28 | - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend |
|
|
29 | selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work |
|
|
30 | on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens). |
|
|
31 | - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the |
|
|
32 | characters other than first one in the selected cell |
|
|
33 | (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
34 | - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line |
|
|
35 | (found by Mikachu). |
|
|
36 | - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
37 | - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime |
|
|
38 | (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
39 | - reduce the number of custom bits to 4. |
|
|

|
|
41 | 9.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009 |
|
|
42 | - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char * |
|
|
43 | in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader. |
|
|
44 | - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters |
|
|
45 | was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by |
|
|
46 | Mikachu). |
|
|
47 | - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson. |
|
|
48 | - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on |
|
|
49 | systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon). |
|
|
50 | - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled |
|
|
51 | (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne). |
|
|
52 | - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal |
|
|
53 | input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
54 | - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every |
|
|
55 | refresh (reported by Mikachu). |
|
|
56 | - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being |
|
|
57 | recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/). |
|
|
58 | - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also, |
|
|
59 | try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name |
|
|
60 | (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/). |
|
|
61 | - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes |
|
|
62 | sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu). |
|
|
63 | - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages |
|
|
64 | is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell). |
|
|
65 | - update to libptytty 1.3. |
|
|
66 | - replace macosx-pastebin by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move |
|
|
67 | the old version to macosx-pastebin-native. |
|
|
68 | - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
69 | - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills. |
|
|
70 | - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API. |
|
|
71 | - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default |
|
|
72 | namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even |
|
|
73 | though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world |
|
|
74 | in need of fixing. go figure. |
|
|
75 | - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten). |
|
|
76 | - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen |
|
|
77 | to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using |
|
|
78 | the new ->selection_screen method. |
|
|
79 | - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT |
|
|
80 | (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
81 | - fix printpipe data output (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
82 | - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection. |
|
|
83 | - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease. |
|
|
84 | - updated compose tables to unicode 5.2.0. |
|
|
85 | |
|
|
86 | 9.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008 |
|
|
87 | - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap. |
|
|
88 | - updates libev to 3.48. |
|
|
89 | - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects |
|
|
90 | when a window was closed. |
|
|
91 | - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside |
|
|
92 | scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar). |
|
|
93 | - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts |
|
|
94 | when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar). |
|
|
95 | - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line |
|
|
96 | when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but |
|
|
97 | makes copy&paste work. |
|
|
98 | - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they |
|
|
99 | no longer apply. |
|
|
100 | - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out. |
|
|
101 | - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change. |
|
|
102 | - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa. |
|
|
103 | - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters. |
|
|
104 | - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
105 | - do some ยต-optimisations to the character fast path. |
|
|
106 | - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal |
|
|
107 | monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text. |
|
|
108 | - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking |
|
|
109 | the only known workaround. |
|
|
110 | - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt). |
|
|
111 | - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally, |
|
|
112 | to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks. |
|
|
113 | - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize |
|
|
114 | client windows on hint property updates by temporarily |
|
|
115 | disabling size hints. |
|
|
116 | - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init, |
|
|
117 | and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such |
|
|
118 | as mouse reporting. |
|
|
119 | - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in |
|
|
120 | tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts. |
|
|
121 | - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel |
|
|
122 | droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer. |
|
|
123 | - use current rendition style in DCH sequence. |
|
|
124 | - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset. |
|
|
125 | - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
126 | - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like. |
|
|
127 | - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing |
|
|
128 | overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves). |
|
|
129 | - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup |
|
|
130 | (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar). |
|
|
131 | |
|
|
132 | 9.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008 |
|
|
133 | - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory. |
|
|
134 | - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory. |
|
|
135 | - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant |
|
|
136 | header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz). |
|
|
137 | - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend. |
|
|
138 | with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems. |
|
|
139 | - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one |
|
|
140 | after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the |
|
|
141 | issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal |
|
|
142 | sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems. |
|
|
143 | - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around |
|
|
144 | broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should |
|
|
145 | help working window managers as well. |
|
|
146 | - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata). |
|
|
147 | - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K. |
|
|
148 | - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd. |
|
|
149 | - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources |
|
|
150 | from the toplevel window to the children. |
|
|
151 | - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries. |
|
|
152 | - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above. |
|
|
153 | - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY. |
|
|
154 | - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty. |
|
|
155 | |
|
|
156 | 9.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008 |
|
|
157 | - the "exg makes everybody happy" release. |
|
|
158 | - fix build with !xft. |
|
|
159 | - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great). |
|
|
160 | |
|
|
