155.6
16 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
17 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
18 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
19 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
20 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
21 Affects display in iso14755 box.
22 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
23 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
24 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
25
265.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
27 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
28 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
29 meaning of the given key.
30 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
31 (patch by Martin Edlman).
32
335.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
34 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
35 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
36 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
37 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
38 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
39 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
40 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
41 to disble it.
42
435.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
44 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
45 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
46 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
47 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
48 with modifiers.
49 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
50 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
51 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
52 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
53 and clear the scrollback buffer.
54
555.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
56 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
57 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
58 a command.
59 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
60 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
61 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
62 in Perl/Gtk2.
63 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
64 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
65 (reported by Mikael Magnusson).
66 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
67 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
68 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
69 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
70 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
71 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
72 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
73 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
74 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
75 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
76 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
77 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
78 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
79 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed
80 rxvt-unicode).
81 - get rid of the intpro files.
82
835.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005
84 - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one
85 for empty keymaps which could result in crashes
86 (Kuang-che Wu).
87 - new option: -embed (frills). somebody could write a simple
88 tk script to make a tab'able terminal now...
89 - only warn on X errors and _try_ to continue (frills).
90 - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow.
91 - after deciding that LSM is dead, remove all traces of it,
92 along with other, similar, cleanups.
93 - _try_ to react sensibly to some non-monotonic time changes.
94 - don't crash in urxvtc when getcwd fails (reported by Paco-Paco).
95 - tweak font searching algorithm a bit to be faster and more
96 compatible with older rxvt-unicode versions when multiple fonts
97 match (reported by Paco-Paco).
98 - urxvtd tries to stay in "/" whenever possible.
99
1005.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005
101 - document a race-free hack to start urxvtd.
102 - document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt.
103 - bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with
104 Xt, and document it in rxvt(1).
105 - correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault,
106 and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for
107 his patience and time in tracking this down).
108 - bring own resource parsing more in line with X resource parsing,
109 most notably, don't remove double quotes.
110 - compile fix for freebsd (no ut_id) (Thierry Thomas).
111 - clean up utmp and pty on X I/O errors and signals (idea
112 by Joël Riou).
113 - "un"document -xrm, it never really worked, was only
114 available with --enable-xgetdefault, is not necessary
115 and is surprisingly hard to implement.
116 - shaved off some code segment size.
117 - various code cleanups.
118 - more keysym-mapping fixes.
119
1204.9 Thu Feb 3 09:52:03 CET 2005
121 - nuke out utmp entries completely. Should be fixed in
122 original rxvt, too. (reported by James Michael Fultz).
123 - resizes wil now correctly refresh the displayed text when
124 -pixmap is active.
125 - new option/resource imFont.
126 - document --tripleclickwords/-tcw.
127 - select logical instead of physical lines when doing a triple-click.
128 - reordered help listing to group similar options together.
129 - handle SIGINT the same way as SIGTERM (reported by Joël Riou).
130 - fix a bug introduced while applying the keyboard patch
131 (WU Fengguang).
132 - document all window-op sequences (rxvt.7.) and more keysym
133 examples (rxvt.1).
134 - removed src/test completely.
135 - renamed keysym 'proto:'-prefix to 'command:'.
136
1374.8 Tue Jan 18 02:23:57 CET 2005
138 - added a patch by WU Fengguang that makes the keyboard
139 highly configurable (e.g. locale changes, custom escape
140 sequences, and more). See keysym resource in rxvt(1).
141 - remove default key sequence for unknown keys again, as this
142 can be achieved by customizing the keyboard now.
143 - fix some freeing problems when destroying the rxvt_display,
144 resulting in segfaults.
145 - don't crash when the saved cursor position doesn't fit on the
146 screen (wrong assert in original rxvt, reported by ikaro).
147 - fix signed/unsigned bugs on wc<->mb conversions.
148 - reset slipwheel scrolling speed when reaching the top or bottom
149 (Mikael Magnusson).
150 - for core fonts, use ascent + descent when a font is loaded,
151 and PIXEL_SIZE when not. when loading a font, iterate until a
152 font has been found that _really_ fits the height (reported and
153 tested by Olivier Wittenberg).
154 - set IUTF8 input flag, when defined (linux-2.6.5+).
155 - only define _XOPEN_SOURCE on solaris.
156 - autogenerate src/* dependency list.
157 - fixed linespace option, which ought to work now (and is dependent
158 on frills, not on it's own configure option).
159 - include pty.h, if available (cygwin).
160 - removed W11 directory from dist, it wasn't used anyway.
161 - initialize the locale much earlier.
162 - fixed two tiny per-instance memory leaks.
163
1644.7 Wed Dec 29 20:54:24 CET 2004
165 - fix a bug in the event logic that could cause the temrinal to be
166 black on initial startup.
167 - do NOT call XCloseIM, ever. This causes way to many crashes due to
168 races in the protocol and within Xlib.
169 - map iso-left-tab to the same sequence as shift-tab.
170 - generate a unique escape sequence for many unknown keys, such as
171 additional multimedia keys.
172 - mask out high (non-unicode) bits on wide characters, to cope with
173 implementations that store tag info in the high bits.
174
1754.6 Thu Dec 16 07:54:23 CET 2004
14 - try very hard not to exhaust the kernel tty buffers, even 176 - try very hard not to exhaust the kernel tty buffers, even
15 if it slows down large pastes. 177 if it slows down large pastes and is only cosmetic.
178 - streamline atom and xft color allocation to reduce startup
179 time (12.8s -> 7.8s on my dsl). Still, doing it with only 2-3
180 turnarounds would be much faster, but impossible to implement(?).
181 - implement underlineColor resource when ENABLE_FRILLS.
182 - iom left it's signal pipe handle open in the child
183 process. Fortunately not security-relevant as the pipe data gets
184 ignored.
185 - do not use XSETROOTPMAP_ID anymore, support ESETROOT_PMAP_ID
186 instead.
187 - fix a crash in rxvtd when the last window was being closed
188 (reported by hednod).
189 - fix an unlikely memory leak.
190 - fix atom name enumeration.
