26 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
27 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
28 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).

30 till the first event arrives. or so.
31 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
32 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
33 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
34 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
35 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
36 resets the terminal.
37 - scrollbar code cleanups.
38
398.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
40 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window

51
528.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
53 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
54 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
55 effects.
56 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
57 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
58 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
59 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
60 text was visible.
61 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
62 some minor improvements.
63 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
64 display and not once per terminal window.
65 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
66
678.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
68 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
69 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
70 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
71
728.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
73 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
74 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
75 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
76 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
77 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
78 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
79 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
80
818.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
82 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
83
848.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
85 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
86 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
87 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
88 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
89 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
90 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
91 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
92 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internaly using :root op in pixmap
93 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
94 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
95 - parallel builds should work once more.
96
978.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
98 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
99 - fix possible race betwen visual bell and poweron.

112 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
113 patch by Sasha Vasko.
114 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
115 (patch by Philip Paeps).
116 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
117 (patch by Mikachu).
118 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
119 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last

124 extension (tpope).
125 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
126 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
127 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
128 problems.
129
1308.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
131 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
132 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
133 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
134 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
135 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
136 (found by Aiviru).
137 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
138 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
139 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
140 case to work around for :/
141 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
142 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
143 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
144 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
145 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
146 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
147 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
148 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
149 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
150 Paskevich).
151 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
152 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
153 - update libptytty.
154 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
155 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
156 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
157 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
158 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
159 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
160 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
161 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
162 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
163
1648.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
165 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
166 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
167 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
168 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
169 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
170 Reported by Takano Akio.
171 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
172 reported by exg.
173 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
174 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
175 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
176 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
177
1788.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
179 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
180 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
181 circumstances (reported by exg).
182 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
183 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
184 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
185 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
186 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
187 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
188 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
189 - update to libptytty-1.0.
190 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
191 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
192 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
193 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
194 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
195 bug #143985).
196 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
197 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
198 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
199 - manpage fix by exg.
200
2017.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
202 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
203 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
204 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
205 it does! :->
206 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
207 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
