319.16
32 - the "so much new stuff you eyes will pop out" release.
33 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
34 - remove support for libafterimage.
35 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
36 Hemmer).
37 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
38 patch by Jan Larres).
39 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
40 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
41 as diagnosed by clang.
42 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
43 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
44 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
45 nickfailure@gmail.com).
46 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
47 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
48 libptytty instead.
49 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
50 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
51 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
52 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
53 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
54 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
55 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
56 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
57 which show up in -help etc.

599.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
60 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
61 thinks thats an error.
62 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
63 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
64 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
65 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
66 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
67 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
68 and destination in composite operations.
69 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
70 for tabs.
71 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
72 Sung Pae).
73 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
74 - fix -C option on solaris.

97 Filardo).

99 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
100 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
101 the cell size.
