It + currently will warn about this. + - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat + them as zero-width characters. + - change combining character architecture to allow fonts to handle + combining sequences on their own. This could allow future renderers + to be more intelligent about these sequences. + - use the previous enhancement to allow unicode characters outside of the + BMP to be rendered even without --enable-unicode3, as long as an + xft with the character is configured. + It's recommended to stay with disabled unicode3 even more now. + - freetype/xft have been verified to return nonsensical offsets for + combining characters. urxvt tries to compensate to some extent, + but diacritics will be slightly off in many cases, and far off in + some cases (e.g. input mono). + - when checking for overlap/careful handling, take non-basefont + character shifts into account. + - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions. + this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive + loading. + - update precompose table to unicode 13.0. + - update charset conversion tables to perl 5.32 (this only affected + cs_koi8_u_from_unicode). + - unicode characters > 0x100000 were not handled correctly w.r.t. + font rendering. + - replace bitstream vera by dejavu sans, as it has replaced the former + almost everywhere. + +9.26 Fri May 14 19:14:14 CEST 2021 + - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly + not packaged. + +9.25 Fri May 14 15:51:36 CEST 2021 + - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to + remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as + urclock. + - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105, + freebsd bug #234276. + - do not destruct perl on exit anymore: this might fail for a variety of + reasons, and takes unnecessary time. + - remove any macros from urxvtperl manpage(s), should fix debian + bug 858385. + - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background + extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No + configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background + ext if any bg image resource/option is present (for OSC sequences to + work you need to enable it explicitly). The old bg image + resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to + switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background). + - confirm-paste now checks for any ctlchars, not just newlines. + - searchable scrollback will now ignore bracketed paste mode sequences + (prompted by Daniel Gröber's patch). + - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in + POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit + program can be used as a substitute). + - perl didn't parse rgba colours specified as an array correctly, + only allowing 0 and 100% intensity for each component (this affected + fill and tint). + - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle + multipart resources (such as "*background.expr"), for the benefit + of autoloading perl extensions. + - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security + implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5, + and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known. + - work around API change breakage in perl 5.28, based on a patch by + Roman Bogorodskiy. + - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries + no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode. + - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu). + - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler). + - xterm SGR mouse mode. + - implement DECRQM.
