To use the other available functions or change the keys, add some keybindings of your own: .PP .Vb 6 \& URxvt.keysym.C\-Up: font\-size:increase \& URxvt.keysym.C\-Down: font\-size:decrease \& URxvt.keysym.C\-S\-Up: font\-size:incglobal \& URxvt.keysym.C\-S\-Down: font\-size:decglobal \& URxvt.keysym.C\-equal: font\-size:reset \& URxvt.keysym.C\-slash: font\-size:show .Ve .PP Note that for urxvt versions older than 9.21 the resources have to look like this: .PP .Vb 6 \& URxvt.keysym.C\-Up: perl:font\-size:increase \& URxvt.keysym.C\-Down: perl:font\-size:decrease \& URxvt.keysym.C\-S\-Up: perl:font\-size:incglobal \& URxvt.keysym.C\-S\-Down: perl:font\-size:decglobal \& URxvt.keysym.C\-equal: perl:font\-size:reset \& URxvt.keysym.C\-slash: perl:font\-size:show .Ve .PP Supported functions: .IP \(bu 2 increase/decrease: .Sp .Vb 1 \& increase or decrease the font size of the current terminal. .Ve .IP \(bu 2 incglobal/decglobal: .Sp .Vb 2 \& same as above and also adjust the X server values so all newly \& started terminals will use the same fontsize. .Ve .IP \(bu 2 incsave/decsave: .Sp .Vb 3 \& same as incglobal/decglobal and also modify the ~/.Xresources \& file so the changed font sizes will persist over a restart of \& the X server or a reboot. .Ve .IP \(bu 2 reset: .Sp .Vb 2 \& reset the font size to the value of the resource when starting \& the terminal. .Ve .IP \(bu 2 show .Sp .Vb 1 \& show the current value of the \*(Aqfont\*(Aq resource in a popup. .Ve .PP You can also change the step size that the script will use to increase the font size: .PP .Vb 1 \& URxvt.font\-size.step: 4 .Ve .PP The default step size is 1. This means that with this setting a size change sequence would be for example 8\->12\->16\->20 instead of 8\->9\->10\->11\->12 etc. Please note that many X11 fonts are only available in specific sizes, though, and odd sizes are often not available, resulting in an effective step size of 2 instead of 1 in that case.
