Revision 1.393 by root, Sun Apr 17 22:36:12 2005 UTC

1Lines marked with "xterm:" indicate either xterm features ported to rxvt 1TODO: do font request caching, might help rxvtd on some machines
2or changed rxvt behaviour to make it more compatible to xterm (usually 2TODO: safer command: keymap processing.
3xfree86's xterm). 3TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts
4TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
5WISH: keyboard modification via esc-sequences.
6WISH: line-rewrapping on resize
7WISH: searchable backlog
8WISH: meta-tagging of data by regex (my dream project)
9WISH: double-click: more intelligent (urls etc.)
10WISH: OnTheSpot editing, or maybe switch to miiiiiiif
11WISH: tabbed windows (hey, just use screen...)
12WISH: just for fun, do shade and tint with XRender.

5TODO: hotkey font resizing 145.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
6TODO: +ssc -ssr seems to scroll at wrong time, scrolling up the empty sec. scr. 15 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
7TODO: multibyte support for setwmname et al. 16 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
8TODO: tabbed windows 17 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
9TODO: there are other todo items, but they are not in this file. 18 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
10TODO: OnTheSpot editing. 19 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
20 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
21 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
22 to disble it.
23
245.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
25 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
26 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
27 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
28 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
29 with modifiers.
30 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
31 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
32 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
33 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
34 and clear the scrollback buffer.
35
365.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
37 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
38 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
39 a command.
40 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
41 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
42 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
43 in Perl/Gtk2.
44 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
45 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
46 (reported by Mikael Magnusson).
47 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
48 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
49 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
50 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
51 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
52 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
53 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
54 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
55 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
56 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
57 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
58 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
59 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
60 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed
61 rxvt-unicode).
62 - get rid of the intpro files.
63
645.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005
65 - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one
66 for empty keymaps which could result in crashes
67 (Kuang-che Wu).
68 - new option: -embed (frills). somebody could write a simple
69 tk script to make a tab'able terminal now...
70 - only warn on X errors and _try_ to continue (frills).
71 - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow.
72 - after deciding that LSM is dead, remove all traces of it,
73 along with other, similar, cleanups.
74 - _try_ to react sensibly to some non-monotonic time changes.
75 - don't crash in urxvtc when getcwd fails (reported by Paco-Paco).
76 - tweak font searching algorithm a bit to be faster and more
77 compatible with older rxvt-unicode versions when multiple fonts
78 match (reported by Paco-Paco).
79 - urxvtd tries to stay in "/" whenever possible.
80
815.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005
82 - document a race-free hack to start urxvtd.
83 - document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt.
84 - bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with
85 Xt, and document it in rxvt(1).
86 - correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault,
87 and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for
88 his patience and time in tracking this down).
89 - bring own resource parsing more in line with X resource parsing,
90 most notably, don't remove double quotes.
91 - compile fix for freebsd (no ut_id) (Thierry Thomas).
92 - clean up utmp and pty on X I/O errors and signals (idea
93 by Joël Riou).
94 - "un"document -xrm, it never really worked, was only
95 available with --enable-xgetdefault, is not necessary
96 and is surprisingly hard to implement.
97 - shaved off some code segment size.
98 - various code cleanups.
99 - more keysym-mapping fixes.
100
1014.9 Thu Feb 3 09:52:03 CET 2005
102 - nuke out utmp entries completely. Should be fixed in
103 original rxvt, too. (reported by James Michael Fultz).
104 - resizes wil now correctly refresh the displayed text when
105 -pixmap is active.
106 - new option/resource imFont.
107 - document --tripleclickwords/-tcw.
108 - select logical instead of physical lines when doing a triple-click.
109 - reordered help listing to group similar options together.
110 - handle SIGINT the same way as SIGTERM (reported by Joël Riou).
111 - fix a bug introduced while applying the keyboard patch
112 (WU Fengguang).
113 - document all window-op sequences (rxvt.7.) and more keysym
114 examples (rxvt.1).
115 - removed src/test completely.
116 - renamed keysym 'proto:'-prefix to 'command:'.
117
1184.8 Tue Jan 18 02:23:57 CET 2005
119 - added a patch by WU Fengguang that makes the keyboard
120 highly configurable (e.g. locale changes, custom escape
121 sequences, and more). See keysym resource in rxvt(1).
122 - remove default key sequence for unknown keys again, as this
123 can be achieved by customizing the keyboard now.
124 - fix some freeing problems when destroying the rxvt_display,
125 resulting in segfaults.
126 - don't crash when the saved cursor position doesn't fit on the
127 screen (wrong assert in original rxvt, reported by ikaro).
128 - fix signed/unsigned bugs on wc<->mb conversions.
129 - reset slipwheel scrolling speed when reaching the top or bottom
130 (Mikael Magnusson).
131 - for core fonts, use ascent + descent when a font is loaded,
132 and PIXEL_SIZE when not. when loading a font, iterate until a
133 font has been found that _really_ fits the height (reported and
134 tested by Olivier Wittenberg).
135 - set IUTF8 input flag, when defined (linux-2.6.5+).
136 - only define _XOPEN_SOURCE on solaris.
137 - autogenerate src/* dependency list.
138 - fixed linespace option, which ought to work now (and is dependent
139 on frills, not on it's own configure option).
140 - include pty.h, if available (cygwin).
141 - removed W11 directory from dist, it wasn't used anyway.
142 - initialize the locale much earlier.
143 - fixed two tiny per-instance memory leaks.
144
1454.7 Wed Dec 29 20:54:24 CET 2004
146 - fix a bug in the event logic that could cause the temrinal to be
147 black on initial startup.
148 - do NOT call XCloseIM, ever. This causes way to many crashes due to
149 races in the protocol and within Xlib.
150 - map iso-left-tab to the same sequence as shift-tab.
151 - generate a unique escape sequence for many unknown keys, such as
152 additional multimedia keys.
153 - mask out high (non-unicode) bits on wide characters, to cope with
154 implementations that store tag info in the high bits.
155
1564.6 Thu Dec 16 07:54:23 CET 2004
157 - try very hard not to exhaust the kernel tty buffers, even
158 if it slows down large pastes and is only cosmetic.
159 - streamline atom and xft color allocation to reduce startup
160 time (12.8s -> 7.8s on my dsl). Still, doing it with only 2-3
161 turnarounds would be much faster, but impossible to implement(?).
162 - implement underlineColor resource when ENABLE_FRILLS.
163 - iom left it's signal pipe handle open in the child
164 process. Fortunately not security-relevant as the pipe data gets
165 ignored.
166 - do not use XSETROOTPMAP_ID anymore, support ESETROOT_PMAP_ID
167 instead.
168 - fix a crash in rxvtd when the last window was being closed
169 (reported by hednod).
170 - fix an unlikely memory leak.
171 - fix atom name enumeration.
172
1734.5 Mon Dec 13 07:47:16 CET 2004
174 - fix an extremely nasty bug in utf8-conversion. upgrade is advised.
175 - completely re-wrote selection pasting. This should fix garbled
176 incomplete characters at 32k boundaries and too-short INCR
177 selections, and more. Increases memory requirements considerably
178 for large selections, but that seems unavoidable.
179
1804.4 Sun Dec 12 22:10:06 CET 2004
181 - rewrote handling of default-char width.
182 - implement _NET_WM_NAME et al., and also use UTF8_STRING
183 for the xterm property esc. sequence. Allows i18n window
184 titles etc.
185 - SMART_WINDOW_TITLE removed, pls. complain if you need this.
186 - added GBK encoding (formidable patch by WU Fengguang).
187 - fixed a bug in the transparency code.
188 - upgraded iom.[Ch].
189 - force slower (but more responsive) transparency update.
190 - fix off-by-one bug with wide characters at the end of a line,
191 which got partially overwritten by spaces.
192 - as xlib is completely broken with respect to utf-8 handling
193 and nobody is going to fix it, that part has been re-implemented.
194 should fix most paste problems between apps that use UTF8 encoding
195 and rxvt running in a lesser-supported locale (thanks to Robin Redeker
196 for writing utf8towcs). Only enabled with ENABLE_FRILLS.
197 - darwin compile fix by Ethan Blanton.
198 - fix the colour of the underline, which was rather random before.
199
2004.3 Sat Dec 4 04:58:37 CET 2004
201 - unapply the "emulated graphical chars. respect wcwidth" patch.
202 obviously in locales not having these characters they should
203 still have a width. Solve it correctly by not relying on wcwidth.
204 Note to self: do not ever apply patches without checking them
205 thoroughly.
206 - updated .spec file, it's included in the release tarball
207 now, too.
208
2094.2 Wed Dec 1 03:30:22 CET 2004
210 - make emulated graphical characters respect wcwidth (Kuang-che Wu).
211 - remove debugging code that caused major slowdowns
212 on high-latency networks.
213 - wide characters shift the correct number of characters
214 in insert mode now. Reported by Gunnar Ritter.
215 - doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file contributed by Ville Herva.
216 - make storage of tab movements as characters optional
217 on the -ptab option and pastableTabs: resource. On request
218 by Gunnar Ritter.
219 - fix a bug where :size= argument for xft fonts was ignored
220 or used incorrectly. Reported by Ville Herva.
