10 | 3.7 Tue Aug 17 04:22:25 CEST 2004 |
|
|
11 | - new configure option --enable-iso14755. |
|
|
12 | - full iso 14755 conformance (at least I claim so :). |
|
|
13 | - extended the FAQ section in the manpage. |
|
|
14 | - fix OverTheSpot and OffTheSpot editing, which was broken since ages, |
|
|
15 | due to no fontset being available. The fontset used is a very rough |
|
|
16 | approximation to the rxvt font, though. This fixes the |
|
|
17 | "cannot create input context" in most cases. |
|
|
18 | - fix coordinates used for Over && OffTheSpot editing to fit directly |
|
|
19 | at the cursor (Over) or into the top line (Off). |
|
|
20 | - reset SIGHUP and SIGPIPE handlers to default values (they were |
|
|
21 | previously being ignored, causing programs not to exit on windoe |
|
|
22 | close). |
|
|
23 | - implemented simple overlays for feedback messages. believe it or |
|
|
24 | not, this was a major blocker in implementign tabbed termianls. |
|
|
25 | - fix compiling with --disable-frills (Adam Sampson). |
|
|
26 | - clarify bold docs in README.unicode (Adam Sampson). |
|
|
27 | - fix crash on window close when the input method or context |
|
|
28 | could not be created. |
|
|
29 | - add work around for badly written programs (see debian bug |
|
|
30 | #202497). This is _not_ a bug in rxvt but rather a race |
|
|
31 | condition in other programs (e.g. jed). It works by forcefully |
|
|
32 | sending SIGWINCH when rxvt sees the first output from the |
|
|
33 | command. This workaround isn't perfect (a slight cost to |
|
|
34 | wellbehaving programs who need to resize twice), but it usually |
|
|
35 | works. |
|
|
36 | - set correct pixel size in struct winsize. |
|
|
37 | - document more escape sequences. |
|
|
38 | - fix leftover macros and a few minor doc glitches in rxvt(1). |
|
|
39 | - work around bash's assumption that stepping into the middle of a |
|
|
40 | character is a sensible operation. |
|
|
41 | - fix some corner cases in autowrap handling. |
|
|
42 | - remove various useless make cruft, renamed files to better |
|
|
43 | reflect on their function, renamed many variables. |
|
|
44 | - fixed printscreen functionality, as noted by Jinesh Choksi. |
|
|
45 | - fix a problem where redraws of double-width characters sometimes |
|
|
46 | made the last character draw with normal width (especially visible |
|
|
47 | with selections). |
|
|
48 | |
|
|
49 | 3.6 Sat Aug 14 04:55:26 CEST 2004 |
|
|
50 | - SECURITY FIX: rxvtd kept open filehandles to other terminal |
|
|
51 | windows when spawning children. Actual risk is low (attacker |
|
|
52 | needs access to a local shell window). |
|
|
53 | - implemented parts 5.1 and 5.2 of ISO 14755 (i.e. hold down |
|
|
54 | Ctrl+Shift and enter hex numbers. space commits it as a unicode |
|
|
55 | character, or press and release Crl+Shift and then enter a |
|
|
56 | function key to get it's picture). patches for 5.3 (or 5.4 with |
|
|
57 | a little window or so) would be welcome. |
|
|
58 | - fixed large pastes (INCR selections, debian bug #191456). |
|
|
59 | - fixed longstanding bug in which rxvtd crashed when |
|
|
60 | a message was logged after startup (a rare case). |
|
|
61 | - got rid of yodl completely by converting to pod. |
|
|
62 | - integrated the FAQ into the manpage. In the future, more will be |
|
|
63 | added there. |
|
|
64 | - reference documentation is now installed as rxvt(7). |
|
|
65 | - rxvt(7) now contains README.configure, which is autogenerated. |
|
|
66 | - fix memory leak in insecure mode on certain display echos. |
|
|
67 | - report sequences now report empty strings in secure mode |
|
|
68 | instead of being ignored. |
|
|
69 | - enable some report sequences even in secure mode, such as colour |
|
|
70 | queries, as they are harmless(tm). |
|
|
71 | - rxvt-unicode will now try to find a matching xft font if it can't |
|
|
72 | find a matching font from the fallback list. It might look ugly, |
|
|
73 | but if a xft font with our character exists, rxvt will find it. |
|
|
74 | - moved FreeMono to the very back of the fallback list, as some |
|
|
75 | people complain it looks ugly. This is a no-win situation, though. |
|
|
76 | - fixed sourceforge bug 998970, reported against aterm: |
|
|
77 | "crash on -sl 0 on super small windows". |
|
|
78 | - decreased memory and code size when !--enable-transparency. |
|
|
79 | - SYNCCVS. backported changes done to rxvt, except for Color_ufbg, |
|
|
80 | which I think is better done through fading, and libW11, which |
|
|
81 | needs testing anyways. |
|
|
82 | - more complete compile options help output. |
|
|
83 | - Provide linear scaled colour cubes for 256 colour mode. |
|
|
84 | Pass them through as rgbi rather than rgb so that Xlib can |
|
|
85 | provide gamma (from per visual intensity lists) rather than |
|
|
86 | providing constant gamma ourselves. Noticed by and ideas from |
|
|
87 | Christopher Casey <realchriscasey@hotmail.com> |
|
|
88 | - minor doc fix. |
|
|
89 | |
|
|
90 | 3.5 Wed Aug 11 00:31:34 CEST 2004 |
|
|
91 | - UPGRADE ADVISED: rxvt did wake up 100 times per second. did not |
|
|
92 | show in my top (linux...), but it's extremely annoying that I |
|
|
93 | released it with that bug. :( Fixed. |
|
|
94 | - use memove instead of for-loop for large scrollback buffer copies. |
|
|
95 | speeds up large scrollback buffers (on systems with reasonable |
|
|
96 | memmove :) |
|
|
97 | - minor cleanups. |
|
|
98 | - removed ~ from default cutchars, in accordance with the manpage |
|
|
99 | (debian bug #169415). |
|
|
100 | - fix a race condition on exit (debian bug #197265). |
|
|
101 | - change prio/next scrolling modifier handling (debian bug #226386). |
|
|
102 | - updated configure script to current autoconf standards. |
|
|
103 | - updated config.guess. |
|
|
104 | |
|
|
105 | 3.4 Fri Aug 6 19:34:29 CEST 2004 |
|
|
106 | - fix inheritpixmap transparency border code. |
|
|
107 | - fix tinting transparency border code, also experimentally |
|
|
108 | make some scrollbars transparent (e.g. plain, my favourite style :). |
|
|
109 | - imported aterm shading code (faster and still portable). |
|
|
110 | - changed interpretation and usage of shading (-sh). |
|
|
111 | - fixed blinking underlined and negative text. |
|
|
112 | - disable slow link support on connections using unix domain sockets, |
|
|
113 | speeding up scrolling immensely. |
|
|
114 | - various other optimizations. |
|
|
115 | - new borderLess switch (ewmh-compliant), by Mikael Magnusson. |
|
|
116 | |
|
|
117 | 3.3 Sat Jul 31 15:15:59 CEST 2004 |
|
|
118 | - some doc updates (Eduard Bloch). |
|
|
119 | - use faster inheritpixmap method when tinting color not set. |
|
|
120 | - fix pixmap offset when tinting (reported by Eduard Bloch). |
|
|
121 | - new -sh option by Mikael Magnusson. |
|
|
122 | - off-focus-fading (--enable-fading) support (patch by |
|
|
123 | Mikael Magnusson). |
|
|
124 | - cursor now set correctly on --disable-blank (reported by |
|
|
125 | Mikael Magnusson). |
|
|
126 | - better (and non-crashing) slipwheeling (Mikael Magnusson). |
|
|
127 | - solaris 2.8 portability changes (reported by Colin Marquardt). |
|
|
128 | - disable-xim now really disables xim code. |
|
|
129 | |
|
|
130 | 3.2 Mon Jul 26 19:57:32 CEST 2004 |
|
|
131 | - support real bold fonts (patch by Adam Sampson <azz@us-lot.org>), |
|
|
132 | if specified in the font list (and enabled by -rb). |
|
|
133 | - fixed --enable-keepscrolling and --enable-selectionscrolling, which |
|
|
134 | was broken since 1.8. Patch by Hans de Goede <j.w.r.degoede@hhs.nl>. |
|
|
135 | - fixed --enable-slipwheeling, see above. |
|
|
136 | - sequences ended by ST can now contain any octet by quoting it |
|
|
137 | with ^V (SYN). |
|
|
138 | - 8-bit-controls disabled by default (compiletime option). |
|
|
139 | |
|
|
140 | 3.1 Sat Jun 26 23:38:07 CEST 2004 |
|
|
141 | - set default backspace sequence to "DEC" (which defaults to \177) |
|
|
142 | as opposed to \010 as before, which was incorrect (ahem :). |
|
|
143 | - updated doc/etc/rxvt.* to reflect the change. This brings rxvt |
|
|
144 | in line with many existing rxvt terminfo and termcap entries as |
|
|
145 | well as with other terminal emulators. |
|
|
146 | - fix a segfault when trying to set a nonexistant locale |
|
|
147 | (reported by elmex). |
|
|
148 | - find more fonts by default for japanese. |
|
|
149 | - the internal border wasn't always cleared. This is fixed by moving |
|
|
150 | the window relative to it's frame and simplifies a lot of code, too. |
|
|
151 | - fixed quite hard to find scrollbar colour bug, reported by Eduard |
|
|
152 | Bloch. |
|
|
153 | |
|
|
154 | 3.0 Mon May 10 20:47:23 CEST 2004 |
|
|
155 | - experimental flickerfree resize mode (I tried to get even |
|
|
156 | less flickering with SouthWestGravity but couldn't get it to work, |
|
|
157 | sorry). |
|
|
158 | - c++-ify (or at least make it compile with g++-3.4, which should |
|
|
159 | make it a little bit more correct c++). |
|
|
160 | |
|
|
161 | 2.9 Sat May 8 19:13:41 CEST 2004 |
|
|
162 | - fix some minor doc issues + some generated doc files are now |
|
|
163 | getting distributed (closes debian bug #246035). |
|
|
164 | - minor i18n issue fixes. |
|
|
165 | |
|
|
166 | 2.8 Thu Apr 8 22:44:36 CEST 2004 |
|
|
167 | - replace PF_LOCAL by PF_UNIX (portability). |
|
|
168 | - try to detect -lnsl and -lsocket (portability). |
|
|
169 | - fix some minor bugs. |
|
|
170 | |
|
|
171 | 2.7 Mon Apr 5 02:11:15 CEST 2004 |
|
|
172 | - this version should now work fine with TERM=xterm, except |
|
|
173 | for the keymappings. |
|
|
174 | - don't leave the X or rxvtd sockets open in child processes. |
|
|
175 | (inherited fd's stay open - different to rxvt). |
|
|
176 | - xterm: implemented OSC3, set/get window property. get is an |
|
|
177 | extension and is slightly ugly. |
|
|
178 | - removed --disable-swapscreen and SCROLL_ON_NO_SECONDARY and |
|
|
179 | replaced them by runtime-configurable options secondaryScreen and |
|
|
180 | secondaryScroll (-ssr and -ssc) (see debian bug #237673). |
|
|
181 | - close down terminal window when child exits. (debian bug #241267). |
|
|
182 | - xterm: enable seperate mouse bg colour setting. |
|
|
183 | - re-enable mouse cursor colours again, fixing colours when fg/bg are |
|
|
184 | overwritten (as is common). |
|
|
185 | - xterm: correctly implement privmodes 1047, 1048, 1049. |
|
|
186 | - ported to solaris by elmar@math.uni-bremen.de. |
|
|
187 | |
|
|
188 | 2.6 Fri Apr 2 03:24:10 CEST 2004 |
|
|
189 | - minor doc corrections. |
|
|
190 | - WARNING: changed menu sequence from ESC ] 10 to ESC ] 703 to |
|
|
191 | avoid clashes with xterm. |
|
|
192 | - changed OSC701/OSC702 sequence to return standard escaped reports. |
|
|
193 | - xterm: make set window colour and other requests report window |
|
|
194 | colour when arg is "?". |
|
|
195 | - enable colour tinting of "transparent" backgrounds. |
|
|
196 | - stop ST sequences earlier, as we now react on 0x90 and thus |
|
|
197 | cause conditions more often that look like locks but are, in |
|
|
198 | fact, just rxvt waiting for a ST/BEL etc. |
|
|
199 | - re-enabled most of the "dangerous" echo escapes, but only |
|
|
200 | when -insecure is specified as option or resource (see reference). |
|
|
201 | (FRILLS). |
|
|
202 | - disables sleep(1) on transparency updates on default. |
|
|
203 | - fixes to make it compile better on solaris 2.9 (at least). |
|
|
204 | asprintf replacement is still missing(!). |
|
|
205 | - set _NET_WM_PID. |
|
|
206 | |
|
|
207 | 2.5 Sun Mar 28 04:05:51 CEST 2004 |
|
|
208 | - the usual sprinkled little code cleanups. |
|
|
209 | - support more 8-bit controls. |
|
|
210 | - more informative error messages. |
|
|
211 | - fix some minor memleaks and possible memory corruptions. |
|
|
212 | - the use of exception handling allowed the following improvements: |
|
|
213 | - no longer block when waiting for completion of escape sequences |
|
|
214 | (e.g. printf '\e';sleep 3;printf 'c' will no longer block). |
|
|
215 | - rxvtc usage errors should no longer kill rxvtd (debian bug #237510). |
|
|
216 | |
|
|
217 | 2.4 Tue Mar 16 07:06:51 CET 2004 |
|
|
218 | - fix stupid double-free() bug on exit. |
|
|
219 | - implement xterm private mode 1049. |
|
|
220 | - fix manpages (debian bug #236824). |
|
|
221 | - removed old selection style completely. |
|
|
222 | - selection works _better_ for non-8-bit and double-width chars. |
|
|
223 | - remove native->unicode translation tables. they aren't used anymore. |
|
|
224 | reduces binary and distro size a bit. |
|
|
225 | - add string representation for JIS X 0213:2000 so these fonts can |
|
|
226 | be used from within rxvt. |
|
|
227 | - less buggy complete set of line-drawing-characters (0x2500-0x259f). |
|
|
228 | |
|
|
229 | 2.3 Sun Mar 14 19:00:07 CET 2004 |
|
|
230 | - code cleanup release. |
|
|
231 | - fix compile problems without --enable-combining. |
|
|
232 | - fix segfault when DISPLAY cannot be opened. |
|
|
233 | - removed HOTKEY_CTRL and HOTKEY_SHIFT, ACS_*, FONT0_IDX, |
|
|
234 | MAX_NFONTS. UNICODE and UTF8 defines and references from |
|
|
235 | all files. |
|
|
236 | - default config now reads an app-defaults file even without |
|
|
237 | --enable-xgetdefaults. |
|
|
238 | |
|
|
239 | 2.2 Thu Mar 11 01:41:56 CET 2004 |
|
|
240 | - implement autocompositing of characters by either using an existing |
|
|
241 | precomposed unicode character or by graphical overlay. this is |
|
|
242 | also used to store characters >16bit without --enable-unicode3. |
|
|
243 | - selection now based on wchar_t, so that it can offer UTF-8 |
|
|
244 | selections even in locales unable to represent full unicode. |
|
|
245 | - tis620-2529 is, of course, thai, not vietnamese... |
|
|
246 | - a typoe prevented characters >65535 to be stored properly. |
|
|
247 | - wcwidth is unreliable in non-unicode-locales on GNU/Linux. |
|
|
248 | working around this fixes line-drawing characters in non-utf-8 mode. |
|
|
249 | - improved rounding when emulating line-drawing characters. |
|
|
250 | - implement continuation lines in xresource parsing when |
|
|
251 | --disable-xgetdefault. |
|
|
252 | - changed locale-setting esc-sequence from code 9 to code 701. |
|
|
253 | also added 702 that returns the font selected for a specific |
|
|
254 | unicode character. |
|
|
255 | - no longer set XA_CUT_BUFFER0. this is confusing and clients WILL |
|
|
256 | get it wrong. |
|
|
257 | - don't use XTextStyle for XA_TEXT, instead use XStdICCTextStyle. |
|
|
258 | |
|
|
259 | 2.1 Wed Mar 3 21:48:39 CET 2004 |
|
|
260 | - NOTE: the name of the binary and ressources were changed in |
|
|
261 | this version, see README.configure if you want the old |
|
|
262 | settings. |
|
|
263 | - added plain "big5" encoding into CN. |
|
|
264 | - make cns11643 and big5* encodings actually visible to rxvt. |
|
|
265 | - fix a bug when a multibyte character fell onto a buffer boundary, |
|
|
266 | causing the incomplete character to be presented twice to |
|
|
267 | mbrtowc. |
|
|
268 | - more robust encoding name matching. |
|
|
269 | - fix cursor placement on multibyte characters. |
|
|
270 | - when overwriting wide with narrow chars, pad with spaces. |
|
|
271 | - fix various refresh and display issues for wide chars. |
|
|
272 | - remove multibyte_cursor hack (it was a hack) and associated |
|
|
273 | resources and docs. |
|
|
274 | - fixed memory corruption bug with XLFD fontname parsing. |
|
|
275 | |
|
|
276 | 2.0 Sun Feb 29 23:59:58 CET 2004 |
|
|
277 | - do not blink text when background colour is not set explicitly. |
|
|
278 | - some doc cleanup |
|
|
279 | - configure cleanup |
|
|
280 | - viscii enabled by default |
|
|
281 | - better support for non-g++-3.2+ systems (tested with g++-2.95). |
|
|
282 | |
|
|
283 | 1.91 Fri Feb 27 03:57:44 CET 2004 |
|
|
284 | - build fixes for !xft and !im, reported by various people. |
|
|
285 | |
|
|
286 | 1.9 Wed Feb 25 16:46:05 CET 2004 |
