5503:32:26 <BlueFish> Hi. I think I found a bug in special_encode in rxvtperl.xs
5603:33:37 <BlueFish> special_encode('لا') or any other string that contains 'لا' returns a disturbed string
5703:33:40 <schmorp> hi BlueFish
5803:34:10 <schmorp> whats a disturbed string?
5903:34:25 <BlueFish> for example سلام becomes ملام
6003:35:05 <BlueFish> see this issue: https://github.com/mkamensky/Text-Bidi/issues/10 I was trying to fix it
61 and after playing around for a while found out that special_encode is causing the problem
6203:35:36 <schmorp> does this happen when you compile without --enable-combining (or with --disable-combining)?
6303:37:40 <BlueFish> I don't know the one that I installed from my distro repository has this flag or not. Is
64 there anyway to check?
6503:38:49 <schmorp> rxvt --help will output a options: line at the top, whioch will list "combining"
6603:39:10 <schmorp> anyway, I don't think i will understand this at my current tiredness level, I'll have a
67 look when I have time
6803:39:26 <schmorp> are you usually around on this network, so I coulöd ask you in cas eI have questions?
6903:40:25 <BlueFish> yes combining is enabled. No I don't check IRC that much. You can reach me via email
7003:40:44 <schmorp> ok, thats fine

73 - implement a fix for CVE-2022-4170 (reported and analyzed by David Leadbeater).
74 While present in version 9.30, it should not be exploitable. It is exploitable
75 in versions 9.25 and 9.26, at least, and allows anybody controlling terminal
76 input to execute arbitrary code in the urxvt process.
77 - the background extension no longer requires off focus fading support
78 to be compiled in.
79 - fix compiling without frills.
80 - fix rewrapMode: never.
81 - fix regression that caused urxvt to no longer emit responses
82 to OSC color queries other than OSC 4 ones.
83 - fix regression that caused urxvt to no longer process OSC 705.
84 - exec_async (used e.g. by the matcher extension to spawn processes) now
85 sets the URXVT_EXT_WINDOWID variable to the window id opf the terminal.
86
879.30 Sat 27 Nov 2021 21:07:09 CET
88 - the background extension did not initialise properly when automatically
89 loaded via the OSC.
90 - new "on_attach" hook type implemented, to initialise late-loading
91 extensions.
92
939.29 Mon 22 Nov 2021 18:07:14 CET
94 - libptytty (http://dist.schmorp.de/libptytty/) is now a required
95 external dependency.
49 - enable confirm-paste extzensions by default, can be disabled by e.g. 96 - enable confirm-paste extension by default, can be disabled by e.g.
50 URxvt.perl-ext: -confirm-paste 97 URxvt.perl-ext: -confirm-paste
98 - Key bindings specified with the -keysym option or with resources of
99 the form URxvt*keysym work again. Such resources, as opposed to
100 resources of the form URxvt.keysym, were not officially allowed but
101 accepted, so ignoring them is considered a regression.
102 - new option/resource -rm/rewrapMode, which sets the line rewrap
103 mode to auto, never or always.
104 - new option/resource -dpb/disablePasteBrackets, which can be used to
105 disable bracketed paste mode sequences, as more and more programs
106 abuse these sequences (typically in the name of security, but these
107 sequences are not improving security). Also, bracketed paste mode
108 is now under frills.
109 - add manpage for urclock.
110 - confirm-paste wrongly considered brackets as ctrlchars (patch by
111 Jakub Wilk, debian bug #995244).
51 - if urxvt cannot detect a good estimate for font width (because a font does 112 - if urxvt cannot detect a good estimate for font width (because a font does
52 not contain laitn characters at all for example), it will now fall 113 not contain latin characters at all for example), it will now fall
53 back to xft's max_advance_width, which works well with soem fonts. It 114 back to xft's max_advance_width, which works well with some fonts. It
54 currently will warn about this. 115 currently will warn about this.
55 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat 116 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat
56 them as zero-width characters. 117 them as zero-width characters.
57 - unicode characters outside of the BMP can now be rendered even 118 - change combining character architecture to allow fonts to handle
58 without --enable-unicode3, when using xft fonts. 119 combining sequences on their own. This could allow future renderers
59 - urxvt now passes full combining character sequences to xft, 120 to be more intelligent about these sequences.
60 increasing the chance of it doing something useful with it, such 121 - use the previous enhancement to allow unicode characters outside of the
61 as correctly applying variant selectors. 122 BMP to be rendered even without --enable-unicode3, as long as an
123 xft with the character is configured.
124 It's recommended to stay with disabled unicode3 even more now.
125 - freetype/xft have been verified to return nonsensical offsets for
126 combining characters. urxvt tries to compensate to some extent,
127 but diacritics will be slightly off in many cases, and far off in
128 some cases (e.g. input mono).
129 - when checking for overlap/careful handling, take non-basefont
130 character shifts into account.
131 - extensions can now request autoloading on OSC and Perl OSC sequences,
132 implement this for the background, clipboard-osc and overlay-osc
133 extensions.
134 - the background extension will now be autoloaded when the OSC 20 or 705
135 sequence is received.
136 - added OSC 776 sequence to return character cell width, height and font
137 ascent, which is useful when using urxvt as slave to calculate window
138 size form or to row/column count.
139 - matcher extension documentation now points out some requirements for
140 regular expressions. the default url matching regex will now try
141 to match IRLs in addition to URLs.
142 - The view_start perl method now scrolls to the bottom also when the
143 argument is greater than 0.
144 - eval scroll actions now scroll to the bottom when scrolling down and
145 there are less lines to scroll than the ones requested (reported by
146 Stephen Talley).
62 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions. 147 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions.
63 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive 148 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive
64 loading. 149 loading.
65 - update precompose table to unicode 13.0. 150 - update precompose table to unicode 13.0.

67 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode). 152 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode).
68 - unicode characters > 0x100000 were not handled correctly w.r.t. 153 - unicode characters > 0x100000 were not handled correctly w.r.t.
69 font rendering. 154 font rendering.
155 - replace bitstream vera by dejavu sans, as it has replaced the former
156 almost everywhere.
157 - urxvt will now try tic -x first and only fall back to tic without -x
158 when tic -x fails.
159 - fix urclock not erasing the old date on the clock face, causing
160 overdraw, plus a host of other small fixes and improvements.
161 - shave off over 1K of code size from urclock by replacing the sine table
162 with a slightly less accurate fixed point approximation.
163 - do not specify indentation with =over in pod, this is no longer
164 needed with semi-modern pod tools and gives the formatter more
165 stylistic freedom.
166 - background extension did not set the "size-sensitive" flag
167 when repeat mode wasn't normal.
168 - extensions are now subjected to "use strict 'subs'".
169 - avoid crashing when xft successfully opens a font but then somehow
170 can't lock the face.
171 - locale_decode/encode api methods now pass through undef unchanged.
172 - fix undefined behaviour in the perl hook function, as diagnosed by clang.
