1TODO: can sth. be done about "double-wide character on last row" 1rxvt-unicode changelog <= google-friendly title
2TODO: when the cursor is out-of-margin to the left, it does not treat double-width 2
3 chars correctly when unfocused. 3TODO: xcopyarea pass broken, fix and improve
4TODO: do font request caching, might help rxvtd on some machines 4TODO: event mechanism that replaces on_user_command with something more scalable.
5TODO: safer command: keymap processing. 5TODO: slipwheeling needs a keyboard grab to get key release events.
6TODO: overlays collide with the way the out-of-focus cursor is being drawn
6TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts 7TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts, pango!
7TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc. 8TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
8WISH: keyboard modification via esc-sequences. 9TODO: slow drag selection on remote display - other things seem fast (rxvt illness, motion hints?)
9WISH: line-rewrapping on resize 10TODO: better resource handling for tabbar in -pe tabbed.
10WISH: searchable backlog 11WISH: investigate -pe tabbed -g 80x25 being 23 not 24 or 25 lines
11WISH: meta-tagging of data by regex (my dream project) 12 => when setting the constraints, the wm might (correctly)
12WISH: double-click: more intelligent (urls etc.) 13 resize the outer window, which might result in a smaller window overall.
13WISH: OnTheSpot editing, or maybe switch to miiiiiiif 14 or something like that. guys, send me a patch.
14WISH: tabbed windows (hey, just use screen...) 15WISH: coloured pastebin
15WISH: just for fun, do shade and tint with XRender. 16WISH: load system-wide config file even if we don't have one

23TODO: xdbe
24TODO: optimise bg reeval for resize for common patterns (pixmap bigger than window?)
25TODO: pack rxvt_fatal messages into the exception object
26TODO: load must not cache, but global image cache must be cleaned

37TODO: c&c perl socket via daemon-ext mechanism
38TODO: simplify extension metainfo cache, cache on disk
39TODO: URxvt::Ext::Name installs urxvt ext name and provides pod/manpage for URxvt::Ext::Name
40TODO: üpixel droppins idenrasm,ll,scrollup
41TODO: cuu/cud and probably others default to 1 when arg is 0, not just missing, in xterm/vt102, but not in rxvt
42TODO: implement xterms nih 1006 mouse mode because the fud campaign against urxvt's 1015 mode works.
43
44TODO: confirm-pastes should check for any ctl
45TODO: fix ESC G reply forever, or simply completely disable it?
46 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
47 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
48 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
49 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
50 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
51 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
52 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
53 - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression.
54 - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video
55 is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it
56 is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler).
57 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
58 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
59 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
60 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
61 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
62 ext if any bg image resource/option is present. The old bg image
63 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
64 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
65 - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions
66 (patch by Rastislav Barlik).
67
689.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
69 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
70 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
71 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
72 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
73 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
74 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
75 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
76 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
77 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
78 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
79 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
80 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
81 Devin J. Pohly).
82 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
83 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
84 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
85 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
86 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
87 action now properly rebinds the key.
88 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
89 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
90 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
91 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
92 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
93 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
94 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
95 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
96 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
97 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
98 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
99 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
100 window.
101 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
102 to a key combination.
103 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
104 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
105 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
106
1079.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
108 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
109 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
110 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
111 same height but different ascent.
112 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
113 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
114 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
115 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
116 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
117 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
118 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
119 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
120 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
121 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
122 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
123 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
124 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
125 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
126 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
127 but not documented.
128 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
129 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
130 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
131 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
132 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
133 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
134 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
135 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
136 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
137 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
138 associated to a matched pattern.
139 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
140 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
141 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
142 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
143 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
144 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
145 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
146 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
147 by Thomas Otto).
148 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
149 way properly.
150 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
151 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
152 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
153 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
154 #830236.
155 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
156 window/popup has been destroyed already.
157 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
158 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
159 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
160 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
161 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
162 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
163 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
164 simpler and actually more correct code.
165 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
166 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
167 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
168 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
169 frame buffers).
170 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
171 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
172 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
173
1749.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
175 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
176 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
177 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
178 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
179 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
180 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
181 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
182 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
183 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
184 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
185 the CLIPBOARD selection.
186 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
187 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
188 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
189 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
190 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
191 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
192
1939.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
194 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
195 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
196 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
197 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
198 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
199 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
200 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
201 function.
202 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
203 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
204
2059.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
206 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
207
2089.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
209 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
210 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
211 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
212 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
213 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
214 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
215 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
216 Münnich).
217 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
218 are disabled.
219
2209.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
221 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
222 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
223 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
224 Hemmer).
225 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
226 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
227 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
228 patch by Jan Larres).
229 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
230 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
231 as diagnosed by clang.
232 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
233 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
234 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
235 nickfailure@gmail.com).
236 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
237 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
238 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
239 for details.
240 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
241 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
242 which show up in -help etc.
243 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
244 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
245 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
246 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
247 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
248 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
249 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
250 - remove support for libafterimage.
251 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
252 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
253 libptytty instead.
254 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
255 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
256 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
257 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
258 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
259
2609.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
261 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
262 thinks thats an error.
263 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
264 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
265 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
266 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
267 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
268 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
269 and destination in composite operations.
270 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
271 for tabs.
272 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
273 Sung Pae).
274 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
275 - fix -C option on solaris.
276
2779.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
278 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
279 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
280 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
281 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
282 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
283 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
284 to disable both scaling and tiling.
285 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
286 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
287 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
288 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
289 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
290 in the next release.
291 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
292 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
293 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
294 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
295 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
296 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
297 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
298 Filardo).
299 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
300 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
301 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
302 the cell size.
303 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
304 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
305 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
306 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
307 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
308 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
309 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
310 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
311 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
312 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
313 (Bob Farrell).
314 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
315 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
316 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
317 Pohlack).
318 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
319 Michael Stapelberg).
320 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
321 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
322 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
323 edge (Mikachu).
324 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
325 handle exceptions better.
326 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
327 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
328
3299.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
330 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
331 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
332 support the UTF8_STRING target.
333 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
334 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
335 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
336 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
337 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
338 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
339 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
340 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
341 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
342 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
343
3449.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
345 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
346 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
347 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
348 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
349 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
350 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
351 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
352 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
353 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
354 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
355 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
356 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
357 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
358 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
359 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
360 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
361 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
362 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
363 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
364 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
365 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
366 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
367 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
368 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
369 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
370 with gcc.
371 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
372 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
373 - document 'thickness' resource.
374 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
375 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
376 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
377 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
378 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
379 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
380 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
381 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
382 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
383 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
384 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
385
3869.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
387 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
388 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
389 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
390 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
391 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
392 failures with gcc 4.5.
393 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
394 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
395 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
396 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
397 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
398 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
399 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
400 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
401 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
402 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
403 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
404 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
405 and has fewer limitations.
406 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
407 startup for the upper left corner.
408 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
409 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
410 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
411 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
412 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
413 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
414 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
415 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
416 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
417 - fix build on XFree86.
418 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
419 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
420 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
421 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
422
4239.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
424 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
425 - the bestest release ever.
426 - it was verified that urxvt handles µ and μ correctly.

441 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
442 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
443 characters other than first one in the selected cell
444 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
445 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
446 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
447 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
448 (found by Mikachu).
449 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
450 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
451 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
452 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
453 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video

465 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
466 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
467 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
468 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
469 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
470 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
471 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
472 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
473 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
474 backspacekey was given.
475 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.

481
4829.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
483 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
484 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
485 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters

489 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
490 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
491 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
492 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
493 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
494 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
495 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
496 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
497 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
498 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
499 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
500 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
501 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
502 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
503 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
504 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
505 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
506 - update to libptytty 1.3.
507 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move

510 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
511 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
512 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
513 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
514 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
515 in need of fixing. go figure.
516 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
517 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
518 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
519 the new ->selection_screen method.

528 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
529 - updates libev to 3.48.
530 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
531 when a window was closed.
532 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
533 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
534 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
535 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
536 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
537 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
538 makes copy&paste work.
539 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
540 no longer apply.
541 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
542 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
543 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
544 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
545 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
546 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
547 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
548 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
549 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
550 the only known workaround.
551 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
552 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
553 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
554 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
555 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
556 disabling size hints.
557 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
558 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
559 as mouse reporting.
560 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
561 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
562 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
563 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
564 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
565 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
566 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
567 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
568 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
569 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
570 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
571 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
572

577 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
578 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
579 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
580 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
581 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
582 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
583 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
584 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
585 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
586 help working window managers as well.
587 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
588 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
589 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
590 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
591 from the toplevel window to the children.
592 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
593 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
594 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
595 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
596

598 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
599 - fix build with !xft.
600 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
601
6029.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
603 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
604 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
605 received" problem, again :)
606 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
607
6089.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
609 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
610 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
611 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
612 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
613 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
614 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
615 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
616 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
617 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
618 channels or background images are used.
619 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
620 till the first event arrives. or so.
621 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
622 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
623 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
624 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
625 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
626 resets the terminal.
627 - scrollbar code cleanups.
628 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
629 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
630 - updated to libev 3.0.
631
6328.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
633 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
634 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
635 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
636 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
637 would not clear it visually in another.
638 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
639 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
640 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
641 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
642 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
643 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
644
6458.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
646 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
647 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
648 effects.
649 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
650 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
651 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
652 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
653 text was visible.
654 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
655 some minor improvements.
656 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
657 display and not once per terminal window.
658 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
659
6608.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
661 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
662 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
663 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
664
6658.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
666 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
667 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
668 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
669 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
670 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
671 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
672 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
673
6748.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
675 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
676
6778.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
678 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
679 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
680 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
681 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
682 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
683 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
684 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
685 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
686 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
687 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
688 - parallel builds should work once more.
689
6908.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
691 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
692 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
693 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
694 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
695 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
696 missing DISPLAY.
697 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
698 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
699 - updated io_manager.
700
7018.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
702 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
703 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
704 /usr/X11R6/lib.
705 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
706 patch by Sasha Vasko.
707 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
708 (patch by Philip Paeps).
709 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
710 (patch by Mikachu).
711 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
712 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
713 digit (exg).
714 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
715 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
716 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
717 extension (tpope).
718 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
719 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
720 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
721 problems.
722
7238.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
724 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
725 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
726 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
727 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
728 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
729 (found by Aiviru).
730 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
731 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
732 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
733 case to work around for :/
734 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
735 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
736 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
737 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
738 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
739 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
740 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
741 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
742 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
743 Paskevich).
744 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
745 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
746 - update libptytty.
747 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
748 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
749 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
750 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
751 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
752 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
753 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
754 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
755 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
756
7578.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
758 - ｹﾘｽﾏｽﾌ゚ﾚｾ゙ﾝﾄ - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
759 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
760 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
761 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
762 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
763 Reported by Takano Akio.
764 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
765 reported by exg.
766 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
767 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
768 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
769 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
770
7718.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
772 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
773 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
774 circumstances (reported by exg).
775 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
776 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
777 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
778 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
779 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
780 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
781 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
782 - update to libptytty-1.0.
783 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
784 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
785 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
786 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
787 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
788 bug #143985).
789 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
790 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
791 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
792 - manpage fix by exg.
793
7947.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
795 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
796 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
797 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
798 it does! :->
799 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
800 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
801
8027.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
803 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
804 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
805 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
806 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
807 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
808 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
809 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
810 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
811 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
812 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
813 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
814 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
815 uppercase character.
816 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
817 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
818 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
819 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
820 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
821 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
822 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
823 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
824 generic osc_seq.
825 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
826 were invoked recursively.
827 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
828 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
829 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
830 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
831 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
832 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
833 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
834 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
835 by omatunto_.
836 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
837 follow C++ closely enough.
838 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
839 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
840 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
841 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
842
8437.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
844 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
845 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
846 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
847 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
848 click, and eats the click.
849 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
850 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
851 refresh bugs please.
852 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
853 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
854 improve size hint setting.
855 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
856 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
857 to correctly position their preedit window.
858 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
859 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
860 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
861 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
862 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
863 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
864 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
865 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
866 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
867 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
868 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
869 (reported by Paco-Paco).
870 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
871 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
872 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
873
8747.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
875 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
876 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
877 resource value.
878 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
879 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
880 relevant tab window.
881 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
882 (initial patch by hednod).
883 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
884 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
885 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
886 the benefit of automove-background.
887 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
888 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
889 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
890 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
891 __linux__.
892 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
893 the colour components.
894 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
895 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
896 - more colour rtt optimisations.
897 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
898 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
899 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
900 - minor libptytty update.
901
9027.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
903 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
904 detection:
905 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
906 - overlap detection was improved.
907 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
908 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
909 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
910 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
911 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
912 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
913 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
914 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
915 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
916 broken.
917 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
918 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
919 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
920 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
921 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
922 (patch by Paco-Paco).
923 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
924 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
925 an "[alpha]" prefix.
926 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
927 transparent. Long Live Xft!
928 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
929 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
930 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
931 on a pseudocolor screen.
932 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
933 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
934 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
935 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
936 - small configure updates.
937 - further RTT optimisations.
938 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
939 the debian package.
940 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
941 but much newer than the old one.
942
9437.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
944 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
945 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
946 - small configure updates for libptytty.
947 - fixed version options: line output.
948 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
949
9507.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
951 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
952 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
953 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
954 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
955 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
956 selection extension.
957 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
958 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
959 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
960 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
961 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
962 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
963 needs the careful rendering mode.
964 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
965 too wide and needs careful mode.
966 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
967 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
968 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
969 atoms only once per display.
970 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
971 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
972 xterm.
973
9747.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
975 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
976 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
977 getenv (reproducible: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
978 ctrl-shift-672c).
979 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
980 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
981 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
982 the primary screen.
983 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
984 could lead to an assertion failure.
985 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
986 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
987 via mouse clicks.
988 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
989 with shift - mouse button 2.
990 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
991 in non-synthetic events.
992 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
993 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
994 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
995 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
996 whole urxvt[d] process.
997 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
998 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
999 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
1000 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
1001
10027.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
1003 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
1004 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
1005 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
1006 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
1007 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
1008 special privileges.
1009 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
1010 itself.
1011 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
1012 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
1013 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
1014 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
1015 similar stuff.
1016 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
1017 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
1018 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
1019 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
1020 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
1021 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
1022 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
1023 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
1024 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
1025 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
1026 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
1027 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
1028 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
1029 (Emanuele Giaquinta=exg).
1030 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
1031 to set the window title.
1032 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
1033 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
1034 at the wrong time.
1035 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
1036 anymore.
1037 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
1038 - nuked QNX support.
1039 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
1040 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
1041 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
1042 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
1043
10447.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
1045 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
1046 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
1047 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
1048 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
1049 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
1050 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
1051 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
1052 and much much more.
1053 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
1054 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
1055 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
1056 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
1057 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
1058 setuid/setgid.
1059 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
1060 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
1061 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
1062 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
1063 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
1064 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
1065 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
1066 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
1067 compatible, and not really small either.
1068 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
1069 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
1070 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
1071 to crashes.
1072 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
1073 colours.
1074 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
1075 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
1076
10776.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
1078 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
1079 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
1080 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
1081 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
1082 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
1083 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
1084 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
1085 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
1086 by Mikachu).
1087 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
1088 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
1089 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
1090 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
1091 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
1092 Not guaranteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
1093 - fix directory permissions on install.
1094 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
1095 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
1096 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
1097 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
1098 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
1099
11006.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
1101 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
1102 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
1103 Chuck Blake.
1104 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
1105 obscure the mouse cursor position.
1106 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
1107 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
1108 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
1109 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
1110 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
1111 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
1112 transfer efficiency.
1113 - further minor cleanups.
1114
11156.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
1116 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
1117 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
1118 while the user still drags.
1119 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
1120 not drawn correctly.
1121 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
1122 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
1123 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
1124 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
1125 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
1126 stripping whitespace.
1127 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
1128 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
1129
11306.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
1131 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
1132 - enable slow link support by default.
1133 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
1134 (also a bug in original rxvt).
1135 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
1136 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
1137 partial patch).
1138 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
1139 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
1140 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
1141 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless necessary.
1142 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
1143 - implement -hold option.
1144 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
1145 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
1146 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
1147 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
1148 - slight overall speed improvements.
1149 - considerably improved code clarity.
1150 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
1151 buffer.
1152
11535.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
1154 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
1155 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
1156 (matters only for rxvtd).
1157 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
1158 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
1159 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
1160
11615.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
1162 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
1163 If you want the old behaviour, try:
1164 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
1165 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed its meaning to comply with
1166 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
1167 percentage by 100-percentage.
1168 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
1169 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
1170 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
1171 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
1172 windows.
1173 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
1174 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
1175 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
1176 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
1177 - replaced INSTALL file.
1178
11795.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
1180 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
1181 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
1182 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
1183 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
1184 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
1185 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
1186 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
1187 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
1188
