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.

56 - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly
57 not packaged.

599.25 Fri May 14 15:51:36 CEST 2021
60 - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to
61 remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as
62 urclock.
63 - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105,
64 freebsd bug #234276.
65 - do not destruct perl on exit anymore: this might fail for a variety of
66 reasons, and takes unnecessary time.
67 - remove any macros from urxvtperl manpage(s), should fix debian
68 bug 858385.
69 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
70 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
71 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
72 ext if any bg image resource/option is present (for OSC sequences to
73 work you need to enable it explicitly). The old bg image
74 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
75 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
76 - confirm-paste now checks for any ctlchars, not just newlines.
77 - searchable scrollback will now ignore bracketed paste mode sequences
78 (prompted by Daniel Gröber's patch).
79 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in
80 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit
81 program can be used as a substitute).
82 - perl didn't parse rgba colours specified as an array correctly,
83 only allowing 0 and 100% intensity for each component (this affected
84 fill and tint).
85 - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle
86 multipart resources (such as "*background.expr"), for the benefit
87 of autoloading perl extensions.
88 - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security
89 implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5,
90 and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known.
91 - work around API change breakage in perl 5.28, based on a patch by
92 Roman Bogorodskiy.
93 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
94 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
95 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
96 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
97 - xterm SGR mouse mode.
98 - implement DECRQM. Patch by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
99 - add missing color index parameter to OSC 4 response. Patch
100 by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
101 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
102 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
103 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
104 - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression.
105 - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video
106 is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it
107 is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler).
108 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
109 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
110 - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions
111 (patch by Rastislav Barlik).
112 - fix a whole slew of const sillyness, unfortunately forced upon
113 us by ISO C++.
114 - update to libecb 0x00010006.
115 - disable all thread support in ecb.h as we presumably don't need it.
116 - slightly improve Makefile source dependencies.
117 - work around bugs in newer Pod::Xhtml versions (flags incorrect formatting codes
118 in xhtml/html sections but does not interpret correct ones).

1209.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
121 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
122 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
123 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
124 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
125 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
126 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
127 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
128 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
129 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
130 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
131 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
132 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
133 Devin J. Pohly).
134 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
135 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
136 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
137 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
138 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
139 action now properly rebinds the key.
140 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
141 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
142 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
143 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
144 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
145 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
146 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
147 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
148 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
149 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
150 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
151 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
152 window.
153 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
154 to a key combination.
155 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
156 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
157 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
158
1599.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
160 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
161 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
39 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the 162 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
40 same height but different ascent. 163 same height but different ascent.
164 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
165 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
166 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
167 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
168 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
169 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
41 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar. 170 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
42 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl 171 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
43 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by 172 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
44 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and 173 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
45 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported. 174 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
46 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string 175 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
47 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt. 176 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
48 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process. 177 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
178 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
179 but not documented.
49 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp. 180 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
50 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time 181 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
51 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson). 182 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
52 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym 183 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
53 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic 184 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic

70 way properly. 201 way properly.
71 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv. 202 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
72 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods. 203 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
73 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell 204 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
74 containing a space and with the same bg and fg color, red hat bug 205 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
75 #830236. 206 #830236.
207 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
208 window/popup has been destroyed already.
209 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
210 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
211 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
212 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
213 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
214 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
215 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
216 simpler and actually more correct code.
217 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
218 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
219 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
220 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
221 frame buffers).
222 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
223 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
224 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
