Is there a way I might determine the full/precise regular expression syntax for xterm onXclicks resource, without reading the source code? xterm's regex syntax appears to be not documented. I guess that's a bug against its man-page??
So I use (the ⌐ is the symbol displayed for a tab character - I'm also wondering if there's an xterm regex escape for tab, rather than the CTRL-V then TAB combination): xterm*on2Clicks: regex [^<=>|/⌐\n▌▐]+ xterm*on3Clicks: regex [^=⌐\n▌▐]+ xterm*on4Clicks: regex [^#$ ][^#$\n]+ xterm*on5Clicks: line But for ..4clicks would like something like: xterm*on4Clicks: regex [^#$]\ ([^\n]+)\\1 ie, the bracketed expression is the part that I want - would like '\1' or \\1 to return that "(...)" part of my regex as the to-be-selected portion of text in my xterm. ie do back-expressions work in xterm regexes - have I got the syntax wrong, or are they simply not supported.
