25 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
26 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
27 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
28 - Fix compilation on systems with bsd style utmp and no utmpx,
29 such as openbsd.
30
319.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
32 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
33 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
34 support the UTF8_STRING target.
35 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
36 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
37 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
38 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
39 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
40 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
41 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
42 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
43 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
44 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
45
469.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
47 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
48 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
49 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
50 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
51 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
52 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
53 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
54 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
55 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
56 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
57 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
58 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
59 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
60 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
61 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
62 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
63 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
64 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
65 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
66 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
67 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
68 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
69 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
70 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
71 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
72 with gcc.
73 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
74 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
75 - document 'thickness' resource.
76 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
77 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
78 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
79 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
80 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
81 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
82 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
83 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
84 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
85 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
86 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
87
889.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
89 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
90 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
91 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
92 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
93 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
94 failures with gcc 4.5.
95 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
96 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
97 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
98 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
99 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
100 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
101 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
102 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
103 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
104 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
105 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
106 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
107 and has fewer limitations.
108 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
109 startup for the upper left corner.
110 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
111 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
112 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
113 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
114 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
115 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
116 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
117 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
118 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
119 - fix build on XFree86.
120 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
121 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
122 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
123 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
124

138 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
139 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
140 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
141 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
142 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
143 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
144 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
145 characters other than first one in the selected cell
146 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
147 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
148 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
149 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
150 (found by Mikachu).
151 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
152 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
153 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
154 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
155 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
156 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
157 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
158 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
159 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
160 for 256 colours.
161 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
162 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
163 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
164 88*88 possible pairs.
165 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
166 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
167 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
168 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
169 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
170 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
171 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
172 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
173 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
174 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
175 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
176 backspacekey was given.
177 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.

181 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
182 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
183
1849.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
185 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
186 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
187 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
188 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
189 Mikachu).
190 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
191 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
192 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
193 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
194 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
195 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
196 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
197 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
198 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
199 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
200 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
201 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
202 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
203 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
204 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
205 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).

212 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
213 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
214 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
215 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
216 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
217 in need of fixing. go figure.
218 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
219 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
220 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
