TODO: xcopyarea pass broken, fix and improve |
4 |
TODO: event mechanism that replaces on_keyboard_command with something more scalable. |
5 |

6 |
TODO: overlays collide with the way the out-of-focus cursor is being drawn |
7 |
TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts, pango! |
8 |
TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc. |
9 |
TODO: slow drag selection on remote display - other things seem fast (rxvt illness, motion hints?) |
10 |
TODO: investigate -pe tabbed -g 80x25 being 23 not 24 or 25 lines |
11 |
=> when setting the constraints, the wm might (correctly) |
12 |
resize the outer window, which might result in a smaller window overall. |
13 |
or something like that. guys, send me a patch. |
14 |
WISH: skipscroll option |
15 |

18 |
WISH: anyevent mouse notification / manage MotionMask better. |
19 |
WISH: http://www120.pair.com/mccarthy/nextstep/intro.htmld/Workspace.html is the correct nextstep scrollbar look. |
20 |

21 |
DUMB: support tex fonts |
22 |
|
23 |
TODO: clear_rect -1 transparency breaks -ip |
24 |
8.0 |
25 |
- combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay, |
26 |
thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most |
27 |
circumstances (reported by exg). |
28 |
- specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the |
29 |
basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope). |
30 |
- fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C. |
31 |
- fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions. |
32 |
- added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension. |
33 |
- improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope). |
34 |
- fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts. |
35 |
- update to libptytty-1.0. |
36 |
- give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of |
37 |
corrupting the stack (patch by exg). |
38 |
- display current terminal locale in option menu. |
39 |
- urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible |
40 |
working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo |
41 |
bug #143985). |
42 |
- fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer. |
43 |
- Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that |
44 |
should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless. |
45 |
- manpage fix by exg. |
46 |
|
47 |
7.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006 |
48 |
- fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl |
49 |
+ transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348. |
50 |
- fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But |
51 |
it does! :-> |
52 |
- rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer. |
53 |
- fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves). |
54 |
|
55 |
7.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006 |
56 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults, |
57 |
earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from |
58 |
.Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my |
59 |
resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults |
60 |
resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources. |
61 |
- add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake |
62 |
terminal emulator (see man urxtvperl). |
63 |
- use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and |
64 |
Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds). |
65 |
- the "depth" resource is now respected. |
66 |
- preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search |
67 |
to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an |
68 |
uppercase character. |
69 |
- add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h. |
70 |
- re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on |
71 |
a patch by Martin Stubenschrott. |
72 |
- double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues |
73 |
when pixmap transparency was enabled. |
74 |
- strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to |
75 |
match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin. |
76 |
- moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more |
77 |
generic osc_seq. |
78 |
- fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks |
79 |
were invoked recursively. |
80 |
- the automove-background extension now properly works when the |
81 |
pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek). |
82 |
- selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters. |
83 |
- apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg |
84 |
(patch by Wu Fengguang). |
85 |
- removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there |
86 |
(spotted by Decklin Foster). |
87 |
- fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported |
88 |
by omatunto_. |
89 |
- slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't |
90 |
follow C++ closely enough. |
91 |
- fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger. |
92 |
- applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang. |
93 |
- fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the |
94 |
bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays. |
95 |
|
96 |
7.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006 |
97 |
- use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware |
98 |
combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense |
99 |
of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author. |
100 |
- readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal |
101 |
click, and eats the click. |
102 |
- tabbed perl extension now supports -e. |
103 |
- disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any |
104 |
refresh bugs please. |
105 |
- improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property |
106 |
changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips, |
107 |
improve size hint setting. |
108 |
- modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets |
109 |
the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods |
110 |
to correctly position their preedit window. |
111 |
- un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the |
112 |
former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same |
113 |
in empty spaces, but thats not true when reversing (e.g. selection), |
114 |
so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where |
115 |
selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours. |
116 |
- fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate |
117 |
focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed. |
118 |
- fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting. |
119 |
- fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on |
120 |
colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco). |
121 |
- resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly |
122 |
(reported by Paco-Paco). |
123 |
- fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be |
124 |
working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt. |
125 |
- removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option. |
126 |
|
127 |
7.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006 |
128 |
- changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix. |
129 |
- +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the |
130 |
resource value. |
131 |
- options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument. |
132 |
- the tabbed extension now forwards focus and keys events to th |
133 |
relevant tab window. |
134 |
- tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults |
135 |
(initial patch by hednod). |
136 |
- option menu is extendable, readline, selection and |
137 |
selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime. |
138 |
- forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for |
139 |
the benefit of automove-background. |
140 |
- the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset. |
141 |
- force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect. |
142 |
- return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted. |
143 |
- the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on |
144 |
__linux__. |
145 |
- further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering |
146 |
the colour components. |
147 |
- plain scrollbar works better with -sr. |
148 |
- fixed half-shadow scrollbar look. |
149 |
- more colour rtt optimisations. |
150 |
- properly(?) free colours on window close. |
151 |
- reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections. |
152 |
- add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets. |
153 |
- minor libptytty update. |
154 |
|
155 |
7.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006 |
156 |
- further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width |
157 |
detection: |
158 |
- fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated, |
159 |
- overlap detection was improved. |
160 |
- detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft). |
161 |
- careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking, |
162 |
causing unnecessary screen redraws. |
163 |
- better handling of XFT combining characters. |
164 |
- enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they |
165 |
might get used for other encodings which really need it, later. |
166 |
- remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally |
167 |
weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft. |
168 |
- removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly |
169 |
broken. |
170 |
- removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken. |
171 |
- replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to |
172 |
reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation |
173 |
of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft. |
174 |
- short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case |
175 |
(patch by Paco-Paco). |
176 |
- overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support. |
177 |
- support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and |
178 |
an "[alpha]" prefix. |
179 |
- try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100% |
180 |
transparent. Long Live Xft! |
181 |
- do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use |
182 |
Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly. |
183 |
- try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails |
184 |
on a pseudocolor screen. |
185 |
- SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes. |
186 |
- fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken). |
187 |
- changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer. |
188 |
- added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number. |
189 |
- small configure updates. |
190 |
- further RTT optimisations. |
191 |
- backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from |
192 |
the debian package. |
193 |
- updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here, |
194 |
but much newer than the old one. |
195 |
|
196 |
7.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006 |
197 |
- screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling, |
198 |
- re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre. |
199 |
- small configure updates for libptytty. |
200 |
- fixed version options: line output. |
201 |
- removed stoopid debugging message left in the code. |
202 |
|
203 |
7.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006 |
204 |
- don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl |
205 |
(could lead to global grabs never being cleared). |
206 |
- experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot). |
207 |
- moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2. |
208 |
- the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the |
209 |
selection extension. |
210 |
- added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external |
211 |
commands to fetch and store the selection data. |
212 |
- added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth |
213 |
than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic). |
214 |
- removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences. |
215 |
- be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and |
216 |
needs the careful rendering mode. |
217 |
- allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is |
218 |
too wide and needs careful mode. |
219 |
- redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode. |
220 |
- made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous. |
221 |
- reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating |
222 |
atoms only once per display. |
223 |
- renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command. |
224 |
- changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with |
225 |
xterm. |
226 |
|
227 |
7.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006 |
228 |
- bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple |
229 |
environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within |
230 |
getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once, |
231 |
ctrl-shift-672c). |
232 |
- bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused |
233 |
non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection. |
234 |
- bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to |
235 |
the primary screen. |
236 |
- bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output |
237 |
could lead to an assertion failure. |
238 |
- added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal. |
239 |
- added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning |
240 |
via mouse clicks. |
241 |
- now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection |
242 |
with shift - mouse button 2. |
243 |
- fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates |
244 |
in non-synthetic events. |
245 |
- created a separate libpty for portable and secure |
246 |
pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode. |
247 |
- the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so |
248 |
continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the |
249 |
whole urxvt[d] process. |
250 |
- support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet). |
251 |
- work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc. |
252 |
- implemented some *BSD fixes in configure. |
253 |
- removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol. |
254 |
|
255 |
7.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006 |
256 |
- setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been |
257 |
improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process |
258 |
and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This |
259 |
makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code |
260 |
and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with |
261 |
special privileges. |
262 |
- perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid |
263 |
itself. |
264 |
- new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get |
265 |
the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap. |
266 |
- new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to |
267 |
e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or |
268 |
similar stuff. |
269 |
- use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't |
270 |
span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps |
271 |
for programs displaying a status line at the bottom. |
272 |
- selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct. |
273 |
- perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection |
274 |
code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases |
275 |
:-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant. |
276 |
- perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now |
277 |
being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started. |
278 |
- implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus, |
279 |
as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm). |
280 |
- fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD. |
281 |
- complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure |
282 |
(Emanuele Giaquinta). |
283 |
- add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description, |
284 |
to set the window title. |
285 |
- swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes |
286 |
some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables |
287 |
at the wrong time. |
288 |
- removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support |
289 |
anymore. |
290 |
- removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH. |
291 |
- nuked QNX support. |
292 |
- made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code. |
293 |
- perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order. |
294 |
- changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom. |
295 |
- iom extended to support listening for child exits. |
296 |
|
297 |
7.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006 |
298 |
- added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about |
299 |
SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ. |
300 |
- selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and |
301 |
option-popup extensions enabled by default. |
302 |
- increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect |
303 |
will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related. |
304 |
- perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support |
305 |
and much much more. |
306 |
- perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r. |
307 |
- perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe. |
308 |
- perl: finally implemented --perl-eval. |
309 |
- perl: non-blocking anyevent support. |
310 |
- perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started |
311 |
setuid/setgid. |
312 |
- free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a |
313 |
side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls. |
314 |
- free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak. |
315 |
- built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast. |
316 |
- applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic. |
317 |
- applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
318 |
- mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler. |
319 |
- removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really |
320 |
compatible, and not really small either. |
321 |
- removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support. |
322 |
- removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file. |
323 |
- fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead |
324 |
to crashes. |
325 |
- limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all |
326 |
colours. |
327 |
- XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode. |
328 |
- iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering. |
329 |
|
330 |
6.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006 |
331 |
- SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were |
332 |
not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as |
333 |
world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt, |
334 |
too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only |
335 |
systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not |
336 |
GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley). |
337 |
- meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations. |
338 |
restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported |
339 |
by Mikachu). |
340 |
- optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more |
341 |
intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback, |
342 |
menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option, |
343 |
perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet. |
344 |
- try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent. |
345 |
Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now. |
346 |
- fix directory permissions on install. |
347 |
- implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters |
348 |
and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack). |
349 |
- disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless |
350 |
(it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended |
351 |
periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here. |
352 |
|
353 |
6.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006 |
354 |
- implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink |
355 |
selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by |
356 |
Chuck Blake. |
357 |
- move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would |
358 |
obscure the mouse cursor position. |
359 |
- replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly |
360 |
returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc |
361 |
on a few architectures). Reported by darix. |
362 |
- include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate |
363 |
the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing). |
364 |
- try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data |
365 |
transfer efficiency. |
366 |
- further minor cleanups. |
367 |
|
368 |
6.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005 |
369 |
- update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.). |
370 |
- fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback |
371 |
while the user still drags. |
372 |
- selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were |
373 |
not drawn correctly. |
374 |
- lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading |
375 |
to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults. |
376 |
- iso14755 overlay position was wrong. |
377 |
- iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too. |
378 |
- use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for |
379 |
stripping whitespace. |
380 |
- do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections. |
381 |
- slight cleanups in src/features.h. |
382 |
|
383 |
6.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005 |
384 |
- make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again. |
385 |
- enable slow link support by default. |
386 |
- fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions |
387 |
(also a bug in original rxvt). |
388 |
- initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails |
389 |
(see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a |
390 |
partial patch). |
391 |
- bump max columns/rows to 10000 each. |
392 |
- bump max savelines to 10000000. |
393 |
- -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process. |
394 |
- avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary. |
395 |
- major code cleanup (still not complete, though). |
396 |
- implement -hold option. |
397 |
- _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling: |
398 |
- re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged. |
399 |
- circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling). |
400 |
- slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal. |
401 |
- slight overall speed improvements. |
402 |
- considerably improved code clarity. |
403 |
- partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback |
404 |
buffer. |
405 |
|
406 |
5.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005 |
407 |
- fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix. |
408 |
- clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal |
409 |
(matters only for rxvtd). |
410 |
- fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian). |
411 |
- don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return |
412 |
bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse). |
413 |
|
414 |
5.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005 |
415 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default. |
416 |
If you want the old behaviour, try: |
417 |
configure --disable-everything <your enable options> |
418 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with |
419 |
the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your |
420 |
percentage by 100-percentage. |
421 |
- integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm. |
422 |
- slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update |
423 |
the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is |
424 |
synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other |
425 |
windows. |
426 |
- text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default |
427 |
bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting. |
428 |
- allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov). |
429 |
- removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option. |
430 |
- replaced INSTALL file. |
431 |
|
432 |
5.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005 |
433 |
- implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd. |
434 |
- separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages. |
435 |
- fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do |
436 |
not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't |
437 |
even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes). |
438 |
- large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines |
439 |
could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra |
440 |
refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt). |
441 |
|
442 |
5.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005 |
443 |
- R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised |
444 |
every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected). |
445 |
Reported by Jasmin Buchert. |
446 |
- font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently |
447 |
uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare). |
448 |
Affects display in iso14755 box. |
449 |
- rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the |
450 |
hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional |
451 |
chars mixed with fixed-width ones. |
452 |
- rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially |
453 |
overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws |
454 |
more than required, but that's better than undershooting and |
455 |
cutting pieces off of characters. |
456 |
- rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for |
457 |
fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines. |
458 |
- fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character |
459 |
at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu). |
460 |
- wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be |
461 |
output in the next line (reported by Mikachu). |
462 |
- added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin. |
463 |
|
464 |
5.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005 |
465 |
- re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement |
466 |
a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in |
467 |
meaning of the given key. |
468 |
- use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite |
469 |
(patch by Martin Edlman). |
470 |
|
471 |
5.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005 |
472 |
- match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code. |
473 |
this is necessary because it has no knowledge about |
474 |
built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code |
475 |
will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out. |
476 |
- cursor blinking now depends on frills. |
477 |
- underline cursor mode (frills, -uc). |
478 |
- implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay |
479 |
to disable it. |
480 |
|
481 |
5.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005 |
482 |
- fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long |
483 |
escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by |
484 |
Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team). |
485 |
- Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons |
486 |
with modifiers. |
487 |
- use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties. |
488 |
- properly update WM_LOCALE. |
489 |
- implement _NET_WM_PING protocol. |
490 |
- implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view |
491 |
and clear the scrollback buffer. |
492 |
|
493 |
5.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005 |
494 |
- new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave |
495 |
that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting |
496 |
a command. |
497 |
- implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus. |
498 |
- added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk, |
499 |
and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented |
500 |
in Perl/Gtk2. |
501 |
- fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling |
502 |
when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert. |
503 |
(reported by Mikael Magnusson). |
504 |
- SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt |
505 |
(sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for |
506 |
pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd, |
507 |
and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary. |
508 |
- change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using |
509 |
line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess |
510 |
with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically |
511 |
needs to be US-ASCII all the time). |
512 |
- toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help |
513 |
some apps who fail to set the correct mode. |
514 |
- check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to |
515 |
not destroy the window for other types of messages. |
516 |
- remove shared library (or any library) support - it is |
517 |
of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed |
518 |
rxvt-unicode). |
519 |
- get rid of the intpro files. |
520 |
|
521 |
5.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005 |
522 |
- fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one |
523 |
for empty keymaps which could result in crashes |
524 |
(Kuang-che Wu). |
525 |
- new option: -embed (frills). somebody could write a simple |
526 |
tk script to make a tab'able terminal now... |
527 |
- only warn on X errors and _try_ to continue (frills). |
528 |
- add COPYING back, which got lost somehow. |
529 |
- after deciding that LSM is dead, remove all traces of it, |
530 |
along with other, similar, cleanups. |
531 |
- _try_ to react sensibly to some non-monotonic time changes. |
532 |
- don't crash in urxvtc when getcwd fails (reported by Paco-Paco). |
533 |
- tweak font searching algorithm a bit to be faster and more |
534 |
compatible with older rxvt-unicode versions when multiple fonts |
535 |
match (reported by Paco-Paco). |
536 |
- urxvtd tries to stay in "/" whenever possible. |
537 |
|
538 |
5.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005 |
539 |
- document a race-free hack to start urxvtd. |
540 |
- document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt. |
541 |
- bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with |
542 |
Xt, and document it in rxvt(1). |
543 |
- correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault, |
544 |
and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for |
545 |
his patience and time in tracking this down). |
546 |
- bring own resource parsing more in line with X resource parsing, |
547 |
most notably, don't remove double quotes. |
548 |
- compile fix for freebsd (no ut_id) (Thierry Thomas). |
549 |
- clean up utmp and pty on X I/O errors and signals (idea |
550 |
by Joël Riou). |
551 |
- "un"document -xrm, it never really worked, was only |
552 |
available with --enable-xgetdefault, is not necessary |
553 |
and is surprisingly hard to implement. |
554 |
- shaved off some code segment size. |
555 |
- various code cleanups. |
556 |
- more keysym-mapping fixes. |
557 |
|
558 |
4.9 Thu Feb 3 09:52:03 CET 2005 |
559 |
- nuke out utmp entries completely. Should be fixed in |
560 |
original rxvt, too. (reported by James Michael Fultz). |
561 |
- resizes wil now correctly refresh the displayed text when |
562 |
-pixmap is active. |
563 |
- new option/resource imFont. |
564 |
- document --tripleclickwords/-tcw. |
565 |
- select logical instead of physical lines when doing a triple-click. |
566 |
- reordered help listing to group similar options together. |
567 |
- handle SIGINT the same way as SIGTERM (reported by Joël Riou). |
568 |
- fix a bug introduced while applying the keyboard patch |
569 |
(WU Fengguang). |
570 |
- document all window-op sequences (rxvt.7.) and more keysym |
571 |
examples (rxvt.1). |
572 |
- removed src/test completely. |
573 |
- renamed keysym 'proto:'-prefix to 'command:'. |
574 |
|
575 |
4.8 Tue Jan 18 02:23:57 CET 2005 |
576 |
- added a patch by WU Fengguang that makes the keyboard |
577 |
highly configurable (e.g. locale changes, custom escape |
578 |
sequences, and more). See keysym resource in rxvt(1). |
579 |
- remove default key sequence for unknown keys again, as this |
580 |
can be achieved by customizing the keyboard now. |
581 |
- fix some freeing problems when destroying the rxvt_display, |
582 |
resulting in segfaults. |
583 |
- don't crash when the saved cursor position doesn't fit on the |
584 |
screen (wrong assert in original rxvt, reported by ikaro). |
585 |
- fix signed/unsigned bugs on wc<->mb conversions. |
586 |
- reset slipwheel scrolling speed when reaching the top or bottom |
587 |
(Mikael Magnusson). |
588 |
- for core fonts, use ascent + descent when a font is loaded, |
589 |
and PIXEL_SIZE when not. when loading a font, iterate until a |
590 |
font has been found that _really_ fits the height (reported and |
591 |
tested by Olivier Wittenberg). |
592 |
- set IUTF8 input flag, when defined (linux-2.6.5+). |
593 |
- only define _XOPEN_SOURCE on solaris. |
594 |
- autogenerate src/* dependency list. |
595 |
- fixed linespace option, which ought to work now (and is dependent |
596 |
on frills, not on it's own configure option). |
597 |
- include pty.h, if available (cygwin). |
598 |
- removed W11 directory from dist, it wasn't used anyway. |
599 |
- initialize the locale much earlier. |
600 |
- fixed two tiny per-instance memory leaks. |
601 |
|
602 |
4.7 Wed Dec 29 20:54:24 CET 2004 |
603 |
- fix a bug in the event logic that could cause the temrinal to be |
604 |
black on initial startup. |
605 |
- do NOT call XCloseIM, ever. This causes way to many crashes due to |
606 |
races in the protocol and within Xlib. |
607 |
- map iso-left-tab to the same sequence as shift-tab. |
608 |
- generate a unique escape sequence for many unknown keys, such as |
609 |
additional multimedia keys. |
610 |
- mask out high (non-unicode) bits on wide characters, to cope with |
611 |
implementations that store tag info in the high bits. |
612 |
|
613 |
4.6 Thu Dec 16 07:54:23 CET 2004 |
614 |
- try very hard not to exhaust the kernel tty buffers, even |
615 |
if it slows down large pastes and is only cosmetic. |
616 |
- streamline atom and xft color allocation to reduce startup |
617 |
time (12.8s -> 7.8s on my dsl). Still, doing it with only 2-3 |
618 |
turnarounds would be much faster, but impossible to implement(?). |
619 |
- implement underlineColor resource when ENABLE_FRILLS. |
620 |
- iom left it's signal pipe handle open in the child |
621 |
process. Fortunately not security-relevant as the pipe data gets |
622 |
ignored. |
623 |
- do not use XSETROOTPMAP_ID anymore, support ESETROOT_PMAP_ID |
624 |
instead. |
625 |
- fix a crash in rxvtd when the last window was being closed |
626 |
(reported by hednod). |
627 |
- fix an unlikely memory leak. |
628 |
- fix atom name enumeration. |
629 |
|
630 |
4.5 Mon Dec 13 07:47:16 CET 2004 |
631 |
- fix an extremely nasty bug in utf8-conversion. upgrade is advised. |
632 |
- completely re-wrote selection pasting. This should fix garbled |
633 |
incomplete characters at 32k boundaries and too-short INCR |
634 |
selections, and more. Increases memory requirements considerably |
635 |
for large selections, but that seems unavoidable. |
636 |
|
637 |
4.4 Sun Dec 12 22:10:06 CET 2004 |
638 |
- rewrote handling of default-char width. |
639 |
- implement _NET_WM_NAME et al., and also use UTF8_STRING |
640 |
for the xterm property esc. sequence. Allows i18n window |
641 |
titles etc. |
642 |
- SMART_WINDOW_TITLE removed, pls. complain if you need this. |
643 |
- added GBK encoding (formidable patch by WU Fengguang). |
644 |
- fixed a bug in the transparency code. |
645 |
- upgraded iom.[Ch]. |
646 |
- force slower (but more responsive) transparency update. |
647 |
- fix off-by-one bug with wide characters at the end of a line, |
648 |
which got partially overwritten by spaces. |
649 |
- as xlib is completely broken with respect to utf-8 handling |
650 |
and nobody is going to fix it, that part has been re-implemented. |
651 |
should fix most paste problems between apps that use UTF8 encoding |
652 |
and rxvt running in a lesser-supported locale (thanks to Robin Redeker |
653 |
for writing utf8towcs). Only enabled with ENABLE_FRILLS. |
654 |
- darwin compile fix by Ethan Blanton. |
655 |
- fix the colour of the underline, which was rather random before. |
656 |
|
657 |
4.3 Sat Dec 4 04:58:37 CET 2004 |
658 |
- unapply the "emulated graphical chars. respect wcwidth" patch. |
659 |
obviously in locales not having these characters they should |
660 |
still have a width. Solve it correctly by not relying on wcwidth. |
661 |
Note to self: do not ever apply patches without checking them |
662 |
thoroughly. |
663 |
- updated .spec file, it's included in the release tarball |
664 |
now, too. |
665 |
|
666 |
4.2 Wed Dec 1 03:30:22 CET 2004 |
667 |
- make emulated graphical characters respect wcwidth (Kuang-che Wu). |
668 |
- remove debugging code that caused major slowdowns |
669 |
on high-latency networks. |
670 |
- wide characters shift the correct number of characters |
671 |
in insert mode now. Reported by Gunnar Ritter. |
672 |
- doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file contributed by Ville Herva. |
673 |
- make storage of tab movements as characters optional |
674 |
on the -ptab option and pastableTabs: resource. On request |
675 |
by Gunnar Ritter. |
676 |
- fix a bug where :size= argument for xft fonts was ignored |
677 |
or used incorrectly. Reported by Ville Herva. |
678 |
|
679 |
4.1 Sun Nov 21 21:10:19 CET 2004 |
680 |
- save and restore cursor position in secondary screen regardless of |
681 |
-ssc/-ssr settings. |
682 |
- fix some 64-bit bugs that lead to crashes with certain other |
683 |
programs like vncviewer (original rxvt also affected). |
684 |
- added doc/podtbl to the dist tarball. |
685 |
- add compile fix for darwin. |
686 |
- configure fix for transparency without tinting. |
687 |
- changed CN to ZH _really_ everywhere. |
688 |
- upgraded iom.[Ch]. |
689 |
|
690 |
4.0 Mon Sep 13 01:10:26 CEST 2004 |
691 |
- turn off autohinting for some badly-hinted fallback fonts. |
692 |
- mnaapge tpyo crorcetoins by Bastian Kleineidam. |
693 |
- implemented rectangular selections (button+meta), experimental. |
694 |
- implement race-free signal handling in iom.C. |
695 |
- use iom.C signal handling to avoid races in signal handling. |
696 |
- use default action on SIGINT and SIGQUIT, instead of terminating. |
697 |
- "the return of the 100 times per second refresh bug". |
698 |
... terminated by a fix. |
699 |
- new supported preeeditType "None". |
700 |
- added FAQ about possible compose key problems. |
701 |
- changed CN to ZH everywhere (sorry for the confusion). |
702 |
- move XFilterEvent up, as some input method seem to want events |
703 |
for windows not requesting XIM. Please report if this change |
704 |
causes any harm (specially with pointerblanking) |
705 |
(patch by Kuang-che Wu). |
706 |
- send the input method spot position on every refresh, not just |
707 |
when rxvt thinks it should (which was not often enough...). |
708 |
- fix double-wide combining characters (it might look a bit ugly, |
709 |
though, but common cases are handled by normalization anyways). |
710 |
- moved FAQ to rxvt(7), also made a copy into README.FAQ. |
711 |
- fix a bug(?) in the XIM destroy callback. |
712 |
- be more conservative when trying to register new input methods, |
713 |
as Xlib races might make rxvt crash. When two or more |
714 |
input methods are active, killing one probably still crashes rxvt |
715 |
due to that bug :( Thanks a lot to Kuang-che Wu for immense help |
716 |
in tracking this down. |
717 |
- manpages (but not .txt and .html versions) will be patched (during |
718 |
make install) with the correct program name and other info. |
719 |
|
720 |
3.9 Wed Aug 25 19:24:04 CEST 2004 |
721 |
- the change to unsigned int from unsigned short broke |
722 |
many signed comparisons, resulting in failed assertions. |
723 |
|
724 |
3.8 Wed Aug 25 05:46:56 CEST 2004 |
725 |
- WARNING: TERM=rxvt-unicode is now *default* unless compiled |
726 |
differently. A terminfo entry will automatically be compiled and |
727 |
installed if tic is available. |
728 |
- fixed some --disable switches that didn't work. |
729 |
- tweaked src/features.h a bit. |
730 |
- removed README.unicode. |
731 |
- support select&paste of tab characters. |
732 |
- fixed a segfault when trying to load nonexistant fonts (reported |
733 |
by Eduard Bloch and Mikael Magnusson). |
734 |
- fixed a long-standing rxvt bug in which rxvt failed to save |
735 |
and restore the correct cursor position on the secondary screen. |
736 |
- reworked rxvt-unicode terminfo to allow more efficient and less flickering |
737 |
screen updates with curses. |
738 |
- wide characters that are being halfway overwritten are now replaced |
739 |
by spaces. |
740 |
- urxvtc now transmits urxvt as default name, not urxvtc anymore |
741 |
(likewise for other names chosen at configure time). |
742 |
- disabled the automatic font lookup for unknown characters. xft |
743 |
is just too slow for this to work. |
744 |
- changed realbold code, implemented _real_ bold and italic support, |
745 |
where _real_ means the symbiosis of what I want with what I can |
746 |
implement. use --enable-styles. |
747 |
- removed 256 color mode, but enable 88 colours in all modes |
748 |
(88 to be compatible with 88 colour xterm which is widely |
749 |
supported, and most programs assume a non-iso colourtable |
750 |
for terminals with "odd" number of colours). |
751 |
- added doc/etc/rxvt-unicode.terminfo which is a big overhaul |
752 |
compared to the old rxvt terminfo. |
753 |
- sped up xft rendering by 30% *iff* the font allows it (i.e. is |
754 |
monospaced "enough") *and* matches the base font in width. |
755 |
- implement positive and negative character-font caching, which |
756 |
speeds up output immensely in case a character cannot be found |
757 |
(only for non-bold right now). |
758 |
- fix segfault in fading code on certain escape sequences. |
759 |
- better default font size and style. |
760 |
- rxvt-unicode is now much more picky about fonts not fitting |
761 |
into the base font, but to offset this it will check each |
762 |
single character against the base font extents and will only |
763 |
use the characters fitting into the bounding box (+ some fudge). |
764 |
- characters not fitting into the base boundary box will now often |
765 |
be used anyways, but the following characters will be redrawn |
766 |
more often to avoid pixel-droppings. This is like the original |
767 |
rxvt pixel-dropping pass but it's much faster. |
768 |
- scrollColor now affects plain scrollbar (Mikael Magnusson). |
769 |
- fixed segfault in overlay code when height was larger than the |
770 |
screen height. |
771 |
- cursor no longer shines "through" the overlay. |
772 |
- 7-bit ST marker detection was broken. |
773 |
- scrollbar didn't come back sometimes when switching it |
774 |
off/on using escape sequences (Mikael Magnusson). |
775 |
- fix lots of colour problems with focus fading. |
776 |
- $COLORFGBG was not set as documented. |
777 |
- fix iso 14755 5.1 support when --enable-frills but --disable-iso14755. |
778 |
- removed OSC 702. |
779 |
- disabled MOUSE_REPORT_DOUBLECLICK by default, as programs seem to be |
780 |
confused by it rather than using it. |
781 |
|
782 |
3.7 Tue Aug 17 04:22:25 CEST 2004 |
783 |
- new configure option --enable-iso14755. |
784 |
- full iso 14755 conformance (at least I claim so :). |
785 |
- extended the FAQ section in the manpage. |
786 |
- fix OverTheSpot and OffTheSpot editing, which was broken since ages, |
787 |
due to no fontset being available. The fontset used is a very rough |
788 |
approximation to the rxvt font, though. This fixes the |
789 |
"cannot create input context" in most cases. |
790 |
- fix coordinates used for Over && OffTheSpot editing to fit directly |
791 |
at the cursor (Over) or into the top line (Off). |
792 |
- reset SIGHUP and SIGPIPE handlers to default values (they were |
793 |
previously being ignored, causing programs not to exit on windoe |
794 |
close). |
795 |
- implemented simple overlays for feedback messages. believe it or |
796 |
not, this was a major blocker in implementing tabbed terminals. |
797 |
- fix compiling with --disable-frills (Adam Sampson). |
798 |
- clarify bold docs in README.unicode (Adam Sampson). |
799 |
- fix crash on window close when the input method or context |
800 |
could not be created. |
801 |
- add work around for badly written programs (see debian bug |
802 |
#202497). This is _not_ a bug in rxvt but rather a race |
803 |
condition in other programs (e.g. jed). It works by forcefully |
804 |
sending SIGWINCH when rxvt sees the first output from the |
805 |
command. This workaround isn't perfect (a slight cost to |
806 |
wellbehaving programs who need to resize twice), but it usually |
807 |
works. |
808 |
- set correct pixel size in struct winsize. |
809 |
- document more escape sequences. |
810 |
- fix leftover macros and a few minor doc glitches in rxvt(1). |
811 |
- work around bash's assumption that stepping into the middle of a |
812 |
character is a sensible operation. |
813 |
- fix some corner cases in autowrap handling. |
814 |
- remove various useless make cruft, renamed files to better |
815 |
reflect on their function, renamed many variables. |
816 |
- fixed printscreen functionality, as noted by Jinesh Choksi. |
817 |
- fix a problem where redraws of double-width characters sometimes |
818 |
made the last character draw with normal width (especially visible |
819 |
with selections). |
820 |
|
821 |
3.6 Sat Aug 14 04:55:26 CEST 2004 |
822 |
- SECURITY FIX: rxvtd kept open filehandles to other terminal |
823 |
windows when spawning children. Actual risk is low (attacker |
824 |
needs access to a local shell window). |
825 |
- implemented parts 5.1 and 5.2 of ISO 14755 (i.e. hold down |
826 |
Ctrl+Shift and enter hex numbers. space commits it as a unicode |
827 |
character, or press and release Crl+Shift and then enter a |
828 |
function key to get it's picture). patches for 5.3 (or 5.4 with |
829 |
a little window or so) would be welcome. |
830 |
- fixed large pastes (INCR selections, debian bug #191456). |
831 |
- fixed longstanding bug in which rxvtd crashed when |
832 |
a message was logged after startup (a rare case). |
833 |
- got rid of yodl completely by converting to pod. |
834 |
- integrated the FAQ into the manpage. In the future, more will be |
835 |
added there. |
836 |
- reference documentation is now installed as rxvt(7). |
837 |
- rxvt(7) now contains README.configure, which is autogenerated. |
838 |
- fix memory leak in insecure mode on certain display echos. |
839 |
- report sequences now report empty strings in secure mode |
840 |
instead of being ignored. |
841 |
- enable some report sequences even in secure mode, such as colour |
842 |
queries, as they are harmless(tm). |
843 |
- rxvt-unicode will now try to find a matching xft font if it can't |
844 |
find a matching font from the fallback list. It might look ugly, |
845 |
but if a xft font with our character exists, rxvt will find it. |
846 |
- moved FreeMono to the very back of the fallback list, as some |
847 |
people complain it looks ugly. This is a no-win situation, though. |
848 |
- fixed sourceforge bug 998970, reported against aterm: |
849 |
"crash on -sl 0 on super small windows". |
850 |
- decreased memory and code size when !--enable-transparency. |
851 |
- SYNCCVS. backported changes done to rxvt, except for Color_ufbg, |
852 |
which I think is better done through fading, and libW11, which |
853 |
needs testing anyways. |
854 |
- more complete compile options help output. |
855 |
- Provide linear scaled colour cubes for 256 colour mode. |
856 |
Pass them through as rgbi rather than rgb so that Xlib can |
857 |
provide gamma (from per visual intensity lists) rather than |
858 |
providing constant gamma ourselves. Noticed by and ideas from |
859 |
Christopher Casey <realchriscasey@hotmail.com> |
860 |
- minor doc fix. |
861 |
|
862 |
3.5 Wed Aug 11 00:31:34 CEST 2004 |
863 |
- UPGRADE ADVISED: rxvt did wake up 100 times per second. did not |
864 |
show in my top (linux...), but it's extremely annoying that I |
865 |
released it with that bug. :( Fixed. |
866 |
- use memove instead of for-loop for large scrollback buffer copies. |
867 |
speeds up large scrollback buffers (on systems with reasonable |
868 |
memmove :) |
869 |
- minor cleanups. |
870 |
- removed ~ from default cutchars, in accordance with the manpage |
871 |
(debian bug #169415). |
872 |
- fix a race condition on exit (debian bug #197265). |
873 |
- change prio/next scrolling modifier handling (debian bug #226386). |
874 |
- updated configure script to current autoconf standards. |
875 |
- updated config.guess. |
876 |
|
877 |
3.4 Fri Aug 6 19:34:29 CEST 2004 |
878 |
- fix inheritpixmap transparency border code. |
879 |
- fix tinting transparency border code, also experimentally |
880 |
make some scrollbars transparent (e.g. plain, my favourite style :). |
881 |
- imported aterm shading code (faster and still portable). |
882 |
- changed interpretation and usage of shading (-sh). |
883 |
- fixed blinking underlined and negative text. |
884 |
- disable slow link support on connections using unix domain sockets, |
885 |
speeding up scrolling immensely. |
886 |
- various other optimizations. |
887 |
- new borderLess switch (ewmh-compliant), by Mikael Magnusson. |
888 |
|
889 |
3.3 Sat Jul 31 15:15:59 CEST 2004 |
890 |
- some doc updates (Eduard Bloch). |
891 |
- use faster inheritpixmap method when tinting color not set. |
892 |
- fix pixmap offset when tinting (reported by Eduard Bloch). |
893 |
- new -sh option by Mikael Magnusson. |
894 |
- off-focus-fading (--enable-fading) support (patch by |
895 |
Mikael Magnusson, based on aterm code). |
896 |
- cursor now set correctly on --disable-blank (reported by |
897 |
Mikael Magnusson). |
898 |
- better (and non-crashing) slipwheeling (Mikael Magnusson). |
899 |
- solaris 2.8 portability changes (reported by Colin Marquardt). |
900 |
- disable-xim now really disables xim code. |
901 |
|
902 |
3.2 Mon Jul 26 19:57:32 CEST 2004 |
903 |
- support real bold fonts (patch by Adam Sampson <azz@us-lot.org>), |
904 |
if specified in the font list (and enabled by -rb). |
905 |
- fixed --enable-keepscrolling and --enable-selectionscrolling, which |
906 |
was broken since 1.8. Patch by Hans de Goede <j.w.r.degoede@hhs.nl>. |
907 |
- fixed --enable-slipwheeling, see above. |
908 |
- sequences ended by ST can now contain any octet by quoting it |
909 |
with ^V (SYN). |
910 |
- 8-bit-controls disabled by default (compiletime option). |
911 |
|
912 |
3.1 Sat Jun 26 23:38:07 CEST 2004 |
913 |
- set default backspace sequence to "DEC" (which defaults to \177) |
914 |
as opposed to \010 as before, which was incorrect (ahem :). |
915 |
- updated doc/etc/rxvt.* to reflect the change. This brings rxvt |
916 |
in line with many existing rxvt terminfo and termcap entries as |
917 |
well as with other terminal emulators. |
918 |
- fix a segfault when trying to set a nonexistant locale |
919 |
(reported by elmex). |
920 |
- find more fonts by default for japanese. |
921 |
- the internal border wasn't always cleared. This is fixed by moving |
922 |
the window relative to it's frame and simplifies a lot of code, too. |
923 |
- fixed quite hard to find scrollbar colour bug, reported by Eduard |
924 |
Bloch. |
925 |
|
926 |
3.0 Mon May 10 20:47:23 CEST 2004 |
927 |
- experimental flickerfree resize mode (I tried to get even |
928 |
less flickering with SouthWestGravity but couldn't get it to work, |
929 |
sorry). |
930 |
- c++-ify (or at least make it compile with g++-3.4, which should |
931 |
make it a little bit more correct c++). |
932 |
|
933 |
2.9 Sat May 8 19:13:41 CEST 2004 |
934 |
- fix some minor doc issues + some generated doc files are now |
935 |
getting distributed (closes debian bug #246035). |
936 |
- minor i18n issue fixes. |
937 |
|
938 |
2.8 Thu Apr 8 22:44:36 CEST 2004 |
939 |
- replace PF_LOCAL by PF_UNIX (portability). |
940 |
- try to detect -lnsl and -lsocket (portability). |
941 |
- fix some minor bugs. |
942 |
|
943 |
2.7 Mon Apr 5 02:11:15 CEST 2004 |
944 |
- this version should now work fine with TERM=xterm, except |
945 |
for the keymappings. |
946 |
- don't leave the X or rxvtd sockets open in child processes. |
947 |
(inherited fd's stay open - different to rxvt). |
948 |
- xterm-compat: implemented OSC3, set/get window property. get is |
949 |
an extension and is slightly ugly. |
950 |
- removed --disable-swapscreen and SCROLL_ON_NO_SECONDARY and |
951 |
replaced them by runtime-configurable options secondaryScreen and |
952 |
secondaryScroll (-ssr and -ssc) (see debian bug #237673). |
953 |
- close down terminal window when child exits. (debian bug #241267). |
954 |
- xterm-compat: enable seperate mouse bg colour setting. |
955 |
- re-enable mouse cursor colours again, fixing colours when fg/bg are |
956 |
overwritten (as is common). |
957 |
- xterm-compat: correctly implement privmodes 1047, 1048, 1049. |
958 |
- ported to solaris by elmar@math.uni-bremen.de. |
959 |
|
960 |
2.6 Fri Apr 2 03:24:10 CEST 2004 |
961 |
- minor doc corrections. |
962 |
- WARNING: changed menu sequence from ESC ] 10 to ESC ] 703 to |
963 |
avoid clashes with xterm. |
964 |
- changed OSC701/OSC702 sequence to return standard escaped reports. |
965 |
- xterm-compat: make set window colour and other requests report |
966 |
window colour when arg is "?". |
967 |
- enable colour tinting of "transparent" backgrounds. |
968 |
- stop ST sequences earlier, as we now react on 0x90 and thus |
969 |
cause conditions more often that look like locks but are, in |
970 |
fact, just rxvt waiting for a ST/BEL etc. |
971 |
- re-enabled most of the "dangerous" echo escapes, but only |
972 |
when -insecure is specified as option or resource (see reference). |
973 |
(FRILLS). |
974 |
- disables sleep(1) on transparency updates on default. |
975 |
- fixes to make it compile better on solaris 2.9 (at least). |
976 |
asprintf replacement is still missing(!). |
977 |
- set _NET_WM_PID. |
978 |
|
979 |
2.5 Sun Mar 28 04:05:51 CEST 2004 |
980 |
- the usual sprinkled little code cleanups. |
981 |
- support more 8-bit controls. |
982 |
- more informative error messages. |
983 |
- fix some minor memleaks and possible memory corruptions. |
984 |
- the use of exception handling allowed the following improvements: |
985 |
- no longer block when waiting for completion of escape sequences |
986 |
(e.g. printf '\e';sleep 3;printf 'c' will no longer block). |
987 |
- rxvtc usage errors should no longer kill rxvtd (debian bug #237510). |
988 |
|
989 |
2.4 Tue Mar 16 07:06:51 CET 2004 |
990 |
- fix stupid double-free() bug on exit. |
991 |
- implement xterm private mode 1049. |
992 |
- fix manpages (debian bug #236824). |
993 |
- removed old selection style completely. |
994 |
- selection works _better_ for non-8-bit and double-width chars. |
995 |
- remove native->unicode translation tables. they aren't used anymore. |
996 |
reduces binary and distro size a bit. |
997 |
- add string representation for JIS X 0213:2000 so these fonts can |
998 |
be used from within rxvt. |
999 |
- less buggy complete set of line-drawing-characters (0x2500-0x259f). |
1000 |
|
1001 |
2.3 Sun Mar 14 19:00:07 CET 2004 |
1002 |
- code cleanup release. |
1003 |
- fix compile problems without --enable-combining. |
1004 |
- fix segfault when DISPLAY cannot be opened. |
1005 |
- removed HOTKEY_CTRL and HOTKEY_SHIFT, ACS_*, FONT0_IDX, |
1006 |
MAX_NFONTS. UNICODE and UTF8 defines and references from |
1007 |
all files. |
1008 |
- default config now reads an app-defaults file even without |
1009 |
--enable-xgetdefaults. |
1010 |
|
1011 |
2.2 Thu Mar 11 01:41:56 CET 2004 |
1012 |
- implement autocompositing of characters by either using an existing |
1013 |
precomposed unicode character or by graphical overlay. this is |
1014 |
also used to store characters >16bit without --enable-unicode3. |
1015 |
- selection now based on wchar_t, so that it can offer UTF-8 |
1016 |
selections even in locales unable to represent full unicode. |
1017 |
- tis620-2529 is, of course, thai, not vietnamese... |
1018 |
- a typoe prevented characters >65535 to be stored properly. |
1019 |
- wcwidth is unreliable in non-unicode-locales on GNU/Linux. |
1020 |
working around this fixes line-drawing characters in non-utf-8 mode. |
1021 |
- improved rounding when emulating line-drawing characters. |
1022 |
- implement continuation lines in xresource parsing when |
1023 |
--disable-xgetdefault. |
1024 |
- changed locale-setting esc-sequence from code 9 to code 701. |
1025 |
also added 702 that returns the font selected for a specific |
1026 |
unicode character. |
1027 |
- no longer set CUT_BUFFER0. this is confusing and clients WILL |
1028 |
get it wrong. |
1029 |
- don't use XTextStyle for TEXT, instead use XStdICCTextStyle. |
1030 |
|
1031 |
2.1 Wed Mar 3 21:48:39 CET 2004 |
1032 |
- NOTE: the name of the binary and resources were changed in |
1033 |
this version, see README.configure if you want the old |
1034 |
settings. |
1035 |
- added plain "big5" encoding into CN. |
1036 |
- make cns11643 and big5* encodings actually visible to rxvt. |
1037 |
- fix a bug when a multibyte character fell onto a buffer boundary, |
1038 |
causing the incomplete character to be presented twice to |
1039 |
mbrtowc. |
1040 |
- more robust encoding name matching. |
1041 |
- fix cursor placement on multibyte characters. |
1042 |
- when overwriting wide with narrow chars, pad with spaces. |
1043 |
- fix various refresh and display issues for wide chars. |
1044 |
- remove multibyte_cursor hack (it was a hack) and associated |
1045 |
resources and docs. |
1046 |
- fixed memory corruption bug with XLFD fontname parsing. |
1047 |
|
1048 |
2.0 Sun Feb 29 23:59:58 CET 2004 |
1049 |
- do not blink text when background colour is not set explicitly. |
1050 |
- some doc cleanup |
1051 |
- configure cleanup |
1052 |
- viscii enabled by default |
1053 |
- better support for non-g++-3.2+ systems (tested with g++-2.95). |
1054 |
|
1055 |
1.91 Fri Feb 27 03:57:44 CET 2004 |
1056 |
- build fixes for !xft and !im, reported by various people. |
1057 |
|
1058 |
1.9 Wed Feb 25 16:46:05 CET 2004 |
1059 |
- fixed bug in plain scrollbar causing X errors in XCreateGC. |
1060 |
- implemented sharing of X connections. will be used to speed |
1061 |
up many x operations considerably. Also saves some memory. |
1062 |
- implemented caching of input methods. This immensely shortens |
1063 |
startup time for new terms in rxvtd. At least XFree86 4.3 is |
1064 |
rather broken with respect to input methods, though, so expect |
1065 |
crashes when you kill your input method (xterm et al. also crash). |
1066 |
- fix bugs in X flushing, causing an empty screen after startup. |
1067 |
- fix various memleaks in rxvtd. |
1068 |
- fix a bug that kept escape codes to be generated for some |
1069 |
keysyms that also have string translations, when not --enable-xim. |
1070 |
reported by joel reed. |
1071 |
- re-enabled esc-seq. for font-switching (\033 ] 50 ; <fontset> \007). |
1072 |
- re-enabled menubar (experimental!). |
1073 |
- fix bug in locale-handling that kept the correct locale from |
1074 |
being selected. |
1075 |
- implemented esc-seq. to switch locales (\033 ] 9 ; <locale> \007). |
1076 |
- removed greek support. |
1077 |
- allow NUL bytes (ctrl-@) to be entered even with XIM enabled. |
1078 |
- correct cursor width if !focus. |
1079 |
- fixed --enable-xgetdefault, reported by eduard bloch. |
1080 |
- added manpage for rxvtc/rxvtd based on the one eduard bloch |
1081 |
contributed. |
1082 |
- use reverse video for normal bold text unless colorBD has been set. |
1083 |
- fixed endless loop when selection is valid but empty. |
1084 |
- changed default terminal name to "rxvt". |
1085 |
- many other minor bugfixes. |
1086 |
|
1087 |
1.8 Mon Feb 2 20:09:18 CET 2004 |
1088 |
- almost total conversion to C++. Except for introducing |
1089 |
new bugs, this should not change much. |
1090 |
- fix and re-enable background pixmap and inherit pixmap support. |
1091 |
- re-enabled multiple scrollbar support. |
1092 |
- added plain scrollbar style and restored xterm scrollbar. |
1093 |
- blinking and selections work slightly better now. |
1094 |
- fix an error condition when rxvt receives more than one screenful |
1095 |
of output. should occur with original rxvt, too, but very rarely. |
1096 |
(I guess the code contains more surprises of this sort...) |
1097 |
|
1098 |
1.7 Fri Jan 30 16:50:11 CET 2004 |
1099 |
- further cleanups. |
1100 |
- never do last-minute-changes: restore ability to have |
1101 |
color + bold as high-intensity, and let the selection |
1102 |
use reverse video, not _blink_. |
1103 |
- remove OPTION_HC, at least temporarily. If you want it back, |
1104 |
please drop me a note. |
1105 |
|
1106 |
1.6 Fri Jan 30 00:34:01 CET 2004 |
1107 |
- cleanups, minor bugfixes. |
1108 |
