50 - if urxvt cannot detect a good estimate for font width (because a font does
51 not contain laitn characters at all for example), it will now fall
52 back to xft's max_advance_width, which works well with soem fonts. It
53 currently will warn about this.
54 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat
55 them as zero-width characters.
56 - unicode characters outside of the BMP can now be rendered even
57 without --enable-unicode3, when using xft fonts.
58 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions.
59 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive
60 loading.
61 - update precompose table to unicode 13.0.
62 - update charset conversion tables to perl 5.32 (this only affected
63 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode).
64 - unicode characters > 0x100000 were not handled correctly w.r.t.
65 font rendering.

68 - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly
69 not packaged.

719.25 Fri May 14 15:51:36 CEST 2021
72 - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to
73 remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as
74 urclock.
75 - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105,
76 freebsd bug #234276.
77 - do not destruct perl on exit anymore: this might fail for a variety of
78 reasons, and takes unnecessary time.
79 - remove any macros from urxvtperl manpage(s), should fix debian
80 bug 858385.
81 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
82 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
83 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
84 ext if any bg image resource/option is present (for OSC sequences to
85 work you need to enable it explicitly). The old bg image
86 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
87 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
88 - confirm-paste now checks for any ctlchars, not just newlines.
89 - searchable scrollback will now ignore bracketed paste mode sequences
90 (prompted by Daniel Gröber's patch).
91 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in
92 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit
93 program can be used as a substitute).
94 - perl didn't parse rgba colours specified as an array correctly,
95 only allowing 0 and 100% intensity for each component (this affected
96 fill and tint).
97 - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle
98 multipart resources (such as "*background.expr"), for the benefit
99 of autoloading perl extensions.
100 - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security
101 implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5,
102 and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known.
103 - work around API change breakage in perl 5.28, based on a patch by
104 Roman Bogorodskiy.
105 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
106 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
107 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
108 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
109 - xterm SGR mouse mode.
110 - implement DECRQM. Patch by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
111 - add missing color index parameter to OSC 4 response. Patch
112 by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
113 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
114 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
115 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
116 - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression.
117 - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video
118 is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it
119 is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler).
120 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
121 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
122 - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions
123 (patch by Rastislav Barlik).
124 - fix a whole slew of const sillyness, unfortunately forced upon
125 us by ISO C++.
126 - update to libecb 0x00010006.
127 - disable all thread support in ecb.h as we presumably don't need it.
128 - slightly improve Makefile source dependencies.
129 - work around bugs in newer Pod::Xhtml versions (flags incorrect formatting codes
130 in xhtml/html sections but does not interpret correct ones).
131
1329.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
133 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
134 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
135 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
136 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
137 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
138 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
139 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
140 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
141 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
142 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
143 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
144 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
145 Devin J. Pohly).
146 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
147 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
148 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
149 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
150 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
151 action now properly rebinds the key.
152 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
153 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
154 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
155 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
156 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
157 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
158 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
159 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
160 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
161 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
162 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
163 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
164 window.
165 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
166 to a key combination.
167 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
168 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
169 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
170
1719.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
172 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
173 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
174 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
175 same height but different ascent.
176 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
177 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
178 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
179 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
180 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
181 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
182 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
183 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
184 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
185 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
186 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
187 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
188 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
189 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
190 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
191 but not documented.
192 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
193 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
194 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
195 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
196 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
197 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
198 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
199 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
200 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
201 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
202 associated to a matched pattern.
203 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
204 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
205 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
206 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
207 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
208 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
209 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
210 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
211 by Thomas Otto).
212 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
213 way properly.
214 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
215 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
216 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
217 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
218 #830236.
219 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
220 window/popup has been destroyed already.
221 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
222 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
223 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
224 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
225 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
226 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
227 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
228 simpler and actually more correct code.
229 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
230 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
231 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
232 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
233 frame buffers).
234 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
235 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
236 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
237
2389.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
239 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
240 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
241 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
242 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
243 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
244 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
245 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
246 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
247 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
248 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
249 the CLIPBOARD selection.
250 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
251 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
252 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
253 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
254 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
255 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
256
2579.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
258 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
259 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
260 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
261 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
262 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
263 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
264 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
265 function.
266 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
267 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
268
2699.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
270 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
271

274 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
275 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
276 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
277 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
278 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
279 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
280 Münnich).
281 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
282 are disabled.
283
2849.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
285 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
286 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
287 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
288 Hemmer).
289 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
290 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
291 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
292 patch by Jan Larres).
293 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
294 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
295 as diagnosed by clang.
296 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
297 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
298 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
299 nickfailure@gmail.com).
300 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
301 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
302 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
303 for details.
304 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
305 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
306 which show up in -help etc.

308 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
309 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
310 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
311 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
312 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
313 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
314 - remove support for libafterimage.
315 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
316 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
317 libptytty instead.
318 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
319 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.

326 thinks thats an error.
327 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
