Comparing rxvt-unicode/Changes (file contents):
Revision 1.194 by root, Tue Aug 17 02:23:39 2004 UTC vs.
Revision 1.481 by root, Tue Jan 3 18:25:33 2006 UTC

1Lines marked with "xterm:" indicate either xterm features ported to rxvt 1rxvt-unicode changelog <= google-friendly title
2or changed rxvt behaviour to make it more compatible to xterm (usually
3xfree86's xterm).
4 2
5TODO: implement xterm keymap option, for full TERM=xterm compliance. 3TODO: harmonize --disable-options into position-dependent options.
6TODO: multibyte support for setwmname et al. 4TODO: after requesting the selection and getting a timeout, no further requests will be sent.
7TODO: there are other todo items, but they are not in this file. 5TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts
8TODO: tabbed windows 6TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
7TODO: http://www120.pair.com/mccarthy/nextstep/intro.htmld/Workspace.html is the correct nextstep look.
8WISH: OnTheSpot editing, or maybe switch to miiiiiiif
9WISH: just for fun, do shade and tint with XRender.
10WISH: make builtin character glyphs optional
11
12 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty (most BSDs, not GNU/Linux),
13 permissions were not correctly updated on the tty device and
14 were left as world-readable and world-writable.
15 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
16 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
17 by Mikachu)
18 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
19 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
20 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
21 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
22 - fix directory permissions on install.
23 - improved sched_yield support.
24
256.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
26 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
27 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
28 Chuck Blake.
29 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
30 obscure the mouse cursor position.
31 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
32 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
33 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
34 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
35 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
36 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
37 transfer efficiency.
38 - further minor cleanups.
39
406.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
41 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
42 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
43 while the user still drags.
44 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
45 not drawn correctly.
46 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
47 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
48 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
49 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
50 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
51 stripping whitespace.
52 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
53 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
54
556.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
56 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
57 - enable slow link support by default.
58 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
59 (also a bug in original rxvt).
60 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
61 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
62 partial patch).
63 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
64 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
65 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
66 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
67 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
68 - implement -hold option.
69 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
70 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
71 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
72 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
73 - slight overall speed improvements.
74 - considerably improved code clarity.
75 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
76 buffer.
77
785.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
79 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
80 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
81 (matters only for rxvtd).
82 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
83 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
84 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
85
865.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
87 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
88 If you want the old behaviour, try:
89 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
90 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
91 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
92 percentage by 100-percentage.
93 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
94 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
95 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
96 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
97 windows.
98 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
99 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
100 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
101 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
102 - replaced INSTALL file.
103
1045.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
105 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
106 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
107 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
108 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
109 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
110 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
111 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
112 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
113
1145.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
115 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
116 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
117 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
118 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
119 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
120 Affects display in iso14755 box.
121 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
122 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
123 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
124 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
125 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
126 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
127 cutting pieces off of characters.
128 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
129 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
130 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
131 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
132 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
133 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
134 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
135
1365.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
137 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
138 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
139 meaning of the given key.
140 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
141 (patch by Martin Edlman).
142
1435.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
144 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
145 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
146 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
147 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
148 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
149 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
150 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
151 to disable it.
152
1535.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
154 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
155 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
156 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
157 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
158 with modifiers.
159 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
160 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
161 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
162 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
163 and clear the scrollback buffer.
164
1655.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
166 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
167 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
168 a command.
169 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
170 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
171 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
172 in Perl/Gtk2.
173 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
174 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
175 (reported by Mikael Magnusson).
176 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
177 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
178 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
179 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
180 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
181 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
182 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
183 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
184 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
185 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
186 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
187 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
188 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
189 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed
190 rxvt-unicode).
191 - get rid of the intpro files.
192
1935.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005
194 - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one
195 for empty keymaps which could result in crashes
196 (Kuang-che Wu).
197 - new option: -embed (frills). somebody could write a simple
198 tk script to make a tab'able terminal now...
199 - only warn on X errors and _try_ to continue (frills).
200 - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow.
201 - after deciding that LSM is dead, remove all traces of it,
202 along with other, similar, cleanups.
203 - _try_ to react sensibly to some non-monotonic time changes.
204 - don't crash in urxvtc when getcwd fails (reported by Paco-Paco).
205 - tweak font searching algorithm a bit to be faster and more
206 compatible with older rxvt-unicode versions when multiple fonts
207 match (reported by Paco-Paco).
208 - urxvtd tries to stay in "/" whenever possible.
209
2105.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005
211 - document a race-free hack to start urxvtd.
212 - document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt.
213 - bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with
214 Xt, and document it in rxvt(1).
215 - correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault,
216 and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for
217 his patience and time in tracking this down).
218 - bring own resource parsing more in line with X resource parsing,
219 most notably, don't remove double quotes.
220 - compile fix for freebsd (no ut_id) (Thierry Thomas).
221 - clean up utmp and pty on X I/O errors and signals (idea
222 by Joël Riou).
223 - "un"document -xrm, it never really worked, was only
224 available with --enable-xgetdefault, is not necessary
225 and is surprisingly hard to implement.
226 - shaved off some code segment size.
227 - various code cleanups.
228 - more keysym-mapping fixes.
229
2304.9 Thu Feb 3 09:52:03 CET 2005
231 - nuke out utmp entries completely. Should be fixed in
232 original rxvt, too. (reported by James Michael Fultz).
233 - resizes wil now correctly refresh the displayed text when
234 -pixmap is active.
235 - new option/resource imFont.
236 - document --tripleclickwords/-tcw.
237 - select logical instead of physical lines when doing a triple-click.
238 - reordered help listing to group similar options together.
239 - handle SIGINT the same way as SIGTERM (reported by Joël Riou).
240 - fix a bug introduced while applying the keyboard patch
241 (WU Fengguang).
242 - document all window-op sequences (rxvt.7.) and more keysym
243 examples (rxvt.1).
244 - removed src/test completely.
245 - renamed keysym 'proto:'-prefix to 'command:'.
246
2474.8 Tue Jan 18 02:23:57 CET 2005
248 - added a patch by WU Fengguang that makes the keyboard
249 highly configurable (e.g. locale changes, custom escape
250 sequences, and more). See keysym resource in rxvt(1).
251 - remove default key sequence for unknown keys again, as this
252 can be achieved by customizing the keyboard now.
253 - fix some freeing problems when destroying the rxvt_display,
254 resulting in segfaults.
255 - don't crash when the saved cursor position doesn't fit on the
256 screen (wrong assert in original rxvt, reported by ikaro).
257 - fix signed/unsigned bugs on wc<->mb conversions.
258 - reset slipwheel scrolling speed when reaching the top or bottom
259 (Mikael Magnusson).
260 - for core fonts, use ascent + descent when a font is loaded,
261 and PIXEL_SIZE when not. when loading a font, iterate until a
262 font has been found that _really_ fits the height (reported and
263 tested by Olivier Wittenberg).
264 - set IUTF8 input flag, when defined (linux-2.6.5+).
265 - only define _XOPEN_SOURCE on solaris.
266 - autogenerate src/* dependency list.
267 - fixed linespace option, which ought to work now (and is dependent
268 on frills, not on it's own configure option).
269 - include pty.h, if available (cygwin).
270 - removed W11 directory from dist, it wasn't used anyway.
271 - initialize the locale much earlier.
272 - fixed two tiny per-instance memory leaks.
273
2744.7 Wed Dec 29 20:54:24 CET 2004
275 - fix a bug in the event logic that could cause the temrinal to be
276 black on initial startup.
277 - do NOT call XCloseIM, ever. This causes way to many crashes due to
278 races in the protocol and within Xlib.
279 - map iso-left-tab to the same sequence as shift-tab.
280 - generate a unique escape sequence for many unknown keys, such as
281 additional multimedia keys.
282 - mask out high (non-unicode) bits on wide characters, to cope with
283 implementations that store tag info in the high bits.
284
2854.6 Thu Dec 16 07:54:23 CET 2004
286 - try very hard not to exhaust the kernel tty buffers, even
287 if it slows down large pastes and is only cosmetic.
288 - streamline atom and xft color allocation to reduce startup
289 time (12.8s -> 7.8s on my dsl). Still, doing it with only 2-3
290 turnarounds would be much faster, but impossible to implement(?).
291 - implement underlineColor resource when ENABLE_FRILLS.
292 - iom left it's signal pipe handle open in the child
293 process. Fortunately not security-relevant as the pipe data gets
294 ignored.
295 - do not use XSETROOTPMAP_ID anymore, support ESETROOT_PMAP_ID
296 instead.
297 - fix a crash in rxvtd when the last window was being closed
298 (reported by hednod).
299 - fix an unlikely memory leak.
300 - fix atom name enumeration.
301
3024.5 Mon Dec 13 07:47:16 CET 2004
303 - fix an extremely nasty bug in utf8-conversion. upgrade is advised.
304 - completely re-wrote selection pasting. This should fix garbled
305 incomplete characters at 32k boundaries and too-short INCR
306 selections, and more. Increases memory requirements considerably
307 for large selections, but that seems unavoidable.
308
3094.4 Sun Dec 12 22:10:06 CET 2004
310 - rewrote handling of default-char width.
311 - implement _NET_WM_NAME et al., and also use UTF8_STRING
312 for the xterm property esc. sequence. Allows i18n window
313 titles etc.
314 - SMART_WINDOW_TITLE removed, pls. complain if you need this.
315 - added GBK encoding (formidable patch by WU Fengguang).
316 - fixed a bug in the transparency code.
317 - upgraded iom.[Ch].
318 - force slower (but more responsive) transparency update.
319 - fix off-by-one bug with wide characters at the end of a line,
320 which got partially overwritten by spaces.
321 - as xlib is completely broken with respect to utf-8 handling
322 and nobody is going to fix it, that part has been re-implemented.
323 should fix most paste problems between apps that use UTF8 encoding
324 and rxvt running in a lesser-supported locale (thanks to Robin Redeker
325 for writing utf8towcs). Only enabled with ENABLE_FRILLS.
326 - darwin compile fix by Ethan Blanton.
327 - fix the colour of the underline, which was rather random before.
328
3294.3 Sat Dec 4 04:58:37 CET 2004
330 - unapply the "emulated graphical chars. respect wcwidth" patch.
331 obviously in locales not having these characters they should
332 still have a width. Solve it correctly by not relying on wcwidth.
333 Note to self: do not ever apply patches without checking them
334 thoroughly.
335 - updated .spec file, it's included in the release tarball
336 now, too.
337
3384.2 Wed Dec 1 03:30:22 CET 2004
339 - make emulated graphical characters respect wcwidth (Kuang-che Wu).
340 - remove debugging code that caused major slowdowns
341 on high-latency networks.
342 - wide characters shift the correct number of characters
343 in insert mode now. Reported by Gunnar Ritter.
344 - doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file contributed by Ville Herva.
345 - make storage of tab movements as characters optional
346 on the -ptab option and pastableTabs: resource. On request
347 by Gunnar Ritter.
348 - fix a bug where :size= argument for xft fonts was ignored
349 or used incorrectly. Reported by Ville Herva.
350
3514.1 Sun Nov 21 21:10:19 CET 2004
352 - save and restore cursor position in secondary screen regardless of
353 -ssc/-ssr settings.
354 - fix some 64-bit bugs that lead to crashes with certain other
355 programs like vncviewer (original rxvt also affected).
356 - added doc/podtbl to the dist tarball.
357 - add compile fix for darwin.
358 - configure fix for transparency without tinting.
359 - changed CN to ZH _really_ everywhere.
360 - upgraded iom.[Ch].
361
3624.0 Mon Sep 13 01:10:26 CEST 2004
363 - turn off autohinting for some badly-hinted fallback fonts.
364 - mnaapge tpyo crorcetoins by Bastian Kleineidam.
365 - implemented rectangular selections (button+meta), experimental.
366 - implement race-free signal handling in iom.C.
367 - use iom.C signal handling to avoid races in signal handling.
368 - use default action on SIGINT and SIGQUIT, instead of terminating.
369 - "the return of the 100 times per second refresh bug".
370 ... terminated by a fix.
371 - new supported preeeditType "None".
372 - added FAQ about possible compose key problems.
373 - changed CN to ZH everywhere (sorry for the confusion).
374 - move XFilterEvent up, as some input method seem to want events
375 for windows not requesting XIM. Please report if this change
376 causes any harm (specially with pointerblanking)
377 (patch by Kuang-che Wu).
378 - send the input method spot position on every refresh, not just
379 when rxvt thinks it should (which was not often enough...).
380 - fix double-wide combining characters (it might look a bit ugly,
381 though, but common cases are handled by normalization anyways).
382 - moved FAQ to rxvt(7), also made a copy into README.FAQ.
383 - fix a bug(?) in the XIM destroy callback.
384 - be more conservative when trying to register new input methods,
385 as Xlib races might make rxvt crash. When two or more
386 input methods are active, killing one probably still crashes rxvt
387 due to that bug :( Thanks a lot to Kuang-che Wu for immense help
388 in tracking this down.
389 - manpages (but not .txt and .html versions) will be patched (during
390 make install) with the correct program name and other info.
391
3923.9 Wed Aug 25 19:24:04 CEST 2004
393 - the change to unsigned int from unsigned short broke
394 many signed comparisons, resulting in failed assertions.
395
3963.8 Wed Aug 25 05:46:56 CEST 2004
397 - WARNING: TERM=rxvt-unicode is now *default* unless compiled
398 differently. A terminfo entry will automatically be compiled and
399 installed if tic is available.
400 - fixed some --disable switches that didn't work.
401 - tweaked src/features.h a bit.
402 - removed README.unicode.
403 - support select&paste of tab characters.
404 - fixed a segfault when trying to load nonexistant fonts (reported
405 by Eduard Bloch and Mikael Magnusson).
406 - fixed a long-standing rxvt bug in which rxvt failed to save
407 and restore the correct cursor position on the secondary screen.
408 - reworked rxvt-unicode terminfo to allow more efficient and less flickering
409 screen updates with curses.
410 - wide characters that are being halfway overwritten are now replaced
411 by spaces.
412 - urxvtc now transmits urxvt as default name, not urxvtc anymore
413 (likewise for other names chosen at configure time).
414 - disabled the automatic font lookup for unknown characters. xft
415 is just too slow for this to work.
416 - changed realbold code, implemented _real_ bold and italic support,
417 where _real_ means the symbiosis of what I want with what I can
418 implement. use --enable-styles.
419 - removed 256 color mode, but enable 88 colours in all modes
420 (88 to be compatible with 88 colour xterm which is widely
421 supported, and most programs assume a non-iso colourtable
422 for terminals with "odd" number of colours).
423 - added doc/etc/rxvt-unicode.terminfo which is a big overhaul
424 compared to the old rxvt terminfo.
425 - sped up xft rendering by 30% *iff* the font allows it (i.e. is
426 monospaced "enough") *and* matches the base font in width.
427 - implement positive and negative character-font caching, which
428 speeds up output immensely in case a character cannot be found
429 (only for non-bold right now).
430 - fix segfault in fading code on certain escape sequences.
431 - better default font size and style.
432 - rxvt-unicode is now much more picky about fonts not fitting
433 into the base font, but to offset this it will check each
434 single character against the base font extents and will only
435 use the characters fitting into the bounding box (+ some fudge).
436 - characters not fitting into the base boundary box will now often
437 be used anyways, but the following characters will be redrawn
438 more often to avoid pixel-droppings. This is like the original
439 rxvt pixel-dropping pass but it's much faster.
440 - scrollColor now affects plain scrollbar (Mikael Magnusson).
441 - fixed segfault in overlay code when height was larger than the
442 screen height.
443 - cursor no longer shines "through" the overlay.
444 - 7-bit ST marker detection was broken.
445 - scrollbar didn't come back sometimes when switching it
446 off/on using escape sequences (Mikael Magnusson).
447 - fix lots of colour problems with focus fading.
448 - $COLORFGBG was not set as documented.
449 - fix iso 14755 5.1 support when --enable-frills but --disable-iso14755.
450 - removed OSC 702.
451 - disabled MOUSE_REPORT_DOUBLECLICK by default, as programs seem to be
