822:43 <zrajm> E.g. xterm has a couple of settings for when you select using
9 tripple-clicking (entire lines). I've become quite used to
10 "xterm*cutToBeginningOfLine: off" (which causes the first line to be
11 selected only from the beginning of the word under the cursor) and
12 "xterm*cutNewline: off" (which causes xterm not to include the newline

164.4 295.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
30 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
31 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
32 meaning of the given key.
33 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
34 (patch by Martin Edlman).
35
365.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
37 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
38 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
39 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
40 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
41 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
42 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
43 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
44 to disble it.
45
465.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
47 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
48 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
49 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
50 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
51 with modifiers.
52 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
53 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
54 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
55 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
56 and clear the scrollback buffer.
57
585.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
59 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
60 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
61 a command.
62 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
63 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
64 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
65 in Perl/Gtk2.
66 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
67 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
68 (reported by Mikael Magnusson).
69 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
70 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
71 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
72 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
73 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
74 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
75 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
76 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
77 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
78 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
79 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
80 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
81 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
82 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed
83 rxvt-unicode).
84 - get rid of the intpro files.
85
865.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005
87 - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one
88 for empty keymaps which could result in crashes
89 (Kuang-che Wu).
90 - new option: -embed (frills). somebody could write a simple
91 tk script to make a tab'able terminal now...
92 - only warn on X errors and _try_ to continue (frills).
93 - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow.
94 - after deciding that LSM is dead, remove all traces of it,
95 along with other, similar, cleanups.
96 - _try_ to react sensibly to some non-monotonic time changes.
97 - don't crash in urxvtc when getcwd fails (reported by Paco-Paco).
98 - tweak font searching algorithm a bit to be faster and more
99 compatible with older rxvt-unicode versions when multiple fonts
100 match (reported by Paco-Paco).
101 - urxvtd tries to stay in "/" whenever possible.
102
1035.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005
104 - document a race-free hack to start urxvtd.
105 - document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt.
106 - bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with
107 Xt, and document it in rxvt(1).
108 - correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault,
109 and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for
110 his patience and time in tracking this down).
111 - bring own resource parsing more in line with X resource parsing,
112 most notably, don't remove double quotes.
113 - compile fix for freebsd (no ut_id) (Thierry Thomas).
114 - clean up utmp and pty on X I/O errors and signals (idea
115 by Joël Riou).
116 - "un"document -xrm, it never really worked, was only
117 available with --enable-xgetdefault, is not necessary
118 and is surprisingly hard to implement.
119 - shaved off some code segment size.
120 - various code cleanups.
121 - more keysym-mapping fixes.
122
1234.9 Thu Feb 3 09:52:03 CET 2005
124 - nuke out utmp entries completely. Should be fixed in
125 original rxvt, too. (reported by James Michael Fultz).
126 - resizes wil now correctly refresh the displayed text when
127 -pixmap is active.
128 - new option/resource imFont.
129 - document --tripleclickwords/-tcw.
130 - select logical instead of physical lines when doing a triple-click.
131 - reordered help listing to group similar options together.
132 - handle SIGINT the same way as SIGTERM (reported by Joël Riou).
133 - fix a bug introduced while applying the keyboard patch
134 (WU Fengguang).
135 - document all window-op sequences (rxvt.7.) and more keysym
136 examples (rxvt.1).
137 - removed src/test completely.
138 - renamed keysym 'proto:'-prefix to 'command:'.
139
1404.8 Tue Jan 18 02:23:57 CET 2005
141 - added a patch by WU Fengguang that makes the keyboard
142 highly configurable (e.g. locale changes, custom escape
143 sequences, and more). See keysym resource in rxvt(1).
144 - remove default key sequence for unknown keys again, as this
145 can be achieved by customizing the keyboard now.
146 - fix some freeing problems when destroying the rxvt_display,
147 resulting in segfaults.
148 - don't crash when the saved cursor position doesn't fit on the
149 screen (wrong assert in original rxvt, reported by ikaro).
150 - fix signed/unsigned bugs on wc<->mb conversions.
151 - reset slipwheel scrolling speed when reaching the top or bottom
152 (Mikael Magnusson).
153 - for core fonts, use ascent + descent when a font is loaded,
154 and PIXEL_SIZE when not. when loading a font, iterate until a
155 font has been found that _really_ fits the height (reported and
156 tested by Olivier Wittenberg).
157 - set IUTF8 input flag, when defined (linux-2.6.5+).
158 - only define _XOPEN_SOURCE on solaris.
159 - autogenerate src/* dependency list.
160 - fixed linespace option, which ought to work now (and is dependent
161 on frills, not on it's own configure option).
162 - include pty.h, if available (cygwin).
163 - removed W11 directory from dist, it wasn't used anyway.
164 - initialize the locale much earlier.
165 - fixed two tiny per-instance memory leaks.
166
1674.7 Wed Dec 29 20:54:24 CET 2004
168 - fix a bug in the event logic that could cause the temrinal to be
169 black on initial startup.
170 - do NOT call XCloseIM, ever. This causes way to many crashes due to
171 races in the protocol and within Xlib.
172 - map iso-left-tab to the same sequence as shift-tab.
173 - generate a unique escape sequence for many unknown keys, such as
174 additional multimedia keys.
175 - mask out high (non-unicode) bits on wide characters, to cope with
176 implementations that store tag info in the high bits.
177
1784.6 Thu Dec 16 07:54:23 CET 2004
179 - try very hard not to exhaust the kernel tty buffers, even
180 if it slows down large pastes and is only cosmetic.
181 - streamline atom and xft color allocation to reduce startup
182 time (12.8s -> 7.8s on my dsl). Still, doing it with only 2-3
183 turnarounds would be much faster, but impossible to implement(?).
184 - implement underlineColor resource when ENABLE_FRILLS.
185 - iom left it's signal pipe handle open in the child
186 process. Fortunately not security-relevant as the pipe data gets
187 ignored.
188 - do not use XSETROOTPMAP_ID anymore, support ESETROOT_PMAP_ID
189 instead.
190 - fix a crash in rxvtd when the last window was being closed
191 (reported by hednod).
192 - fix an unlikely memory leak.
193 - fix atom name enumeration.
194
1954.5 Mon Dec 13 07:47:16 CET 2004
196 - fix an extremely nasty bug in utf8-conversion. upgrade is advised.
197 - completely re-wrote selection pasting. This should fix garbled
198 incomplete characters at 32k boundaries and too-short INCR
199 selections, and more. Increases memory requirements considerably
200 for large selections, but that seems unavoidable.
201
2024.4 Sun Dec 12 22:10:06 CET 2004
17 - rewrote handling of default-char width. 203 - rewrote handling of default-char width.
18 - implement _NET_WM_NAME et al., and also use UTF8_STRING 204 - implement _NET_WM_NAME et al., and also use UTF8_STRING
19 for the xterm property esc. sequence. Allows i18n window 205 for the xterm property esc. sequence. Allows i18n window
20 titles etc. 206 titles etc.
21 - SMART_WINDOW_TITLE removed, pls. complain if you need this. 207 - SMART_WINDOW_TITLE removed, pls. complain if you need this.
