+Deprecated perl extensions for the rxvt-unicode terminal emulator.
+
+See the file README.md in the parent directory for installation instructions,
+in case you still want to use them.
+
+
+url-select
+----------
+Use keyboard shortcuts to select URLs.
+
+**DEPRECATED**
+
+Since version 9.21 the *matcher* extension shipped with rxvt-unicode fully
+replaces this extension. The `url-select:select_next` action is provided by the
+`matcher:select` action. However, the *matcher* extension does not provide
+vi-like key bindings; it only uses the arrow and home/end keys.
+
+This should be used as a replacement for the default matcher extension, it also
+makes URLs clickable with the middle mouse button.
+
+After installing, put the following lines in your .Xdefaults/.Xresources:
+
+ URxvt.perl-ext-common: ...,url-select
+ URxvt.keysym.M-u: perl:url-select:select_next
+
+Use Meta-u to activate URL selection mode, then use the following keys:
+
+ j/k: Select next downward/upward URL (also with arrow keys)
+ g/G: Select first/last URL (also with home/end key)
+ o/Return: Open selected URL in browser, Return: deactivate afterwards
+ y: Copy (yank) selected URL and deactivate selection mode
+ q/Escape: Deactivate URL selection mode
+
+Options:
+
+ URxvt.url-select.autocopy: if set to true, selected URLs are automatically
+ copied to the PRIMARY buffer
+ URxvt.url-select.button: mouse button to click-open URLs (default: 2)
+ URxvt.url-select.launcher: browser/command to open selected URL with
+ URxvt.url-select.underline: if set to true, all URLs get underlined
+
+For compatibility reasons, url-select will also use any patterns defined for
+the matcher extension by reading all `URxvt.matcher.pattern.[0-9]` resources.
+
+
+clipboard
+---------
+
+**DEPRECATED**
+
+Since version 9.20 rxvt-unicode natively supports copying to and pasting from
+the CLIPBOARD buffer with the `Ctrl-Meta-c` and `Ctrl-Meta-v` key bindings. The
+`clipboard.autocopy` setting is provided by the `selection-to-clipboard`
+extension shipped with rxvt-unicode.
+
+Use keyboard shortcuts to copy the selection to the clipboard and to paste the
+clipboard contents (optionally escaping all special characters).
+
+After installing, put the following lines in your .Xdefaults/.Xresources:
+
+ URxvt.perl-ext-common: ...,clipboard
+ URxvt.keysym.M-c: perl:clipboard:copy
+ URxvt.keysym.M-v: perl:clipboard:paste
+ URxvt.keysym.M-C-v: perl:clipboard:paste_escaped
+
+Options:
+
+ URxvt.clipboard.autocopy: if set to true, the clipboard is automatically
+ updated whenever the PRIMARY selection changes
+
+You can also overwrite the system commands to use for copying/pasting.
+The default ones are:
+
+ URxvt.clipboard.copycmd: xsel -ib
+ URxvt.clipboard.pastecmd: xsel -ob
+
+If you prefer xclip, then put these lines in your .Xdefaults/.Xresources:
+
+ URxvt.clipboard.copycmd: xclip -i -selection clipboard
+ URxvt.clipboard.pastecmd: xclip -o -selection clipboard
+
+On Mac OS X, put these lines in your .Xdefaults/.Xresources:
+
+ URxvt.clipboard.copycmd: pbcopy
+ URxvt.clipboard.pastecmd: pbpaste
+
+The use of the functions should be self-explanatory!
