14 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes. 22TODO: zero scorllback buffer should free memory
15 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken). 23TODO: kuake
16 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer. 24TODO: depth resource not working(?)
17 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number. 25TODO: fix the flaw in the url regex jost pointed out
18 - small configure updates. 26TODO: look into the selection hilight patch
19 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support. 27 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
20 - support rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa, #argb, #aarrggbb and 28 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
21 #aaaarrrrggggbbbb (yes, it did hurt) colour "names". 29 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
22 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100% 30 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
23 transparent. Long Live Xft! 31 generic osc_seq.
24 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use 32 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
25 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly. 33 were invoked recursively.
34 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
35 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
36 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
37 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarballe, it had no reason to be there
38 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
39 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
40 by omatunto_.
41 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
42 follow C++ closely enough.

45 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
46 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
47 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
48 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
49 click, and eats the click.
50 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
51 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
52 refresh bugs please.
53 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
54 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
55 improve size hint setting.
56 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
57 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
58 to correctly position their preedit window.
59 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
60 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
61 in empty spaces, but thats not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
62 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
63 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
64 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
65 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
66 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
67 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
68 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
69 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
70 (reported by Paco-Paco).
71 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
72 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
73 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
74
757.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
76 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
77 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
78 resource value.
79 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
80 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and keys events to th
81 relevant tab window.
82 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
83 (initial patch by hednod).
84 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
85 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
86 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
87 the benefit of automove-background.
88 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
89 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
90 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
91 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
92 __linux__.
93 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
94 the colour components.
95 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
96 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
97 - more colour rtt optimisations.
98 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
99 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
100 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
101 - minor libptytty update.

116 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
117 broken.
118 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.

40 of rgb:rr/gg/bb. 121 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
122 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
123 (patch by Paco-Paco).
124 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
125 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
126 an "[alpha]" prefix.
127 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
128 transparent. Long Live Xft!
129 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
130 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
131 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
132 on a pseudocolor screen.
133 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
134 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
