156.2 149.0
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 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
18 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
19 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
20 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
21 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
22 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
23 - applied many patches by Emanuele Giaquinta that clean the code up
24 and fix more bugs in the utmp logging code.
25 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
26 to set the window title.

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

616.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
62 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
63 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
64 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
65 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
66 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
67 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
68 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
69 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
70 by Mikachu).
71 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
72 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
73 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
74 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
75 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
76 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
77 - fix directory permissions on install.
78 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
79 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
80 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
81 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
82 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
83
846.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
85 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
86 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
87 Chuck Blake.
88 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
89 obscure the mouse cursor position.
16 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly 90 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
17 returns the callback result. Reported by darix. 91 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
92 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
93 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
94 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
95 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
96 transfer efficiency.
97 - further minor cleanups.
