136.1
14TODO: is14755 feedback for all redn_t attributes
15TODO: trailing spaces rmeoval for rect selections
16 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
17 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
18 while the user still drags.
19 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
20 not drawn correctly.
21 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
22 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
23
246.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
25 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
26 - enable slow link support by default.
27 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
28 (also a bug in original rxvt).
29 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
30 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
31 partial patch).
32 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
33 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
34 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
35 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
36 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
37 - implement -hold option.
38 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
39 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
40 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
41 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
42 - slight overall speed improvements.
43 - considerably improved code clarity.
44 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
45 buffer.

475.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
48 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
49 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
50 (matters only for rxvtd).
51 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
52 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
53 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).

19 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other 65 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
20 windows. 66 windows.
67 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
68 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
69 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
70 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
71 - replaced INSTALL file.
