459.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
46 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
47 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
48 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
49 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
50 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
51 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
52 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
53 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
54 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
55 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
56 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
57 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
58 Devin J. Pohly).
59 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
60 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
61 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
62 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
63 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
64 action now properly rebinds the key.
65 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
66 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
67 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
68 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
69 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
70 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
71 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
72 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
73 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
74 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
75 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
76 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
77 window.
78 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
79 to a key combination.
80 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
81 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
82 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
83
849.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
85 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
86 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
87 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
88 same height but different ascent.
89 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
90 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
91 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
92 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
93 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
94 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
95 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
96 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
97 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
98 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
99 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
100 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
101 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
102 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
103 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
104 but not documented.
105 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
106 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
107 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
108 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
109 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
110 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
111 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
112 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
113 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
114 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
115 associated to a matched pattern.
116 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
117 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
118 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
119 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
120 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
121 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
122 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
123 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
124 by Thomas Otto).
125 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
126 way properly.
127 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
128 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
129 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
130 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
131 #830236.
132 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
133 window/popup has been destroyed already.
134 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
135 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
136 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
137 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
138 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
139 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
140 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
141 simpler and actually more correct code.
142 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
143 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
144 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
145 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
146 frame buffers).
147 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
148 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
149 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
150
1519.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
152 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
153 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
154 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
155 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
156 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
157 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
158 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
159 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
160 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
161 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
162 the CLIPBOARD selection.
163 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
164 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
165 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
166 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
167 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
168 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
169
1709.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
171 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
172 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
173 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
174 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
175 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
176 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
177 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
178 function.
179 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
180 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
181
1829.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
183 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
184
1859.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
186 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
187 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
188 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
189 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
190 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
191 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
192 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
193 Münnich).
194 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
195 are disabled.
196
1979.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
198 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
199 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
200 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
201 Hemmer).
202 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
203 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
204 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
205 patch by Jan Larres).
206 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
207 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
208 as diagnosed by clang.
209 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
210 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
211 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
212 nickfailure@gmail.com).
213 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
214 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
215 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
216 for details.
217 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
218 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
219 which show up in -help etc.
220 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
221 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
222 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
223 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
224 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
225 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
226 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
227 - remove support for libafterimage.
228 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
229 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
230 libptytty instead.
231 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
232 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
233 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
234 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
235 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
236
2379.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
238 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
239 thinks thats an error.
240 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
241 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
242 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
243 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
244 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
245 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
246 and destination in composite operations.
247 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
248 for tabs.
249 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
250 Sung Pae).
251 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
252 - fix -C option on solaris.
253
2549.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
255 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
256 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
257 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
258 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
259 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
260 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
261 to disable both scaling and tiling.
262 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
263 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
264 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
265 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
266 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
267 in the next release.
268 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
269 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
270 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
271 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
272 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
273 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
274 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
275 Filardo).
276 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
277 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
278 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
279 the cell size.
280 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
281 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
282 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
283 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
284 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
285 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
286 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
287 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
288 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
289 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
290 (Bob Farrell).
291 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
292 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
293 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
294 Pohlack).
295 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
296 Michael Stapelberg).
297 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
298 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
299 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
300 edge (Mikachu).
301 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
302 handle exceptions better.
303 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
304 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
305
3069.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
307 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
308 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
309 support the UTF8_STRING target.
310 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
311 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
312 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
313 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
314 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
315 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
316 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
317 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
318 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
319 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
320
3219.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
322 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
323 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
324 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
325 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
326 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
327 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
328 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
329 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
330 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
331 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
332 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
333 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
334 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
335 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
336 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
337 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
338 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
339 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
340 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
341 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
342 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
343 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
344 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
345 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
346 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
347 with gcc.
348 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
349 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
350 - document 'thickness' resource.
351 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
352 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
353 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
354 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
355 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
356 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
357 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
358 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
359 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
360 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
361 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
362
3639.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
364 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
365 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
366 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
367 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
368 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
369 failures with gcc 4.5.
370 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
371 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
372 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
373 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
374 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
375 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
376 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
377 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
378 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
379 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
380 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
381 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
382 and has fewer limitations.
383 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
384 startup for the upper left corner.
385 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
386 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
387 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
388 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
389 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
390 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
391 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
392 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
393 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
394 - fix build on XFree86.
395 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
396 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
397 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
398 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
399
4009.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
401 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
402 - the bestest release ever.
403 - it was verified that urxvt handles µ and μ correctly.
404 - add support for blending and blurring with XRender (Emanuele Giaquinta).
405 - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta).
406 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
407 - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta).
408 - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta).
409 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
410 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
411 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
412 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
413 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
414 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
415 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
416 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
417 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
418 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
419 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
420 characters other than first one in the selected cell
421 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
422 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
423 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
424 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
425 (found by Mikachu).
426 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
427 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
27 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of 428 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
28 highlighted characters. 429 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
