52
53 - implement a fix for CVE-2022-4170 (reported and analyzed by David Leadbeater).
54 While present in version 9.30, it should not be exploitable. It is exploitable
55 in versions 9.25 and 9.26, at least, and allows anybody controlling output to
56 the terminal to execute arbitrary code in the urxvt process.
57 - the background extension no longer requires off focus fading support
58 to be compiled in.
59 - the confirm-paste extension now offers a choice betwene pasting the original
60 or a sanitized version, and also frees up memory used to store the paste text
61 immediately.
62 - fix compiling without frills.
63 - fix rewrapMode: never.
64 - fix regression that caused urxvt to no longer emit responses
65 to OSC color queries other than OSC 4 ones.
66 - fix regression that caused urxvt to no longer process OSC 705.
67 - restore CENTURY to be 1900 to "improve" year parsing in urclock (or at
68 least go back to the old interpretation) (based on an analysis
69 by Tommy Pettersson).
70 - exec_async (used e.g. by the matcher extension to spawn processes) now
71 sets the URXVT_EXT_WINDOWID variable to the window id of the terminal.
72 - implement -fps option/refreshRate resource to change the default 60 Hz
73 maximum refresh limiter. I always wanted an fps option, but had to
74 wait for a user requesting it.
75
769.30 Sat 27 Nov 2021 21:07:09 CET
77 - the background extension did not initialise properly when automatically
78 loaded via the OSC.
79 - new "on_attach" hook type implemented, to initialise late-loading
80 extensions.
81
829.29 Mon 22 Nov 2021 18:07:14 CET
83 - libptytty (http://dist.schmorp.de/libptytty/) is now a required
84 external dependency.
85 - enable confirm-paste extension by default, can be disabled by e.g.
86 URxvt.perl-ext: -confirm-paste
87 - Key bindings specified with the -keysym option or with resources of
88 the form URxvt*keysym work again. Such resources, as opposed to
89 resources of the form URxvt.keysym, were not officially allowed but
90 accepted, so ignoring them is considered a regression.
91 - new option/resource -rm/rewrapMode, which sets the line rewrap
92 mode to auto, never or always.
93 - new option/resource -dpb/disablePasteBrackets, which can be used to
94 disable bracketed paste mode sequences, as more and more programs
95 abuse these sequences (typically in the name of security, but these
96 sequences are not improving security). Also, bracketed paste mode
97 is now under frills.
98 - add manpage for urclock.
99 - confirm-paste wrongly considered brackets as ctrlchars (patch by
100 Jakub Wilk, debian bug #995244).
101 - if urxvt cannot detect a good estimate for font width (because a font does
102 not contain latin characters at all for example), it will now fall
103 back to xft's max_advance_width, which works well with some fonts. It
104 currently will warn about this.
105 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat
106 them as zero-width characters.
107 - change combining character architecture to allow fonts to handle
108 combining sequences on their own. This could allow future renderers
109 to be more intelligent about these sequences.
110 - use the previous enhancement to allow unicode characters outside of the
111 BMP to be rendered even without --enable-unicode3, as long as an
112 xft with the character is configured.
113 It's recommended to stay with disabled unicode3 even more now.
114 - freetype/xft have been verified to return nonsensical offsets for
115 combining characters. urxvt tries to compensate to some extent,
116 but diacritics will be slightly off in many cases, and far off in
117 some cases (e.g. input mono).
118 - when checking for overlap/careful handling, take non-basefont
119 character shifts into account.
120 - extensions can now request autoloading on OSC and Perl OSC sequences,
121 implement this for the background, clipboard-osc and overlay-osc
122 extensions.
123 - the background extension will now be autoloaded when the OSC 20 or 705
124 sequence is received.
125 - added OSC 776 sequence to return character cell width, height and font
126 ascent, which is useful when using urxvt as slave to calculate window
127 size form or to row/column count.
128 - matcher extension documentation now points out some requirements for
129 regular expressions. the default url matching regex will now try
130 to match IRLs in addition to URLs.
131 - The view_start perl method now scrolls to the bottom also when the
132 argument is greater than 0.
133 - eval scroll actions now scroll to the bottom when scrolling down and
134 there are less lines to scroll than the ones requested (reported by
135 Stephen Talley).
136 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions.
137 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive
138 loading.
139 - update precompose table to unicode 13.0.
140 - update charset conversion tables to perl 5.32 (this only affected
141 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode).
142 - unicode characters > 0x100000 were not handled correctly w.r.t.
143 font rendering.
144 - replace bitstream vera by dejavu sans, as it has replaced the former
145 almost everywhere.
146 - urxvt will now try tic -x first and only fall back to tic without -x
147 when tic -x fails.
148 - fix urclock not erasing the old date on the clock face, causing
149 overdraw, plus a host of other small fixes and improvements.
150 - shave off over 1K of code size from urclock by replacing the sine table
151 with a slightly less accurate fixed point approximation.
152 - do not specify indentation with =over in pod, this is no longer
153 needed with semi-modern pod tools and gives the formatter more
154 stylistic freedom.
155 - background extension did not set the "size-sensitive" flag
156 when repeat mode wasn't normal.
157 - extensions are now subjected to "use strict 'subs'".
158 - avoid crashing when xft successfully opens a font but then somehow
159 can't lock the face.
160 - locale_decode/encode api methods now pass through undef unchanged.
161 - fix undefined behaviour in the perl hook function, as diagnosed by clang.
162
1639.26 Fri May 14 19:14:14 CEST 2021
164 - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly
165 not packaged.
166
1679.25 Fri May 14 15:51:36 CEST 2021
168 - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to
169 remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as
170 urclock.
171 - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105,
172 freebsd bug #234276.
173 - do not destruct perl on exit anymore: this might fail for a variety of
174 reasons, and takes unnecessary time.
175 - remove any macros from urxvtperl manpage(s), should fix debian
176 bug 858385.
177 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
178 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
179 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
180 ext if any bg image resource/option is present (for OSC sequences to
181 work you need to enable it explicitly). The old bg image
182 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
183 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
184 - confirm-paste now checks for any ctlchars, not just newlines.
185 - searchable scrollback will now ignore bracketed paste mode sequences
186 (prompted by Daniel Gröber's patch).
187 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in
188 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit
189 program can be used as a substitute).
190 - perl didn't parse rgba colours specified as an array correctly,
191 only allowing 0 and 100% intensity for each component (this affected
192 fill and tint).
193 - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle
194 multipart resources (such as "*background.expr"), for the benefit
195 of autoloading perl extensions.
196 - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security
197 implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5,
198 and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known.
199 - work around API change breakage in perl 5.28, based on a patch by
200 Roman Bogorodskiy.
201 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
202 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
203 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
204 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
205 - xterm SGR mouse mode.
206 - implement DECRQM. Patch by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
207 - add missing color index parameter to OSC 4 response. Patch
208 by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
209 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
210 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
211 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
212 - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression.
213 - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video
214 is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it
215 is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler).
216 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
217 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
218 - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions
219 (patch by Rastislav Barlik).
220 - fix a whole slew of const sillyness, unfortunately forced upon
221 us by ISO C++.
222 - update to libecb 0x00010006.
223 - disable all thread support in ecb.h as we presumably don't need it.
224 - slightly improve Makefile source dependencies.
225 - work around bugs in newer Pod::Xhtml versions (flags incorrect formatting codes
226 in xhtml/html sections but does not interpret correct ones).
227
2289.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
229 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
230 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
231 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
232 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
233 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
234 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
235 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
236 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
237 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
238 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
239 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
240 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
241 Devin J. Pohly).
242 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
243 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
244 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
245 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
246 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
247 action now properly rebinds the key.
248 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
249 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
250 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
251 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
252 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
253 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
254 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
255 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
256 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
257 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
258 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
259 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
260 window.
261 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
262 to a key combination.
263 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
264 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
265 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
266 - this version has ben verified to work with perl 5.8.3.
267
2689.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
269 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
270 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
271 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
272 same height but different ascent.
273 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
274 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
275 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
276 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
277 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
278 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
279 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
280 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
281 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
282 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
283 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
284 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
285 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
286 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
287 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
288 but not documented.
289 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
290 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
291 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
292 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
293 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
294 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
295 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
296 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
297 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
298 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
299 associated to a matched pattern.
300 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
301 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
302 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
303 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
304 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
305 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
306 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
307 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
308 by Thomas Otto).
309 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
310 way properly.
311 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
312 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
313 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
314 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
315 #830236.
316 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
317 window/popup has been destroyed already.
318 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
319 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
320 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
321 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
322 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
323 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
324 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
325 simpler and actually more correct code.
326 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
327 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
328 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
329 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
330 frame buffers).
331 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
332 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
333 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
334
3359.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
336 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
337 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
338 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
339 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
340 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
341 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
342 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
343 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
344 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
345 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
346 the CLIPBOARD selection.
347 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
348 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
349 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
350 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
351 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
352 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
353
3549.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
355 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
356 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
357 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
358 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
359 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
360 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
361 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
362 function.
363 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
364 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
365
3669.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
367 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
368
3699.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
370 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
371 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
372 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
373 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
374 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
375 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
376 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
377 Münnich).
378 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
379 are disabled.
380
3819.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
382 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
383 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
384 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
385 Hemmer).
386 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
387 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
388 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
389 patch by Jan Larres).
390 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
391 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
392 as diagnosed by clang.
393 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
394 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
395 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
396 nickfailure@gmail.com).
397 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
398 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
399 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
400 for details.
401 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
402 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
403 which show up in -help etc.
404 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
405 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
406 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
407 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
408 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
409 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
410 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
411 - remove support for libafterimage.
412 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
413 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
414 libptytty instead.
415 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
416 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
417 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
418 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
419 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
420
4219.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
422 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
423 thinks thats an error.
424 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
425 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
426 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
427 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
428 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
429 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
430 and destination in composite operations.
431 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
432 for tabs.
433 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
434 Sung Pae).
435 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
436 - fix -C option on solaris.
437
4389.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
439 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
440 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
441 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
