259.16
26 - the "alpha" release.
27 - remove support for libafterimage.
28 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
29 Hemmer).
30 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
31 patch by Jan Larres).
32 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
33 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
34 as diagnosed by clang.
35 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
36 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
37 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
38 nickfailure@gmail.com).
39 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
40 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
41 libptytty instead.
42 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
43 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
44 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes thigs a bit faster, too.
45 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
46 might speed up execution but deifnitely decreases codesize.
47
489.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
49 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
50 thinks thats an error.
51 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
52 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
53 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
54 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
55 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
56 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
57 and destination in composite operations.
58 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
59 for tabs.
60 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
61 Sung Pae).
62 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
63 - fix -C option on solaris.
64
659.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
66 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
67 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
68 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
69 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
70 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
71 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
72 to disable both scaling and tiling.
73 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
74 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
75 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
76 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
77 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
78 in the next release.
79 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
80 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
81 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
82 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
83 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
84 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
85 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
86 Filardo).
87 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
88 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
89 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
90 the cell size.
91 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
92 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
93 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
94 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
95 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
96 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
97 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
98 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
99 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
100 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
101 (Bob Farrell).
102 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
103 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
104 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
105 Pohlack).
106 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
107 Michael Stapelberg).
108 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
109 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
110 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
111 edge (Mikachu).
112 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
113 handle exceptions better.
114 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
115 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
116
1179.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
118 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
119 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
120 support the UTF8_STRING target.
121 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
122 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
123 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
124 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
125 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
126 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
127 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
128 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
129 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
130 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
131
1329.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
133 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
134 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
135 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
136 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
137 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
138 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
139 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
140 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
141 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
142 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
143 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
144 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
145 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
146 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
147 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
148 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
149 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
150 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
151 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
152 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
153 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
154 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
155 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
156 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
157 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
158 with gcc.
159 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
160 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
161 - document 'thickness' resource.
162 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
163 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
164 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
165 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
166 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
167 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
168 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
169 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
170 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
171 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
172 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
173
1749.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
175 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
176 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
177 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
178 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
179 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
180 failures with gcc 4.5.
181 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
182 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
183 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
184 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
185 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
186 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
187 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
188 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
189 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
190 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
191 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
192 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
193 and has fewer limitations.
194 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
195 startup for the upper left corner.
196 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
197 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
198 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
199 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
200 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
201 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
202 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
203 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
204 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
205 - fix build on XFree86.
206 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
207 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
208 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
209 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
210
2119.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010

224 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
225 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
226 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
227 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
228 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
229 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
230 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
231 characters other than first one in the selected cell
232 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
233 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
234 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
235 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
236 (found by Mikachu).
237 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
238 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
239 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
240 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
241 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
242 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
243 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
244 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
245 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
246 for 256 colours.
247 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
248 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
249 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
250 88*88 possible pairs.
251 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
252 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
253 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
254 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
255 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
256 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
257 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
258 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
259 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
260 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
261 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
262 backspacekey was given.
263 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
264 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
265 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
266 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
267 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
268 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
269
2709.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
271 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
272 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
273 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
274 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
275 Mikachu).
276 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
277 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
278 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
279 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
280 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
281 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
282 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
283 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
284 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
285 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
286 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
287 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
288 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
289 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
290 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
291 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
292 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
293 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
294 - update to libptytty 1.3.
295 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
296 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
297 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
298 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
299 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
300 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
301 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
302 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
303 in need of fixing. go figure.
304 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
305 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
306 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
307 the new ->selection_screen method.

317 - updates libev to 3.48.
318 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
319 when a window was closed.
320 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
321 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
322 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
323 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
324 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
325 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but

334 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
335 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
336 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
337 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
338 the only known workaround.
339 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
340 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
341 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
342 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
343 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
344 disabling size hints.
345 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
346 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
347 as mouse reporting.
348 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
349 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
350 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
351 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
352 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
353 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
354 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
355 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
