before that you don't like computers), but have you considered doing online courses? You're really good at explaining stuff like this and I think there's a solid opportunity to benefit from that financially.
I think your workflow is cool but you could do better with Emacs + Evil Mode. For instance you could detach your cursor from the prompt line and open any URL as you do in this video. Just look for what Emacs can do.
In general I love urxvt, however it has all kinds of trouble with wide characters/glyphs, is very confusing to specify lists of fonts, and also there is no emoji support.
So you came back to qutebrowser again? What was wrong with firefox? Have you tried chromium with cvim extension? I tried using qutebrowser, but I had problems with youtube, because I could not use youtube shortcuts that I use extensively (j, k, l, f). Cvim lets the user to change bindings depending on site you're on and the config file can be synced easily between machines with gist.
Also an i3, Ranger and urxvt user until recently :D Changing the last element of the equation because of few annoyances. Custom keyboard shortcuts that work for others refuse to work for me, "clear" command doesn't properly clear the window (urxvt keeps the history which it's eager to bring back), scrollbar on the right remembers its size made from first catalog visited and then stays like that forever, text formatting while resizing window sometimes adjusts properly, sometimes not at all. Geometry is messed up too - alternative units are too broad for precise positioning and urxvt is the only app that I use that trolls when asked by wmctrl to resize to a specified geometry. All other apps take proper geometry at first order, urxvt for some reason positions at a slightly altered place and takes a second execution of the same command to position properly. Interesting that people praise it for being stable and bug-free, my experience is the exact opposite of that. Will probably try something fresh now like Tilix, or Upterm, both look promising on paper.
Any thoughts on using tmux alongside terminal. I generally use tmux copy mode over the terminal copy paste functionality, not sure if there are advantages I am missing
Educational video, thanks for sharing. Can you preview markdown in a right side pane similar to how you previewed images on the side when you selected on the left?
Hey great video! I have been slowly moving everything to Void with i3 today and was deciding which terminal to use. You were my go to and it was great seeing this video! Question though, what do you think about terminator? That is what I’ve been using? Anyway great video!
My urxvt config is not saving after restarting I tried xdefaults as well as xresourses also added in xinitrc file to merge ~/. defaults and xresourses Also tried in i3 config file exec xrdb ~/. Xdefaults and also tried xresourses I don't know what's wrong I am new in arch Linux I love your configuration please Help !!
Nice intro, thank you! Any idea why the position of the window (URxvt.geometry: 160x25+30-50) is ignored when tabs are activated (URxvt.perl-ext-common: tabbed) ?
Hey Luke, how do you get your windows, such as the terminal, to have no action bar at the top of it, basically just a square. Also, how did you install urxvt and set it as your terminal?
It's not that urxvt needs Compton on i3. And it's not that in some other WM/DE urxvt can handle transparency by itself. No matter what WM/DE, in order to do transparency, urxvt will always need the help of a compositor. If you're using a DE, your DE might run its own compositor. If you're using wayland, your WM/DE is a compositor in itself. Compton is a compositor, xcompmgr is a compositor, compiz is a compositor and window manager, etc.
You mentioned that one needs to run compton for transparency if you're using i3wm, but in my case I don't use compton and I have transparency in i3. I am completely new to urxvt though, but came to it because I wanted transparency and a lean terminal app (without tabs) since I use tmux heavily. My problem now is that I can't figure out how to unbind the default keys, such as Ctrl-Alt-Shift which interferes with one of my tmux bindings and it's driving me nuts. Any help on how to do that would be greatly appreciated. =) As a finishing note, I am new to your videos but some of them are absolute gems. Thank you!
Cool video I use Xresources on i3 but I would still like to know how you made the username@hostname part of your terminal look like a rainbow when you did the Arch install videos.
Hi , I recently started using urxvt , I am facing lot of difficulty in getting the unicode working. Every now and then I discover some characted is not visible on the terminal. The monospace font you are using I tried that but that makes the font spacing very large, Is there any other settings you are using for fonts, any specific font config you would like to share? Also are you able to see the font awesome visible on Terminal? I already tried the patch available for gentoo github.com/blueyed/rxvt-unicode/pull/1 => gentoo version github.com/kajzersoze/rxvt-unicode
Oh no! Luke! .Xresources ling is broke! Setting up pywal today. I'll see if I can figure it out, but FYI on the link anyway. By the way, does SXIV do ranger previews as well?
i also use urxvt, but when i ssh into a server and use nano i get an error: "error opening terminal,: rxvt-unicode-256color." Xterm and UXterm work fine in this scenario :/
Hmm, you might need to install urxvt on the server as well, sounds like the server is missing the terminfo for urxvt Or you could try running "export TERM=xterm-256color" before running nano, that might just work
How he can load a new .Xdefault when he run a new urxvt? For .Xresources, I should manually load by `xrdb .Xresource` but in the video, it seems like the configuration file is loaded automatically.
Not sure you need matcher anymore.. Seems like url-select and keyboard-select has the same functions now. I quoted out all my matcher lines and things still work fine. I have experienced links that doesn't work. I think it's makes problems if there is a linebreak in it.. Someone pls check the first link in "man libinput" and confirm, so I know it is not just something wrong in my settings..
I like to think that in some third world country the internet died a year ago and people are living in a strange alternate timeline where Arch, I3, URXTV, and Ranger are all still the best
Thanks for more great vids, Luke! Can I request one about vim plugin handlers? I kind of have trouble getting vundle to work with the code in my vimrc. Thanks!
what make me don't use this awesome terminal is support arabic lang (right to left) over vim, it make problem that konsole don't make. another thing is tabs actully I hate konsole but !!
Ahmed Khaled check this out, I haven't tried it but it looks like there's an extension to enable right -to-left fonts. If you try it let me know how it goes. wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Rxvt-unicode/Tips_and_tricks#Bidirectional_support
I gave up on urxvt. I guess I will have to give it another look. Could really use that copy/paste functionality. Perhaps this is why a very similar (probably the same) implementation does not work for me in tmux (because my current terminal doesn't support it). Can't believe you don't use tmux Luke. Next to vim, it's the most useful tool I can think of. It is awesome.
Thanks my dude. Just started out with i3 and having a blast. Discovered your videos and they're a huge help

How does he fluently split and open new terminal windows?
Tilling Window Managers.
@@gaurangshukla8235 thank you
@@krzysztofjuszczak906 you can watch i3wm guide from codecast to get started
I can't find the "URXVT" package.
It's rxvt-unicode in most repos.
Thanks for more great vids, Luke! Can I request one about vim plugin handlers? I kind of have trouble getting vundle to work with the code in my vimrc. Thanks!
Have you heard of Kitty? Uxrvt doesn't support ligature fonts like fira code. ☹️
I guess you're using a CLI file manager. Can you tell me what application are you using? (I'm really new to CLI file managers :) )
jonas Thanks a lot. I saw him mention the file manager in one of his videos
A tutorial on how to have colored emoji (with ttf-joypixels or ttf-noto-emoji) would be very appreciated.
I don't see why this is better, yakuake provide all of these. All these could be set by GUI without any pain.
Thanks for showing how to change the font. Now my urxvt doesn't look like complete ass.
Looks like more effort than it's worth. I'll stick with bash, thanks.
bash is a shell, not a terminal?
I copied your config for .xdefaults and now my terminal wont start up :(.
what make me don't use this awesome terminal is support arabic lang (right to left) over vim, it make problem that konsole don't make.
another thing is tabs
actully I hate konsole but !!
Ahmed Khaled check this out, I haven't tried it but it looks like there's an extension to enable right -to-left fonts. If you try it let me know how it goes.

yeah I found it before but the package is out of data in AUR and I don't know where to find it
But thank you about your replay,
about tabs I found an extension called tabbed and it awesome
I gave up on urxvt. I guess I will have to give it another look. Could really use that copy/paste functionality. Perhaps this is why a very similar (probably the same) implementation does not work for me in tmux (because my current terminal doesn't support it).
Can't believe you don't use tmux Luke. Next to vim, it's the most useful tool I can think of. It is awesome.
Tmux is for people who dont have tiling WMs :P
He uses it, you can see it pop up on some videos in which he shows the scratchpad.
Great video! Subbed!
Ever tried sakura terminal?
Is that lemonbar on top?
I believe it's polybar.
Mate is that a psa image of ted Kaczynski in the bottom left of the screen?
Luke is the una boomer.
where are your configs
Luke Smith: how do you acess network shares in ranger? maybe i need to add my samba share in fstab first?
Most likely. Or just make sure it's mounted first.
Really wished it natively supports Wayland
url has 404 error ?
10:42 lmao
Alacritty?
What is this file explorer system ? Also what is the way to get splited urxvt windows like this ? Thanks !
