(solved) urxvt clickable urls doesn't work following wiki

Trindol · 2010-07-12 23:33:52

My ~/.Xdefaults:

URxvt.buffered:         true
URxvt.background:       black
URxvt.foreground:       green
URxvt.scrollBar:        off
URxvt.geometry:         100x24
URxvt.transparent:      true
URxvt.shading:          35
URxvt.perl-ext:         default,matcher
URXvt.urlLauncher:      /usr/bin/midori
URxvt.matcher.button:   1

I have tried several variations according to different sources online but none of them work. Links are underlined, so it is partly working but clicking does nothing. Tried perl-ext and perl-ext-common. I have tried changing matcher.button to other numbers. Perl is installed. Only difference from most examples is midori instead of firefox.

URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,matcher
URxvt.urlLauncher: firefox
URxvt.matcher.button: 1

It also works with /'usr/bin/firefox', '/usr/bin/jumanji'.

Run 'xrdb -load ~/.Xdefaults' to update and open a new terminal or even restart X to be sure.

no go. I've been at this quite awhile so restarting/reloading files isn't the issue.

karol · 2010-07-13 00:13:27

I use http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=34455 and http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=9779 but I'm not sure if it makes a difference.

Inxsible · 2010-07-13 00:14:32

works fine here with firefox and jumanji, but i do use the full paths.

After you change your .Xdefaults, can you start a new terminal and try in that? Maybe an existing terminal is not picking up the changes. Alternatively, if you have another browser see if that works. If so, then midori might be at fault here (though I can't see how)

I use the standard urxvt from the extra repo. So I guess it wouldn't matter.

jmad980 · 2010-07-13 04:07:34

Have you tried any other browsers with it?
Midori has been a little finicky from the command line for me in the past, it may be a issue with midori

karol · 2010-07-13 04:14:45

I've just installed midori and it runs OK.

!URxvt.urlLauncher: firefox
URxvt.urlLauncher: midori

Does it work for you w/ firefox?

In that case it doesn't look like a problem with midori, you could try disabling some things in your .Xdefaults (process of elimination) don't really see any problems however.

Edit: worked with Firefox over here using

URxvt.perl-ext-common:  default,matcher,tabbed,clipboard
URxvt.urlLauncher:      /usr/bin/firefox
URxvt.matcher.button:   1

note that I have a few other things hence ,tabbed,clipboard

'URxvt.matcher.button: 1' means LMB. If you click the link it should just work.
I think you should start w/ a minimal .Xdefaults that work and add back all the other stuff that you need there. Maybe you have a conflict of settings of some sort.

Trindol · 2010-07-13 11:01:48

Removed all lines from my .Xdefault except the three in question, still didn't work. Tried firefox, uzbl, links, still nothing. I am reloading X each time. Reinstalled urxvt, perl, xorg-xauth. Mysterious.

Don't know if this would help, but here is my xdefaults. You might wanna try it out and see if it works.

Try
!urxvt*font: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:size=10

!urxvt*fading: 50
!urxvt*fadeColor: #000000

instead of (look at the first character):

#urxvt*font: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:size=10

#urxvt*fading: 50
#urxvt*fadeColor: #000000

I don't get it. It works for me. The lines I have commented, I intend to comment.

Use "!" commenting out.

Alright, this is a bit ridiculous. I switched to Inxsible's posted .Xdefaults, and it worked (with midori). Then I changed back to my old one as originally posted and it still worked! Even after reloading X. Solved? Uhh...

I think I see what the problem is. your /usr/bin/midori line has a upper case X in URXvt. It is supposed to be lower case

so I guess when you copied back your .Xdefaults you didn't restart the terminal? or you copied it correctly with a lower case x.

EDIT: Don't know if it makes any difference. I just noticed that I have a mixed case urxvt in some settings and others I am using URxvt.

You got it. Man what a headache.

URxvt = ok
urxvt = ok

anything else, no go.

IIRC correctly it has sth do to w/ a class or sth. If you dive into the docs you'll probably find it.

> I think I see what the problem is.
I could swear this was the first thing I've checked! Well, thanks to Linus' Law one blind guy won't f*ck it all.
I've changed the case in my config and it stopped working.

> Then I changed back to my old one as originally posted
Can you post it?

Yeah the $WINDOW_CLASS and the $WINDOW_NAME, which takes on the application name. Those variables define what the title bar will contain for a particular app. So I guess urxvt and URxvt are ok.
