rxvt-unicode 9.0 (Default branch)
Image rxvt-unicode is a clone of the well known terminal emulator rxvt, modified to store text in Unicode and to use locale-correct input and output. It also supports mixing multiple fonts at the same time, including Xft fonts, real transparency, and an optional embedded Perl interpreter that allows you to extend your terminal easily. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
Calling urxvtc with illegal arguments will no longer crash urxvtd. Xft font drawing has been rewritten to be faster and more correct again (fixing the compose character corruption). The xterm bracketed paste mode extension has been implemented. The RENDER server extension is no longer required for transparency and background pixmaps. The documentation concerning alpha channels in colours has been improved, the "urxvt stays black until the first event arrives" bug has been fixed, and a number of minor cleanups and bugfixes have been implemented.Image

UNICODE(1)                                                    General Commands Manual                                                   UNICODE(1)

NAME

       unicode - command line unicode database query tool

SYNOPSIS

       unicode [options] string

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents the unicode command.

       unicode is a command line unicode database query tool.

OPTIONS

       -h     --help

              Show help and exit.

       -x     --hexadecimal

              Assume string to be a hexadecimal number

       -d     --decimal

              Assume string to be a decimal number

       -r     --regexp

              Assume string to be a regular expression

       -s     --string

              Assume string to be a sequence of characters

       -a     --auto

              Try to guess type of string from one of the above (default)

       -mMAXCOUNT
              --max=MAXCOUNT

              Maximal number of codepoints to display, default: 20; use 0 for unlimited

       -iCHARSET
              --io=IOCHARSET

              I/O  character  set. For maximal pleasure, run unicode on UTF-8 capable terminal and specify IOCHARSET to be UTF-8. unicode tries to
              guess this value from your locale, so with properly set up locale, you should not need to specify it.

       -cADDCHARSET
              --charset-add=ADDCHARSET

              Show hexadecimal reprezentation of displayed characters in this additional charset.

       -CUSE_COLOUR
              --colour=USE_COLOUR

              USE_COLOUR is one of on off auto

              --colour=on will use ANSI colour codes to colourise the output

              --colour=off won't use colours.

              --colour=auto will test if standard output is a tty, and use colours only when it is.

              --color is a synonym of --colour

       -v     --verbose

              Be more verbose about displayed characters, e.g. display Unihan information, if available.

       -w     --wikipedia

              Spawn browser pointing to Wikipedia entry about the character.

USAGE

       unicode tries to guess the type of an argument. For example, you can use any of the following to display  information  about  U+00E1  LATIN
       SMALL LETTER A WITH ACUTE (a):

       unicode 00E1

       unicode U+00E1

       unicode a

       unicode 'latin small letter a with acute'

       You  can  specify  a range of characters as argumets, unicode will show these characters in nice tabular format, aligned to 256-byte bound-
       aries.  Use two dots ".." to indicate the range, e.g.

       unicode 0450..0520

       will display the whole cyrillic and hebrew blocks (characters from U+0400 to U+05FF)

       unicode 0400..

       will display just characters from U+0400 up to U+04FF

BUGS

       Tabular format does not deal well with full-width, combining, control and RTL characters.
