32 resets the terminal.
33 - scrollbar code cleanups.
34
358.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
36 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window

47
488.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
49 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
50 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
51 effects.
52 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
53 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
54 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
55 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
56 text was visible.
57 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
58 some minor improvements.
59 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
60 display and not once per terminal window.
61 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
62
638.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
64 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
65 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
66 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
67
688.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
69 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
70 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
71 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
72 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
73 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
74 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
75 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
76
778.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
78 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
79
808.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
81 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
82 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
83 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
84 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
85 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
86 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
87 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
88 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internaly using :root op in pixmap
89 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
90 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
91 - parallel builds should work once more.
92
938.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
94 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
95 - fix possible race betwen visual bell and poweron.

111 (patch by Philip Paeps).

120 extension (tpope).
121 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
122 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
123 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
124 problems.
125
1268.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
127 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
128 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
129 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
130 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
131 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
132 (found by Aiviru).
133 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
134 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
135 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
136 case to work around for :/
137 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
138 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
139 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
140 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
141 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
142 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
143 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
144 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
145 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
146 Paskevich).
147 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
148 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
149 - update libptytty.
150 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
151 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
152 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
153 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
154 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
155 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
156 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
157 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
158 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
159
1608.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
161 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
162 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
163 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
164 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
165 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
166 Reported by Takano Akio.
167 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
168 reported by exg.
169 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
170 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
171 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
172 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
173
1748.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
175 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
176 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
177 circumstances (reported by exg).
178 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
179 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
180 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
181 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
182 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
183 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
184 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
185 - update to libptytty-1.0.
186 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
187 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
188 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
189 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
190 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
191 bug #143985).
192 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
193 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
194 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
195 - manpage fix by exg.
196
1977.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
198 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
199 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
200 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
201 it does! :->
202 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
203 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
