40
41 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
42 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
43 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
44 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
45 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
46 Devin J. Pohly).
47 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
48 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
49 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
50 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
51 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
52 action now properly rebinds the key.
53 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
54 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
55 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
56 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
57 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
58 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
59 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
60 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
61 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
62 window.
63 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
64 to a key combination.
65 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
66 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
67
689.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
69 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
70 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
71 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
72 same height but different ascent.
73 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
74 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
75 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
76 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
77 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
78 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
79 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
80 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
81 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
82 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
83 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
84 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
85 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
86 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
87 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
88 but not documented.
89 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
90 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
91 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
92 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
93 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
94 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
95 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
96 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
97 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
98 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
99 associated to a matched pattern.
100 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
101 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
102 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
103 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
104 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
105 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
106 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
107 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
108 by Thomas Otto).
109 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
110 way properly.
111 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
112 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
113 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
114 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
115 #830236.
116 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
117 window/popup has been destroyed already.
118 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
119 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
120 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
121 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
122 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
123 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
124 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
125 simpler and actually more correct code.
126 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
127 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
128 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
129 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
130 frame buffers).
131 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
132 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
133 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
134
1359.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
136 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
137 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
138 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
139 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
140 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
141 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
142 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
143 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
144 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
145 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
146 the CLIPBOARD selection.
147 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
148 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
149 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
150 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
151 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
152 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
153
1549.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
155 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
156 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
157 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
158 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
159 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
160 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
161 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
162 function.
163 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
164 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
165
1669.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
167 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
168
1699.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
170 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
171 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
172 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
173 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
174 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
175 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
176 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
177 Münnich).
178 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
179 are disabled.
180
1819.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
182 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
183 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
184 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
185 Hemmer).
186 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
187 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
188 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
189 patch by Jan Larres).
190 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
191 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
192 as diagnosed by clang.
193 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
194 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
195 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
196 nickfailure@gmail.com).
197 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
198 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
199 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
200 for details.
201 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
202 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
203 which show up in -help etc.
204 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
205 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
206 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
207 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
208 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
209 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
210 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
211 - remove support for libafterimage.
212 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
213 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
214 libptytty instead.
215 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
216 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
217 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
218 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
219 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
220
2219.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
222 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
223 thinks thats an error.
224 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
225 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
226 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
227 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
228 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
229 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
230 and destination in composite operations.
231 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
232 for tabs.
233 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
234 Sung Pae).
235 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
236 - fix -C option on solaris.
237
2389.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
239 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
240 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
241 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
242 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
243 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
244 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
245 to disable both scaling and tiling.
246 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
247 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
248 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
249 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
250 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
251 in the next release.
252 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
253 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
254 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
255 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
256 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
257 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
258 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
259 Filardo).
260 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
261 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
262 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
263 the cell size.
264 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
265 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
266 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
267 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
268 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
269 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
270 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
271 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
272 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
273 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
274 (Bob Farrell).
275 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
276 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
277 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
278 Pohlack).
279 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
280 Michael Stapelberg).
281 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
282 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
283 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
284 edge (Mikachu).
285 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
286 handle exceptions better.
287 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
288 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
289
2909.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
291 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
292 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
293 support the UTF8_STRING target.
294 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
295 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
296 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
297 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
298 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
299 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
300 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
301 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
302 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
303 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
304
3059.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
306 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
307 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
308 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
309 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
310 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
311 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
312 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
313 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
314 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
315 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
316 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
317 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
318 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
319 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
320 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
321 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
322 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
323 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
324 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
325 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
326 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
327 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
328 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
329 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
330 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
331 with gcc.
332 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
333 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
334 - document 'thickness' resource.
335 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
336 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
337 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
338 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
339 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
340 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
341 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
342 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
343 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
344 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
345 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
346
3479.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
348 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
349 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
350 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
351 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
352 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
353 failures with gcc 4.5.
354 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
355 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
356 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
357 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
358 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
359 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
360 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
361 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
362 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
363 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
364 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
365 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
366 and has fewer limitations.
367 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
368 startup for the upper left corner.
369 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
370 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
371 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
372 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
373 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
374 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
375 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
376 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
377 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
378 - fix build on XFree86.
379 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
380 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
381 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
382 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
383
3849.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
385 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
386 - the bestest release ever.
387 - it was verified that urxvt handles µ and μ correctly.
388 - add support for blending and blurring with XRender (Emanuele Giaquinta).
389 - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta).
390 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
391 - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta).
392 - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta).
393 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
394 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
395 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
396 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
397 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
398 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
399 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
400 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
401 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
402 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
403 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
404 characters other than first one in the selected cell
405 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
406 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
407 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
408 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
409 (found by Mikachu).
410 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
411 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
412 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
413 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
414 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
415 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
416 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
417 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
418 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
419 for 256 colours.
420 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
421 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
422 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
423 88*88 possible pairs.
424 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
425 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
426 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
427 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
428 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
429 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
430 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
431 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
432 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
433 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
434 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
435 backspacekey was given.
436 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
437 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
438 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
439 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
440 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
441 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
442
4439.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
444 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
445 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
446 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
447 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
448 Mikachu).
449 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
450 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
451 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
452 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
453 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
454 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
455 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
456 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
457 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
458 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
459 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
460 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
461 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
462 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
463 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
464 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
465 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
466 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
467 - update to libptytty 1.3.
468 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
469 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
470 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
471 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
472 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
473 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
474 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
475 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
476 in need of fixing. go figure.
477 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
478 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
479 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
480 the new ->selection_screen method.
481 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
482 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
483 - fix printpipe data output (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
484 - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection.
485 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.
486 - updated compose tables to unicode 5.2.0.
487
4889.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
489 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
490 - updates libev to 3.48.
491 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
492 when a window was closed.
493 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
494 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
495 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
496 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
497 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
498 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
499 makes copy&paste work.
500 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
501 no longer apply.
502 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
503 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
504 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
505 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
506 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
507 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
508 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
509 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
510 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
511 the only known workaround.
512 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
513 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
514 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
515 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
516 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
517 disabling size hints.
518 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
519 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
520 as mouse reporting.
521 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
522 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
523 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
524 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
525 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
526 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
527 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
528 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
529 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
530 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
531 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
532 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
533
5349.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
535 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
536 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
537 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
538 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
539 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
540 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
541 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
542 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
543 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
544 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
545 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
546 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
547 help working window managers as well.
548 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
549 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
550 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
551 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
552 from the toplevel window to the children.
553 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
554 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
555 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
556 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
557
5589.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
559 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
560 - fix build with !xft.
561 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
562
5639.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
564 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
565 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
566 received" problem, again :)
567 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
568
5699.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
570 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
571 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
572 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
573 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
574 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
575 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
576 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
577 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
578 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
579 channels or background images are used.
580 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
581 till the first event arrives. or so.
582 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
583 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
584 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
585 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
586 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
587 resets the terminal.
588 - scrollbar code cleanups.
589 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
590 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
591 - updated to libev 3.0.
592
5938.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
594 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
595 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
596 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
597 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
598 would not clear it visually in another.
599 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
600 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
601 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
602 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
603 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
604 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
605
6068.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
607 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
608 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
609 effects.
610 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
611 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
612 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
613 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
614 text was visible.
615 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
616 some minor improvements.
617 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
618 display and not once per terminal window.
619 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
620
6218.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
622 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
623 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
624 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
625
6268.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
627 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
628 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
629 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
630 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
631 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
632 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
633 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
634
6358.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
636 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
637
6388.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
639 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
640 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
641 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
642 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
643 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
644 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
645 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
646 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
647 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
648 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
649 - parallel builds should work once more.
650
6518.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
652 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
653 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
654 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
655 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
656 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
657 missing DISPLAY.
658 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
659 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
660 - updated io_manager.
661
6628.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
663 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
664 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
665 /usr/X11R6/lib.
666 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
667 patch by Sasha Vasko.
668 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
669 (patch by Philip Paeps).
670 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
671 (patch by Mikachu).
672 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
673 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
674 digit (exg).
675 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
676 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
677 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
678 extension (tpope).
679 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
680 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
681 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
682 problems.
683
6848.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
685 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
686 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
687 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
688 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
689 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
690 (found by Aiviru).
691 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
692 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
693 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
694 case to work around for :/
695 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
696 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
697 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
698 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
699 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
700 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
701 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
702 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
703 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
704 Paskevich).
705 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
706 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
707 - update libptytty.
708 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
709 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
710 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
711 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
712 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
713 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
714 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
715 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
716 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
717
7188.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
719 - ｹﾘｽﾏｽﾌ゚ﾚｾ゙ﾝﾄ - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
720 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
721 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
722 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
723 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
724 Reported by Takano Akio.
725 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
726 reported by exg.
727 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
728 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
729 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
730 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
731
7328.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
733 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
734 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
735 circumstances (reported by exg).
736 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
737 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
738 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
739 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
740 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
741 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
742 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
743 - update to libptytty-1.0.
744 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
745 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
746 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
747 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
748 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
749 bug #143985).
750 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
751 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
752 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
753 - manpage fix by exg.
754
7557.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
756 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
757 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
758 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
759 it does! :->
760 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
761 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
762
7637.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
764 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
765 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
766 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
767 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
768 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
769 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
770 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
771 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
772 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
773 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
774 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
775 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
776 uppercase character.
777 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
778 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
779 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
780 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
781 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
782 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
783 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
784 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
785 generic osc_seq.
786 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
787 were invoked recursively.
788 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
789 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
790 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
791 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
792 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
793 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
794 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
795 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
796 by omatunto_.
797 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
798 follow C++ closely enough.
799 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
800 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
801 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
802 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
803
8047.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
805 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
806 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
807 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
808 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
809 click, and eats the click.
810 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
811 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
812 refresh bugs please.
813 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
814 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
815 improve size hint setting.
816 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
817 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
818 to correctly position their preedit window.
819 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
820 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
821 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
822 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
823 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
824 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
825 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
826 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
827 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
828 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
829 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
830 (reported by Paco-Paco).
831 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
832 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
833 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
834
8357.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
836 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
837 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
838 resource value.
839 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
840 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
841 relevant tab window.
842 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
843 (initial patch by hednod).
844 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
845 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
846 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
847 the benefit of automove-background.
848 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
849 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
850 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
851 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
852 __linux__.
853 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
854 the colour components.
855 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
856 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
857 - more colour rtt optimisations.
858 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
859 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
860 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
861 - minor libptytty update.
862
8637.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
864 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
865 detection:
866 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
867 - overlap detection was improved.
868 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
869 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
870 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
871 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
872 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
873 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
874 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
875 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
876 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
877 broken.
878 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
879 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
880 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
881 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
882 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
883 (patch by Paco-Paco).
884 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
885 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
886 an "[alpha]" prefix.
887 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
888 transparent. Long Live Xft!
889 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
890 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
891 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
892 on a pseudocolor screen.
893 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
894 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
895 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
896 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
897 - small configure updates.
898 - further RTT optimisations.
899 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
900 the debian package.
901 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
902 but much newer than the old one.
903
9047.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
905 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
906 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
907 - small configure updates for libptytty.
908 - fixed version options: line output.
909 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
910
9117.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
912 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
913 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
914 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
915 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
916 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
917 selection extension.
918 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
919 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
920 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
921 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
922 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
923 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
924 needs the careful rendering mode.
925 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
926 too wide and needs careful mode.
927 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
928 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
929 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
930 atoms only once per display.
931 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
932 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
933 xterm.
934
9357.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
936 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
937 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
938 getenv (reproducible: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
939 ctrl-shift-672c).
940 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
941 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
942 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
943 the primary screen.
944 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
945 could lead to an assertion failure.
946 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
947 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
948 via mouse clicks.
949 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
950 with shift - mouse button 2.
951 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
952 in non-synthetic events.
953 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
954 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
955 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
956 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
957 whole urxvt[d] process.
958 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
959 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
960 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
961 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
962
9637.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
964 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
965 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
966 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
967 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
968 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
969 special privileges.
970 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
971 itself.
972 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
973 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
974 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
975 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
976 similar stuff.
977 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
978 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
979 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
980 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
981 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
982 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
983 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
984 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
985 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
986 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
987 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
988 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
989 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
990 (Emanuele Giaquinta=exg).
991 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
992 to set the window title.
993 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
994 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
995 at the wrong time.
996 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
997 anymore.
998 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
999 - nuked QNX support.
1000 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
1001 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
1002 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
1003 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
1004
10057.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
1006 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
1007 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
1008 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
1009 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
1010 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
1011 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
1012 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
1013 and much much more.
1014 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
1015 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
1016 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
1017 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
1018 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
1019 setuid/setgid.
1020 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
1021 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
1022 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
1023 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
1024 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
1025 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
1026 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
1027 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
1028 compatible, and not really small either.
1029 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
1030 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
1031 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
1032 to crashes.
1033 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
1034 colours.
1035 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
1036 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
1037
10386.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
1039 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
1040 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
1041 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
1042 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
1043 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
1044 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
1045 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
1046 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
1047 by Mikachu).
1048 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
1049 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
1050 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
1051 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
1052 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
1053 Not guaranteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
1054 - fix directory permissions on install.
1055 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
1056 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
1057 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
1058 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
1059 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
1060
10616.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
1062 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
1063 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
1064 Chuck Blake.
1065 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
1066 obscure the mouse cursor position.
1067 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
1068 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
1069 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
1070 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
1071 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
1072 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
1073 transfer efficiency.
1074 - further minor cleanups.
1075
10766.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
1077 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
1078 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
1079 while the user still drags.
1080 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
1081 not drawn correctly.
1082 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
1083 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
1084 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
1085 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
1086 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
1087 stripping whitespace.
1088 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
1089 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
1090
10916.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
1092 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
1093 - enable slow link support by default.
1094 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
1095 (also a bug in original rxvt).
1096 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
1097 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
1098 partial patch).
1099 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
1100 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
1101 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
1102 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless necessary.
1103 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
1104 - implement -hold option.
1105 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
1106 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
1107 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
1108 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
1109 - slight overall speed improvements.
1110 - considerably improved code clarity.
1111 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
1112 buffer.
1113
11145.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
1115 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
1116 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
1117 (matters only for rxvtd).
1118 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
1119 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
1120 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
1121
11225.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
1123 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.

1134 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
1135 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
1136 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
1137 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
1138 - replaced INSTALL file.
