NAME

       mlterm - Multi Lingual TERMinal emulator on X

SYNOPSIS

       mlterm [options]

DESCRIPTION

       mlterm  is  a multi-lingual terminal emulator written from scratch, which supports various
       character sets and encodings in the world and complex characters such as double width  for
       East  Asian,  combining  for  Thai, Vietnamese, and so on, and bi-direction for Arabic and
       Hebrew.  Indic scripts are experimentally supported.   It  also  supports  various  unique
       feature  such as anti-alias using FreeType, multiple XIM, multiple windows, scrollbar API,
       scroll by mouse wheel, automatic selection of encoding, daemon mode, and so on.

       Supported encodings are: ISO-8859-[1-11], ISO-8859-[13-16], TIS-620 (same as ISO-8859-11),
       KOI8-R,   KOI8-U,   KOI8-T,   GEORGIAN-PS,   TCVN5712,   ISCII_(ASSAMESE|BENGALI|GUJARATI|
       HINDI|KANNADA|MALAYALAM|ORIYA|PUNJABI|ROMAN|TAMIL|TELUGU), VISCII, CP125[0-8], CP874, EUC-
       JP,   EUC-JISX0213,  Shift_JIS,  Shift_JISX0213,  ISO-2022-JP[1-3],  EUC-KR,  UHC,  JOHAB,
       ISO-2022-KR, GB2312 (EUC-CN), GBK, GB18030, ISO-2022-CN, HZ, EUC-TW, BIG5, BIG5HKSCS,  and
       UTF-8.   If  you  have  already  set  locale (for example LANG variable; see locale(7) for
       detail) mlterm will automatically select proper encoding.

OPTIONS

       Note that bool is to be substituted by true or false.

       -A, --aa(=bool)
              Use anti-aliased fonts. This option works only with Xft  or  cairo  for  now.   The
              default is true.

       -B, --sbbg=color
              Specify a background color of a scrollbar.  A valid value for color is a color name
              or a  RGB  value.   The  color  name  should  be  defined  in  rgb.txt  or  "color"
              configuration  file.   The  RGB  value's  format  should be "#RRGGBB", "#RRGGBBAA",
              "rgb:RR/GG/BB" or "rgba:RR/GG/BB/AA".

       -C, --ctl(=bool)
              Enable complex text layouting on UTF8 encoding to support  indic  scripts  and  RTL
              (right-to-let) languages such as Arabic and Hebrew.  The default is true.

       -E, --km=encoding
              Specify  encoding.  Valid encodings are listed in DESCRIPTION section above in this
              man page.  AUTO makes mlterm determine  the  according  according  to  the  current
              locale (default AUTO).

       -F, --sbfg=color
              Specify a foreground color of a scrollbar.  See --sbbg option for valid values.

       -G, --vertical=mode
              Specify  vertical  writing  mode.   cjk for RTL vertical writing and mongol for LTR
              one.  The default is none which means horizontal writing mode.

       -H, --bright=value
              Brightness of  background  images  in  percent.   See  -p  option  for  details  of
              background images.  The default is 100 (keep original).

       -I, --icon=name
              Specify  a  name  to  be  used  when  a mlterm window is iconified.  The default is
              "mlterm".

       -J, --dyncomb(=bool)
              Enable dynamic character combining.  "Dynamic" means that combining characters  are
              stored  in  without  combining  but  they  are displayed using combined form.  This
              affects calculation of  column  position,  i.e.,  a  pair  of  base  character  and
              combining  character is counted to be two columns in this mode, while it is counted
              to be one column in the normal mode.  Under this option, a (logical) column  number
              and  a  character one-to-one correspondence.  even for combining characters (though
              not for fullwidth characters; see -Z/--multicol option for  handling  of  fullwidth
              characters).  Thus, this mode enables you to use combining characters with software
              which does not support combining characters.  The default is false.

       -K, --metakey=value
              Specify a key to be interpreted as a META key.  Valid values are: alt, meta, hyper,
              super, mod1, mod2, mod3, mod4, and none.   The default is none.

              See -k option also.

       -L, --ls(=bool)
              Whether to use login shell or not.  The default is false.

       -M, --im= input method : [ arguments ... ]

              Examples:

              --im=xim
                     Use  XIM  with  the  default  XIM  server  specified  by standard way (i.e.,
                     XMODIFIERS environmental variable).

              --im=xim:Ami
                     Use XIM with Ami on the system locale.

              --im=xim:kinput2:ja_JP.EUC-JP

       -O, --sbmod=value
              Specify the side to show a scrollbar.  left for left side and right for right side.
              The default is none which turns off scrollbar.

       -P, --clip(=bool)
              Whether to enable CLIPBOARD (not only PRIMARY) selection.  The default is true.

       -Q, --vcur(=bool)
              Change  interpretation of cursor keys to be natural in vertical writing mode.  This
              means that up and down arrow keys are treated as backward (left arrow in horizontal
              LTR)   and   forward  (right  arrow  in  horizontal  LTR),  respectively.   In  cjk
              -G/--vertical mode, left and right arrow keys are also treated as next  line  (down
              arrow  in  horizontal  LTR)  and  previous  line  (up  arrow  in  horizontal  LTR),
              respectively, while vice versa in mongol mode.  The default is false.

       -R, --fsrange=range
              Set acceptable range of font size.  The format is "minsize-maxsize", where  minsize
              and maxsize are font sizes in pixel (default 6-30).  The GUI configurator and other
              means for setting fontsize should honor the range.

       -S, --sbview=name
              Select a type of scrollbar.  See SCROLLBAR section below for details.  The  default
              is "simple" which means the built-in simple scrollbar.

       -T, --title=name
              Specify a title for a mlterm window.  The default is "mlterm".

       -U, --viaucs(=bool)
              Force  to  convert  a  selection  (i.e.,  copy-and-paste strings) whose type is not
              UTF8_STRING to the current mlterm encoding  via  Unicode.   See  SELECTION  section
              below for detail.  The default is false.

       -V, --varwidth(=bool)
              Use  variable  column  width.   You  may  want  to  use  this  option  when you use
              proportional fonts.  The default is false.

       -W, --sep=characterlist
              Delimiter characters used for word selection, which are consulted when you  double-
              clicked mlterm, to define what is a word.  The default is " ,.:;/|@()[]{}")

       -X, --alpha=value
              Alpha in pseudo or true transparent.  The default is 255.

       -Y, --decsp(=bool)
              Use dynamically composed line drawing character set of DEC special.  The default is
              false.  This overrides DEC_SPECIAL in "font" configuration file, while  DEC_SPECIAL
              in "aafont" (for Xft or cairo) is always overridden.

       -Z, --multicol(=bool)
              Treat fullwidth characters (east Asian characters in most cases; which occupies two
              columns on the screen) as they occupy two logical  columns.   It  is  the  de-facto
              standard  way  to  handle  fullwidth  characters  in  east Asian terminal emulators
              (XFree86 xterm and  kterm, cxterm, hanterm, rxvt, eterm) and other systems such  as
              MS-DOS,  PC-9801, and so on.  In most fonts, the glyphs of fullwidth characters are
              designed assuming that their width are twice of normal characters and won't display
              correctly without this option.  The default is true.

       -0, --crbg=color
              Specify  background  color for cursor (default is same to foreground color).  Valid
              values for color are color names defined in rgb.txt  and  color  rgb  string  whose
              format is "#RRGGBB", "#RRGGBBAA", "rgb:RR/GG/BB" or "rgba:RR/GG/BB/AA".

       -1, --wscr=value
              Specify  actual window width, by percentage against calculated value by multiplying
              font width by column number.  This is useful when you use a proportional font which
              includes  some  glyphs  with  exceptionally large width, i.e., much larger "maximum
              width" than your expectation.  The default is 100.

       -2, --hscr=value
              Specify actual screen height, like -1/--wscr does for width.  The default is 100.

       -3, --contrast=value)
              Contrast of background image in percent.  See -p option for details  of  background
              image.  The default is 100.

       -4, --gamma=value)
              Gamma  of  background  image  in  percent.  See -p option for details of background
              image.  The default is 100.

       -5, --big5bug(=bool)
              Enable a workaround for Big5 CTEXT bugs  (which  had  been  existed  until  XFree86
              4.1.0).    This   affects   Big5   selections  (i.e.,  copy-and-paste  strings)  in
              COMPOUND_TEXT format which mlterm sends.  The default is false.

       -6, --stbs(=bool)
              Don't exit backscroll mode when console applications output something.  The default
              is false.

       -7, --bel=mode
              Behavior  when  BEL (0x07) is received. sound for beep , visual for blanking screen
              and sound|visual for the both.  The default is none which ignores BEL.

       -8, --88591(=bool)
              Use ISO8859-1 fonts for US-ASCII part of various encodings.

       -9, --crfg=color
              Specify foreground color for cursor (default is same to background  color).   Valid
              values  for  color  are  color  names defined in rgb.txt and color rgb string whose
              format is "#RRGGBB", "#RRGGBBAA", "rgb:RR/GG/BB" or "rgba:RR/GG/BB/AA".

       -$, --mc=value
              Doubleclick/tripleclick interval in millisecond.  The default is 250.

       -%, --logseq(=bool)
              Enable logging. Contents  of  stream  received  by  mlterm  will  be  logged  under
              ~/.mlterm/.  This option is mainly intended to be used for debugging purposes.  The
              default is false.  Note that % should be escaped to be supplied as a  command  line
              option on most shells.

       -&, --borderless(=bool)
              Asks the window manager to use no decorations at all. Warning: You will not be able
              to resize the window. You probably want to use --geometry as well.  The default  is
              false.

       -@, --screens=value
              Specify  number  of  screens  (sessions) to be used in start up.  The default is 1.
              Note that when one of these screens are closed, sessions which  were  connected  to
              the screens do not immediately killed.

              See MULTIPLE PTY section for details.

       -*, --type=value
              Specify  the  rendering engine to be used to draw fonts.  xcore is conventional X11
              core font mechanism.  xft means Xft mechanism and cairo means cairo mechanism.  The
              default is xft.

       -#, --initstr=value
              Specify  a  string  to  be automatically sent after initialization of session.  The
              value normally will be  parsed  by  a  shell.   See  -e  option  to  execute  other
              application at start-up time.

       -a, --ac=value
              Specify  number  of  columns  to  be  occupied  by a Unicode's "EastAsianAmbiguous"
              character.  The default is 1 except "ja" locale where the default  is  2.  Some  of
              asian  people  may  want  to  specify 2.  See Unicode Standard Annex (UAX) #11 East
              Asian Width found at Unicode web site for details.

       -b, --bg=color
              Specify background color (default white).  Valid values for color are  color  names
              defined  in  rgb.txt  and  color rgb string whose format is "#RRGGBB", "#RRGGBBAA",
              "rgb:RR/GG/BB" or "rgba:RR/GG/BB/AA".

       -c, --cp932(=bool)
              Use CP932 mapping table to convert from JIS X 0208 to Unicode when displaying JIS X
              0208  characters  using Unicode font in Xft or cairo mode.  This is useful when you
              use proprietary Japanese true type  fonts  which  are  intended  to  be  used  with
              Microsoft   Windows,  with  mlterm  with  encodings  (such  as  EUC-JP,  Shift_JIS,
              ISO-2022-JP, and so on) which contain JIS X 0208 as a coded character set.

              The reason is, such proprietary fonts may have glyphs only for Unicode code  points
              into  which JIS X 0208 code points are converted using CP932 mapping table.  (CP932
              is a name of mapping table which is used by Microsoft  to  convert  from  Shift_JIS
              [plus  Microsoft  private extended characters] into Unicode.  In Unicode's point of
              view, CP932 is a name of encoding which is similar to  Shift_JIS  and  is  used  by
              Japanese  version  of Microsoft Windows.)  If you use such fonts for encodings such
              as EUC-JP and Shift_JIS with JIS0208.TXT mapping table which mlterm adopts  as  the
              standard,  a  few  characters  are  mapped into Unicode code points where the fonts
              don't have glyphs.

              Both  of  CP932.TXT  and  JIS0208.TXT  mapping  tables  are  supplied  by   Unicode
              Consortium, though they are regarded to be obsolete.

              The default is true.

       -d, --display=string
              Specify X display to connect with.

       -e program [ arguments ... ]
              Invoke  the  command  in the mlterm window.  This option must be the last option on
              the command line.

       -f, --fg=color
              Foreground color (default black).  Valid values for color are color  names  defined
              in   rgb.txt   and  color  rgb  string  whose  format  is  "#RRGGBB",  "#RRGGBBAA",
              "rgb:RR/GG/BB" or "rgba:RR/GG/BB/AA".

       -g, --geometry=geometry
              Specify size and position of the window; see X(7).

       -h, --help(=bool)
              Show help messages.

       -i, --xim(=bool)
              Whether to use XIM (X Input Method).  Most east Asian people will  want  to  enable
              this  option.  Other people can also safely enable this.  The default is true.  The
              name of the XIM server  to  be  connected  is  specified  by  standard  way  (i.e.,
              XMODIFIERS environmental variable).

       -j, --daemon=value
              Start  as  a daemon process. Note that mlclient is executed if a daemon process has
              already started.  Possible =values are "blend" and "genuine".  See the  chapter  of
              DAEMON MODE for details.

       -k, --meta=mode
              Behavior  of  META  key.   esc for sending ESC and none for ignoring META key.  The
              default is 8bit which sets the most significant bit.

              See -K option also.

       -l, --sl=value
              Specify number of lines of backlog or "unlimited". The default is 128.

       -m, --comb(=bool)
              Enable combining  characters  by  overstriking  glyphs  (recommended  for  TIS-620,
              TCVN5712,  and  UTF-8).   Note  that fonts which contain combining characters which
              extend backward cannot be used, since mlterm does combine characters by controlling
              the writing positions.  This option is automatically turned on when using --dyncomb
              option.  The default is true.

       -n, --noucsfont(=bool)
              Use non-Unicode fonts even when mlterm encoding is UTF-8.  Useful  when  you  don't
              have ISO10646-1 fonts and you want to use UTF-8 encoding.  The default is false.

       -o, --lsp(=value)
              Specify number of extra pixels between lines.  The default is 0.

       -p, --pic=path
              Path  for  a  wallpaper (background) image.  Note that the wallpaper cannot be used
              with pseudo transparent background.

       -q, --extkey(=bool)
              Enable extended keys for backscroll mode.  The default is false.   Extended  scroll
              keys  are  SCROLL_UP,  up  arrow,  and  "k"  (for  scrolling one line backward) and
              SCROLL_DOWN, down arrow, and "j" (for scrolling one  line  forward).   Please  note
              that  concrete  keys  for symbols of SCROLL_UP and SCROLL_DOWN are specified in key
              configuration file.  Only keys of PAGE_UP and PAGE_DOWN (which are specified in key
              configuration file) are available by default.

       -r, --fade=ratio
              Specify  fading  ratio  for  unfocused  windows.   100  means no fading and 0 means
              darkest.  The default is 100

       -s, --mdi(=bool)
              Whether to use multiple document interface.  The default is true.  If  you  disable
              this option, scrollbar and screen separation are unavailable.

       -t, --transbg(=bool)
              Whether  to  enable  pseudo  transparent  background.  Note that pseudo transparent
              background cannot be used with wallpaper.  The default is false.

       -u, --onlyucsfont(=bool)
              Use Unicode fonts even when mlterm encoding is not UTF-8.   Useful  when  you  have
              ISO10646  fonts but you don't have other fonts and want to use non-UTF-8 encodings.
              Note that conversion to Unicode is lossy.  i.e. if mlterm encoding is not a  subset
              of  Unicode  like  ISO-2022-JP-2 or EUC-TW, characters which are regarded as a same
              character in  Unicode  will  be  displayed  with  the  same  glyph  and  cannot  be
              distinguished.

              behavior  of  mlterm.   Since  mlterm  is  designed to generally behave like kterm,
              values which works for kterm may be used.  The default is xterm.

              To use full features of term, it's recommended to install the definition of  mlterm
              which distributed with source and choose "mlterm" as a value of TERM.

GUI CONFIGURATOR

       Pushing control key and mouse button 3 invokes GUI configurator (mlconfig).  It can modify
       encoding, foreground and background color, tab size, backlog size,  font  size,  usage  of
       combining character, and so on.

       GUI configurator has six pages (Encoding, Font, Background, Color, Scrollbar, and Others),
       OK/Apply/Cancel buttons, and four special buttons.

       Note this feature needs GTK+ 2.x or later.

   Encoding page
       Encoding-related configurations are located in this page.  Note that  configurations  will
       be enabled when you push Apply button.

              Option Specify the name of key mapping table. When using ISCII encoding, Indic  key
                     mapping   is   used   automatically.   In  other  encodings,  this  will  be
                     automatically selected according to the current locale.

              uim:

              Option Specify the name of the conversion engine to be used. If  you  choose  auto,
                     the  conversion  engine  will  be  automatically  selected  according to the
                     current locale.

              Note this feature needs uim library.

              m17n library:

              Option Specify the language and the input method to be used. If  you  choose  auto,
                     the  language  and  input method will be automatically selected according to
                     the current locale.

              Note this feature needs m17n library and m17n-db.

              One process of mlterm may have multiple sessions and screens.  The sessions may  or
              may  not  have  corresponding screen, i.e., the number of sessions can be more than
              the number of screens.  Such situation  can  be  achieved  by  closing  a  part  of
              multiple  screens  from -@/--screens option.  In such case, the screen-less session
              can be designated to one of screens by choosing the session (pty)  from  this  list
              and push "select" button.

CONFIGURABLE MENU

       Pushing  control key and mouse button 1 invokes configurable menu displayer (mlterm-menu).
       It displays a menu with items such as "Larger Font" or "UTF-8 encoding".  Though a default
       menu  definition  is  supplied,  you  can  freely  define  menu  items  by  writing a menu
       configuration file.  See Menu Configuration File section for detail.

       Note this feature needs GTK+ 2.x or later.

MULTIPLE XIM

       mlterm can use multiple XIM (X Input Method) servers.  The current XIM is specified by the
       GUI  configurator.   Using  this  feature you can input multiple complex languages such as
       Japanese and Korean.  Locale to be used for communication with XIM can also  be  specified
       for  each  XIM.  In the GUI configurator, you can choose one of registered pair of XIM and
       its locale or you can input your favorite XIM and its locale.

       The locale for XIM is only used for communication with the XIM and is not related  to  the
       current  mlterm  locale.  You have to properly configure the XIM locale only when your XIM
       has preference on  the  locale  of  XIM  client  (i.e.,  mlterm  in  this  case).   mlterm
       automatically  convert  the inputed string into proper encoding and you don't have to care
       about it.

       Of course the  initial  XIM  is  chosen  by  using  standard  configuration,  i.e.,  using
       XMODIFIERS environmental variable.  See X(7) for detail on XIM and XMODIFIERS variable.

DAEMON MODE

       When  invoked  with  -j/--daemon  command  line  option, mlterm starts to listen on a unix
       domain socket and accept requests from mlclient.

       With blend  mlterm will exit when the final terminal window is closed.  But with  genuine,
       mlterm  will  disconnect from X server windows and continues to work. In latter case, it's
       possible to stop and restart a X server and revive the lasting sessions on mlterm.

SCROLLBAR

       mlterm supports scrollbar API so that users can develop scrollbar libraries with arbitrary
       look  and  feel.   The  scrollbar  libraries  can  be used by putting the libraries at the
       specified directory (determined on the compilation process) and invoke mlterm with  -s  -S
       name   option.    Scrollbar   libraries  named  "sample",  "sample2",  "athena",  "motif",
       "mozmodern", and "next" are supplied.

ANTI-ALIAS

       mlterm can use True Type fonts using -A option via  FreeType  library  when  it  has  been
       compiled with anti-alias option.

       Note this feature needs XFree86 4.0.2 or above and FreeType 2.0.2 or above.

WALLPAPER

       mlterm  can  use  background image (as known as wallpaper), by using -p/--pic option.  You
       can also specify the brightness of the image by using -H/--bright option.

       Note this feature needs gdk-pixbuf.

MULTIPLE PTY

       This is one of most unique features of mlterm.  The number of  windows  can  be  specified
       using  -P option.  Typing control + F1 opens another window which shares the same process.
       The maximum number of windows can be specified using --maxptys option.

BACKSCROLL MODE

       mlterm enters into backscroll mode by typing Shift + up or Shift +  PageUp  key.   In  the
       mode, you can use the following keys.

       j or Down
              Scroll down one line.

       k or Up
              Scroll up one line.

       d or PageDown
              Scroll down one page.

       u or PageUp
              Scroll up one page.

       Shift + space
              Initialize XIM.

       Shift + Insert
              Insert selection.

       Control + F1
              Open a new pty window.

       keys defined in key configuration file
              PAGE_UP, PAGE_DOWN, SCROLL_UP, and SCROLL_DOWN keys are defined in the file.

       other keys
              Exit from the backscroll mode.

       Please  note  that  keys  other  than  PAGE_UP and PAGE_DOWN in key configuration file are
       available only when you used -q/--extkey command option.

SELECTION

       Selection is a mechanism to be used for copy-and-paste in X  Window  System.   Thus,  this
       section describes on so-called copy-and-paste.

       There  are  many  encodings in the world.  Though copy-and-paste needs sender and receiver
       and each of them can use one of various encodings,  mlterm  is  designed  to  be  able  to
       receive characters from various encodings as much as possible.

       There  are  two internationalized types of selection.  One is COMPOUND_TEXT is the another
       is UTF8_STRING.  COMPOUND_TEXT is ISO2022-based and can distinguish character sets which a
       character  belongs  to.   However,  the  character  sets  which COMPOUND_TEXT supports are
       limited to ISO8859-* and East Asian character sets.  On the  other  hand,  UTF8_STRING  is
       Unicode-based  and  can  express  all  characters from Unicode character set.  However, it
       cannot distinguish characters from different character sets which share one  codepoint  in
       Unicode,  which  can  be a problem especially for CJK Han Ideogram (in other words, Kanji,
       Hanji, or Hanja).  Note that UTF8_STRING is rather new and can be used only with XFree86.

       Though the receiver of copy-and-paste can request the preferable type  of  selection,  the
       sender  may not support the requested type.  Thus mlterm has to be able to process both of
       COMPOUND_TEXT and UTF8_STRING.

       On the other hand, encodings supported by mlterm (see DESCRIPTION section for detail)  are
       classified into four categories;

       (a) Unicode itself
              UTF-8.

       (b) subset of Unicode and ISO-2022-compliant
              "Subset  of  Unicode"  means that Unicode supports round-trip compatibility for the
              encoding, i.e., the conversion of the encoding --> Unicode --> the encoding doesn't
              lose any information.  "ISO-2022-compliant" means that the encoding can be regarded
              as a subset of ISO-2022 where a part of ISO-2022 control codes and escape sequences
              are  not  supported.   Many  popular  encodings  belong  to  this  category such as
              ISO-8859-*, EUC-*, ISO-2022-KR, TIS-620, TCVN5712, and so on.

       (c) subset of Unicode and non-ISO-2022-compliant
              Some of popular encodings such as Shift_JIS, Big5, GBK, GB18030, Johab, and  so  on
              belongs to this category.

       (d) not subset of Unicode
              ISO-2022-JP,  ISO-2022-JP-2,  ISO-2022-JP-3,  EUC-TW,  and  so on.  All of them are
              ISO-2022-compliant.

       Now the behavior of mlterm can be explained.

       -------------------------------------------------------
       encoding received selection  how to process?
       -------------------------------------------------------
          a     COMPOUND_TEXT       convert to Unicode
          a     UTF8_STRING         no need for conversion
          b     COMPOUND_TEXT       user preference *1
          b     UTF8_STRING         convert to the encoding *2
          c     COMPOUND_TEXT       user preference *1
          c     UTF8_STRING         convert to the encoding *2
          d     COMPOUND_TEXT       no need for conversion *3
          d     UTF8_STRING         convert to the encoding *2
       -------------------------------------------------------

       *1 Characters from unsupported character sets (i.e., characters which cannot be  expressed
       in  the mlterm encoding) may appear in the selection (received copy-and-paste string).  If
       you want to receive characters which are equivalent to characters which are  supported  in
       the  current mlterm encoding (i.e., characters which share the same codepoint in Unicode),
       you can use -U (or --viaucs) option.  Otherwise, these characters are pasted  into  mlterm
       using  ISO-2022  escape sequence (when mlterm encoding is category b).  Note such ISO-2022
       escape sequences are illegal in the current mlterm encoding and the  application  software
       will  need  special feature to treat them properly, though it is displayed well in mlterm.
       When mlterm encoding is category c, such characters are simply ignored (when -U option  is
       not enabled).

       *2 Characters which cannot be converted into mlterm encoding are simply ignored.

       *3  Characters  from  unsupported character sets will be pasted into mlterm using ISO-2022
       escape sequence.

CONFIGURATION

       mlterm loads configuration files of "main", "font", "vfont", "tfont", "aafont", "vaafont",
       "taafont", "color", "key", "termcap", and "xim" on start up.  "menu" configuration file is
       loaded by the configurable menu displayer (mlterm-menu).  See the section of  CONFIGURABLE
       MENU for detail.

       Configuration  files  for  one  user  are  to  be located in "~/.mlterm/" directory, while
       location for configuration  files  for  all  users  depends  on  the  compilation  option.
       Possible locations are "/etc/", "/etc/X11/", "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/mlterm/", and so on.

       The names and the roles of configuration files are:

       main   Main configuration items which can be overridden by command line options.

       font   Configurations for ordinary X fonts.

       vfont  Configurations for ordinary X fonts of variable column width.

       tfont  Configurations for ordinary X fonts of vertical writing.

       aafont Configurations for Xft or cairo fonts.

       vaafont
              Configurations for Xft or cairo fonts of variable column width.

       taafont
              Configurations for Xft or cairo fonts of vertical writing.

       color  Designate concrete RGB values for color names.

       key    Key definitions for special features of mlterm.

              Of course you can input XIM names and locales for the GUI  configurator  which  are
              not listed in this configuration file.

       menu   Define menu items which is displayed by configurable menu displayer.

       The  contents  of  these  configuration  files  (other  than  menu)  consist  of  lines of
       "key=value" format.  Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.

       Note that the configuration files are changed since version 1.9.44.

   Main Configuration File
       This file contains main configuration items  which  can  be  overridden  by  command  line
       options.  The main configuration file "main" has the following keys.  Parentheses show the

       U+XXXX-XXXX=fonts
              Specify fonts for corresponding character sets.  The format  is  different  between
              "font", "vfont" "tfont" files and "aafont", "vaafont" "taafont" files.

              In     "font",     "vfont",    "tfont"    files,    "font"    is    specified    in
              "NAME:PERCENT;SIZE,NAME:PERCENT;SIZE,NAME:PERCENT;..."  format where "SIZE" is font
              size  in  pixel, and "NAME" is XLFD or alias names of X fonts.  If the first "NAME"
              contains "%d", it is replaced by an appropriate font size  number.   ":PERCENT"  is
              multiplied  by  font  size and decides character width of a font.  If ":PERCENT" is
              omitted, max font width is used for it.

              In "aafont", "vaafont", "taafont" files, "font"  is  specified  in  "FAMILY  WEIGHT
              SLANT        SIZE-ENCODING:PERCENT;SIZE,FAMILY       WEIGHT       SLANT       SIZE-
              ENCODING:PERCENT;SIZE,FAMILY WEIGHT SLANT SIZE-ENCODING:PERCENT;..."  format.   The
              first  pair of FAMILY WEIGHT SLANT SIZE and ENCODING specifies the default font and
              the others with SIZE are for specific sizes.  ":PERCENT" is multiplied by font size
              and decides character width of a font.  If ":PERCENT" is omitted, 'W' width is used
              for it.

       charset_BOLD=fonts
              Specify boldface fonts.

       charset_ITALIC=fonts
              Specify italic fonts.

       charset_BOLD_ITALIC=fonts
              Specify bold-italic fonts.

   Color Configuration File
       The color configuration file "color" has the following key.

       COLORNAME=RGB
              Assign a concrete color for the name COLORNAME.  Default colors used by mlterm  are
              black,  red,  green, yellow, blue, magenta, cyan, and white.  and can be overridden
              here.

              For hilighted colors, a name with "hl_"  prefix  will  be  automatically  searched.
              i.e. for bold read character, "hl_red" is searched instead of "red".

              17 - 230 and 232 - 255 in 256 colors can be also overridden.

              The  format  of  RGB  is  either  "RRRR-GGGG-BBBB"  (where RRRR, GGGG, and BBBB are
              hexadecimal value from  0  to  ffff),  "#RRGGBB",  "#RRGGBBAA",  "rgb:RR/GG/BB"  or
              "rgba:RR/GG/BB/AA"(where RR, GG, and BB are hexadecimal value from 00 to ff).

              If mlterm failed to parse a entry, the color will be regarded as black.

   XIM Configuration File
       The X Input Methods configuration file "xim" has the following format

       XIM=locale

       where  XIM  is  XIM  name  and  locale  is locale name used for communication with the XIM
       server.  For example,
       kinput2=ja_JP.eucJP
       Ami=ko_KR.eucKR
       xcin-zh_CN.GB2312=zh_CN.GB2312
       These settings are used to create list of XIMs by the  GUI  configurator.   Though  a  XIM
       which  is  not  listed in this file can't be selected from the list, it can be selected by
       specifying its name directly.

   Feature Key Configuration File
       The feature key configuration file "key" has the following format.

       KEY=FEATURE

       Here, the format for KEY is "(MASK+)KEY", where MASK is one of Control, Shift, Mod1, Mod2,
       Mod3,  Mod4,  Mod5,  Mod  and  Alt.   You  can  specify multiple "MASK+"s.  You can search
       spellings  of  KEY  by  using   xev(1)   command   or   searching   keysym   macros   from
       /usr/X11R6/include/X11/keysymdefs.h (or the equivalent file in your X11 include directory)
       and omit the prefix XK_.  Double quotation marks are not needed.  You can specify Button1,
       Button2, Button3, Button4 or Button5 as KEY.

       FEATURE  is one of IM_HOTKEY, EXT_KBD, OPEN_SCREEN, NEW_PTY, OPEN_PTY, NEXT_PTY, PREV_PTY,
       VSPLIT_SCREEN,  HSPLIT_SCREEN,  CLOSE_SCREEN,  NEXT_SCREEN,  PREV_SCREEN,  HEXPAND_SCREEN,
       VEXPAND_SCREEN, PAGE_UP, PAGE_DOWN, SCROLL_UP, SCROLL_DOWN, INSERT_SELECTION, "STRING", or
       "proto:STRING".

       IM_HOTKEY
              Switch conversion mode of m17n library and kdb input methods. (default UNUSED)

       EXT_KBD
              Activate or deactivate kbd input method.  (This feature was obsoleted by IM_HOTKEY)

       OPEN_SCREEN
              Open new pty in new screen (default Ctrl+F1).

       NEW_PTY
              Same as OPEN_SCREEN (obsoleted).

       OPEN_PTY
              Open new pty in current screen (default Ctrl+F2).

       NEXT_PTY
              Switch to a next free pty (default Ctrl+F3).

       PREV_PTY
              Switch to a previous free pty (default Ctrl+F4).

       HSPLIT_SCREEN
              Open new pty in horizontally splitted screen (default Shift+F1).

       VSPLIT_SCREEN
              Open new pty in vertically splitted screen (default Shift+F2).

       NEXT_SCREEN
              Switch to a next unfocused screen (default Shift+F3).

       PREV_SCREEN
              Switch to a previous unfocused screen (default Shift+F4).

       CLOSE_SCREEN
              Close current screen (default Shift+F5).

       HEXPAND_SCREEN
              Expand current screen horizontally (default Shift+F6).

       VEXPAND_SCREEN
              Expand current screen vertically (default Shift+F7).

       PAGE_UP
              Start backscroll mode and scroll up one page (default Shift+Prior).

       PAGE_DOWN
              Scroll down one page.  (default Shift+Next).

       SCROLL_UP
              Start backscroll mode and scroll up by one line (default Shift+Up).  Note this  key
              is enabled only when -q/--extkey option is used.

       SCROLL_DOWN
              Scroll  down  one  line  (default  Shift+Down).  Note this key is enabled only when
              -q/--extkey option is used.

       INSERT_SELECTION
              Insert selection (default Shift+Insert).

       "STRING"
              The specified string is issued when the KEY key is pressed.  Double quotation marks
              are  required around the STRING.  Note that you cannot control the status of mlterm
              by sending terminal control codes such as "\x1b]5379;encoding=utf8\x0a" because the
              code  sequence  will  be  caught  by  your  shell (or something running on it).  To
              deliver control sequences to mlterm directly, use "proto:STRING" instead.

       "proto:STRING"
              The specified string is assumed to mlterm's original control sequence.  A  list  of
              sequences  should  be found in doc/en/PROTOCOL.  For example, "proto:encoding=utf8"
              means changing the current character encoding to UTF-8.

       "exesel:STRING"
              The specified string is assumed to a command to be executed with  selected  strings
              as  arguments.   For example, "exesel:mlclient -e w3m" means executing "mlclient -e
              w3m [selected text]".

       "menu:STRING"
              The specified string is assumed to a configuration program  to  be  executed.   For
              example, "menu:mlterm-menu" means executing mlterm-menu.

   Terminal Behavior Configuration File
       This  configuration  file  determines  the  behaviors  of  mlterm  that  should  match the
       definition of terminfo and termcap.  In principle, this file should  not  be  edited  and,
       instead, you should choose a proper value for TERM variable (i.e., proper terminfo/termcap
       definition) which meets mlterm's behavior.  (Since mlterm' can behave as a xterm/kterm  to
       some  extent, TERM=kterm / TERM=xterm should give acceptable results.)  However, sometimes
       you may not want to edit your terminfo and termcap.  Your software  may  don't  understand
       terminfo  nor  termcap,  or  your  terminfo/termcap  entry  is  shared by several terminal
       emulators and changing it will break other terminals.  In such cases,  you  can  configure
       mlterm  so  that  it  works well on existing terminfo/termcap definitions on your systems.
       This is also useful for distributors of operating systems (like Debian) with strict policy
       of terminal emulators' behaviors.

       You  can define the behaviors of mlterm for each value of TERM variable, so that you don't
       need to edit termcap file each time you login into other systems and use  different  value
       of  TERM  variable  by  -y  option.   You  can also specify the default behavior when TERM
       variable is different from all of specified TERM names in the termcap file.

       The grammar of this configuration file is resemble to  the  grammar  of  termcap  entries.
       First, one or more name(s) of TERM is written.  Multiple names are connected with vertical
       line character '|'.  Special name '*' is for default.  Then colon ':' comes, and keys  are
       written separated by colons.  Configuration(s) for other TERM will follow after new line.

       Followings are available keys for each TERM value.

       kD=sequence
              Specify sequence to be outputted when Delete key is pushed (default \E[3~).

       kb=sequence
              Specify sequence to be outputted when BackSpace key is pushed (default ^H).

       kh=sequence
              Specify  sequence to be outputted when HOME key is pushed in application cursor key
              mode.  (default \EOH).

       @7=sequence
              Specify sequence to be outputted when END key is pushed in application  cursor  key
              mode.  (default \EOF).

       k1=sequence
              Specify sequence to be outputted when F1 key is pushed (default \EOP).

       k2=sequence
              Specify sequence to be outputted when F2 key is pushed (default \EOQ).

       k3=sequence
              Specify sequence to be outputted when F3 key is pushed (default \EOR).

       k4=sequence
              Specify sequence to be outputted when F4 key is pushed (default \EOS).

       k5=sequence
              Specify sequence to be outputted when F5 key is pushed (default \E[15~).

       ut     Specify the way how the screen is erased by control codes.  If ut is written in the
              termcap file, charcells are painted by the current background  color  when  erased;
              otherwise  the  charcells  are painted by the initial background color.  Default is
              non-ut behavior.

       The following special characters can be used to specify sequence in keys of kD/kb/kh/@7.

       \E     ESC code (0x1b).

       ^?     DEL code (0x7f).

       ^A, ^B,...
              Corresponding control code (0x01 - 0x1a).

   Menu Configuration File
       This configuration file defines the menu displayed  by  the  configurable  menu  displayer
       mlterm-menu.  See CONFIGURABLE MENU section for detail.
