usage: patch to some shortkey in rc.xml, lmb click and drag.

idea: As seen on internetz, but could not find the actual script

This would need (some) more work.

What an awesome idea, thanks for sharing!

You may have to reconsider the name though:

why don't you just start the urxvt with the given dimensions?

urxvt -geometry ${w}x${h}+${x}+${y}

no need for wmctrl.

edit: hmm, i think urxvt takes width and height as characters, not pixels. damn.

also, if you use stretch, you might want to look at slop (maybe part of maim).
iirc, one of the suckless tools does the same (rectangular selection).

Maybe Latin: drawicusTerminalicusVulgaris ?

Noted. edit: Implemented via slop (huge improvement).
