149.0
15 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
16 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0.
17 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
18 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
19 at the wrong time.
20 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
21 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
22 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
23 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
24 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
25 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
26 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
27 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
28 - applied many patches by Emanuele Giaquinta that clean the code up
29 and fix more bugs in the utmp logging code.
30 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
31 to set the window title.

337.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
34 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
35 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
36 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
37 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
38 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
39 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
40 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
41 and much much more.
42 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
43 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
44 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
45 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
46 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
47 setuid/setgid.
48 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
49 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
50 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
51 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
52 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
53 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
54 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
55 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
56 compatible, and not really small either.
57 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
58 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
59 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
60 to crashes.
61 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
62 colours.
63 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
64 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.

67 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
68 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
69 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
70 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
71 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
72 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
73 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
74 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
75 by Mikachu).
11 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more 76 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
12 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback, 77 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
13 menus, tabs etc. See the urxvtperl manpage. 78 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
79 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
80 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
81 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
14 - fix directory permissions on install. 82 - fix directory permissions on install.
15 - improved sched_yield support. 83 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
84 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
85 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
86 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
87 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.

19 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by 91 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
