Hello,
maybe there is a misunderstanding here....
The way these new functions in tabbedex are supposed to be used is the
following:
- you just add the tabbedex source to ~/.urxvt/ext/tabbedex
- add as usual "tabbedex" to the .Xdefaults via:
urxvt*perl-ext-common: ....,tabbedex
Then you can just normally start urxvt.
If you want some automatism there is a mechanism built-in in urxvt which has
as the API escape-sequences, as all other commands (font changes etc.).
For these OSC = operating system commands the character sequence is
"ESC ] 777 ; string ST" as explained in the manual urxvtperl(3).
So, to open a new tab in urxvt you can now write in any shell-script:
printf "\033]777;tabbedex;new_tab\007"
As shown here (https://github.com/michaeltraxler/urxvt-perls at the bottom) I
invented some more calls which makes the "remote control" and scripting of a
tab in urxvt possible.
The tabbedex-code you only have to touch if the functions available
(new_tab, make_current, set_tab_name, interactive_command) are not sufficient
for you.
Try the example script and the commands with arguments should (I hope) be self
explaining.

Subject: Re: urxvt, tabbedex, tmux: Opening a new tab and sending a command
Created Perl extension "osc_test" to experiment
with the new version "tabbedex":
----
#! perl
sub on_child_start
{
my ($self, @argv) = @_;
my $tabbedex = $self->{tabbedex};
my $tab_command = "new_tab";
my $osc = "emacs";
$tabbedex->tab_osc_seq_perl($self, $tab_command, $osc);
}
----
Command:
urxvt -pe osc_test
----
Outcomes:
1. A new urxvt window opens.
2. On the commandline of the originating window
(the window into which the command was entered),
an error message:
urxvt: Can't call method "tab_osc_seq_perl" on an undefined value at
/path/to/urvxt/extensions/osc_test line 11.
-----
P.S. An idle thought -- what if urxvt was written in LISP... now that would be
truly wizardlike (cue the inevitable interjections about Python and Haskell, of
course).

Hi,
I can contribute to that:
You can find my extended tabbedex extention here:
https://github.com/michaeltraxler/urxvt-perls/blob/master/tabbedex
where the help with an example script can be found here:
