5603:32:26 <BlueFish> Hi. I think I found a bug in special_encode in rxvtperl.xs
5703:33:37 <BlueFish> special_encode('لا') or any other string that contains 'لا' returns a disturbed string
5803:33:40 <schmorp> hi BlueFish
5903:34:10 <schmorp> whats a disturbed string?
6003:34:25 <BlueFish> for example سلام becomes ملام
6103:35:05 <BlueFish> see this issue: https://github.com/mkamensky/Text-Bidi/issues/10 I was trying to fix it
62 and after playing around for a while found out that special_encode is causing the problem
6303:35:36 <schmorp> does this happen when you compile without --enable-combining (or with --disable-combining)?
6403:37:40 <BlueFish> I don't know the one that I installed from my distro repository has this flag or not. Is
65 there anyway to check?
6603:38:49 <schmorp> rxvt --help will output a options: line at the top, whioch will list "combining"
6703:39:10 <schmorp> anyway, I don't think i will understand this at my current tiredness level, I'll have a
68 look when I have time
6903:39:26 <schmorp> are you usually around on this network, so I coulöd ask you in cas eI have questions?
7003:40:25 <BlueFish> yes combining is enabled. No I don't check IRC that much. You can reach me via email
7103:40:44 <schmorp> ok, thats fine

74 - the background extension no longer requires off focus fading support
75 to be compiled in.
76 - fix compiling without frills.
77 - fix rewrapMode: never.
78 - fix regression that caused urxvt to no longer emit responses
79 to OSC color queries other than OSC 4 ones.
80
819.30 Sat 27 Nov 2021 21:07:09 CET
82 - the background extension did not initialise properly when automatically
83 loaded via the OSC.
84 - new "on_attach" hook type implemented, to initialise late-loading
85 extensions.
86
879.29 Mon 22 Nov 2021 18:07:14 CET
88 - libptytty (http://dist.schmorp.de/libptytty/) is now a required
89 external dependency.
90 - enable confirm-paste extension by default, can be disabled by e.g.
91 URxvt.perl-ext: -confirm-paste
92 - Key bindings specified with the -keysym option or with resources of
93 the form URxvt*keysym work again. Such resources, as opposed to
94 resources of the form URxvt.keysym, were not officially allowed but
95 accepted, so ignoring them is considered a regression.
96 - new option/resource -rm/rewrapMode, which sets the line rewrap
97 mode to auto, never or always.
98 - new option/resource -dpb/disablePasteBrackets, which can be used to
99 disable bracketed paste mode sequences, as more and more programs
100 abuse these sequences (typically in the name of security, but these
101 sequences are not improving security). Also, bracketed paste mode
102 is now under frills.
103 - add manpage for urclock.
104 - confirm-paste wrongly considered brackets as ctrlchars (patch by
105 Jakub Wilk, debian bug #995244).
106 - if urxvt cannot detect a good estimate for font width (because a font does
107 not contain latin characters at all for example), it will now fall
108 back to xft's max_advance_width, which works well with some fonts. It
109 currently will warn about this.
110 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat
111 them as zero-width characters.
112 - change combining character architecture to allow fonts to handle
113 combining sequences on their own. This could allow future renderers
114 to be more intelligent about these sequences.
115 - use the previous enhancement to allow unicode characters outside of the
116 BMP to be rendered even without --enable-unicode3, as long as an
117 xft with the character is configured.
118 It's recommended to stay with disabled unicode3 even more now.
119 - freetype/xft have been verified to return nonsensical offsets for
120 combining characters. urxvt tries to compensate to some extent,
121 but diacritics will be slightly off in many cases, and far off in
122 some cases (e.g. input mono).
123 - when checking for overlap/careful handling, take non-basefont
124 character shifts into account.
125 - extensions can now request autoloading on OSC and Perl OSC sequences,
126 implement this for the background, clipboard-osc and overlay-osc
127 extensions.
128 - the background extension will now be autoloaded when the OSC 20 or 705
129 sequence is received.
130 - added OSC 776 sequence to return character cell width, height and font
131 ascent, which is useful when using urxvt as slave to calculate window
132 size form or to row/column count.
133 - matcher extension documentation now points out some requirements for
134 regular expressions. the default url matching regex will now try
135 to match IRLs in addition to URLs.
136 - The view_start perl method now scrolls to the bottom also when the
137 argument is greater than 0.
138 - eval scroll actions now scroll to the bottom when scrolling down and
139 there are less lines to scroll than the ones requested (reported by
140 Stephen Talley).
141 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions.
142 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive
143 loading.
144 - update precompose table to unicode 13.0.
145 - update charset conversion tables to perl 5.32 (this only affected
146 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode).
147 - unicode characters > 0x100000 were not handled correctly w.r.t.
148 font rendering.
149 - replace bitstream vera by dejavu sans, as it has replaced the former
150 almost everywhere.
151 - urxvt will now try tic -x first and only fall back to tic without -x
152 when tic -x fails.
153 - fix urclock not erasing the old date on the clock face, causing
154 overdraw, plus a host of other small fixes and improvements.
155 - shave off over 1K of code size from urclock by replacing the sine table
156 with a slightly less accurate fixed point approximation.
157 - do not specify indentation with =over in pod, this is no longer
158 needed with semi-modern pod tools and gives the formatter more
159 stylistic freedom.
160 - background extension did not set the "size-sensitive" flag
161 when repeat mode wasn't normal.
162 - extensions are now subjected to "use strict 'subs'".
163 - avoid crashing when xft successfully opens a font but then somehow
164 can't lock the face.
165 - locale_decode/encode api methods now pass through undef unchanged.
166 - fix undefined behaviour in the perl hook function, as diagnosed by clang.
167
1689.26 Fri May 14 19:14:14 CEST 2021
169 - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly
170 not packaged.
171
1729.25 Fri May 14 15:51:36 CEST 2021
173 - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to
174 remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as
175 urclock.
176 - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105,
177 freebsd bug #234276.
178 - do not destruct perl on exit anymore: this might fail for a variety of
179 reasons, and takes unnecessary time.
180 - remove any macros from urxvtperl manpage(s), should fix debian
181 bug 858385.
182 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
183 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
184 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
185 ext if any bg image resource/option is present (for OSC sequences to
186 work you need to enable it explicitly). The old bg image
187 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
188 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
189 - confirm-paste now checks for any ctlchars, not just newlines.
190 - searchable scrollback will now ignore bracketed paste mode sequences
191 (prompted by Daniel Gröber's patch).
47 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in 192 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in
48 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation. 193 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit
194 program can be used as a substitute).
195 - perl didn't parse rgba colours specified as an array correctly,
196 only allowing 0 and 100% intensity for each component (this affected
197 fill and tint).
198 - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle
199 multipart resources (such as "*background.expr"), for the benefit
200 of autoloading perl extensions.
49 - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security 201 - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security
50 implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5, 202 implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5,
51 and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known. 203 and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known.
