36 - the keysym-list extension has been removed, you can use the following
37 zsh one-liner provided by Mikachu to expand your existing .Xdefaults
38 file to do without it:
39 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
40 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
41 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
42
439.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
44 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
45 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
46 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
47 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
48 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
49 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
50 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
51 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
52 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
53 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
54 the CLIPBOARD selection.
55 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
56 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
57 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
58 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
59 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
60 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
61
629.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
63 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
64 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
65 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
66 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
67 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
68 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
69 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
70 function.
71 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
72 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
73
749.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
75 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
76
779.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
78 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
79 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
80 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
81 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
82 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
83 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
84 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
85 Münnich).
86 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
87 are disabled.
88
899.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
90 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
91 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
92 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
93 Hemmer).
94 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
95 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
96 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
97 patch by Jan Larres).
98 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
99 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
100 as diagnosed by clang.
101 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
102 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
103 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
104 nickfailure@gmail.com).
105 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
106 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
107 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
108 for details.
109 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
110 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
111 which show up in -help etc.
112 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
113 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
114 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
115 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
116 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
117 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
118 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
119 - remove support for libafterimage.
120 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
121 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
122 libptytty instead.
123 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
124 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
125 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
126 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
127 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
128
1299.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
130 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
131 thinks thats an error.
132 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
133 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
134 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
135 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
136 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
137 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
138 and destination in composite operations.
139 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
140 for tabs.
141 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
142 Sung Pae).
143 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
144 - fix -C option on solaris.
145
1469.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
147 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
148 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
149 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
150 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
151 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
152 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
153 to disable both scaling and tiling.
154 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
155 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
156 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
157 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
158 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
159 in the next release.
160 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
161 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
162 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
163 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
164 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
165 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
166 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
167 Filardo).
168 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
169 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
170 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
171 the cell size.
172 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
173 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
174 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
175 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
176 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
177 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
178 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
179 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
180 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
181 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
182 (Bob Farrell).
183 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
184 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
185 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
186 Pohlack).
187 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
188 Michael Stapelberg).
189 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
190 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
191 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
192 edge (Mikachu).
193 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
194 handle exceptions better.
195 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
196 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
197
1989.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
199 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
200 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
201 support the UTF8_STRING target.
202 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
203 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
204 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
205 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
206 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
207 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
208 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
209 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
210 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
211 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
212
2139.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
214 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
215 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
216 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
217 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
218 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
219 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
220 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
221 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
222 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
223 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
224 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
225 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
226 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
227 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
228 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
229 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
230 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
231 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
232 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
233 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
234 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
235 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
236 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
237 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
238 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
239 with gcc.
240 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
241 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
242 - document 'thickness' resource.
243 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
244 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
245 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
246 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
247 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
248 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
249 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
250 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
251 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
252 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
253 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
254
2559.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
256 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
257 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
258 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
259 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
260 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
261 failures with gcc 4.5.
262 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
263 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
264 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
265 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
266 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
267 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
268 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
269 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
270 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
271 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
272 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
273 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
274 and has fewer limitations.
275 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
276 startup for the upper left corner.
277 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
278 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
279 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
280 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
281 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
282 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
283 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
284 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
285 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
286 - fix build on XFree86.
287 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
288 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
289 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
290 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
291
2929.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
293 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
294 - the bestest release ever.
295 - it was verified that urxvt handles µ and μ correctly.
296 - add support for blending and blurring with XRender (Emanuele Giaquinta).
297 - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta).
298 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
299 - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta).
300 - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta).
301 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
302 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
303 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
304 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
305 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
306 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
307 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
308 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
309 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
310 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
311 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
312 characters other than first one in the selected cell
313 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
314 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
315 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
316 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
317 (found by Mikachu).
318 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
319 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
320 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
321 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
322 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
323 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
324 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
325 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
326 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
327 for 256 colours.
328 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
329 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
330 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
331 88*88 possible pairs.
332 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
333 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
334 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
335 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
336 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
337 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
338 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
339 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
340 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
341 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
342 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
343 backspacekey was given.
344 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
345 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
346 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
347 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
348 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
349 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
350
3519.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
352 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
353 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
354 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
355 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
356 Mikachu).
357 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
358 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
359 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
360 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
361 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
362 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
363 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
364 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
365 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
366 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
367 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
368 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
369 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
370 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
371 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
372 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
373 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
374 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
375 - update to libptytty 1.3.
376 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
377 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
378 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
379 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
380 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
381 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
382 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
383 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
384 in need of fixing. go figure.
385 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
386 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
387 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
388 the new ->selection_screen method.
389 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
390 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
391 - fix printpipe data output (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
392 - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection.
393 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.
394 - updated compose tables to unicode 5.2.0.
395
3969.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
397 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
398 - updates libev to 3.48.
399 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
400 when a window was closed.
401 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
402 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
403 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
404 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
405 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
406 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
407 makes copy&paste work.
408 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
409 no longer apply.
410 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
411 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
412 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
413 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
414 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
415 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
416 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
417 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
418 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
419 the only known workaround.
420 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
421 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
422 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
423 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
424 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
425 disabling size hints.
426 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
427 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
428 as mouse reporting.
429 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
430 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
431 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
432 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
433 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
434 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
435 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
436 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
437 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
438 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
439 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
440 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
441
4429.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
443 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
444 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
445 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
446 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
447 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
448 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
449 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
450 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
451 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
452 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
453 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
454 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
455 help working window managers as well.
456 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
457 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
458 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
459 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
460 from the toplevel window to the children.
461 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
462 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
463 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
464 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
465
4669.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
467 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
468 - fix build with !xft.
469 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
470
4719.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
472 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
473 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
474 received" problem, again :)
475 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
476
4779.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
478 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
479 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
480 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
481 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
482 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
483 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
484 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
485 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
486 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
487 channels or background images are used.
488 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
489 till the first event arrives. or so.
490 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
491 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
492 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
493 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
494 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
495 resets the terminal.
496 - scrollbar code cleanups.
497 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
498 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
499 - updated to libev 3.0.
500
5018.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
502 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
503 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
504 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
505 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
506 would not clear it visually in another.
507 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
508 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
509 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
510 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
511 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
512 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
513
5148.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
515 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
516 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
517 effects.
518 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
519 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
520 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
521 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
522 text was visible.
523 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
524 some minor improvements.
525 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
526 display and not once per terminal window.
527 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
528
5298.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
530 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
531 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
532 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
533
5348.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
535 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
536 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
537 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
538 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
539 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
540 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
541 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
542
5438.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
544 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
545
5468.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
547 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
548 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
549 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
550 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
551 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
552 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
553 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
554 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
555 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
556 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
557 - parallel builds should work once more.
558
5598.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
560 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
561 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
562 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
563 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
564 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
565 missing DISPLAY.
566 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
567 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
568 - updated io_manager.
569
5708.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
571 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
572 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
573 /usr/X11R6/lib.
574 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
575 patch by Sasha Vasko.
576 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
577 (patch by Philip Paeps).
578 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
579 (patch by Mikachu).
580 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
581 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
582 digit (exg).
583 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
584 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
585 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
586 extension (tpope).
587 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
588 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
589 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
590 problems.
591
5928.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
593 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
594 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
595 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
596 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
597 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
598 (found by Aiviru).
599 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
600 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
601 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
602 case to work around for :/
603 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
604 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
605 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
606 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
607 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
608 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
609 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
610 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
611 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
612 Paskevich).
613 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
614 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
615 - update libptytty.
616 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
617 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
618 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
619 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
620 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
621 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
622 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
623 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
624 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
625
6268.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
627 - ｹﾘｽﾏｽﾌ゚ﾚｾ゙ﾝﾄ - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
628 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
629 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
630 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
631 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
632 Reported by Takano Akio.
633 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
634 reported by exg.
635 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
636 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
637 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
638 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
639
6408.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
641 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
642 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
643 circumstances (reported by exg).
644 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
645 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
646 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
647 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
648 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
649 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
650 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
651 - update to libptytty-1.0.
652 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
653 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
654 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
655 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
656 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
657 bug #143985).
658 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
659 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
660 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
661 - manpage fix by exg.
662
6637.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
664 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
665 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
666 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
667 it does! :->
668 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
669 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
670
6717.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
672 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
673 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
674 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
675 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
676 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
677 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
678 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
679 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
680 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
681 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
682 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
683 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
684 uppercase character.
685 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
686 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
687 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
688 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
689 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
690 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
691 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
692 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
693 generic osc_seq.
694 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
695 were invoked recursively.
696 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
697 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
698 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
699 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
700 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
701 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
702 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
703 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
704 by omatunto_.
705 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
706 follow C++ closely enough.
707 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
708 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
709 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
710 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
711
7127.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
713 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
714 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
715 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
716 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
717 click, and eats the click.
718 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
719 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
720 refresh bugs please.
721 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
722 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
723 improve size hint setting.
724 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
725 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
726 to correctly position their preedit window.
727 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
728 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
729 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
730 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
731 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
732 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
733 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
734 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
735 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
736 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
737 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
738 (reported by Paco-Paco).
739 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
740 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
741 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
742
7437.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
744 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
745 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
746 resource value.
747 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
748 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
749 relevant tab window.
750 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
751 (initial patch by hednod).
752 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
753 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
754 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
755 the benefit of automove-background.
756 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
757 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
758 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
759 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
760 __linux__.
761 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
762 the colour components.
763 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
764 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
765 - more colour rtt optimisations.
766 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
767 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
768 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
769 - minor libptytty update.
770
7717.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
772 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
773 detection:
774 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
775 - overlap detection was improved.
776 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
777 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
778 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
779 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
780 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
781 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
782 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
783 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
784 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
785 broken.
786 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
787 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
788 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
789 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
790 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
791 (patch by Paco-Paco).
792 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
793 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
794 an "[alpha]" prefix.
795 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
796 transparent. Long Live Xft!
797 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
798 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
799 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
800 on a pseudocolor screen.
801 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
802 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
803 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
804 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
805 - small configure updates.
806 - further RTT optimisations.
807 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
808 the debian package.
809 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
810 but much newer than the old one.
811
8127.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
813 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
814 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
815 - small configure updates for libptytty.
816 - fixed version options: line output.
817 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
818
8197.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
820 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
821 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
822 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
823 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
824 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
825 selection extension.
826 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
827 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
828 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
829 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
830 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
831 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
832 needs the careful rendering mode.
833 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
834 too wide and needs careful mode.
835 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
836 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
837 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
838 atoms only once per display.
839 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
840 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
841 xterm.
842
8437.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
844 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
845 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
846 getenv (reproducible: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
847 ctrl-shift-672c).
848 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
849 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
850 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
851 the primary screen.
852 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
853 could lead to an assertion failure.
854 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
855 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
856 via mouse clicks.
857 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
858 with shift - mouse button 2.
859 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
860 in non-synthetic events.
861 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
862 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
863 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
864 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
865 whole urxvt[d] process.
866 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
867 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
868 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
869 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
870
8717.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
872 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
873 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
874 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
875 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
876 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
877 special privileges.
878 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
879 itself.
880 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
881 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
882 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
883 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
884 similar stuff.
885 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
886 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
887 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
888 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
889 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
890 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
891 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
892 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
893 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
894 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
895 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
896 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
897 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
898 (Emanuele Giaquinta=exg).
899 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
900 to set the window title.
901 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
902 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
903 at the wrong time.
904 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
905 anymore.
906 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
907 - nuked QNX support.
908 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
909 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
910 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
911 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
912
9137.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
914 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
915 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
916 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
917 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
918 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
919 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
920 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
921 and much much more.
922 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
923 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
924 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
925 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
926 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
927 setuid/setgid.
928 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
929 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
930 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
931 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
932 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
933 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
934 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
935 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
936 compatible, and not really small either.
937 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
938 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
939 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
940 to crashes.
941 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
942 colours.
943 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
944 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
945
9466.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
947 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
948 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
949 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
950 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
951 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
952 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
953 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
954 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
955 by Mikachu).
956 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
957 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
958 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
959 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
960 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
961 Not guaranteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
962 - fix directory permissions on install.
963 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
964 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
965 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
966 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
967 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
968
9696.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
970 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
971 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
972 Chuck Blake.
973 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
974 obscure the mouse cursor position.
975 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
976 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
977 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
978 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
979 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
980 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
981 transfer efficiency.
982 - further minor cleanups.
983
9846.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
985 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
986 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
987 while the user still drags.
988 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
989 not drawn correctly.
990 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
991 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
992 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
993 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
994 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
995 stripping whitespace.
996 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
997 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
998
9996.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
1000 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
1001 - enable slow link support by default.
1002 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
1003 (also a bug in original rxvt).
1004 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
1005 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
1006 partial patch).
1007 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
1008 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
1009 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
1010 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless necessary.
1011 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
1012 - implement -hold option.
1013 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
1014 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
1015 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
1016 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
1017 - slight overall speed improvements.
1018 - considerably improved code clarity.
1019 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
1020 buffer.
1021
10225.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
1023 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
1024 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
1025 (matters only for rxvtd).
1026 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
1027 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
1028 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
1029
10305.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
1031 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
1032 If you want the old behaviour, try:
1033 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
1034 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed its meaning to comply with
1035 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
1036 percentage by 100-percentage.
1037 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
1038 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
1039 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
1040 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
1041 windows.
1042 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
1043 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
1044 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
1045 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
1046 - replaced INSTALL file.
1047
10485.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
1049 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
1050 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
1051 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
1052 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
1053 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
1054 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
1055 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
1056 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
1057
10585.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
1059 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
1060 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
1061 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
1062 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apparently
1063 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
1064 Affects display in iso14755 box.
1065 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
1066 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
1067 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
1068 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
1069 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
1070 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
1071 cutting pieces off of characters.
1072 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
1073 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
1074 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
1075 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
1076 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
1077 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
1078 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
1079
10805.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
1081 - re-enabled modifier state matching as in 5.3, but implement
1082 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
1083 meaning of the given key.
1084 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
1085 (patch by Martin Edlman).
1086
10875.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
1088 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
1089 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
1090 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
1091 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
1092 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
1093 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
1094 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
1095 to disable it.
1096
10975.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
1098 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
1099 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
1100 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
1101 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
1102 with modifiers.
1103 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
1104 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
1105 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
1106 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
1107 and clear the scrollback buffer.
1108
11095.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
1110 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
1111 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
1112 a command.
1113 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
1114 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
1115 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
1116 in Perl/Gtk2.
1117 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
1118 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
1119 (reported by Mikael Magnusson=Mikachu).
1120 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
1121 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
1122 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
1123 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not necessary.
1124 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
1125 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
1126 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
1127 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
1128 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
1129 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
1130 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
1131 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
1132 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
1133 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed
1134 rxvt-unicode).
1135 - get rid of the intpro files.
1136

1141 - new option: -embed (frills). somebody could write a simple
1142 tk script to make a tab'able terminal now...
1143 - only warn on X errors and _try_ to continue (frills).
18 - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow. 1144 - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow.
1145 - after deciding that LSM is dead, remove all traces of it,
1146 along with other, similar, cleanups.
1147 - _try_ to react sensibly to some non-monotonic time changes.
1148 - don't crash in urxvtc when getcwd fails (reported by Paco-Paco).
1149 - tweak font searching algorithm a bit to be faster and more
1150 compatible with older rxvt-unicode versions when multiple fonts
1151 match (reported by Paco-Paco).
1152 - urxvtd tries to stay in "/" whenever possible.
