3TODO: move pty/tty handling into a fork'ed server and drop all privs 3TODO: xcopyarea pass broken, fix and improve
4TODO: harmonize --disable-options into position-dependent options. 4TODO: event mechanism that replaces on_user_command with something more scalable.
5TODO: after requesting the selection and getting a timeout, no further requests will be sent. 5TODO: slipwheeling needs a keyboard grab to get key release events.
6TODO: overlays collide with the way the out-of-focus cursor is being drawn
6TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts 7TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts, pango!
7TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc. 8TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
8TODO: http://www120.pair.com/mccarthy/nextstep/intro.htmld/Workspace.html is the correct nextstep look. 9TODO: slow drag selection on remote display - other things seem fast (rxvt illness, motion hints?)
9TODO: clarify and get rid of SMOOTH_REFRESH etc. 10TODO: better resource handling for tabbar in -pe tabbed.
10WISH: OnTheSpot editing, or maybe switch to miiiiiiif. or maybe use perl and an overlay... 11WISH: investigate -pe tabbed -g 80x25 being 23 not 24 or 25 lines
11WISH: just for fun, do shade and tint with XRender. 12 => when setting the constraints, the wm might (correctly)
13 resize the outer window, which might result in a smaller window overall.
14 or something like that. guys, send me a patch.
15WISH: coloured pastebin
16WISH: load system-wide config file even if we don't have one
17WISH: look into XAddConnectionWatch, does anybody need that?
12WISH: support tex fonts 18DUMB: support tex fonts
19TODO: decrqm http://ue.tst.eu/71d7dbd1fcfeaa7d2a4b96eb957d570c.txt
20TODO: perl-shell-window? perl-unix-socket?
21TODO: command line editing when icanon?
13 22
149.0 23TODO: split ROW into a ROW_fast (0..total*2-1) and ROW macros?
15TODO: scroll lines into scrollback when tscroll==0, regardless of bscrol 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 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
33 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
34 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
35 the cell size.
36 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
37 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
38 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
39 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
40 - Fix compilation on systems with bsd style utmp and no utmpx,
41 such as openbsd.
42 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
43 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
44 (Bob Farrell).
45
469.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
47 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
48 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
49 support the UTF8_STRING target.
50 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
51 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
52 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
53 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
54 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
55 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
56 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
57 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
58 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
59 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
60
619.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
62 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
63 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
64 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
65 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
66 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
67 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
68 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
69 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
70 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
71 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
72 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
73 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
74 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
75 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
76 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
77 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
78 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
79 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
80 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
81 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
82 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
83 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
84 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
85 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
86 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
87 with gcc.
88 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
89 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
90 - document 'thickness' resource.
91 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
92 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
93 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
94 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
95 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
96 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
97 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
98 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
99 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
100 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
101 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
102
1039.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
104 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
105 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
106 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
107 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
108 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
109 failures with gcc 4.5.
110 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
111 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
112 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
113 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
114 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
115 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
116 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
117 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
118 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
119 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
120 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
121 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
122 and has fewer limitations.
123 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
124 startup for the upper left corner.
125 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
126 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
127 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
128 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
129 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
130 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
131 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
132 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
133 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
134 - fix build on XFree86.
135 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
136 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
137 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
138 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
139
1409.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
141 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
142 - the bestest release ever.
143 - it was verified that urxvt handles µ and μ correctly.
144 - add support for blending and blurring with XRender (Emanuele Giaquinta).
145 - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta).
146 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
147 - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta).
148 - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta).
149 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
150 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
151 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
152 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
153 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
154 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
155 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
156 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
157 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
158 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
159 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
160 characters other than first one in the selected cell
161 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
162 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
163 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
164 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
165 (found by Mikachu).
166 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
167 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
168 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
169 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
170 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
171 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
172 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
173 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
174 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
175 for 256 colours.
176 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
177 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
178 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
179 88*88 possible pairs.
180 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
181 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
182 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
183 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
184 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
185 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
186 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
187 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
188 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
189 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
190 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
191 backspacekey was given.
192 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
193 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
194 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
195 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
196 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
197 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
198
1999.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
200 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
201 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
202 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
203 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
204 Mikachu).
205 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
206 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
207 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
208 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
209 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
210 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
211 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
212 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
213 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
214 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
215 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
216 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
217 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
218 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
219 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
220 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
221 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
222 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
223 - update to libptytty 1.3.
224 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
225 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
226 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
227 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
228 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
229 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
230 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
231 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
232 in need of fixing. go figure.
233 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
234 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
235 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
236 the new ->selection_screen method.
237 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
238 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
239 - fix printpipe data output (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
240 - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection.
241 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.
242 - updated compose tables to unicode 5.2.0.
243
2449.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
245 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
246 - updates libev to 3.48.
247 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
248 when a window was closed.
249 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
250 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
251 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
252 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
253 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
254 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
255 makes copy&paste work.
256 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
257 no longer apply.
258 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
259 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
260 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
261 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
262 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
263 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
264 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
265 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
266 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
267 the only known workaround.
268 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
269 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
270 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
271 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
272 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
273 disabling size hints.
274 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
275 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
276 as mouse reporting.
277 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
278 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
279 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
280 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
281 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
282 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
283 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
284 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
285 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
286 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
287 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
288 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
289
2909.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
291 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
292 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
293 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
294 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
295 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
296 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
297 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
298 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
299 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
300 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
301 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
302 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
303 help working window managers as well.
304 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
305 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
306 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
307 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
308 from the toplevel window to the children.
309 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
310 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
311 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
312 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
313
3149.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
315 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
316 - fix build with !xft.
317 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
318
3199.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
320 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
321 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
322 received" problem, again :)
323 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
324
3259.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
326 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
327 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
328 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
329 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
330 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
331 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
332 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
333 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
334 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
335 channels or background images are used.
336 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
337 till the first event arrives. or so.
338 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
339 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
340 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
341 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
342 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
343 resets the terminal.
344 - scrollbar code cleanups.
345 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
346 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
347 - updated to libev 3.0.
348
3498.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
350 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
351 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
352 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
353 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
354 would not clear it visually in another.
355 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
356 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
357 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
358 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
359 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
360 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
361
3628.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
363 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
364 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
365 effects.
366 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
367 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
368 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
369 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
370 text was visible.
371 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
372 some minor improvements.
373 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
374 display and not once per terminal window.
375 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
376
3778.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
378 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
379 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
380 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
381
3828.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
383 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
384 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
385 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
386 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
387 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
388 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
389 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
390
3918.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
392 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
393
3948.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
395 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
396 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
397 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
398 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
399 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
400 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
401 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
402 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
403 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
404 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
405 - parallel builds should work once more.
406
4078.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
408 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
409 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
410 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
411 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
412 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
413 missing DISPLAY.
414 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
415 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
416 - updated io_manager.
417
4188.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
419 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
420 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
421 /usr/X11R6/lib.
422 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
423 patch by Sasha Vasko.
424 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
425 (patch by Philip Paeps).
426 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
427 (patch by Mikachu).
428 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
429 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
430 digit (exg).
431 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
432 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
433 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
434 extension (tpope).
435 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
436 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
437 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
438 problems.
439
4408.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
441 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
442 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
443 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
444 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
445 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
446 (found by Aiviru).
447 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
448 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
449 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
450 case to work around for :/
451 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
452 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
453 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
454 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
455 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
456 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
457 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
458 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
459 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
460 Paskevich).
461 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
462 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
463 - update libptytty.
464 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
465 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
466 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
467 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
468 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
469 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
470 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
471 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
472 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
473
4748.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
475 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
476 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
477 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
478 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
479 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
480 Reported by Takano Akio.
481 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
482 reported by exg.
483 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
484 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
485 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
486 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
487
4888.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
489 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
490 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
491 circumstances (reported by exg).
492 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
493 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
494 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
495 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
496 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
497 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
498 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
499 - update to libptytty-1.0.
500 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
501 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
502 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
503 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
504 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
505 bug #143985).
506 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
507 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
508 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
509 - manpage fix by exg.
510
5117.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
512 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
513 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
514 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
515 it does! :->
516 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
517 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
518
5197.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
520 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
521 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
522 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
523 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
524 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
525 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
526 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
527 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
528 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
529 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
530 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
531 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
532 uppercase character.
533 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
534 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
535 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
536 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
537 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
538 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
539 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
540 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
541 generic osc_seq.
542 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
543 were invoked recursively.
544 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
545 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
546 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
547 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
548 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
549 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
550 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
551 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
552 by omatunto_.
553 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
554 follow C++ closely enough.
555 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
556 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
557 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
558 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
559
5607.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
561 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
562 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
563 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
564 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
565 click, and eats the click.
566 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
567 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
568 refresh bugs please.
569 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
570 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
571 improve size hint setting.
572 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
573 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
574 to correctly position their preedit window.
575 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
576 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
577 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
578 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
579 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
580 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
581 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
582 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
583 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
584 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
585 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
586 (reported by Paco-Paco).
587 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
588 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
589 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
590
5917.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
592 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
593 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
594 resource value.
595 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
596 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
597 relevant tab window.
598 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
599 (initial patch by hednod).
600 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
601 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
602 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
603 the benefit of automove-background.
604 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
605 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
606 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
607 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
608 __linux__.
609 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
610 the colour components.
611 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
612 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
613 - more colour rtt optimisations.
614 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
615 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
616 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
617 - minor libptytty update.
618
6197.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
620 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
621 detection:
622 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
623 - overlap detection was improved.
624 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
625 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
626 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
627 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
628 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
629 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
630 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
631 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
632 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
633 broken.
634 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
635 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
636 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
637 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
638 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
639 (patch by Paco-Paco).
640 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
641 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
642 an "[alpha]" prefix.
643 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
644 transparent. Long Live Xft!
645 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
646 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
647 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
648 on a pseudocolor screen.
649 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
650 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
651 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
652 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
653 - small configure updates.
654 - further RTT optimisations.
655 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
656 the debian package.
657 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
658 but much newer than the old one.
659
6607.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
661 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
662 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
663 - small configure updates for libptytty.
664 - fixed version options: line output.
665 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
666
6677.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
668 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
669 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
670 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
671 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
672 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
673 selection extension.
674 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
675 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
676 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
677 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
678 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
679 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
680 needs the careful rendering mode.
681 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
682 too wide and needs careful mode.
683 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
684 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
685 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
686 atoms only once per display.
687 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
688 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
689 xterm.
690
6917.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
692 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
693 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
694 getenv (reproducible: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
695 ctrl-shift-672c).
696 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
697 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
698 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
699 the primary screen.
700 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
701 could lead to an assertion failure.
702 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
703 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
704 via mouse clicks.
705 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
706 with shift - mouse button 2.
707 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
708 in non-synthetic events.
709 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
710 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
711 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
712 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
713 whole urxvt[d] process.
714 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
715 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
716 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
717 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
718
7197.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
720 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
721 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
722 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
723 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
724 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
725 special privileges.
726 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
727 itself.
728 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
729 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
730 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
731 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
732 similar stuff.
733 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
734 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
735 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
16 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct. 736 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
737 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
738 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
739 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
740 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
741 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
742 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
743 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
744 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
745 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
746 (Emanuele Giaquinta=exg).
747 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
748 to set the window title.
749 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
750 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
751 at the wrong time.
752 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
753 anymore.
754 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
755 - nuked QNX support.
756 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
757 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
758 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
759 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
