42TODO: implement xterms nih 1006 mouse mode because the fud campaign against urxvt's 1015 mode works. 42TODO: clean up the resource vs. long option mess, especially in the manpage.
43TODO: think about daemon delaying urxvt client exit.

5407:29:15 <dg> i'm guessing the builtin font doesn't have that character (篭)
5507:29:40 <dg> on one machine with 9.30 that segfaults, with what looks like a null pointer deref
5607:29:58 <dg> on latest dev, but a different machine it hangs
5707:33:26 <dg> hmm, and on openbsd it doesn't even hang with that reduction, but the actual case the fuzzer
58 found does hang

61TODO: nmeum reports that when the wm resizes urxvt while it opens, the prompt is now somewhere in the middle
62of the window, rather than near the top. this behaviour change wss part of the wrapmode fix, and should normally
63prevent from readline jumping around on resizes. running urxvt with the exact geometry that the wm will assign "fixed" this.

65
66 - fix reference counting of values returned by some perl bindings.
67 - fix OSC responses with 7-bit ST (reported by Stuart Henderson).
68 - change the encoding of buttons 8-11 in mouse reporting
69 sequences to match xterm's and enable reporting of release
70 events for them (patch by Pierre-Marc Fournier).
71 - clamp coordinates in mouse reporting sequences to the number
72 of rows and columns (patch by Nick Hanley).
73 - added Alt_L/ALt_R and updated some keys in iso 14755 5.2 mode.
74
759.31 Mon 02 Jan 2023 18:13:16 CET
76 - implement a fix for CVE-2022-4170 (reported and analyzed by David Leadbeater).
77 While present in version 9.30, it should not be exploitable. It is exploitable
78 in versions 9.25 and 9.26, at least, and allows anybody controlling output to
79 the terminal to execute arbitrary code in the urxvt process.
80 - the background extension no longer requires off focus fading support
81 to be compiled in.
82 - the confirm-paste extension now offers a choice between pasting the original
83 or a sanitized version, and also frees up memory used to store the paste text
84 immediately.
85 - fix compiling without frills.
86 - fix rewrapMode: never.
87 - fix regression that caused urxvt to no longer emit responses
88 to OSC color queries other than OSC 4 ones.
89 - fix regression that caused urxvt to no longer process OSC 705.
90 - restore CENTURY to be 1900 to "improve" year parsing in urclock (or at
91 least go back to the old interpretation) (based on an analysis
92 by Tommy Pettersson).
93 - exec_async (used e.g. by the matcher extension to spawn processes) now
94 sets the URXVT_EXT_WINDOWID variable to the window id of the terminal.
95 - implement -fps option/refreshRate resource to change the default 60 Hz
96 maximum refresh limiter. I always wanted an fps option, but had to
97 wait for a user requesting it.
98 - new clickthrough extension.
99 - perl now also requires Xext.
100 - X region and shape extension functionality has been exposed to perl
101 extensions.
102 - RENDER extension no longer depends on ENABLE_XIM_ONTHESPOT.
103
1049.30 Sat 27 Nov 2021 21:07:09 CET
105 - the background extension did not initialise properly when automatically
106 loaded via the OSC.
107 - new "on_attach" hook type implemented, to initialise late-loading
108 extensions.
109
1109.29 Mon 22 Nov 2021 18:07:14 CET
111 - libptytty (http://dist.schmorp.de/libptytty/) is now a required
112 external dependency.
113 - enable confirm-paste extension by default, can be disabled by e.g.
114 URxvt.perl-ext: -confirm-paste
115 - Key bindings specified with the -keysym option or with resources of
116 the form URxvt*keysym work again. Such resources, as opposed to
117 resources of the form URxvt.keysym, were not officially allowed but
118 accepted, so ignoring them is considered a regression.
119 - new option/resource -rm/rewrapMode, which sets the line rewrap
120 mode to auto, never or always.
121 - new option/resource -dpb/disablePasteBrackets, which can be used to
122 disable bracketed paste mode sequences, as more and more programs
123 abuse these sequences (typically in the name of security, but these
124 sequences are not improving security). Also, bracketed paste mode
125 is now under frills.
126 - add manpage for urclock.
127 - confirm-paste wrongly considered brackets as ctrlchars (patch by
128 Jakub Wilk, debian bug #995244).
129 - if urxvt cannot detect a good estimate for font width (because a font does
130 not contain latin characters at all for example), it will now fall
131 back to xft's max_advance_width, which works well with some fonts. It
132 currently will warn about this.
133 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat
134 them as zero-width characters.
135 - change combining character architecture to allow fonts to handle
136 combining sequences on their own. This could allow future renderers
137 to be more intelligent about these sequences.
138 - use the previous enhancement to allow unicode characters outside of the
139 BMP to be rendered even without --enable-unicode3, as long as an
140 xft with the character is configured.
141 It's recommended to stay with disabled unicode3 even more now.
142 - freetype/xft have been verified to return nonsensical offsets for
143 combining characters. urxvt tries to compensate to some extent,
144 but diacritics will be slightly off in many cases, and far off in
145 some cases (e.g. input mono).
146 - when checking for overlap/careful handling, take non-basefont
147 character shifts into account.
148 - extensions can now request autoloading on OSC and Perl OSC sequences,
149 implement this for the background, clipboard-osc and overlay-osc
150 extensions.
151 - the background extension will now be autoloaded when the OSC 20 or 705
152 sequence is received.
153 - added OSC 776 sequence to return character cell width, height and font
154 ascent, which is useful when using urxvt as slave to calculate window
155 size form or to row/column count.
156 - matcher extension documentation now points out some requirements for
157 regular expressions. the default url matching regex will now try
158 to match IRLs in addition to URLs.
159 - The view_start perl method now scrolls to the bottom also when the
160 argument is greater than 0.
161 - eval scroll actions now scroll to the bottom when scrolling down and
162 there are less lines to scroll than the ones requested (reported by
163 Stephen Talley).
164 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions.
165 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive
166 loading.
167 - update precompose table to unicode 13.0.
168 - update charset conversion tables to perl 5.32 (this only affected
169 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode).
170 - unicode characters > 0x100000 were not handled correctly w.r.t.
171 font rendering.
172 - replace bitstream vera by dejavu sans, as it has replaced the former
173 almost everywhere.
174 - urxvt will now try tic -x first and only fall back to tic without -x
175 when tic -x fails.
176 - fix urclock not erasing the old date on the clock face, causing
177 overdraw, plus a host of other small fixes and improvements.
178 - shave off over 1K of code size from urclock by replacing the sine table
179 with a slightly less accurate fixed point approximation.
180 - do not specify indentation with =over in pod, this is no longer
181 needed with semi-modern pod tools and gives the formatter more
182 stylistic freedom.
183 - background extension did not set the "size-sensitive" flag
184 when repeat mode wasn't normal.
185 - extensions are now subjected to "use strict 'subs'".
186 - avoid crashing when xft successfully opens a font but then somehow
187 can't lock the face.
188 - locale_decode/encode api methods now pass through undef unchanged.
189 - fix undefined behaviour in the perl hook function, as diagnosed by clang.
190
1919.26 Fri May 14 19:14:14 CEST 2021
192 - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly
193 not packaged.
194
1959.25 Fri May 14 15:51:36 CEST 2021
196 - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to
197 remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as
198 urclock.
199 - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105,
200 freebsd bug #234276.
201 - do not destruct perl on exit anymore: this might fail for a variety of
202 reasons, and takes unnecessary time.
203 - remove any macros from urxvtperl manpage(s), should fix debian
204 bug 858385.

54 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background). 211 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
212 - confirm-paste now checks for any ctlchars, not just newlines.
213 - searchable scrollback will now ignore bracketed paste mode sequences
214 (prompted by Daniel Gröber's patch).
55 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in 215 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in
56 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit 216 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit
57 program can be used as a substitute). 217 program can be used as a substitute).
218 - perl didn't parse rgba colours specified as an array correctly,
219 only allowing 0 and 100% intensity for each component (this affected
220 fill and tint).
58 - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle 221 - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle
