41 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
42 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
43 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
44 action now properly rebinds the key.
45 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
46 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
47 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
48 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
49 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
50 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
51 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
52 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
53 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
54 window.
55
569.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
57 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
58 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
59 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
60 same height but different ascent.
61 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
62 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
63 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
64 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
65 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
66 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
67 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
68 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
69 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
70 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
71 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
72 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
73 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
74 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
75 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
76 but not documented.
77 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
78 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
79 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
80 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
81 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
82 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
83 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
84 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
85 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
86 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
87 associated to a matched pattern.
88 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
89 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
90 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
91 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
92 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
93 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
94 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
95 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
96 by Thomas Otto).
97 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
98 way properly.
99 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
100 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
101 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
102 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
103 #830236.
104 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
105 window/popup has been destroyed already.
106 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
107 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
108 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
109 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
110 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
111 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
112 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
113 simpler and actually more correct code.
114 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
115 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
116 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
117 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
118 frame buffers).
119 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
120 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
121 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
122
1239.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
124 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
125 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
126 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
127 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
128 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
129 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
130 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
131 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
132 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
133 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
134 the CLIPBOARD selection.
135 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
136 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
137 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
138 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
139 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
140 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
141
1429.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
143 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
144 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
145 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
146 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
147 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
148 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
149 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
150 function.
151 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
152 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
153
1549.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
155 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
156
1579.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
158 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
159 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
160 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
161 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
162 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
163 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
164 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
165 Münnich).
166 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
167 are disabled.
168
1699.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
170 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
171 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
172 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
173 Hemmer).
174 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
175 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
176 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
177 patch by Jan Larres).
178 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
179 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
180 as diagnosed by clang.
181 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
182 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
183 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
184 nickfailure@gmail.com).
185 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
186 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
187 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
188 for details.
189 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
190 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
191 which show up in -help etc.
192 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
193 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
194 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
195 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
196 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
197 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
198 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
199 - remove support for libafterimage.
200 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
201 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
202 libptytty instead.
203 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
204 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
205 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
206 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
207 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
208
2099.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
210 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
211 thinks thats an error.
212 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
213 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
214 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
215 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
216 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
217 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
218 and destination in composite operations.
219 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
220 for tabs.
221 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
222 Sung Pae).
