9TODO: slow drag selection on remote display - other things seem fast (rxvt illness, motion hints?)
10TODO: better resource handling for tabbar in -pe tabbed.
11WISH: investigate -pe tabbed -g 80x25 being 23 not 24 or 25 lines
12 => when setting the constraints, the wm might (correctly)
13 resize the outer window, which might result in a smaller window overall.
14 or something like that. guys, send me a patch.
15WISH: coloured pastebin

359.16
36 - the "so much new stuff you eyes will pop out" release.
37 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
38 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
39 Hemmer).
40 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
41 patch by Jan Larres).
42 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
43 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
44 as diagnosed by clang.
45 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
46 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
47 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
48 nickfailure@gmail.com).
49 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
50 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
51 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
52 for details.
53 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
54 which show up in -help etc.
55 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
56 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
57 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
58 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
59 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
60 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
61 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
62 - remove support for libafterimage.
63 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
64 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
65 libptytty instead.
66 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
67 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
16 68
17TODO: xim "how to" faq entry 699.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
18TODO: rxvt -bg #comment 70 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
71 thinks thats an error.
72 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
73 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
74 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
75 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
76 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
77 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
78 and destination in composite operations.
79 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
80 for tabs.
81 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
82 Sung Pae).
83 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
84 - fix -C option on solaris.
19 85
869.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
87 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
88 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
89 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
90 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
91 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
92 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
93 to disable both scaling and tiling.
94 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
95 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
96 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
97 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
98 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
99 in the next release.
100 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
101 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
102 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
103 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
104 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
105 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
106 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
107 Filardo).
108 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
109 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
110 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
111 the cell size.
112 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
113 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
114 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
115 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
116 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
117 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
118 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
119 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
120 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
121 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
122 (Bob Farrell).
123 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
124 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
125 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
126 Pohlack).
127 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
128 Michael Stapelberg).
129 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
130 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
131 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
132 edge (Mikachu).
133 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
134 handle exceptions better.
135 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
136 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
137
1389.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
139 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
140 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
141 support the UTF8_STRING target.
142 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
143 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
144 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
145 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
146 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
147 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
148 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
149 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
150 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
151 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
152
1539.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
154 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
155 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
156 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
157 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
158 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
159 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
160 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
161 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
162 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
163 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
164 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
165 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
166 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
167 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
168 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
169 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
170 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
171 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
172 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
173 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
174 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
175 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
176 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
177 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
178 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
179 with gcc.
180 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
181 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
182 - document 'thickness' resource.
183 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
184 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
185 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
186 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
187 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
188 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
189 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
190 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
191 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
192 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
193 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
194
1959.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
196 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
197 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
198 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
199 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
200 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
201 failures with gcc 4.5.
202 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
203 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
204 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
205 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
206 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
207 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
208 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
209 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
210 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
211 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
212 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
213 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
214 and has fewer limitations.
215 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
216 startup for the upper left corner.
217 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
218 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
219 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
220 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
221 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
222 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
223 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
224 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
225 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
226 - fix build on XFree86.
227 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
228 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
229 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
230 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
231
2329.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
233 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
234 - the bestest release ever.
235 - it was verified that urxvt handles µ and μ correctly.
236 - add support for blending and blurring with XRender (Emanuele Giaquinta).
237 - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta).
238 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
239 - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta).
240 - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta).
241 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
242 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
243 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
244 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
245 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
246 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
247 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
248 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
249 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
250 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
251 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
252 characters other than first one in the selected cell
253 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
254 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
255 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
256 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
257 (found by Mikachu).
258 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
259 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
260 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
261 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
262 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
263 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
264 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
265 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
266 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
267 for 256 colours.
268 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
269 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
270 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
271 88*88 possible pairs.
272 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
273 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
274 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
275 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
276 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
277 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
278 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
279 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
280 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
281 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
282 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
283 backspacekey was given.
284 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
285 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
286 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
287 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
288 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
289 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
290
2919.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
292 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
293 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
294 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
295 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
296 Mikachu).
297 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
298 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
299 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
300 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
301 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
302 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
303 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
304 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
305 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
306 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
307 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
308 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
309 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
310 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
311 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
312 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
313 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
314 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
315 - update to libptytty 1.3.
316 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
317 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
318 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
319 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
320 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
321 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
322 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
323 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
324 in need of fixing. go figure.
325 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
326 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
327 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
328 the new ->selection_screen method.
329 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
330 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
331 - fix printpipe data output (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
332 - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection.
333 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.
334 - updated compose tables to unicode 5.2.0.
335
3369.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
337 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
338 - updates libev to 3.48.
339 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
340 when a window was closed.
341 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
342 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
343 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
344 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
345 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
346 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
347 makes copy&paste work.
348 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
349 no longer apply.
350 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
351 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
352 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
353 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
354 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
355 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
356 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
357 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
358 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
359 the only known workaround.
360 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
361 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
362 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
363 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
364 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
365 disabling size hints.
366 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
367 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
368 as mouse reporting.
369 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
370 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
371 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
372 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
373 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
374 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
375 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
376 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
377 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
378 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
379 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
380 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
381
3829.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
383 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
384 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
385 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
386 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
387 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
388 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
389 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
390 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
391 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
392 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
393 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
394 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
395 help working window managers as well.
396 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
397 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
398 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
399 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
400 from the toplevel window to the children.
401 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
402 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
403 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
404 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
405
4069.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
407 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
408 - fix build with !xft.
409 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
410
4119.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
412 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
413 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
414 received" problem, again :)
415 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
416
4179.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
418 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
419 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
420 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
421 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
422 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
423 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
424 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).

429 till the first event arrives. or so.
430 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
431 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
432 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
433 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
434 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
435 resets the terminal.

453
4548.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
455 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
456 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
457 effects.
458 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
459 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
460 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.

468
4698.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
470 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes

475 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
476 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
477 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
478 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
479 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
480 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
481 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
482

484 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
485
4868.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
487 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
488 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
489 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
490 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
491 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
492 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
493 on (typical) 64 bit systems.

498
4998.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
500 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).

504 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
505 missing DISPLAY.
506 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
507 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
508 - updated io_manager.
509
5108.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
511 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
512 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
513 /usr/X11R6/lib.
514 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
515 patch by Sasha Vasko.
516 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
517 (patch by Philip Paeps).

526 extension (tpope).
527 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
528 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).

5328.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
533 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
534 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
535 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
536 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
537 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
538 (found by Aiviru).
539 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
540 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
541 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
542 case to work around for :/
543 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
544 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
545 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
546 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.

548 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
549 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
550 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
551 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
552 Paskevich).
553 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
554 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
555 - update libptytty.
556 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
557 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
558 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
559 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
560 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
561 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
562 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
563 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
564 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
565
5668.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
567 - ｹﾘｽﾏｽﾌ゚ﾚｾ゙ﾝﾄ - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
568 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
569 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
570 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
571 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
572 Reported by Takano Akio.
573 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
574 reported by exg.
575 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
576 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
577 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
578 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
579
5808.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
581 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
582 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
583 circumstances (reported by exg).
584 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
585 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
586 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
587 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
588 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
589 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
590 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
591 - update to libptytty-1.0.
592 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
593 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
594 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
595 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
596 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
597 bug #143985).
598 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
599 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
600 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
601 - manpage fix by exg.
602
6037.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
604 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
605 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
606 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
607 it does! :->
608 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
609 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
610
6117.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
612 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
613 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
614 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
615 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
616 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
617 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
618 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
619 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
620 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
621 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
622 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
623 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
624 uppercase character.
625 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
626 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
627 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
628 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
629 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
630 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
631 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
632 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
633 generic osc_seq.
634 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
635 were invoked recursively.
636 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
637 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
638 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
639 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
640 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
641 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
642 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
643 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
644 by omatunto_.
645 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
646 follow C++ closely enough.
647 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
648 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
649 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
650 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
651
6527.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
653 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
654 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
655 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
656 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
657 click, and eats the click.
658 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
659 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
660 refresh bugs please.
661 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
662 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
663 improve size hint setting.
664 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
665 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
666 to correctly position their preedit window.
667 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
668 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
669 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
670 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
671 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
672 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
673 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
674 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
675 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
676 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
677 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
678 (reported by Paco-Paco).
679 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
680 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
681 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
682
6837.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006

22 resource value. 686 resource value.
687 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
688 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
689 relevant tab window.
690 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
691 (initial patch by hednod).
692 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
693 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
694 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
695 the benefit of automove-background.
696 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
697 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
698 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
23 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on 699 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
24 __linux__. 700 __linux__.
