48TODO: compose chars should be rendered "in one go" for xft. maybe. possibly. 5108:11:50 <dg> it seems to depend a bit on setup, two in a row maybe needed

5307:28:56 <dg> schmorp: try printf '\e]50;\a\xe7\xaf\xad'
5407:29:15 <dg> i'm guessing the builtin font doesn't have that character (篭)
5507:29:40 <dg> on one machine with 9.30 that segfaults, with what looks like a null pointer deref
5607:29:58 <dg> on latest dev, but a different machine it hangs
5707:33:26 <dg> hmm, and on openbsd it doesn't even hang with that reduction, but the actual case the fuzzer
58 found does hang

61TODO: nmeum reports that when the wm resizes urxvt while it opens, the prompt is now somewhere in the middle
62of the window, rather than near the top. this behaviour change wss part of the wrapmode fix, and should normally
63prevent from readline jumping around on resizes. running urxvt with the exact geometry that the wm will assign "fixed" this.

66 - fix reference counting of values returned by some perl bindings.
67 - fix OSC responses with 7-bit ST (reported by Stuart Henderson).
68 - change the encoding of buttons 8-11 in mouse reporting
69 sequences to match xterm's and enable reporting of release
70 events for them (patch by Pierre-Marc Fournier).
71 - clamp coordinates in mouse reporting sequences to the number
72 of rows and columns (patch by Nick Hanley).
73 - added Alt_L/ALt_R and updated some keys in iso 14755 5.2 mode.
74 - perl 5.38 does not handle empty locale names, use "C" instead
75 (patch by sxzzsf).
76 - add emoji test character, so that emoji-only fonts can be used without
77 any tricks.
78
799.31 Mon 02 Jan 2023 18:13:16 CET
80 - implement a fix for CVE-2022-4170 (reported and analyzed by David Leadbeater).
81 While present in version 9.30, it should not be exploitable. It is exploitable
82 in versions 9.25 and 9.26, at least, and allows anybody controlling output to
83 the terminal to execute arbitrary code in the urxvt process.
84 - the background extension no longer requires off focus fading support
85 to be compiled in.
86 - the confirm-paste extension now offers a choice between pasting the original
87 or a sanitized version, and also frees up memory used to store the paste text
88 immediately.
89 - fix compiling without frills.
90 - fix rewrapMode: never.
91 - fix regression that caused urxvt to no longer emit responses
92 to OSC color queries other than OSC 4 ones.
93 - fix regression that caused urxvt to no longer process OSC 705.
94 - restore CENTURY to be 1900 to "improve" year parsing in urclock (or at
95 least go back to the old interpretation) (based on an analysis
96 by Tommy Pettersson).
97 - exec_async (used e.g. by the matcher extension to spawn processes) now
98 sets the URXVT_EXT_WINDOWID variable to the window id of the terminal.
99 - implement -fps option/refreshRate resource to change the default 60 Hz
100 maximum refresh limiter. I always wanted an fps option, but had to
101 wait for a user requesting it.
102 - new clickthrough extension.
103 - perl now also requires Xext.
104 - X region and shape extension functionality has been exposed to perl
105 extensions.
106 - RENDER extension no longer depends on ENABLE_XIM_ONTHESPOT.
107
1089.30 Sat 27 Nov 2021 21:07:09 CET
109 - the background extension did not initialise properly when automatically
110 loaded via the OSC.
111 - new "on_attach" hook type implemented, to initialise late-loading
112 extensions.
113
1149.29 Mon 22 Nov 2021 18:07:14 CET
115 - libptytty (http://dist.schmorp.de/libptytty/) is now a required
116 external dependency.
117 - enable confirm-paste extension by default, can be disabled by e.g.
118 URxvt.perl-ext: -confirm-paste
119 - Key bindings specified with the -keysym option or with resources of
120 the form URxvt*keysym work again. Such resources, as opposed to
121 resources of the form URxvt.keysym, were not officially allowed but
122 accepted, so ignoring them is considered a regression.
123 - new option/resource -rm/rewrapMode, which sets the line rewrap
124 mode to auto, never or always.
125 - new option/resource -dpb/disablePasteBrackets, which can be used to
126 disable bracketed paste mode sequences, as more and more programs
127 abuse these sequences (typically in the name of security, but these
128 sequences are not improving security). Also, bracketed paste mode
129 is now under frills.
130 - add manpage for urclock.
131 - confirm-paste wrongly considered brackets as ctrlchars (patch by
132 Jakub Wilk, debian bug #995244).
133 - if urxvt cannot detect a good estimate for font width (because a font does
134 not contain latin characters at all for example), it will now fall
135 back to xft's max_advance_width, which works well with some fonts. It
136 currently will warn about this.
49 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat 137 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat
50 them as zero-width characters. 138 them as zero-width characters.
139 - change combining character architecture to allow fonts to handle
140 combining sequences on their own. This could allow future renderers
141 to be more intelligent about these sequences.
142 - use the previous enhancement to allow unicode characters outside of the
143 BMP to be rendered even without --enable-unicode3, as long as an
144 xft with the character is configured.
145 It's recommended to stay with disabled unicode3 even more now.
146 - freetype/xft have been verified to return nonsensical offsets for
147 combining characters. urxvt tries to compensate to some extent,
148 but diacritics will be slightly off in many cases, and far off in
149 some cases (e.g. input mono).
150 - when checking for overlap/careful handling, take non-basefont
151 character shifts into account.
152 - extensions can now request autoloading on OSC and Perl OSC sequences,
153 implement this for the background, clipboard-osc and overlay-osc
154 extensions.
155 - the background extension will now be autoloaded when the OSC 20 or 705
156 sequence is received.
157 - added OSC 776 sequence to return character cell width, height and font
158 ascent, which is useful when using urxvt as slave to calculate window
159 size form or to row/column count.
160 - matcher extension documentation now points out some requirements for
161 regular expressions. the default url matching regex will now try
162 to match IRLs in addition to URLs.
163 - The view_start perl method now scrolls to the bottom also when the
164 argument is greater than 0.
165 - eval scroll actions now scroll to the bottom when scrolling down and
166 there are less lines to scroll than the ones requested (reported by
167 Stephen Talley).
51 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions. 168 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions.
52 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive 169 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive
53 loading. 170 loading.
54 - update precompose table to uinicode 13.0. 171 - update precompose table to unicode 13.0.
55 - update charset conversion tables to perl 5.32 (this only affected 172 - update charset conversion tables to perl 5.32 (this only affected
56 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode). 173 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode).
174 - unicode characters > 0x100000 were not handled correctly w.r.t.
175 font rendering.
176 - replace bitstream vera by dejavu sans, as it has replaced the former
177 almost everywhere.
178 - urxvt will now try tic -x first and only fall back to tic without -x
179 when tic -x fails.
180 - fix urclock not erasing the old date on the clock face, causing
181 overdraw, plus a host of other small fixes and improvements.
182 - shave off over 1K of code size from urclock by replacing the sine table
183 with a slightly less accurate fixed point approximation.
184 - do not specify indentation with =over in pod, this is no longer
185 needed with semi-modern pod tools and gives the formatter more
186 stylistic freedom.
187 - background extension did not set the "size-sensitive" flag
188 when repeat mode wasn't normal.
189 - extensions are now subjected to "use strict 'subs'".
190 - avoid crashing when xft successfully opens a font but then somehow
191 can't lock the face.
192 - locale_decode/encode api methods now pass through undef unchanged.
193 - fix undefined behaviour in the perl hook function, as diagnosed by clang.
