Daemon mode support
I'm using urxvt in daemon mode: urxvtd and urxvtc.
killall -SIGHUP urxvtd
won't reload my terminal windows although the script works fine if used for plain urxvt.
This seems to work fine on my machine: Arch Linux,
rxvt-unicode (urxvt) v9.22 - released: 2016-01-23
options: perl,xft,styles,combining,blink,iso14755,unicode3,encodings=eu+vn+jp+jp-ext+kr+zh+zh-ext,fade,transparent,tint,XIM,frills,selectionscrolling,wheel,slipwheel,cursorBlink,pointerBlank,scrollbars=plain+rxvt+NeXT+xterm
What is your system/version/configuration?
It works now for me too, maybe the problem was somewhere else, it was fixed by some update or I made a mistake when I diagnosed.
This seems to happen randomly with each urxvtd start. Sometimes reload works just fine, sometimes not, sometimes after the unsuccessful attempt the urxvtd stops being able to spawn new clients.
