24 | - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose. |
|
|
25 | If you need it, poke us and provide a use case. |
|
|
26 | - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual |
|
|
27 | supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha |
|
|
28 | (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
29 | - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client |
|
|
30 | such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak). |
|
|
31 | - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active |
|
|
32 | (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh). |
|
|
33 | - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection |
|
|
34 | extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme |
|
|
35 | slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463. |
|
|
36 | - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a |
|
|
37 | selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is |
|
|
38 | received. (Emanuele Giaquinta) |
|
|
39 | - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently |
|
|
40 | broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html). |
|
|
41 | - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys |
|
|
42 | were injected into an already-full pty input buffer. |
|
|
43 | - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage. |
|
|
44 | - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line |
|
|
45 | of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
46 | - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case |
|
|
47 | we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace |
|
|
48 | with gcc. |
|
|
49 | - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
50 | - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444. |
|
|
51 | - document 'thickness' resource. |
|
|
52 | - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible. |
|
|
53 | - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of |
|
|
54 | hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough. |
|
|
55 | - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste |
|
|
56 | (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
57 | - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup. |
|
|
58 | - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident). |
|
|
59 | - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished. |
|
|
60 | - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead, |
|
|
61 | silently drain the input (problem is well understood now). |
|
|
62 | - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands. |
|
|
63 | |
|
|
64 | 9.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010 |
|
|
65 | - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release. |
|
|
66 | - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct |
|
|
67 | (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
68 | - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option |
|
|
69 | count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the |
|
|
70 | failures with gcc 4.5. |
|
|
71 | - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support |
|
|
72 | is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from |
|
|
73 | both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private |
|
|
74 | dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of |
|
|
75 | pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one. |
|
|
76 | Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold |
|
|
77 | (based on patch by Jan Palus). |
|
|
78 | - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd. |
|
|
79 | - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly |
|
|
80 | set (reported by Michal Vaner). |
|
|
81 | - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode, |
|
|
82 | and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales |
|
|
83 | and has fewer limitations. |
|
|
84 | - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after |
|
|
85 | startup for the upper left corner. |
|
|
86 | - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of |
|
|
87 | dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals |
|
|
88 | are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
89 | - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested. |
|
|
90 | Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result |
|
|
91 | was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a |
|
|
92 | completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
93 | - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or |
|
|
94 | when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
95 | - fix build on XFree86. |
|
|
96 | - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements. |
|
|
97 | For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay. |
|
|
98 | - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe. |
|
|
99 | saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly. |

|
|
126 | (found by Mikachu). |
|
|
127 | - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to |
|
|
128 | highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
129 | - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of |
|
|
130 | highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|

|
|
132 | but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|

139 | - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all |
|
|
140 | 88*88 possible pairs. |
|
|
141 | - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in |
|
|
142 | the 9.07 release but had been forgotten. |
|
|
143 | - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a |
|
|
144 | character (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
145 | - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column, |
|
|
146 | working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing. |
|
|
147 | - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend |
|
|
148 | selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work |
|
|
149 | on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens). |
