20TODO: coloured pastebin 24 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
21TODO: mabbe unlink the RXVT_SOCKET on exit? 25 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
26 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
27 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
28 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
29 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
30 to disable both scaling and tiling.
31 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
32 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
33 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
34 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
35 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
36 in the next release.
37 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
38 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
39 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
40 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
41 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
42 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
43 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
44 Filardo).
45 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
46 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
47 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
48 the cell size.
49 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
50 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
51 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
52 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
53 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
54 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
55 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
56 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
57 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
58 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
59 (Bob Farrell).
60 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
61 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
62 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
63 Pohlack).
64 - Support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
65 Michael Stapelberg).
66 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
67 - Fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
68 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
69 edge (Mikachu).

719.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
72 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
73 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
74 support the UTF8_STRING target.
75 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
76 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
77 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
78 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
79 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
80 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
81 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
82 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
83 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
84 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
85
869.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
87 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
88 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
89 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
90 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
91 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
92 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
93 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
94 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
95 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
96 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
97 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
98 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
99 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
100 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
101 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
102 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
103 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
104 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
105 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
106 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
107 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
108 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
109 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
110 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
111 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
112 with gcc.
113 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
114 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
115 - document 'thickness' resource.
116 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
117 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
118 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
119 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
120 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
121 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
122 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
123 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
124 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
125 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
126 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
127
1289.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
129 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
130 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
131 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
132 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
133 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
134 failures with gcc 4.5.
135 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
136 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
137 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
138 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
139 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
140 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
141 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
142 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
143 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
144 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
145 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
146 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
147 and has fewer limitations.
148 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
149 startup for the upper left corner.
150 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
151 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
152 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
153 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
154 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
155 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
156 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
157 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
158 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
159 - fix build on XFree86.
160 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
161 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
162 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
163 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
164
1659.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
166 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.

171 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
172 - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta).
173 - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta).
174 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
175 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
176 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
177 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
178 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
179 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
180 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
181 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
182 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
183 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
184 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
185 characters other than first one in the selected cell
186 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
187 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
188 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
189 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
190 (found by Mikachu).
191 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
192 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
193 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
194 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
195 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
196 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
197 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
198 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
199 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
200 for 256 colours.
201 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
202 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
203 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
204 88*88 possible pairs.
205 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
206 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
207 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
208 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
209 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
210 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
211 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
212 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
213 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
214 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
215 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
216 backspacekey was given.
217 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
218 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
219 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
220 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
221 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
222 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
223
2249.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
225 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
226 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
227 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
228 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
229 Mikachu).
230 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
231 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
232 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
233 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
234 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
235 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
236 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
237 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
238 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
239 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
240 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
241 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
242 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
243 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
244 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
245 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
246 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
247 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
248 - update to libptytty 1.3.
249 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
250 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
251 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
252 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
253 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
254 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
255 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
256 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
257 in need of fixing. go figure.
258 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
259 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
260 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
261 the new ->selection_screen method.

270 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
271 - updates libev to 3.48.
272 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
273 when a window was closed.
274 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
275 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
276 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
277 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
278 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
279 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
280 makes copy&paste work.
281 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
282 no longer apply.
283 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
284 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
285 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
286 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
287 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
288 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
289 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
290 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
291 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
292 the only known workaround.
293 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
294 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
295 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
296 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
297 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
298 disabling size hints.
299 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
300 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
301 as mouse reporting.
302 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
303 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
304 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
305 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
306 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
307 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
308 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
309 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
310 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
311 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
312 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
313 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
314

321 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
322 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
323 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
324 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
325 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
326 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
327 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
328 help working window managers as well.
23 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata). 329 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
330 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
24 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd. 331 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.

335 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
336 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
