24 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
25 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
26 to disable both scaling and tiling.
27 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
28 been removed in favour of simple composable operations and
29 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
30 settings. Old operations are still parsed for backward
31 compatibility (Emanuele Giaquinta).
32 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
33 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
34 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
35 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
36 - Fix compilation on systems with bsd style utmp and no utmpx,
37 such as openbsd.
38
399.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
40 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
41 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
42 support the UTF8_STRING target.
43 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
44 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
45 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
46 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
47 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
48 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
49 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
50 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
51 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
52 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
53
549.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
55 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
56 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
57 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
58 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
59 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
60 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
61 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
62 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
63 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
64 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
65 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
66 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
67 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
68 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
69 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
70 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
71 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
72 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
73 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
74 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
75 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
76 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
77 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
78 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
79 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
80 with gcc.
81 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
82 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
83 - document 'thickness' resource.
84 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
85 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
86 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
87 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
88 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
89 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
90 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
91 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
92 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
93 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
94 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
95
969.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
97 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
98 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
99 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
100 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
101 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
102 failures with gcc 4.5.
103 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
104 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
105 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
106 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
107 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
108 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
109 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
110 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
111 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
112 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
113 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
114 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
115 and has fewer limitations.
116 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
117 startup for the upper left corner.
118 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
119 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
120 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
121 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
122 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
123 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
124 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
125 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
126 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
127 - fix build on XFree86.
128 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
129 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
130 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
131 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
132
1339.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
134 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.

143 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
144 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
145 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
146 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
147 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
148 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
149 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
150 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
151 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
152 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
153 characters other than first one in the selected cell
154 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
155 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
156 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
157 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
158 (found by Mikachu).
159 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
160 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
161 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
162 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
163 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
164 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
165 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
166 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
167 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
168 for 256 colours.
169 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
170 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
171 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
172 88*88 possible pairs.
173 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
174 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
175 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
176 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
177 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
178 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
179 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
180 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
181 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
182 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
183 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
184 backspacekey was given.
185 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
186 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
187 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
188 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
189 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
190 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
191
1929.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
193 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
194 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
195 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
196 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
197 Mikachu).
198 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
199 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
200 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
201 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
202 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
203 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
204 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
205 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
206 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
207 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
208 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
209 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
210 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
211 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
212 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
213 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
214 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
215 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).

217 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
218 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
219 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
220 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
221 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
222 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
223 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
224 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
225 in need of fixing. go figure.
226 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
227 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
228 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
229 the new ->selection_screen method.

241 when a window was closed.
242 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
243 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
244 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
245 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
246 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
247 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
248 makes copy&paste work.

250 no longer apply.
251 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.

256 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
257 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
258 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
259 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
260 the only known workaround.
261 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
262 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
263 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
264 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
265 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily

267 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
268 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
269 as mouse reporting.
270 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
271 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
272 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
273 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
274 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
275 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
276 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
