.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Add support for evaluating arbitrary perl code using actions in keysym
resources. If a keysym \fIaction\fR takes the form \f(CW\*(C`eval:STRING\*(C'\fR, the
specified \fBSTRING\fR is evaluated as a Perl expression. While the full
urxvt API is available, the following methods are also provided for
users' convenience, as they implement basic actions:
.ie n .IP "scroll_up $count" 4
.el .IP "scroll_up \f(CW$count\fR" 4
.IX Item "scroll_up $count"
.PD 0
.ie n .IP "scroll_up_pages $count" 4
.el .IP "scroll_up_pages \f(CW$count\fR" 4
.IX Item "scroll_up_pages $count"
.ie n .IP "scroll_down $count" 4
.el .IP "scroll_down \f(CW$count\fR" 4
.IX Item "scroll_down $count"
.ie n .IP "scroll_down_pages $count" 4
.el .IP "scroll_down_pages \f(CW$count\fR" 4
.IX Item "scroll_down_pages $count"
