42 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
43 action now properly rebinds the key.
44 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
45 when scrolling and the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
46 window.
47
489.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
49 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
50 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
51 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
52 same height but different ascent.
53 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
54 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
55 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
56 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
57 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
58 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
59 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
60 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
61 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
62 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
63 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
64 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
65 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
66 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
67 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
68 but not documented.
69 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
70 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
71 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
72 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
73 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
74 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
75 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
76 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
77 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
78 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
79 associated to a matched pattern.
80 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
81 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
82 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
83 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
84 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
85 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
86 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
87 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
88 by Thomas Otto).
89 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
90 way properly.
91 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
92 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
93 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
94 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
95 #830236.
96 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
97 window/popup has been destroyed already.
98 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
99 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
100 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
101 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
102 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
103 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
104 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
105 simpler and actually more correct code.
106 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
107 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
108 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
109 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
110 frame buffers).
111 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
112 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
113 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
114
1159.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
116 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
117 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
118 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
119 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
120 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
121 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
122 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
123 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
124 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
125 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
126 the CLIPBOARD selection.
127 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
128 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
129 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
130 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
131 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
132 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
133
1349.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
135 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
136 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
137 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
138 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
139 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
140 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
141 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
142 function.
143 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
144 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
145
1469.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
147 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
148
1499.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
150 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
151 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
152 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
153 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
154 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
155 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
156 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
157 Münnich).
158 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
159 are disabled.
160
1619.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
162 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
163 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
164 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
165 Hemmer).
166 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
167 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
168 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
169 patch by Jan Larres).
170 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
171 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
172 as diagnosed by clang.
173 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
174 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
175 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
176 nickfailure@gmail.com).
177 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
178 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
179 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
180 for details.
181 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
182 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
183 which show up in -help etc.
184 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
185 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
186 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
187 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
188 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
189 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
190 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
191 - remove support for libafterimage.
192 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
193 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
194 libptytty instead.
195 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
196 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
197 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
198 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
199 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
200
2019.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
202 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
203 thinks thats an error.
204 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
205 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
206 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
207 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
208 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
209 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
210 and destination in composite operations.
211 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
212 for tabs.
213 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
214 Sung Pae).
