URxvt Terminal – Scroll Just One Line

urxvt

I can scroll a chunk of output with Shift+PageUp (or PageDown), but is there a way to scroll just one line up and down? Often, you'd like to read something that is small enough to fit in one screen, but the scrolling is so heavy handed it is impossible to get the whole text chunk within one screen anyway!

I use keysym + command in my ~/.Xresources to scroll one line up with SHIFT+UP and one line down with SHIFT+DOWN :

.....................
URxvt*scrollBar:false
URxvt*scrollBar_right: false
URxvt.keysym.Shift-Up: command:\033]720;1\007
URxvt.keysym.Shift-Down: command:\033]721;1\007

The problem was that I got shortcut for opening urxvt which called the terminal with addition arguments (“-lsp 2 -bc“). Removing arguments solved the problem.

Shell – Battery Bar in URxvt

It is a zsh shell prompt, and Oblique's configs are shared on github.

The basics of the prompt are:

# prompt theme
setopt prompt_subst
PROMPT='%{$fg[blue]%}[%D{%d/%m/%y} %T]%{$reset_color%} %(!.%{$fg_bold[red]%}.%{$fg_bold[green]%}%n@)%m%{$reset_color%} %{$fg[magenta]%}[%(!.%1~.%~)]%{$reset_color%} $(_git_prompt_info)
%{$fg[red]%}>>%{$reset_color%} '
# use battery status only if we are in linux console
if [[ $TERM = linux* ]]; then
    RPROMPT='$(_battery_status)'
fi

The battery status is a separate script and the graphics are created with unicode characters.
