49 - libptytty is now an external dependency.
50 - enable confirm-paste extension by default, can be disabled by e.g.
51 URxvt.perl-ext: -confirm-paste
52 - Key bindings specified with the -keysym option or with resources of
53 the form URxvt*keysym work again. Such resources, as opposed to
54 resources of the form URxvt.keysym, were not officially allowed but
55 accepted, so ignoring them is considered a regression.
56 - new option/resource -rm/rewrapMode, which sets the line rewrap
57 mode to auto, never or always.
58 - new option/resource -dpb/disablePasteBrackets, which can be used to
59 disable bracketed paste mode sequences, as more and more programs
60 abuse these sequences (typically in the name of security, but these
61 sequences are not improving security). Also, bracketed paste mode
62 is now under frills.
63 - add manpage for urclock.
64 - confirm-paste wrongly considered brackets as ctrlchars (patch by
65 Jakub Wilk, debian bug #995244).
66 - if urxvt cannot detect a good estimate for font width (because a font does
67 not contain latin characters at all for example), it will now fall
68 back to xft's max_advance_width, which works well with some fonts. It
69 currently will warn about this.
70 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat
71 them as zero-width characters.
72 - change combining character architecture to allow fonts to handle
73 combining sequences on their own. This could allow future renderers
74 to be more intelligent about these sequences.
75 - use the previous enhancement to allow unicode characters outside of the
76 BMP to be rendered even without --enable-unicode3, as long as an
77 xft with the character is configured.
78 It's recommended to stay with disabled unicode3 even more now.
79 - freetype/xft have been verified to return nonsensical offsets for
80 combining characters. urxvt tries to compensate to some extent,
81 but diacritics will be slightly off in many cases, and far off in
82 some cases (e.g. input mono).
83 - when checking for overlap/careful handling, take non-basefont
84 character shifts into account.
85 - extensions can now request autoloading on OSC and Perl OSC sequences,
86 implement this for the background, clipboard-osc and overlay-osc
87 extensions.
88 - the background extension will now be autoloaded when the OSC 20 or 705
89 sequence is received.
90 - The view_start perl method now scrolls to the bottom also when the
91 argument is greater than 0.
92 - eval scroll actions now scroll to the bottom when scrolling down and
93 there are less lines to scroll than the ones requested (reported by
94 Stephen Talley).
95 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions.
96 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive
97 loading.
98 - update precompose table to unicode 13.0.
99 - update charset conversion tables to perl 5.32 (this only affected
100 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode).
101 - unicode characters > 0x100000 were not handled correctly w.r.t.
102 font rendering.
103 - replace bitstream vera by dejavu sans, as it has replaced the former
104 almost everywhere.
105 - urxvt will now try tic -x first and only fall back to tic without -x
106 when tic -x fails.
107 - fix urclock not erasing the old date on the clock face, causing
108 overdraw, plus a host of other small fixes and improvements.
109 - shave off over 1K of code size from urclock by replacing the sine table
110 with a slightly less accurate fixed point approximation.
111 - do not specify indentation with =over in pod, this is no longer
112 needed with semi-modern pod tools and gives the formatter more
113 stylistic freedom.
114 - background extension did not set the "size-sensitive" flag
115 when repeat mode wasn't normal.
116 - extensions are now subjected to "use strict 'subs'".
117 - avoid crashing when xft successfully opens a font but then somehow
118 can't lock the face.
119 - locale_decode/encode api methods now pass through undef unchanged.
120 - fix undefined behaviour in the perl hook function, as diagnosed by clang.

1229.26 Fri May 14 19:14:14 CEST 2021
123 - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly
124 not packaged.

1269.25 Fri May 14 15:51:36 CEST 2021
127 - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to
128 remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as
129 urclock.
130 - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105,
131 freebsd bug #234276.

135 bug 858385.
