3TODO: harmonize --disable-options into position-dependent options. 3TODO: xcopyarea pass broken, fix and improve
4TODO: after requesting the selection and getting a timeout, no further requests will be sent. 4TODO: event mechanism that replaces on_user_command with something more scalable.
5TODO: slipwheeling needs a keyboard grab to get key release events.
6TODO: overlays collide with the way the out-of-focus cursor is being drawn
5TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts 7TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts, pango!
6TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc. 8TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
7TODO: http://www120.pair.com/mccarthy/nextstep/intro.htmld/Workspace.html is the correct nextstep look. 9TODO: slow drag selection on remote display - other things seem fast (rxvt illness, motion hints?)
8WISH: OnTheSpot editing, or maybe switch to miiiiiiif 10TODO: better resource handling for tabbar in -pe tabbed.
9WISH: just for fun, do shade and tint with XRender. 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
16WISH: load system-wide config file even if we don't have one
17WISH: look into XAddConnectionWatch, does anybody need that?
18DUMB: support tex fonts
19TODO: perl-shell-window? perl-unix-socket?
20TODO: command line editing when icanon?
21TODO: split ROW into a ROW_fast (0..total*2-1) and ROW macros?
22TODO: catch exceptions when calling perl hooks
23TODO: xdbe
24TODO: optimise bg reeval for resize for common patterns (pixmap bigger than window?)
25TODO: pack rxvt_fatal messages into the exception object
26TODO: load must not cache, but global image cache must be cleaned
27TODO: provide something like % for easy access for parse_keysym
28TODO: description into --help output?
29TODO: rxvt -help => (see rxvt-XXX(1))?

35
36TODO: document typical actions in rxvt.1.pod keysyms
37TODO: warn with a graphical message when env has been modified
38
39TODO: open question, what does the nested set_color calls in get_coplours actualyl do? we can fail, but we always allocyte a replacement color.
40 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
41 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
42 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
43 same height but different ascent.
44 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
45 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
46 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
47 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
48 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
49 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
50 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
51 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
52 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
53 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
54 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
55 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
56 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
57 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
58 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
59 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
60 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
61 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
62 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
63 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
64 associated to a matched pattern.
65 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
66 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
67 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
68 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
69 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
70 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
71 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
72 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
73 by Thomas Otto).
74 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
75 way properly.
76 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
77 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
78 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
79 containing a space and with the same bg and fg color, red hat bug
80 #830236.
81 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
82 window/popup has been destroyed already.
83 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
84 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolor
85 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
86 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
87 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
88 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
89 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
90 simpler and actually more correct code.
91 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolor visuals.
92 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
93 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
94 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
95 frame buffers).
96 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
97 behaviour was incosistent between startup vs. later and
98 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
99
1009.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
101 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
102 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
103 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
104 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
105 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
106 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
107 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
108 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
109 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
110 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
111 the CLIPBOARD selection.
112 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
113 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
114 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
115 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
116 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
117 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
118
1199.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
120 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
121 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
122 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
123 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
124 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
125 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
126 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
127 function.
128 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
129 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
130
1319.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
132 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
133
1349.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
135 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
136 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
137 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
138 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
139 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
140 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
141 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
142 Münnich).
143 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
144 are disabled.
145
1469.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
147 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
148 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
149 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
150 Hemmer).
151 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
152 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
153 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
154 patch by Jan Larres).
155 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
156 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
157 as diagnosed by clang.
158 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
159 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
160 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
161 nickfailure@gmail.com).
162 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
163 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
164 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
165 for details.
166 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
167 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
168 which show up in -help etc.
169 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
170 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
171 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
172 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
173 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
174 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
175 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
176 - remove support for libafterimage.
177 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
178 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
179 libptytty instead.
180 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
181 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
182 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
183 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
184 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
185
1869.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
187 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
188 thinks thats an error.
189 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
190 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
191 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
192 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
193 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
194 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
195 and destination in composite operations.
196 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
197 for tabs.
198 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
199 Sung Pae).
200 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
201 - fix -C option on solaris.
202
2039.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
204 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
205 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
206 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
207 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
208 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
209 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
210 to disable both scaling and tiling.
211 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
212 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
213 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
214 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
215 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
216 in the next release.
217 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
218 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
219 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
220 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
221 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
222 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
223 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
224 Filardo).
225 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
226 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
227 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
228 the cell size.
229 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
230 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
231 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
232 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
233 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
234 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
235 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
236 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
237 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
238 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
239 (Bob Farrell).
240 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
241 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
242 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
243 Pohlack).
244 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
245 Michael Stapelberg).
246 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
247 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
248 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
249 edge (Mikachu).
250 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
251 handle exceptions better.
252 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
253 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
254
2559.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
256 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
257 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
258 support the UTF8_STRING target.
259 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
260 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
261 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
262 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
263 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
264 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
265 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
266 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
267 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
268 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
269
2709.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
271 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
272 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
273 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
274 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
275 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
276 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
277 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
278 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
279 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
280 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
281 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
282 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
283 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
284 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
285 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
286 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
287 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
288 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
289 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
290 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
291 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
292 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
293 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
294 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
295 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
296 with gcc.
297 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
298 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
299 - document 'thickness' resource.
300 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
301 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
302 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
303 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
304 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
305 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
306 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
307 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
308 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
309 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
310 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
311
3129.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
313 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
314 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
315 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
316 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
317 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
318 failures with gcc 4.5.
319 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
320 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
321 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
322 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
323 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
324 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
325 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
326 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
327 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
328 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
329 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
330 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
331 and has fewer limitations.
332 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
333 startup for the upper left corner.
334 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
335 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
336 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
337 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
338 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
339 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
340 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
341 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
342 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
343 - fix build on XFree86.
344 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
345 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
346 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
347 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
348
3499.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
350 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
351 - the bestest release ever.
352 - it was verified that urxvt handles µ and μ correctly.
353 - add support for blending and blurring with XRender (Emanuele Giaquinta).
354 - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta).
355 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
356 - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta).
357 - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta).
358 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
359 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
360 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
361 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
362 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
363 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
364 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
365 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
366 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
367 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
368 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
369 characters other than first one in the selected cell
370 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
371 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
372 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
373 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
374 (found by Mikachu).
375 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
376 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
377 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
378 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
379 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
380 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
381 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
382 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
383 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
384 for 256 colours.
385 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
386 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
387 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
388 88*88 possible pairs.
389 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
390 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
391 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
392 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
393 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
394 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
395 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
396 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
397 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
398 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
399 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
400 backspacekey was given.
401 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
402 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
403 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
404 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
405 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
406 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
407
4089.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
409 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
410 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
411 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
412 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
413 Mikachu).
414 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
415 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
416 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
417 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
418 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
419 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
420 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
421 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
422 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
423 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
424 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
425 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
426 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
427 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
428 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
429 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
430 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
431 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
432 - update to libptytty 1.3.
433 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
434 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
435 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
436 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
437 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
438 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
439 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
440 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
441 in need of fixing. go figure.
442 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
443 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
444 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
445 the new ->selection_screen method.
446 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
447 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
448 - fix printpipe data output (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
449 - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection.
450 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.
451 - updated compose tables to unicode 5.2.0.
452
4539.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
454 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
455 - updates libev to 3.48.
456 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
457 when a window was closed.
458 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
459 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
460 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
461 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
462 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
463 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
464 makes copy&paste work.
465 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
466 no longer apply.
467 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
468 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
469 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
470 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
471 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
472 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
473 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
474 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
475 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
476 the only known workaround.
477 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
478 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
479 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
480 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
481 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
482 disabling size hints.
483 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
484 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
485 as mouse reporting.
486 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
487 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
488 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
489 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
490 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
491 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
492 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
493 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
494 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
495 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
496 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
497 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
498
4999.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
500 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
501 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
502 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
503 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
504 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
505 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
506 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
507 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
508 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
509 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
510 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
511 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
512 help working window managers as well.
513 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
514 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
515 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
516 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
517 from the toplevel window to the children.
518 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
519 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
520 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
521 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
522
5239.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
524 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
525 - fix build with !xft.
526 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
527
5289.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
529 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
530 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
531 received" problem, again :)
532 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
533
5349.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
535 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
536 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
537 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
538 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
539 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
540 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
541 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
542 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
543 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
544 channels or background images are used.
545 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
546 till the first event arrives. or so.
547 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
548 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
549 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
550 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
551 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
552 resets the terminal.
553 - scrollbar code cleanups.
554 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
555 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
556 - updated to libev 3.0.
557
5588.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
559 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
560 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
561 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
562 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
563 would not clear it visually in another.
564 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
565 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
566 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
567 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
568 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
569 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
570
5718.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
572 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
573 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
574 effects.
575 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
576 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
577 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
578 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
579 text was visible.
580 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
581 some minor improvements.
582 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
583 display and not once per terminal window.
584 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
585
5868.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
587 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
588 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
589 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
590
5918.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
592 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
593 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
594 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
595 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
596 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
597 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
598 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
599
6008.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
601 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
602
6038.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
604 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
605 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
606 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
607 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
608 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
609 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
610 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
611 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
612 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
613 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
614 - parallel builds should work once more.
615
6168.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
617 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
618 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
619 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
620 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
621 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
622 missing DISPLAY.
623 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
624 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
625 - updated io_manager.
626
6278.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
628 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
629 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
630 /usr/X11R6/lib.
631 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
632 patch by Sasha Vasko.
633 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
634 (patch by Philip Paeps).
635 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
636 (patch by Mikachu).
637 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
638 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
639 digit (exg).
640 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
641 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
642 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
643 extension (tpope).
644 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
645 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
646 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
647 problems.
648
6498.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
650 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
651 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
652 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
653 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
654 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
655 (found by Aiviru).
656 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
657 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
658 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
659 case to work around for :/
660 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
661 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
662 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
663 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
664 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
665 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
666 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
667 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
668 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
669 Paskevich).
670 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
671 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
672 - update libptytty.
673 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
674 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
675 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
676 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
677 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
678 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
679 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
680 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
681 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
682
6838.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
684 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
685 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
686 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
687 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
688 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
689 Reported by Takano Akio.
690 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
691 reported by exg.
692 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
693 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
694 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
695 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
696
6978.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
698 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
699 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
700 circumstances (reported by exg).
701 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
702 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
703 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
704 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
705 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
706 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
707 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
708 - update to libptytty-1.0.
709 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
710 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
711 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
712 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
713 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
714 bug #143985).
715 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
716 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
717 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
718 - manpage fix by exg.
719
7207.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
721 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
722 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
723 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
724 it does! :->
725 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
726 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
727
7287.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
729 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
730 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
731 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
732 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
733 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
734 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
735 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
736 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
737 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
738 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
739 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
740 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
741 uppercase character.
742 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
743 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
744 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
745 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
746 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
747 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
748 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
749 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
750 generic osc_seq.
751 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
752 were invoked recursively.
753 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
754 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
755 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
756 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
757 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
758 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
759 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
760 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
761 by omatunto_.
762 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
763 follow C++ closely enough.
764 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
765 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
766 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
767 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
768
7697.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
770 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
771 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
772 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
773 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
774 click, and eats the click.
775 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
776 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
777 refresh bugs please.
778 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
779 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
780 improve size hint setting.
781 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
782 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
783 to correctly position their preedit window.
784 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
785 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
786 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
787 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
788 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
789 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
790 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
791 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
792 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
793 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
794 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
795 (reported by Paco-Paco).
796 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
797 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
798 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
799
8007.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
801 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
802 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
803 resource value.
804 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
805 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
806 relevant tab window.
807 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
808 (initial patch by hednod).
809 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
810 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
811 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
812 the benefit of automove-background.
813 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
814 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
815 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
816 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
817 __linux__.
818 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
819 the colour components.
820 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
821 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
822 - more colour rtt optimisations.
823 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
824 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
825 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
826 - minor libptytty update.
827
8287.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
829 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
830 detection:
831 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
832 - overlap detection was improved.
833 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
834 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
835 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
836 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
837 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
838 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
839 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
840 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
841 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
842 broken.
843 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
844 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
845 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
846 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
847 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
848 (patch by Paco-Paco).
849 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
850 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
851 an "[alpha]" prefix.
852 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
853 transparent. Long Live Xft!
854 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
855 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
856 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
857 on a pseudocolor screen.
858 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
859 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
860 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
861 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
862 - small configure updates.
863 - further RTT optimisations.
864 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
865 the debian package.
866 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
867 but much newer than the old one.
868
8697.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
870 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
871 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
872 - small configure updates for libptytty.
873 - fixed version options: line output.
874 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
875
8767.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
877 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
878 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
879 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
880 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
881 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
882 selection extension.
883 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
884 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
885 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
886 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
887 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
888 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
889 needs the careful rendering mode.
890 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
891 too wide and needs careful mode.
892 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
893 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
894 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
895 atoms only once per display.
896 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
897 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
898 xterm.
899
9007.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
901 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
902 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
903 getenv (reproducible: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
904 ctrl-shift-672c).
905 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
906 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
907 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
908 the primary screen.
909 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
910 could lead to an assertion failure.
911 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
912 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
913 via mouse clicks.
914 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
915 with shift - mouse button 2.
916 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
917 in non-synthetic events.
918 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
919 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
920 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
921 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
922 whole urxvt[d] process.
923 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
924 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
925 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
926 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
927
9287.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
929 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
930 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
931 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
932 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
933 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
934 special privileges.
935 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
936 itself.
937 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
938 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
939 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
940 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
941 similar stuff.
942 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
943 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
944 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
945 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
946 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
947 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
948 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
949 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
950 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
951 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
952 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
953 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
954 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
955 (Emanuele Giaquinta=exg).
956 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
957 to set the window title.
958 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
959 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
960 at the wrong time.
961 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
962 anymore.
963 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
964 - nuked QNX support.
965 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
966 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
967 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
968 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
969
9707.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
971 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
972 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
973 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
974 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
975 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
976 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
977 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
978 and much much more.
979 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
980 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
981 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
982 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
983 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
984 setuid/setgid.
985 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
986 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
987 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
988 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
989 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
990 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
991 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
992 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
993 compatible, and not really small either.
994 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
995 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
996 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
997 to crashes.
998 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
999 colours.
1000 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
1001 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
1002
10036.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
1004 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
1005 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
1006 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
1007 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
1008 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
1009 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
1010 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
1011 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
1012 by Mikachu).

1016 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
1017 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
1018 Not guaranteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
14 - fix directory permissions on install. 1019 - fix directory permissions on install.
15 - improved sched_yield support. 1020 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
1021 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
1022 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
1023 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
1024 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
