309.16
31 - the "alpha" release.
32 - remove support for libafterimage.
33 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
34 Hemmer).
35 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
36 patch by Jan Larres).
37 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
38 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
39 as diagnosed by clang.
40 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
41 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
42 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
43 nickfailure@gmail.com).
44 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
45 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
46 libptytty instead.
47 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
48 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
49 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
50 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
51 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
52
539.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
54 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
55 thinks thats an error.
56 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
57 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
58 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
59 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
60 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
61 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
62 and destination in composite operations.
63 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
64 for tabs.
65 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
66 Sung Pae).
67 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
68 - fix -C option on solaris.

709.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
71 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
72 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
73 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
74 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
75 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
76 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
77 to disable both scaling and tiling.
78 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
79 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
80 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
81 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
82 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
83 in the next release.
84 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
85 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
86 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
87 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
88 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
89 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
90 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
91 Filardo).
92 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
93 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
94 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
95 the cell size.
23 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible 96 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
24 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137 97 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137

101 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
102 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
103 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
104 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
105 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
106 (Bob Farrell).
107 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
108 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
109 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
110 Pohlack).
111 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
112 Michael Stapelberg).
113 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
114 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
115 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
116 edge (Mikachu).
117 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
118 handle exceptions better.
119 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
120 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
