xrdb prints anything that you have configured, but how do you print the values for the settings which you have not touched? Either generally for X resources or specifically for urxvt. The colour scheme, that is, color0 onwards, can be found in an obscure manual. Trawling around to find all the defaults is going to be tedious and error prone, since documentation could always be out of date.

The app-defaults file has that information, e.g., (depends on system) /etc/X11/app-defaults/URxvt
The appres command would also show this, e.g.,
appres URxvt
but there are compiled-in default values, for which only the manual is helpful.
The classname URxvt is pertinent, since you asked for the default (and that's what is usually meant in that case). The instance name urxvt also can be used.

`appres URxvt` only shows the things I've configured through .Xresources, so that isn't useful. And `sudo find /etc/ -iname '*URxvt*'` finds nothing. – l0b0 Nov 13 '17 at 18:36

app-defaults might be under /usr/lib (but the package manager should be able to list the contents of that package, and be more certain). – Thomas Dickey Nov 13 '17 at 22:40

`pacman --query --list rxvt-unicode | grep -i default` shows nothing, so I'm not sure what to look for. – l0b0 Nov 16 '17 at 04:02
