44 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
45 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
46 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
47 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
48 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
49 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
50 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
51 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
52 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
53 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
54 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
55 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
56 ext if any bg image resource/option is present. The old bg image
57 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
58 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).

609.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
61 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
62 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
63 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
64 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
65 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
66 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
67 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
68 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
69 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
70 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
71 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
72 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
73 Devin J. Pohly).
74 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
75 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
76 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
77 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
78 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
79 action now properly rebinds the key.
80 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
81 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
82 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
83 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
84 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
85 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
86 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
87 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
88 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
89 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
90 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
91 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
92 window.
93 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
94 to a key combination.
95 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
96 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
97 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
98
999.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
100 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
101 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
102 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
103 same height but different ascent.
104 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
105 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
106 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
107 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
108 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
109 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
110 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
111 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
112 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
113 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
114 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
115 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
116 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
117 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
118 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
119 but not documented.
120 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
121 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
122 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
123 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
124 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
125 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
126 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
127 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
128 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
129 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
130 associated to a matched pattern.
131 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
132 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
133 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
134 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
135 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
136 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
137 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
138 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
139 by Thomas Otto).
140 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
141 way properly.
142 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
143 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
144 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
145 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
146 #830236.
147 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
148 window/popup has been destroyed already.
149 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
150 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
151 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
152 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
153 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
154 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
155 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
156 simpler and actually more correct code.
157 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
158 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
159 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
160 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
161 frame buffers).
162 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
163 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
164 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
165
1669.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
167 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
168 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
169 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
170 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
171 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
172 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
173 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
174 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
175 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
176 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
177 the CLIPBOARD selection.
178 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
179 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
180 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
181 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
182 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
183 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
184
1859.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
186 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
187 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
188 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
189 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
190 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
191 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
192 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
193 function.
194 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
195 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
196
1979.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013

205 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
206 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
207 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
208 Münnich).
209 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
210 are disabled.
211
2129.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
213 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
214 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
215 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
216 Hemmer).
217 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
218 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
219 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
220 patch by Jan Larres).
221 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
222 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
223 as diagnosed by clang.
224 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
225 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
226 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
227 nickfailure@gmail.com).
228 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
229 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
230 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
231 for details.
232 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
233 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
234 which show up in -help etc.

237 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
238 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
239 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
240 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
241 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
242 - remove support for libafterimage.
243 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
244 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
245 libptytty instead.
246 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
247 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
248 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
249 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
250 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
251

261 and destination in composite operations.
262 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
263 for tabs.
