17 | 5.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005 |
|
|
18 | - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default. |
|
|
19 | If you want the old behaviour, try: |
|
|
20 | configure --disable-everything <your enable options> |
|
|
21 | - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with |
|
|
22 | the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your |
|
|
23 | percentage by 100-percentage. |
|
|
24 | - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm. |
|
|
25 | - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update |
|
|
26 | the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is |
|
|
27 | synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other |
|
|
28 | windows. |
|
|
29 | - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default |
|
|
30 | bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting. |
|
|
31 | - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov). |
|
|
32 | - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option. |
|
|
33 | - replaced INSTALL file. |
|
|
34 | |
|
|
35 | 5.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005 |
|
|
36 | - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd. |
|
|
37 | - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages. |
|
|
38 | - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do |
|
|
39 | not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't |
|
|
40 | even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes). |
|
|
41 | - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines |
|
|
42 | could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra |
|
|
43 | refreshes in these cases (also a problem in oriignal rxvt). |
|
|
44 | |
|
|
45 | 5.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005 |
|
|
46 | - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised |
|
|
47 | every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected). |
|
|
48 | Reported by Jasmin Buchert. |
|
|
49 | - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently |
|
|
50 | uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare). |
|
|
51 | Affects display in iso14755 box. |
|
|
52 | - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the |
|
|
53 | hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional |
|
|
54 | chars mixed with fixed-width ones. |
|
|
55 | - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially |
|
|
56 | overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws |
|
|
57 | more than required, but that's better than undershooting and |
|
|
58 | cutting pieces off of characters. |
|
|
59 | - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for |
|
|
60 | fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines. |
|
|
61 | - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character |
|
|
62 | at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu). |
|
|
63 | - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be |
|
|
64 | output in the next line (reported by Mikachu). |
|
|
65 | - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin. |
|
|
66 | |
|
|
67 | 5.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005 |
|
|
68 | - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement |
|
|
69 | a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in |
|
|
70 | meaning of the given key. |
|
|
71 | - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite |
|
|
72 | (patch by Martin Edlman). |
|
|
73 | |
|
|
74 | 5.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005 |
|
|
75 | - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code. |
|
|
76 | this is necessary because it has no knowledge about |
|
|
77 | built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code |
|
|
78 | will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out. |
|
|
79 | - cursor blinking now depends on frills. |
|
|
80 | - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc). |
|
|
81 | - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay |
|
|
82 | to disble it. |
|
|
83 | |
|
|
84 | 5.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005 |
|
|
85 | - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long |
|
|
86 | escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by |
|
|
87 | Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team). |
|
|
88 | - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons |
|
|
89 | with modifiers. |
|
|
90 | - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties. |
|
|
91 | - properly update WM_LOCALE. |
|
|
92 | - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol. |
|
|
93 | - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view |
|
|
94 | and clear the scrollback buffer. |
|
|
95 | |
|
|
96 | 5.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005 |
|
|
97 | - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave |
|
|
98 | that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting |
|
|
99 | a command. |
|
|
100 | - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus. |
|
|
101 | - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk, |
|
|
102 | and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented |
|
|
103 | in Perl/Gtk2. |
|
|
104 | - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling |
|
|
105 | when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert. |
|
|
106 | (reported by Mikael Magnusson). |
|
|
107 | - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt |
|
|
108 | (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for |
|
|
109 | pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd, |
|
|
110 | and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary. |
|
|
111 | - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using |
|
|
112 | line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess |
|
|
113 | with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically |
|
|
114 | needs to be US-ASCII all the time). |
|
|
115 | - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help |
|
|
116 | some apps who fail to set the correct mode. |
|
|
117 | - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to |
|
|
118 | not destroy the window for other types of messages. |
|
|
119 | - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is |
|
|
120 | of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed |
|
|
121 | rxvt-unicode). |
|
|
122 | - get rid of the intpro files. |
|
|
123 | |
|
|
124 | 5.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005 |
|
|
125 | - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one |
|
|
126 | for empty keymaps which could result in crashes |
|
|
127 | (Kuang-che Wu). |
|
|
128 | - new option: -embed (frills). somebody could write a simple |
|
|
129 | tk script to make a tab'able terminal now... |
|
|
130 | - only warn on X errors and _try_ to continue (frills). |
|
|
131 | - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow. |
|
|
132 | - after deciding that LSM is dead, remove all traces of it, |
|
|
133 | along with other, similar, cleanups. |
|
|
134 | - _try_ to react sensibly to some non-monotonic time changes. |
|
|
135 | - don't crash in urxvtc when getcwd fails (reported by Paco-Paco). |
|
|
136 | - tweak font searching algorithm a bit to be faster and more |
|
|
137 | compatible with older rxvt-unicode versions when multiple fonts |
|
|
138 | match (reported by Paco-Paco). |
|
|
139 | - urxvtd tries to stay in "/" whenever possible. |
|
|
140 | |
|
|
141 | 5.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005 |
|
|
142 | - document a race-free hack to start urxvtd. |
|
|
143 | - document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt. |
|
|
144 | - bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with |
|
|
145 | Xt, and document it in rxvt(1). |
|
|
146 | - correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault, |
|
|
147 | and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for |
|
|
148 | his patience and time in tracking this down). |
|
|
149 | - bring own resource parsing more in line with X resource parsing, |
|
|
150 | most notably, don't remove double quotes. |
|
|
151 | - compile fix for freebsd (no ut_id) (Thierry Thomas). |
|
|
152 | - clean up utmp and pty on X I/O errors and signals (idea |
|
|
153 | by Joël Riou). |
|
|
154 | - "un"document -xrm, it never really worked, was only |
|
|
155 | available with --enable-xgetdefault, is not necessary |
|
|
156 | and is surprisingly hard to implement. |
|
|
157 | - shaved off some code segment size. |
|
|
158 | - various code cleanups. |
|
|
159 | - more keysym-mapping fixes. |
|
|
160 | |
|
|
161 | 4.9 Thu Feb 3 09:52:03 CET 2005 |
|
|
162 | - nuke out utmp entries completely. Should be fixed in |
|
|
163 | original rxvt, too. (reported by James Michael Fultz). |
|
|
164 | - resizes wil now correctly refresh the displayed text when |
|
|
165 | -pixmap is active. |
|
|
166 | - new option/resource imFont. |
|
|
167 | - document --tripleclickwords/-tcw. |
|
|
168 | - select logical instead of physical lines when doing a triple-click. |
|
|
169 | - reordered help listing to group similar options together. |
|
|
170 | - handle SIGINT the same way as SIGTERM (reported by Joël Riou). |
|
|
171 | - fix a bug introduced while applying the keyboard patch |
|
|
172 | (WU Fengguang). |
|
|
173 | - document all window-op sequences (rxvt.7.) and more keysym |
|
|
174 | examples (rxvt.1). |
|
|
175 | - removed src/test completely. |
|
|
176 | - renamed keysym 'proto:'-prefix to 'command:'. |
|
|
177 | |
|
|
178 | 4.8 Tue Jan 18 02:23:57 CET 2005 |
|
|
179 | - added a patch by WU Fengguang that makes the keyboard |
|
|
180 | highly configurable (e.g. locale changes, custom escape |
|
|
181 | sequences, and more). See keysym resource in rxvt(1). |
|
|
182 | - remove default key sequence for unknown keys again, as this |
|
|
183 | can be achieved by customizing the keyboard now. |
|
|
184 | - fix some freeing problems when destroying the rxvt_display, |
|
|
185 | resulting in segfaults. |
|
|
186 | - don't crash when the saved cursor position doesn't fit on the |
|
|
187 | screen (wrong assert in original rxvt, reported by ikaro). |
|
|
188 | - fix signed/unsigned bugs on wc<->mb conversions. |
|
|
189 | - reset slipwheel scrolling speed when reaching the top or bottom |
|
|
190 | (Mikael Magnusson). |
|
|
191 | - for core fonts, use ascent + descent when a font is loaded, |
|
|
192 | and PIXEL_SIZE when not. when loading a font, iterate until a |
|
|
193 | font has been found that _really_ fits the height (reported and |
|
|
194 | tested by Olivier Wittenberg). |
|
|
195 | - set IUTF8 input flag, when defined (linux-2.6.5+). |
|
|
196 | - only define _XOPEN_SOURCE on solaris. |
|
|
197 | - autogenerate src/* dependency list. |
|
|
198 | - fixed linespace option, which ought to work now (and is dependent |
|
|
199 | on frills, not on it's own configure option). |
|
|
200 | - include pty.h, if available (cygwin). |
|
|
201 | - removed W11 directory from dist, it wasn't used anyway. |
|
|
202 | - initialize the locale much earlier. |
|
|
203 | - fixed two tiny per-instance memory leaks. |
|
|
204 | |
|
|
205 | 4.7 Wed Dec 29 20:54:24 CET 2004 |
|
|
206 | - fix a bug in the event logic that could cause the temrinal to be |
|
|
207 | black on initial startup. |
|
|
208 | - do NOT call XCloseIM, ever. This causes way to many crashes due to |
|
|
209 | races in the protocol and within Xlib. |
|
|
210 | - map iso-left-tab to the same sequence as shift-tab. |
|
|
211 | - generate a unique escape sequence for many unknown keys, such as |
|
|
212 | additional multimedia keys. |
|
|
213 | - mask out high (non-unicode) bits on wide characters, to cope with |
|
|
214 | implementations that store tag info in the high bits. |
|
|
215 | |
|
|
216 | 4.6 Thu Dec 16 07:54:23 CET 2004 |
|
|
217 | - try very hard not to exhaust the kernel tty buffers, even |
|
|
218 | if it slows down large pastes and is only cosmetic. |
|
|
219 | - streamline atom and xft color allocation to reduce startup |
|
|
220 | time (12.8s -> 7.8s on my dsl). Still, doing it with only 2-3 |
|
|
221 | turnarounds would be much faster, but impossible to implement(?). |
|
|
222 | - implement underlineColor resource when ENABLE_FRILLS. |
|
|
223 | - iom left it's signal pipe handle open in the child |
|
|
224 | process. Fortunately not security-relevant as the pipe data gets |
|
|
225 | ignored. |
|
|
226 | - do not use XSETROOTPMAP_ID anymore, support ESETROOT_PMAP_ID |
|
|
227 | instead. |
|
|
228 | - fix a crash in rxvtd when the last window was being closed |
|
|
229 | (reported by hednod). |
|
|
230 | - fix an unlikely memory leak. |
|
|
231 | - fix atom name enumeration. |
|
|
232 | |
|
|
233 | 4.5 Mon Dec 13 07:47:16 CET 2004 |
|
|
234 | - fix an extremely nasty bug in utf8-conversion. upgrade is advised. |
| 14 | - completely re-wrote selection pasting. This should fix |
