50TODO: image loading osc does not autoload background ext
51TODO: clean up the resource vs. long option mess, especially in the manpage.
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 - enable confirm-paste extension by default, can be disabled by e.g.
64 URxvt.perl-ext: -confirm-paste
65 - eval scroll actions now scroll to the bottom when scrolling down and
66 there are less lines to scroll than the ones requested (patch by
67 Stephen Talley).
68 - if urxvt cannot detect a good estimate for font width (because a font does
69 not contain latin characters at all for example), it will now fall
70 back to xft's max_advance_width, which works well with some fonts. It
71 currently will warn about this.
72 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat
73 them as zero-width characters.
74 - change combining character architecture to allow fonts to handle
75 combining sequences on their own. This could allow future renderers
76 to be more intelligent about these sequences.
77 - use the previous enhancement to allow unicode characters outside of the
78 BMP to be rendered even without --enable-unicode3, as long as an
79 xft with the character is configured.
80 It's recommended to stay with disabled unicode3 even more now.
81 - freetype/xft have been verified to return nonsensical offsets for
82 combining characters. urxvt tries to compensate to some extent,
83 but diacritics will be slightly off in many cases, and far off in
84 some cases (e.g. input mono).
85 - when checking for overlap/careful handling, take non-basefont
86 character shifts into account.
87 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions.
88 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive
89 loading.
90 - update precompose table to unicode 13.0.
91 - update charset conversion tables to perl 5.32 (this only affected
92 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode).
93 - unicode characters > 0x100000 were not handled correctly w.r.t.
94 font rendering.
95 - replace bitstream vera by dejavu sans, as it has replaced the former
96 almost everywhere.
97
989.26 Fri May 14 19:14:14 CEST 2021
99 - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly
100 not packaged.
101
1029.25 Fri May 14 15:51:36 CEST 2021
103 - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to
104 remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as
105 urclock.
106 - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105,
107 freebsd bug #234276.
108 - do not destruct perl on exit anymore: this might fail for a variety of
109 reasons, and takes unnecessary time.
110 - remove any macros from urxvtperl manpage(s), should fix debian
111 bug 858385.
112 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
113 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
114 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
115 ext if any bg image resource/option is present (for OSC sequences to
116 work you need to enable it explicitly). The old bg image
117 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
118 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
119 - confirm-paste now checks for any ctlchars, not just newlines.
120 - searchable scrollback will now ignore bracketed paste mode sequences
121 (prompted by Daniel Gröber's patch).
122 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in
123 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit
124 program can be used as a substitute).
125 - perl didn't parse rgba colours specified as an array correctly,
126 only allowing 0 and 100% intensity for each component (this affected
127 fill and tint).
128 - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle
129 multipart resources (such as "*background.expr"), for the benefit
130 of autoloading perl extensions.
131 - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security
132 implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5,
133 and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known.
134 - work around API change breakage in perl 5.28, based on a patch by
135 Roman Bogorodskiy.
136 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
137 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
138 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
139 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
140 - xterm SGR mouse mode.
141 - implement DECRQM. Patch by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
142 - add missing color index parameter to OSC 4 response. Patch
143 by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
144 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
145 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
146 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
147 - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression.
148 - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video
149 is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it
150 is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler).
151 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
152 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
153 - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions
154 (patch by Rastislav Barlik).
155 - fix a whole slew of const sillyness, unfortunately forced upon
156 us by ISO C++.
157 - update to libecb 0x00010006.
158 - disable all thread support in ecb.h as we presumably don't need it.
159 - slightly improve Makefile source dependencies.
160 - work around bugs in newer Pod::Xhtml versions (flags incorrect formatting codes
161 in xhtml/html sections but does not interpret correct ones).
162
1639.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
164 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
165 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
166 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
167 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
168 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
169 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
170 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
171 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
172 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
173 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
174 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
175 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
176 Devin J. Pohly).
177 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
178 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
179 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
180 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
181 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
182 action now properly rebinds the key.
183 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
184 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
185 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
186 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
187 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
188 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
189 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
190 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
191 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
192 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
193 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
194 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
195 window.
196 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
197 to a key combination.
198 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
199 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
200 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
201
2029.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
203 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
204 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
205 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
206 same height but different ascent.
207 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
208 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
209 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
210 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
211 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
212 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
213 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
214 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
215 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
216 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
217 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
218 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
219 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
220 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
221 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
222 but not documented.
223 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
224 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
225 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
226 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
227 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
228 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
229 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
230 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
231 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
232 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
233 associated to a matched pattern.
234 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
235 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
236 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
237 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
238 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
239 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
240 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
241 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
242 by Thomas Otto).
243 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
244 way properly.
245 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
246 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
247 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
248 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
249 #830236.
250 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
251 window/popup has been destroyed already.
252 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
253 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
254 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
255 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
256 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
257 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
258 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
259 simpler and actually more correct code.
260 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
261 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
262 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
263 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
264 frame buffers).
265 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
266 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
267 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
268
2699.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
270 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
271 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
272 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
273 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
274 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
275 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
276 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
277 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
278 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
279 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
280 the CLIPBOARD selection.
281 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
282 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
283 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
284 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
285 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
286 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
287
2889.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
289 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
290 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
291 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
292 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
293 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
294 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
295 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
296 function.
297 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
298 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
299
3009.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
301 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
302
3039.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
304 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
305 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
306 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
307 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
308 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
309 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
310 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
311 Münnich).
312 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
313 are disabled.
314
3159.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
316 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
317 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
318 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
319 Hemmer).
320 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
321 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
322 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
323 patch by Jan Larres).
324 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
325 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
326 as diagnosed by clang.
327 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
328 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
329 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
330 nickfailure@gmail.com).
331 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
332 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
333 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
334 for details.
335 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
336 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
337 which show up in -help etc.
338 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
339 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
340 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
341 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
342 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
343 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
344 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
345 - remove support for libafterimage.
346 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
347 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
348 libptytty instead.
349 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
350 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
351 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
352 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
353 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
354
3559.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
356 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
357 thinks thats an error.
358 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
359 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
360 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
361 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
362 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
363 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
364 and destination in composite operations.
365 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
366 for tabs.
367 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
368 Sung Pae).
369 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
370 - fix -C option on solaris.
371
3729.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
373 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
374 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
375 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
376 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
