42 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
43 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
44 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
45 same height but different ascent.
46 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
47 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
48 - when xft support was compiled in, color queries erroneously returned
49 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
50 when calculating faded colors. alpha is now divided out when possible,
51 which is more correct but loses color resolution.
52 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
53 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
54 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
55 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
56 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
57 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
58 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
59 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
60 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
61 but not documented.
62 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
63 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
64 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
65 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
66 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
67 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
68 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
69 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
70 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
71 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
72 associated to a matched pattern.
73 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
74 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
75 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
76 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
77 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
78 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
79 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
80 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
81 by Thomas Otto).
82 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
83 way properly.
84 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
85 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
86 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
87 containing a space and with the same bg and fg color, red hat bug
88 #830236.
89 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
90 window/popup has been destroyed already.
91 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
92 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolor
93 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
94 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
95 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
96 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
97 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
98 simpler and actually more correct code.
99 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolor visuals.
100 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
101 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
102 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
103 frame buffers).
104 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
105 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
106 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
107
1089.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
109 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
110 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
111 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
112 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
113 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
114 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
115 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
116 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
117 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
118 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
119 the CLIPBOARD selection.
120 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
121 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
122 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
123 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
124 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
125 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
126
1279.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
128 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
129 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
130 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
131 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
132 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
133 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
134 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
135 function.
136 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
137 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
138
1399.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
140 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
141
1429.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
143 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
144 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
145 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
146 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
147 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
148 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
149 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
150 Münnich).
151 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
152 are disabled.
153
1549.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
155 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
156 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
157 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
158 Hemmer).
159 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
160 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
161 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
162 patch by Jan Larres).
163 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
164 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
165 as diagnosed by clang.
166 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
167 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
168 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
169 nickfailure@gmail.com).
170 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
171 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
172 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
173 for details.
174 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
175 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
176 which show up in -help etc.
177 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
178 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
179 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
180 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
181 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
182 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
183 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
184 - remove support for libafterimage.
185 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
186 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
187 libptytty instead.
188 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
189 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
190 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
191 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
192 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
193
1949.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
195 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
196 thinks thats an error.
197 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
198 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
199 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
200 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
201 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
202 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
203 and destination in composite operations.
204 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
205 for tabs.
206 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
207 Sung Pae).
208 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
209 - fix -C option on solaris.
210
2119.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
212 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
213 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
214 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
215 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
216 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
217 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
218 to disable both scaling and tiling.
219 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
220 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
221 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
222 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
223 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
224 in the next release.
225 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
226 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
227 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
228 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
229 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
230 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
231 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
232 Filardo).
233 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
234 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
235 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
236 the cell size.
237 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
238 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
239 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
240 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
241 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
242 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
243 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
244 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
245 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
246 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
247 (Bob Farrell).
248 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
249 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
250 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
251 Pohlack).
252 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
253 Michael Stapelberg).
254 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
255 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
256 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
257 edge (Mikachu).
258 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
259 handle exceptions better.
260 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
261 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
262
2639.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
264 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
265 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
266 support the UTF8_STRING target.
267 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
268 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
269 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
270 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
271 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
272 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
273 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
274 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
275 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
276 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
277
2789.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
279 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
280 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
281 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
24 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual 282 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
