124.1 Sun Nov 21 21:10:19 CET 2004
13 - save and restore cursor position in secondary screen regardless of
14 -ssc/-ssr settings.
15 - fix some 64-bit bugs that lead to crashes with certain other
16 programs like vncviewer (original rxvt also affected).
17 - added doc/podtbl to the dist tarball.
18 - add compile fix for darwin.
19 - configure fix for transparency without tinting.
20 - changed CN to ZH _really_ everywhere.
21 - upgraded iom.[Ch].

234.0 Mon Sep 13 01:10:26 CEST 2004
24 - turn off autohinting for some badly-hinted fallback fonts.
25 - mnaapge tpyo crorcetoins by Bastian Kleineidam.
26 - implemented rectangular selections (button+meta), experimental.
27 - implement race-free signal handling in iom.C.
28 - use iom.C signal handling to avoid races in signal handling.
29 - use default action on SIGINT and SIGQUIT, instead of terminating.
30 - "the return of the 100 times per second refresh bug".
31 ... terminated by a fix.
32 - new supported preeeditType "None".
33 - added FAQ about possible compose key problems.
34 - changed CN to ZH everywhere (sorry for the confusion).
35 - move XFilterEvent up, as some input method seem to want events
36 for windows not requesting XIM. Please report if this change
37 causes any harm (specially with pointerblanking)
38 (patch by Kuang-che Wu).
39 - send the input method spot position on every refresh, not just
40 when rxvt thinks it should (which was not often enough...).
41 - fix double-wide combining characters (it might look a bit ugly,
42 though, but common cases are handled by normalization anyways).
43 - moved FAQ to rxvt(7), also made a copy into README.FAQ.
44 - fix a bug(?) in the XIM destroy callback.
45 - be more conservative when trying to register new input methods,
46 as Xlib races might make rxvt crash. When two or more
47 input methods are active, killing one probably still crashes rxvt
48 due to that bug :( Thanks a lot to Kuang-che Wu for immense help
49 in tracking this down.
50 - manpages (but not .txt and .html versions) will be patched (during
51 make install) with the correct program name and other info.
52
533.9 Wed Aug 25 19:24:04 CEST 2004
54 - the change to unsigned int from unsigned short broke
55 many signed comparisons, resulting in failed assertions.
56
573.8 Wed Aug 25 05:46:56 CEST 2004
58 - WARNING: TERM=rxvt-unicode is now *default* unless compiled
59 differently. A terminfo entry will automatically be compiled and
60 installed if tic is available.
61 - fixed some --disable switches that didn't work.
62 - tweaked src/features.h a bit.
63 - removed README.unicode.
64 - support select&paste of tab characters.
65 - fixed a segfault when trying to load nonexistant fonts (reported
66 by Eduard Bloch and Mikael Magnusson).
67 - fixed a long-standing rxvt bug in which rxvt failed to save
68 and restore the correct cursor position on the secondary screen.
69 - reworked rxvt-unicode terminfo to allow more efficient and less flickering
70 screen updates with curses.
71 - wide characters that are being halfway overwritten are now replaced
72 by spaces.
73 - urxvtc now transmits urxvt as default name, not urxvtc anymore
74 (likewise for other names chosen at configure time).
75 - disabled the automatic font lookup for unknown characters. xft
76 is just too slow for this to work.
77 - changed realbold code, implemented _real_ bold and italic support,
78 where _real_ means the symbiosis of what I want with what I can
79 implement. use --enable-styles.
80 - removed 256 color mode, but enable 88 colours in all modes
81 (88 to be compatible with 88 colour xterm which is widely
82 supported, and most programs assume a non-iso colourtable
83 for terminals with "odd" number of colours).
84 - added doc/etc/rxvt-unicode.terminfo which is a big overhaul
85 compared to the old rxvt terminfo.
86 - sped up xft rendering by 30% *iff* the font allows it (i.e. is
87 monospaced "enough") *and* matches the base font in width.
88 - implement positive and negative character-font caching, which
89 speeds up output immensely in case a character cannot be found
90 (only for non-bold right now).
91 - fix segfault in fading code on certain escape sequences.
92 - better default font size and style.
93 - rxvt-unicode is now much more picky about fonts not fitting
94 into the base font, but to offset this it will check each
95 single character against the base font extents and will only
96 use the characters fitting into the bounding box (+ some fudge).
97 - characters not fitting into the base boundary box will now often
98 be used anyways, but the following characters will be redrawn
99 more often to avoid pixel-droppings. This is like the original
100 rxvt pixel-dropping pass but it's much faster.
101 - scrollColor now affects plain scrollbar (Mikael Magnusson).
102 - fixed segfault in overlay code when height was larger than the
103 screen height.
104 - cursor no longer shines "through" the overlay.
105 - 7-bit ST marker detection was broken.
106 - scrollbar didn't come back sometimes when switching it
107 off/on using escape sequences (Mikael Magnusson).
108 - fix lots of colour problems with focus fading.
109 - $COLORFGBG was not set as documented.
110 - fix iso 14755 5.1 support when --enable-frills but --disable-iso14755.
111 - removed OSC 702.
112 - disabled MOUSE_REPORT_DOUBLECLICK by default, as programs seem to be
113 confused by it rather than using it.
