# User Rev Content
1 pcg 1.108 Lines marked with "xterm:" indicate either xterm features ported to rxvt
2     or changed rxvt behaviour to make it more compatible to xterm (usually
3     xfree86's xterm).
4    
5 root 1.124 TODO: implement xterm mode to be able to use xfree's TERM=xterm.
6     TODO: multibyte support for setwmname et al.
7 root 1.137 TODO: there are other todo items, but they are not in this file.
8    
9     3.3
10     - some doc updates (Eduard Bloch).
11     - use faster inheritpixmap method when tinting color not set.
12     - fix pixmap offset when tinting (reported by Eduard Bloch).
13     - new -sh option by Mikael Magnusson.
14     - off-focus-fading (--enable-fading) support (patch by
15     Mikael Magnusson).
16     - cursor now set correctly on --disable-blank (reported by
17     Mikael Magnusson).
18     - better (and non-crashing) slipwheeling (Mikael Magnusson).
19     - solaris 2.8 portability changes (reported by Colin Marquardt).
20     - disable-xim now really disables xim code.
21 root 1.124
22     3.2 Mon Jul 26 19:57:32 CEST 2004
23     - support real bold fonts (patch by Adam Sampson <azz@us-lot.org>),
24     if specified in the font list (and enabled by -rb).
25     - fixed --enable-keepscrolling and --enable-selectionscrolling, which
26     was broken since 1.8. Patch by Hans de Goede <j.w.r.degoede@hhs.nl>.
27     - fixed --enable-slipwheeling, see above.
28     - sequences ended by ST can now contain any octet by quoting it
29     with ^V (SYN).
30     - 8-bit-controls disabled by default (compiletime option).
31    
32     3.1 Sat Jun 26 23:38:07 CEST 2004
33     - set default backspace sequence to "DEC" (which defaults to \177)
34     as opposed to \010 as before, which was incorrect (ahem :).
35     - updated doc/etc/rxvt.* to reflect the change. This brings rxvt
36     in line with many existing rxvt terminfo and termcap entries as
37     well as with other terminal emulators.
38     - fix a segfault when trying to set a nonexistant locale
39     (reported by elmex).
40     - find more fonts by default for japanese.
41     - the internal border wasn't always cleared. This is fixed by moving
42     the window relative to it's frame and simplifies a lot of code, too.
43     - fixed quite hard to find scrollbar colour bug, reported by Eduard
44     Bloch.
45    
46     3.0 Mon May 10 20:47:23 CEST 2004
47     - experimental flickerfree resize mode (I tried to get even
48     less flickering with SouthWestGravity but couldn't get it to work,
49     sorry).
50     - c++-ify (or at least make it compile with g++-3.4, which should
51     make it a little bit more correct c++).
52    
53 pcg 1.114 2.9 Sat May 8 19:13:41 CEST 2004
54     - fix some minor doc issues + some generated doc files are now
55     getting distributed (closes debian bug #246035).
56     - minor i18n issue fixes.
57    
58 pcg 1.110 2.8 Thu Apr 8 22:44:36 CEST 2004
59     - replace PF_LOCAL by PF_UNIX (portability).
60     - try to detect -lnsl and -lsocket (portability).
61     - fix some minor bugs.
62    
63 pcg 1.108 2.7 Mon Apr 5 02:11:15 CEST 2004
64 pcg 1.114 - this version should now work fine with TERM=xterm, except
65     for the keymappings.
66 pcg 1.108 - don't leave the X or rxvtd sockets open in child processes.
67     (inherited fd's stay open - different to rxvt).
68     - xterm: implemented OSC3, set/get window property. get is an
69     extension and is slightly ugly.
70     - removed --disable-swapscreen and SCROLL_ON_NO_SECONDARY and
71     replaced them by runtime-configurable options secondaryScreen and
72     secondaryScroll (-ssr and -ssc) (see debian bug #237673).
73     - close down terminal window when child exits. (debian bug #241267).
74     - xterm: enable seperate mouse bg colour setting.
75     - re-enable mouse cursor colours again, fixing colours when fg/bg are
76     overwritten (as is common).
77     - xterm: correctly implement privmodes 1047, 1048, 1049.
78     - ported to solaris by elmar@math.uni-bremen.de.
79    
80     2.6 Fri Apr 2 03:24:10 CEST 2004
81     - minor doc corrections.
82     - WARNING: changed menu sequence from ESC ] 10 to ESC ] 703 to
83     avoid clashes with xterm.
84     - changed OSC701/OSC702 sequence to return standard escaped reports.
85     - xterm: make set window colour and other requests report window
86     colour when arg is "?".
87     - enable colour tinting of "transparent" backgrounds.
88     - stop ST sequences earlier, as we now react on 0x90 and thus
89     cause conditions more often that look like locks but are, in
90     fact, just rxvt waiting for a ST/BEL etc.
91     - re-enabled most of the "dangerous" echo escapes, but only
92     when -insecure is specified as option or resource (see reference).
93     (FRILLS).
94     - disables sleep(1) on transparency updates on default.
95     - fixes to make it compile better on solaris 2.9 (at least).
96     asprintf replacement is still missing(!).
97     - set _NET_WM_PID.
98    
99 pcg 1.91 2.5 Sun Mar 28 04:05:51 CEST 2004
100     - the usual sprinkled little code cleanups.
101     - support more 8-bit controls.
102     - more informative error messages.
103     - fix some minor memleaks and possible memory corruptions.
104     - the use of exception handling allowed the following improvements:
105     - no longer block when waiting for completion of escape sequences
106     (e.g. printf '\e';sleep 3;printf 'c' will no longer block).
107     - rxvtc usage errors should no longer kill rxvtd (debian bug #237510).
108    
109 pcg 1.83 2.4 Tue Mar 16 07:06:51 CET 2004
110     - fix stupid double-free() bug on exit.
111     - implement xterm private mode 1049.
112     - fix manpages (debian bug #236824).
113     - removed old selection style completely.
114     - selection works _better_ for non-8-bit and double-width chars.
115     - remove native->unicode translation tables. they aren't used anymore.
116     reduces binary and distro size a bit.
117     - add string representation for JIS X 0213:2000 so these fonts can
118     be used from within rxvt.
119     - less buggy complete set of line-drawing-characters (0x2500-0x259f).
120    
121 pcg 1.74 2.3 Sun Mar 14 19:00:07 CET 2004
122     - code cleanup release.
123     - fix compile problems without --enable-combining.
124     - fix segfault when DISPLAY cannot be opened.
125     - removed HOTKEY_CTRL and HOTKEY_SHIFT, ACS_*, FONT0_IDX,
126     MAX_NFONTS. UNICODE and UTF8 defines and references from
127     all files.
128     - default config now reads an app-defaults file even without
129     --enable-xgetdefaults.
130    
131 pcg 1.69 2.2 Thu Mar 11 01:41:56 CET 2004
132     - implement autocompositing of characters by either using an existing
133     precomposed unicode character or by graphical overlay. this is
134     also used to store characters >16bit without --enable-unicode3.
135     - selection now based on wchar_t, so that it can offer UTF-8
136     selections even in locales unable to represent full unicode.
137     - tis620-2529 is, of course, thai, not vietnamese...
138     - a typoe prevented characters >65535 to be stored properly.
139     - wcwidth is unreliable in non-unicode-locales on GNU/Linux.
140 pcg 1.83 working around this fixes line-drawing characters in non-utf-8 mode.
141     - improved rounding when emulating line-drawing characters.
142 pcg 1.69 - implement continuation lines in xresource parsing when
143     --disable-xgetdefault.
144     - changed locale-setting esc-sequence from code 9 to code 701.
145     also added 702 that returns the font selected for a specific
146     unicode character.
147     - no longer set XA_CUT_BUFFER0. this is confusing and clients WILL
148     get it wrong.
149     - don't use XTextStyle for XA_TEXT, instead use XStdICCTextStyle.
150    
151 pcg 1.58 2.1 Wed Mar 3 21:48:39 CET 2004
152     - NOTE: the name of the binary and ressources were changed in
153     this version, see README.configure if you want the old
154     settings.
155     - added plain "big5" encoding into CN.
156     - make cns11643 and big5* encodings actually visible to rxvt.
157     - fix a bug when a multibyte character fell onto a buffer boundary,
158     causing the incomplete character to be presented twice to
159     mbrtowc.
160     - more robust encoding name matching.
161     - fix cursor placement on multibyte characters.
162     - when overwriting wide with narrow chars, pad with spaces.
163     - fix various refresh and display issues for wide chars.
164     - remove multibyte_cursor hack (it was a hack) and associated
165     resources and docs.
166     - fixed memory corruption bug with XLFD fontname parsing.
167    
168 pcg 1.50 2.0 Sun Feb 29 23:59:58 CET 2004
169     - do not blink text when background colour is not set explicitly.
170     - some doc cleanup
171     - configure cleanup
172     - viscii enabled by default
173     - better support for non-g++-3.2+ systems (tested with g++-2.95).
174    
175     1.91 Fri Feb 27 03:57:44 CET 2004
176     - build fixes for !xft and !im, reported by various people.
177    
178 pcg 1.46 1.9 Wed Feb 25 16:46:05 CET 2004
179 pcg 1.38 - fixed bug in plain scrollbar causing X errors in XCreateGC.
180 pcg 1.27 - implemented sharing of X connections. will be used to speed
181     up many x operations considerably. Also saves some memory.
182 pcg 1.28 - implemented caching of input methods. This immensely shortens
183 pcg 1.38 startup time for new terms in rxvtd. At least XFree86 4.3 is
184 pcg 1.28 rather broken with respect to input methods, though, so expect
185 pcg 1.32 crashes when you kill your input method (xterm et al. also crash).
186 pcg 1.37 - fix bugs in X flushing, causing an empty screen after startup.
187 pcg 1.31 - fix various memleaks in rxvtd.
188 pcg 1.33 - fix a bug that kept escape codes to be generated for some
189     keysyms that also have string translations, when not --enable-xim.
190     reported by joel reed.
191 pcg 1.35 - re-enabled esc-seq. for font-switching (\033 ] 50 ; <fontset> \007).
192 pcg 1.40 - re-enabled menubar (experimental!).
193 pcg 1.35 - fix bug in locale-handling that kept the correct locale from
194     being selected.
195     - implemented esc-seq. to switch locales (\033 ] 9 ; <locale> \007).
196 pcg 1.34 - removed greek support.
197 pcg 1.36 - allow NUL bytes (ctrl-@) to be entered even with XIM enabled.
198 pcg 1.39 - correct cursor width if !focus.
199 pcg 1.41 - fixed --enable-xgetdefault, reported by eduard bloch.
200 pcg 1.42 - added manpage for rxvtc/rxvtd based on the one eduard block
201     contributed.
202 pcg 1.43 - use reverse video for normal bold text unless colorBD has been set.
203 pcg 1.44 - fixed endless loop when selection is valid but empty.
204 pcg 1.45 - changed default terminal name to "rxvt".
205 pcg 1.39 - many other minor bugfixes.
206 pcg 1.26
207 pcg 1.25 1.8 Mon Feb 2 20:09:18 CET 2004
208 pcg 1.19 - almost total conversion to C++. Except for introducing
209     new bugs, this should not change much.
210 pcg 1.20 - fix and re-enable background pixmap and inherit pixmap support.
211 pcg 1.21 - re-enabled multiple scrollbar support.
212 pcg 1.22 - added plain scrollbar style and restored xterm scrollbar.
213     - blinking and selections work slightly better now.
214 pcg 1.23 - fix an error condition when rxvt receives more than one screenful
215     of output. should occur with original rxvt, too, but very rarely.
216 pcg 1.24 (I guess the code contains more surprises of this sort...)
217 pcg 1.19
218 pcg 1.18 1.7 Fri Jan 30 16:50:11 CET 2004
219     - further cleanups.
220     - never do last-minute-changes: restore ability to have
221 pcg 1.108 color + bold as high-intensity, and let the selection
222 pcg 1.18 use reverse video, not _blink_.
223     - remove OPTION_HC, at least temporarily. If you want it back,
224     please drop me a note.
225 pcg 1.16
226 pcg 1.15 1.6 Fri Jan 30 00:34:01 CET 2004
227 pcg 1.14 - cleanups, minor bugfixes.
228     - blinking text.
229     - normal text color + bold gets white text instead of
230     normal text when colorBD is not set.
231 pcg 1.108 (- support double-wide characters (by blocking).)
232     was never implemented

234 pcg 1.10 1.5 Thu Jan 29 00:43:48 CET 2004
235 pcg 1.7 - share io manager between rxvt-unicode and vpe
236 pcg 1.12 - bugfix for --disable-utmp, reported by fefe himself
237 pcg 1.8 - colors were sometimes not used correctly because
238     parts of the code expected a monochrome display.
239 pcg 1.12 reported by fefe
240 pcg 1.8 - make it compile without pointer_blank, reported by
241 pcg 1.12 Markus Demleitner
242 pcg 1.9 - improved selection support, now supports UTF8_STRING
243 pcg 1.12 and properly encodes CUT_BUFFER0 in iso-8859-1
244     - completely removed non-working graphics mode
245 pcg 1.7
246 pcg 1.5 1.4 Fri Jan 16 23:03:22 CET 2004
247 pcg 1.6 - fix stupid segfault on esc-c
