47TODO: xterm-osc does not autoload background
48 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
49 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
50 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
51 ext if any bg image resource/option is present (for OSC sequences to
52 work you need to enable it explicity). The old bg image
53 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
54 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
55 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in
56 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit
57 program can be used as a substitute).
58 - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle
59 multipart resources (such as "*background.expr"), for the benefit
60 of autoloading perl extensions.
61 - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security
62 implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5,
63 and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known.
64 - work around API change breakage in perl 5.28, based on a patch by
65 Roman Bogorodskiy.
66 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
67 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
68 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
69 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
70 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
71 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
72 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
73 - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression.
74 - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video
75 is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it
76 is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler).
77 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
78 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
79 - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions
80 (patch by Rastislav Barlik).
81 - fix a whole slew of const sillyness, unfortunately forced upon
82 us by ISO C++.
83 - update to libecb 0x00010006.
84 - disable all thread support in ecb.h as we presumably don't need it.
85 - slightly improve Makefile source dependencies.
86
879.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
88 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
89 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
90 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
91 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
92 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
93 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
94 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
95 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
96 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
97 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
98 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
99 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
100 Devin J. Pohly).
101 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
102 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
103 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
104 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
105 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
106 action now properly rebinds the key.
107 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
108 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
109 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
110 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
111 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
112 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
113 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
114 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
115 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
116 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
117 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
118 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
119 window.
120 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
121 to a key combination.
122 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
123 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
124 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
125
1269.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
127 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
128 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
129 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
130 same height but different ascent.
131 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
132 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
133 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
134 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
135 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
136 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
137 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
138 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
139 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
140 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
141 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
142 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
143 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
144 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
145 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
146 but not documented.
147 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
148 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
149 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
150 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
151 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
152 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
153 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
154 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
155 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
156 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
157 associated to a matched pattern.
158 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
159 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
160 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
161 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
162 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
163 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
164 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
165 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
166 by Thomas Otto).
167 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
168 way properly.
169 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
170 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
171 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
172 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
173 #830236.
174 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
175 window/popup has been destroyed already.
176 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
177 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
178 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
179 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
180 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
181 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
182 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
183 simpler and actually more correct code.
184 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
185 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
186 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
187 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
188 frame buffers).
189 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
190 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
191 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
192
1939.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
194 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
195 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
196 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
197 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
198 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
199 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
200 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
201 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
202 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
203 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
204 the CLIPBOARD selection.
205 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
206 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
207 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
208 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
209 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
210 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
211
2129.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
213 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
214 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
215 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
216 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
217 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
218 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
219 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
220 function.
221 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
222 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
223
2249.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
225 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
226
2279.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
228 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
229 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
230 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
231 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
232 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
233 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
234 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
235 Münnich).
236 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
237 are disabled.
238
2399.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
240 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
241 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
242 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
243 Hemmer).
244 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
245 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
246 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
247 patch by Jan Larres).
248 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
249 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
250 as diagnosed by clang.
251 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
252 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
253 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
254 nickfailure@gmail.com).
255 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
256 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
257 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
258 for details.
259 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
260 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
261 which show up in -help etc.
262 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
263 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
264 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
265 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
266 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
267 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
268 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
269 - remove support for libafterimage.
270 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
271 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
272 libptytty instead.
273 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
274 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
275 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
276 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
277 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
278
2799.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
280 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
281 thinks thats an error.
282 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
283 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
284 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
285 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
286 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
287 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
288 and destination in composite operations.
289 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
290 for tabs.
291 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
292 Sung Pae).
