49 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat
50 them as zero-width characters.
51 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions.
52 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive
53 loading.
54
559.26 Fri May 14 19:14:14 CEST 2021
56 - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly
57 not packaged.

599.25 Fri May 14 15:51:36 CEST 2021
60 - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to
61 remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as
62 urclock.
63 - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105,
64 freebsd bug #234276.
65 - do not destruct perl on exit anymore: this might fail for a variety of
66 reasons, and takes unnecessary time.
67 - remove any macros from urxvtperl manpage(s), should fix debian
68 bug 858385.
69 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
70 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
71 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
72 ext if any bg image resource/option is present (for OSC sequences to
73 work you need to enable it explicitly). The old bg image
74 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
75 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
76 - confirm-paste now checks for any ctlchars, not just newlines.
77 - searchable scrollback will now ignore bracketed paste mode sequences
78 (prompted by Daniel Gröber's patch).
79 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in
80 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit
81 program can be used as a substitute).
82 - perl didn't parse rgba colours specified as an array correctly,
83 only allowing 0 and 100% intensity for each component (this affected
84 fill and tint).
85 - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle
86 multipart resources (such as "*background.expr"), for the benefit
87 of autoloading perl extensions.
88 - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security
89 implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5,
90 and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known.
91 - work around API change breakage in perl 5.28, based on a patch by
92 Roman Bogorodskiy.
93 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
94 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
95 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
96 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
97 - xterm SGR mouse mode.
98 - implement DECRQM. Patch by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
99 - add missing color index parameter to OSC 4 response. Patch
100 by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
101 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
102 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
103 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
104 - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression.
105 - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video
106 is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it
107 is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler).
108 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
109 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
110 - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions
111 (patch by Rastislav Barlik).
112 - fix a whole slew of const sillyness, unfortunately forced upon
113 us by ISO C++.
114 - update to libecb 0x00010006.
115 - disable all thread support in ecb.h as we presumably don't need it.
116 - slightly improve Makefile source dependencies.
117 - work around bugs in newer Pod::Xhtml versions (flags incorrect formatting codes
118 in xhtml/html sections but does not interpret correct ones).
119
1209.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
121 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
122 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
123 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
124 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
125 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
126 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
127 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
128 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
129 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
130 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
131 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
132 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
133 Devin J. Pohly).
134 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
135 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
136 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
137 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
138 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
139 action now properly rebinds the key.
140 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
141 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
142 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
143 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
144 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
145 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
146 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
147 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
148 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
149 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
150 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
151 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
152 window.
153 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
154 to a key combination.
155 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
156 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
157 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
158
1599.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
160 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
161 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
162 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
163 same height but different ascent.
164 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
165 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
166 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
167 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
168 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
169 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
170 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
171 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
172 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
173 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
174 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
175 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
176 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
177 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
178 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
179 but not documented.
180 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
181 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
182 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
183 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
184 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
185 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
186 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
187 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
188 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
189 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
190 associated to a matched pattern.
191 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
192 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
193 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
194 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
195 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
196 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
197 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
198 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
199 by Thomas Otto).
200 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
201 way properly.
202 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
203 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
204 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
205 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
206 #830236.
207 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
208 window/popup has been destroyed already.
209 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
210 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
211 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
212 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
213 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
214 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
215 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
216 simpler and actually more correct code.
217 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
218 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
219 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
220 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
221 frame buffers).
222 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
223 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
224 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
225
2269.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
227 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
228 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
229 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
230 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
231 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
232 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
233 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
234 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
235 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
236 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
237 the CLIPBOARD selection.
238 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
239 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
240 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
241 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
242 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
243 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
244
2459.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
246 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
247 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
248 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
249 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
250 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
251 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
252 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
253 function.
254 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
255 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
256
2579.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
258 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
259
2609.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
261 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
262 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
263 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
264 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
265 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
266 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
267 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
268 Münnich).
269 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
270 are disabled.
271
2729.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
273 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
274 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
275 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
276 Hemmer).
277 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
278 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
279 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
280 patch by Jan Larres).
281 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
282 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
283 as diagnosed by clang.
284 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
285 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
286 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
287 nickfailure@gmail.com).
288 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
289 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
290 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
291 for details.
292 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
293 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
294 which show up in -help etc.
295 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
296 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
297 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
298 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
299 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
300 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
301 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
302 - remove support for libafterimage.
303 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
304 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
305 libptytty instead.
306 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
307 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
308 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
309 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
310 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
311
3129.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
313 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
314 thinks thats an error.
315 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
316 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
317 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
318 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
319 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
320 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
321 and destination in composite operations.
322 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
323 for tabs.
324 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
325 Sung Pae).
326 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
327 - fix -C option on solaris.
328
3299.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
330 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
331 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
332 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
333 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
334 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
335 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
336 to disable both scaling and tiling.
337 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
338 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
339 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
340 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
341 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
342 in the next release.
343 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
344 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
345 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
346 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
347 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
348 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
349 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
350 Filardo).
351 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
352 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
353 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
354 the cell size.
355 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
356 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
357 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
358 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
359 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
360 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
361 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
362 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
363 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
364 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
365 (Bob Farrell).
366 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
367 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
368 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
369 Pohlack).
370 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
371 Michael Stapelberg).
372 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
373 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
374 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
375 edge (Mikachu).
376 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
377 handle exceptions better.
378 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
379 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
380
3819.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
382 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
383 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
384 support the UTF8_STRING target.
385 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
386 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
387 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
388 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
389 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
390 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
391 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
392 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
393 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
394 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
395
3969.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
397 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
398 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
399 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
400 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
401 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
402 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
403 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
404 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
405 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
406 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
24 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection 407 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
25 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme 408 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
26 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463. 409 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
27 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a 410 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
28 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is 411 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
29 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta) 412 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
30 - work around as memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently 413 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
31 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html). 414 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
415 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
416 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
32 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage. 417 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
33 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line 418 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
34 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta). 419 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
35 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case 420 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
36 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace 421 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
