50TODO: xOff caching. for ascii only? fr basefont only?
51 - enable confirm-paste extension by default, can be disabled by e.g.
52 URxvt.perl-ext: -confirm-paste
53 - if urxvt cannot detect a good estimate for font width (because a font does
54 not contain latin characters at all for example), it will now fall
55 back to xft's max_advance_width, which works well with some fonts. It
56 currently will warn about this.
57 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat
58 them as zero-width characters.
59 - change combining character architecture to allow fonts to handle
60 combining sequences on their own. This could allow future renderers
61 to be more intelligent about these sequences.
62 - use the previous enhancement to allow unicode characters outside of the
63 BMP to be rendered even without --enable-unicode3, as long as an
64 xft with the character is configured.
65 It's recommended to stay with disabled unicode3 even more now.
66 - freetype/xft have been verified to return nonsensical offsets for
67 combining characters. urxvt tries to compensate to some extent,
68 but diacritics will be slightly off in many cases, and far off in
69 some cases (e.g. input mono).
70 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions.
71 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive
72 loading.
73 - update precompose table to unicode 13.0.
74 - update charset conversion tables to perl 5.32 (this only affected
75 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode).
76 - unicode characters > 0x100000 were not handled correctly w.r.t.
77 font rendering.
78
799.26 Fri May 14 19:14:14 CEST 2021
80 - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly
81 not packaged.
82
839.25 Fri May 14 15:51:36 CEST 2021
84 - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to
85 remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as
86 urclock.
87 - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105,
88 freebsd bug #234276.
89 - do not destruct perl on exit anymore: this might fail for a variety of
90 reasons, and takes unnecessary time.
91 - remove any macros from urxvtperl manpage(s), should fix debian
92 bug 858385.
93 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
94 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
95 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
96 ext if any bg image resource/option is present (for OSC sequences to
97 work you need to enable it explicitly). The old bg image
98 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
99 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
100 - confirm-paste now checks for any ctlchars, not just newlines.
101 - searchable scrollback will now ignore bracketed paste mode sequences
102 (prompted by Daniel Gröber's patch).
103 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in
104 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit
105 program can be used as a substitute).
106 - perl didn't parse rgba colours specified as an array correctly,
107 only allowing 0 and 100% intensity for each component (this affected
108 fill and tint).
109 - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle
110 multipart resources (such as "*background.expr"), for the benefit
111 of autoloading perl extensions.
112 - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security
113 implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5,
114 and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known.
115 - work around API change breakage in perl 5.28, based on a patch by
116 Roman Bogorodskiy.
117 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
118 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
119 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
120 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
121 - xterm SGR mouse mode.
122 - implement DECRQM. Patch by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
123 - add missing color index parameter to OSC 4 response. Patch
124 by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
125 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
126 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
127 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
128 - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression.
129 - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video
130 is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it
131 is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler).
132 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
133 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
134 - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions
135 (patch by Rastislav Barlik).
136 - fix a whole slew of const sillyness, unfortunately forced upon
137 us by ISO C++.
138 - update to libecb 0x00010006.
139 - disable all thread support in ecb.h as we presumably don't need it.
140 - slightly improve Makefile source dependencies.
141 - work around bugs in newer Pod::Xhtml versions (flags incorrect formatting codes
142 in xhtml/html sections but does not interpret correct ones).
143
1449.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
145 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
146 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
147 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
148 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
149 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
150 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
151 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
152 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
153 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
154 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
155 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
156 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
157 Devin J. Pohly).
158 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
159 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
160 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
161 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
162 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
163 action now properly rebinds the key.
164 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
165 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
166 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
167 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
168 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
169 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
170 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
171 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
172 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
173 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
174 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
175 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
176 window.
177 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
178 to a key combination.
179 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
180 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
181 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
182
1839.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
184 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
185 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
186 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
187 same height but different ascent.
188 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
189 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
190 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
191 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
192 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
193 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
194 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
195 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
196 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
197 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
198 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
199 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
200 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
201 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
202 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
203 but not documented.
204 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
205 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
206 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
207 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
208 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
209 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
210 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
211 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
212 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
213 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
214 associated to a matched pattern.
215 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
216 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
217 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
218 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
219 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
220 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
221 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
222 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
223 by Thomas Otto).
224 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
225 way properly.
226 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
227 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
228 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
229 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
230 #830236.
231 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
232 window/popup has been destroyed already.
233 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
234 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
235 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
236 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
237 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
238 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
239 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
240 simpler and actually more correct code.
241 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
242 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
243 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
244 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
245 frame buffers).
246 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
247 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
248 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
249
2509.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
251 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
252 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
253 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
254 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
255 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
256 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
257 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
258 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
259 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
260 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
261 the CLIPBOARD selection.
262 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
263 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
264 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
265 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
266 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
267 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
268
2699.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
270 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
271 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
272 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
273 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
274 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
275 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
276 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
277 function.
278 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
279 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
280
2819.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
282 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
283
2849.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
285 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
286 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
287 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
288 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
289 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
290 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
291 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
292 Münnich).
293 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
294 are disabled.
295
2969.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
297 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
298 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
299 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
300 Hemmer).
301 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
302 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
303 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
304 patch by Jan Larres).
305 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
306 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
307 as diagnosed by clang.
308 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
309 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
310 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
311 nickfailure@gmail.com).
312 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
313 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
314 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
315 for details.
316 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
317 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
318 which show up in -help etc.
319 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
320 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
321 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
322 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
323 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
324 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
325 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
326 - remove support for libafterimage.
327 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
328 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
329 libptytty instead.
330 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
331 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
332 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
333 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
334 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
335
3369.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
337 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
338 thinks thats an error.
339 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
340 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
341 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
342 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
343 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
344 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
345 and destination in composite operations.
346 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
347 for tabs.
348 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
349 Sung Pae).
350 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
351 - fix -C option on solaris.
352
3539.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
354 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
355 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
356 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
357 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
358 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
359 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
360 to disable both scaling and tiling.
361 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
362 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
363 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
364 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
365 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
366 in the next release.
367 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
368 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
369 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
370 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
371 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
372 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
373 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
374 Filardo).
375 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
376 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
377 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
378 the cell size.
379 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
380 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
381 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
382 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
383 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
384 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
385 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
386 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
387 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
388 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
389 (Bob Farrell).
390 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
391 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
392 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
393 Pohlack).
394 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
395 Michael Stapelberg).
396 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
397 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
398 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
399 edge (Mikachu).
400 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
401 handle exceptions better.
402 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
403 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
404
4059.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
406 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
407 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
408 support the UTF8_STRING target.
409 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
410 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
411 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
412 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
413 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
414 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
415 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
416 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
417 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
418 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
419
4209.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
421 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
422 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
423 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
424 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
425 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
426 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
427 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
428 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
429 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
430 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
431 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
432 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
433 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
434 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
435 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
436 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
437 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
438 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
439 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
440 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
441 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
442 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
443 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
444 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
445 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
446 with gcc.
447 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
448 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
449 - document 'thickness' resource.
450 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
451 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
452 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
453 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
454 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
455 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
456 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
457 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
458 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
459 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
460 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
461
4629.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
463 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
464 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
465 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
466 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
467 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
468 failures with gcc 4.5.
469 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
470 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
471 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
472 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
473 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
474 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
475 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
476 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
477 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
478 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
479 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
480 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
481 and has fewer limitations.
482 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
483 startup for the upper left corner.
484 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
485 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
486 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
487 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
488 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
489 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
490 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
491 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
492 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
493 - fix build on XFree86.
494 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
495 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
496 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
497 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
498

512 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
513 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
514 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
515 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
516 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
517 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
518 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
519 characters other than first one in the selected cell
520 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
521 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
522 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
523 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
524 (found by Mikachu).
525 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
526 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
527 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
528 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
529 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
530 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
531 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
532 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
533 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
534 for 256 colours.
535 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
536 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
537 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
538 88*88 possible pairs.
539 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
540 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
541 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
542 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
543 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
544 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
545 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
546 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
547 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
548 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
549 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
550 backspacekey was given.
551 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
552 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
553 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
554 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
555 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
556 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
557
5589.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
559 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
560 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
561 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
562 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
563 Mikachu).
564 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
565 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
566 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
567 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
568 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
569 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
570 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
571 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
572 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
573 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
574 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
575 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
576 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
577 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
578 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
579 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
580 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
581 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
582 - update to libptytty 1.3.
583 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
584 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
585 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
586 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
587 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
588 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
589 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
590 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
591 in need of fixing. go figure.
592 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
593 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
594 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
595 the new ->selection_screen method.
596 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
597 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).

605 - updates libev to 3.48.
606 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
607 when a window was closed.
608 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
609 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
610 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
611 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
612 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
613 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
614 makes copy&paste work.
615 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
616 no longer apply.
617 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
618 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
619 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
620 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
621 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
622 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
623 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
624 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
625 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
626 the only known workaround.
627 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
628 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
629 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
630 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
631 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
632 disabling size hints.
633 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
634 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
635 as mouse reporting.
636 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
637 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
638 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
639 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
640 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
641 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
642 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
643 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
644 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
645 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
646 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
647 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
648
6499.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
650 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.

655 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
656 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
657 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
658 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
659 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
660 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
661 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
662 help working window managers as well.
663 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
664 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
665 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
666 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
667 from the toplevel window to the children.
668 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
669 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
670 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.

674 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
675 - fix build with !xft.
676 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
677
6789.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
679 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
680 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
681 received" problem, again :)
682 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
683
6849.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
685 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
686 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
687 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
688 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
689 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
690 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
691 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
692 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
693 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
694 channels or background images are used.
695 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
696 till the first event arrives. or so.
697 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
698 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
699 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
700 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
701 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
702 resets the terminal.
703 - scrollbar code cleanups.
704 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
705 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
706 - updated to libev 3.0.
707
7088.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
709 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
710 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
711 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
712 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
713 would not clear it visually in another.
714 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
715 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
716 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
717 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
718 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
719 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
720
7218.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
722 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
723 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
724 effects.
725 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
726 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
727 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
728 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
729 text was visible.
730 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
731 some minor improvements.
732 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
733 display and not once per terminal window.
734 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
735
7368.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
737 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
738 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
739 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
740
7418.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
742 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
743 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
744 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
745 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
746 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
747 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
748 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
749
7508.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
751 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
752
7538.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
754 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
755 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
756 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
757 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
758 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
759 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
760 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
761 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
762 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
763 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
764 - parallel builds should work once more.
765
7668.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
767 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
768 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
