48TODO: compose chars should be rendered "in one go" for xft. maybe. possibly.
49 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat
50 them as zero-width characters.
51 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions.
52 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive
53 loading.
54 - update precompose table to unicode 13.0.
55 - update charset conversion tables to perl 5.32 (this only affected
56 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode).
57
589.26 Fri May 14 19:14:14 CEST 2021
59 - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly
60 not packaged.

629.25 Fri May 14 15:51:36 CEST 2021
63 - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to
64 remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as
65 urclock.
66 - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105,
67 freebsd bug #234276.
68 - do not destruct perl on exit anymore: this might fail for a variety of
69 reasons, and takes unnecessary time.
70 - remove any macros from urxvtperl manpage(s), should fix debian
71 bug 858385.
72 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
73 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
74 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
75 ext if any bg image resource/option is present (for OSC sequences to
76 work you need to enable it explicitly). The old bg image
77 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
78 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
79 - confirm-paste now checks for any ctlchars, not just newlines.
80 - searchable scrollback will now ignore bracketed paste mode sequences
81 (prompted by Daniel Gröber's patch).
82 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in
83 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit
84 program can be used as a substitute).
85 - perl didn't parse rgba colours specified as an array correctly,
86 only allowing 0 and 100% intensity for each component (this affected
87 fill and tint).
88 - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle
89 multipart resources (such as "*background.expr"), for the benefit
90 of autoloading perl extensions.
91 - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security
92 implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5,
93 and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known.
94 - work around API change breakage in perl 5.28, based on a patch by
95 Roman Bogorodskiy.
96 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
97 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
98 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
99 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
100 - xterm SGR mouse mode.
101 - implement DECRQM. Patch by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
102 - add missing color index parameter to OSC 4 response. Patch
103 by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
104 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
105 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
106 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
107 - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression.
108 - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video
109 is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it
110 is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler).
111 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
112 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
113 - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions
114 (patch by Rastislav Barlik).
115 - fix a whole slew of const sillyness, unfortunately forced upon
116 us by ISO C++.
117 - update to libecb 0x00010006.
118 - disable all thread support in ecb.h as we presumably don't need it.
119 - slightly improve Makefile source dependencies.
120 - work around bugs in newer Pod::Xhtml versions (flags incorrect formatting codes
121 in xhtml/html sections but does not interpret correct ones).
122
1239.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
124 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
125 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
126 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
127 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
128 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
129 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
130 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
131 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
132 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
133 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
134 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
135 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
136 Devin J. Pohly).
137 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
138 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
139 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
140 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
141 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
142 action now properly rebinds the key.
143 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
144 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
145 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
146 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
147 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
148 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
149 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
150 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
151 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
152 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
153 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
154 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
155 window.
156 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
157 to a key combination.
158 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
159 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
160 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
161
1629.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
163 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
164 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
165 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
166 same height but different ascent.
167 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
168 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
169 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
170 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
171 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
172 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
173 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
174 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
175 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
176 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
177 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
178 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
179 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
180 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
181 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
182 but not documented.
183 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
184 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
185 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
186 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
187 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
188 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
189 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
190 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
191 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
192 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
193 associated to a matched pattern.
194 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
195 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
196 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
197 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
198 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
199 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
200 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
201 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
202 by Thomas Otto).
203 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
204 way properly.
205 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
206 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
207 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
208 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
209 #830236.
210 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
211 window/popup has been destroyed already.
212 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
213 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
214 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
215 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
216 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
217 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
218 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
219 simpler and actually more correct code.
220 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
221 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
222 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
223 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
224 frame buffers).
225 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
226 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
227 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
228
2299.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
230 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
231 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
232 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
233 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
234 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
235 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
236 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
237 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
238 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
239 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
240 the CLIPBOARD selection.
241 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
242 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
243 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
244 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
245 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
246 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
247
2489.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
249 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
250 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
37 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to 251 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
38 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word. 252 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
253 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
254 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
39 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control 255 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
40 function. 256 function.
41 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline. 257 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
258 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
