429.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
43 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
44 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
45 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
46 same height but different ascent.
47 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
48 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
49 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
50 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
51 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
52 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
53 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
54 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
55 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
56 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
57 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
58 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
59 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
60 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
61 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
62 but not documented.
63 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
64 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
65 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
66 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
67 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
68 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
69 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
70 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
71 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
72 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
73 associated to a matched pattern.
74 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
75 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
76 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
77 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
78 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
79 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
80 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
81 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
82 by Thomas Otto).
83 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
84 way properly.
85 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
86 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
87 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
88 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
89 #830236.
90 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
91 window/popup has been destroyed already.
92 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
93 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
94 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
95 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
96 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
97 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
98 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
99 simpler and actually more correct code.
100 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
101 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
102 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
103 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
104 frame buffers).
105 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
106 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
107 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
108
1099.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
110 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
111 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
112 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
113 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
114 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
115 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
116 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
117 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
118 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
119 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
120 the CLIPBOARD selection.
121 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
122 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
123 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
124 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
125 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
126 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
127
1289.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
129 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
130 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
131 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
132 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
133 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
134 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
135 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
136 function.
137 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
138 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
139
1409.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
141 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
142
1439.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
144 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
145 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
146 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
147 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
148 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
149 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
150 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
151 Münnich).
152 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
153 are disabled.
154
1559.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
156 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
157 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
158 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
159 Hemmer).
160 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
161 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
162 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
163 patch by Jan Larres).
164 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
165 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
166 as diagnosed by clang.
167 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
168 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
169 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
170 nickfailure@gmail.com).
171 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
172 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
173 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
174 for details.
175 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
176 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
177 which show up in -help etc.
178 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
179 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
180 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
181 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
182 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
183 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
184 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
185 - remove support for libafterimage.
186 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
187 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
188 libptytty instead.
189 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
190 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
191 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
192 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
193 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
194
1959.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
196 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
197 thinks thats an error.
198 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
199 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
200 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
201 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
202 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
203 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
204 and destination in composite operations.
205 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
206 for tabs.
207 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
208 Sung Pae).
