1TODO: manpage 900mb update 1rxvt-unicode changelog <= google-friendly title
2TODO: safer command: keymap processing. 2
3TODO: init_secondary serves what purpose? maybe move it to earlier startup phase and re-think
4TODO: xcopyarea pass broken, fix and improve
5TODO: event mechanism that replaces on_user_command with something more scalable.
6TODO: slipwheeling needs a keyboard grab to get key release events.
7TODO: overlays collide with the way the out-of-focus cursor is being drawn
8TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts, pango!
3TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc. 9TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
4WISH: keyboard modification via esc-sequences. 10TODO: slow drag selection on remote display - other things seem fast (rxvt illness, motion hints?)
5WISH: line-rewrapping on resize 11TODO: better resource handling for tabbar in -pe tabbed.
6WISH: searchable backlog 12WISH: investigate -pe tabbed -g 80x25 being 23 not 24 or 25 lines
7WISH: meta-tagging of data by regex (my dream project) 13 => when setting the constraints, the wm might (correctly)
8WISH: double-click: more intelligent (urls etc.) 14 resize the outer window, which might result in a smaller window overall.
9WISH: OnTheSpot editing, or maybe switch to miiiiiiif 15 or something like that. guys, send me a patch.
10WISH: tabbed windows (hey, just use screen...) 16WISH: coloured pastebin
11WISH: just for fun, do shade and tint with XRender. 17WISH: load system-wide config file even if we don't have one
18WISH: look into XAddConnectionWatch, does anybody need that?
19DUMB: support tex fonts
20TODO: perl-shell-window? perl-unix-socket?
12 21
135.1 22TODO: - upgrade to libev-4.00.
23
24 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
25 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
26 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
27 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
28 characters other than first one in the selected cell
29 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
30 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
31 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
32 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
33 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
34 (found by Mikachu).
35 - make OSC 17 / 19 apply to highlightColor / highlightTextColor.
36 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19.
37 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
38 highlighted characters.
39 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
40 but not to non selected cells with reverse video.
41 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
42 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
43 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
44 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
45 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
46 for 256 colours.
47 - add support for 256 colors.
48 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in that mode.
49 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
50 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
51 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
52 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
53 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
54 - no longer force CERASE to DEL - use the system default. affects
55 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
56 backspacekey was given.
57 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
58 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
59 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
60 - it was verified that urxvt handles µ and μ correctly.
61
629.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
63 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
64 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
65 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
66 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
67 Mikachu).
68 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
69 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
70 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
71 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
72 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
73 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
74 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
75 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
76 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
77 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
78 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
79 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
80 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
81 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
82 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
83 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
84 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
85 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
86 - update to libptytty 1.3.
87 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
88 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
89 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
90 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
91 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
92 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
93 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
94 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
95 in need of fixing. go figure.
96 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
97 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
98 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
99 the new ->selection_screen method.
100 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
101 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
102 - fix printpipe data output (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
103 - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection.
104 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.
105 - updated compose tables to unicode 5.2.0.
106
1079.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
108 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
109 - updates libev to 3.48.
110 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
111 when a window was closed.
112 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
113 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
114 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
115 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
116 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
117 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
118 makes copy&paste work.
119 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
120 no longer apply.
121 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
122 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
123 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
124 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
125 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
126 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
127 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
128 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
129 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
130 the only known workaround.
131 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
132 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
133 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
134 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
135 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
136 disabling size hints.
137 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
138 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
139 as mouse reporting.
140 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
141 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
142 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
143 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
144 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
145 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
146 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
147 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
148 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
149 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
150 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
151 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
152
1539.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
154 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
155 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
156 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
157 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
158 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
159 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
160 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
161 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
162 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
163 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
164 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
165 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
166 help working window managers as well.
167 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
168 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
169 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
170 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
171 from the toplevel window to the children.
172 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
173 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
174 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
175 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
176
1779.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
178 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
179 - fix build with !xft.
180 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
181
1829.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
183 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
184 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
185 received" problem, again :)
186 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
187
1889.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
189 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
190 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
191 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
192 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
193 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
194 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
195 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
196 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
197 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
198 channels or background images are used.
199 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
200 till the first event arrives. or so.
201 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
202 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
203 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
204 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
205 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
206 resets the terminal.
207 - scrollbar code cleanups.
208 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
209 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
210 - updated to libev 3.0.
211
2128.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
213 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
214 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
215 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
216 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
217 would not clear it visually in another.
218 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
219 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
220 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
221 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
222 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
223 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
224
2258.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
226 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
227 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
228 effects.
229 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
230 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
231 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
232 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
233 text was visible.
234 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
235 some minor improvements.
236 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
237 display and not once per terminal window.
238 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
239
2408.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
241 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
242 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
243 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
244
2458.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
246 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
247 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
248 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
249 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
250 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
251 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
252 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
253
2548.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
255 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
256
2578.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
258 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
259 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
260 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
261 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
262 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
263 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
264 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
265 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
266 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
267 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
268 - parallel builds should work once more.
269
2708.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
271 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
272 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
273 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
274 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
275 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
276 missing DISPLAY.
277 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
278 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
279 - updated io_manager.
280
2818.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
282 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
283 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
284 /usr/X11R6/lib.
285 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
286 patch by Sasha Vasko.
287 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
288 (patch by Philip Paeps).
289 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
290 (patch by Mikachu).
291 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
292 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
293 digit (exg).
294 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
295 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
296 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
297 extension (tpope).
298 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
299 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
300 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
301 problems.
302
3038.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
304 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
305 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
306 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
307 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
308 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
309 (found by Aiviru).
310 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
311 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
312 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
313 case to work around for :/
314 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
315 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
316 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
317 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
318 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
319 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
320 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
321 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
322 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
323 Paskevich).
324 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
325 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
326 - update libptytty.
327 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
328 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
329 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
330 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
331 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
332 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
333 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
334 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
335 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
336
3378.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
338 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
339 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
340 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
341 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
342 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
343 Reported by Takano Akio.
344 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
345 reported by exg.
346 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
347 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
348 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
349 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
350
3518.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
352 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
353 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
354 circumstances (reported by exg).
355 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
356 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
357 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
358 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
359 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
360 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
361 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
362 - update to libptytty-1.0.
363 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
364 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
365 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
366 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
367 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
368 bug #143985).
369 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
370 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
371 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
372 - manpage fix by exg.
373
3747.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
375 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
376 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
377 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
378 it does! :->
379 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
380 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
381
3827.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
383 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
384 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
385 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
386 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
387 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
388 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
389 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
390 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
391 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
392 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
393 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
394 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
395 uppercase character.
396 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
397 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
398 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
399 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
400 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
401 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
402 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
403 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
404 generic osc_seq.
405 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
406 were invoked recursively.
407 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
408 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
409 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
410 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
411 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
412 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
413 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
414 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
415 by omatunto_.
416 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
417 follow C++ closely enough.
418 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
419 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
420 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
421 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
422
4237.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
424 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
425 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
426 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
427 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
428 click, and eats the click.
429 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
430 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
431 refresh bugs please.
432 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
433 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
434 improve size hint setting.
435 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
436 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
437 to correctly position their preedit window.
438 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
439 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
440 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
441 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
442 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
443 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
444 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
445 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
446 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
447 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
448 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
449 (reported by Paco-Paco).
450 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
451 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
452 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
453
4547.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
455 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
456 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
457 resource value.
458 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
459 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
460 relevant tab window.
461 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
462 (initial patch by hednod).
463 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
464 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
465 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
466 the benefit of automove-background.
467 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
468 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
469 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
470 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
471 __linux__.
472 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
473 the colour components.
474 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
475 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
476 - more colour rtt optimisations.
477 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
478 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
479 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
480 - minor libptytty update.
481
4827.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
483 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
484 detection:
485 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
486 - overlap detection was improved.
487 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
488 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
489 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
490 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
491 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
492 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
493 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
494 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
495 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
496 broken.
497 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
498 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
499 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
500 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
501 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
502 (patch by Paco-Paco).
503 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
504 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
505 an "[alpha]" prefix.
506 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
507 transparent. Long Live Xft!
508 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
509 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
510 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
511 on a pseudocolor screen.
512 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
513 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
514 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
515 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
516 - small configure updates.
517 - further RTT optimisations.
518 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
519 the debian package.
520 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
521 but much newer than the old one.
522
5237.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
524 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
525 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
526 - small configure updates for libptytty.
527 - fixed version options: line output.
528 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
529
5307.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
531 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
532 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
533 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
534 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
535 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
536 selection extension.
537 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
538 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
539 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
540 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
541 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
542 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
543 needs the careful rendering mode.
544 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
545 too wide and needs careful mode.
546 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
547 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
548 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
549 atoms only once per display.
550 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
551 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
552 xterm.
553
5547.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
555 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
556 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
557 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
558 ctrl-shift-672c).
559 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
560 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
561 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
562 the primary screen.
563 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
564 could lead to an assertion failure.
565 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
566 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
567 via mouse clicks.
568 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
569 with shift - mouse button 2.
570 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
571 in non-synthetic events.
572 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
573 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
574 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
575 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
576 whole urxvt[d] process.
577 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
578 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
579 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
580 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
581
5827.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
583 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
584 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
585 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
586 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
587 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
588 special privileges.
589 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
590 itself.
591 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
592 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
593 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
594 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
595 similar stuff.
596 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
597 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
598 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
599 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
600 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
601 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
602 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
603 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
604 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
605 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
606 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
607 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
608 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
609 (Emanuele Giaquinta=exg).
610 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
611 to set the window title.
612 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
613 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
614 at the wrong time.
615 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
616 anymore.
617 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
618 - nuked QNX support.
619 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
620 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
621 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
622 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
623
6247.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
625 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
626 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
627 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
628 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
629 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
630 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
631 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
632 and much much more.
633 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
634 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
635 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
636 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
637 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
638 setuid/setgid.
639 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
640 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
641 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
642 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
643 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
644 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
645 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
646 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
647 compatible, and not really small either.
648 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
649 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
650 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
651 to crashes.
652 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
653 colours.
654 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
655 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
656
6576.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
658 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
659 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
660 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
661 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
662 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
663 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
664 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
665 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
666 by Mikachu).
667 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
668 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
669 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
670 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
671 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
672 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
673 - fix directory permissions on install.
674 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
675 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
676 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
677 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
678 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
679
6806.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
681 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
682 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
683 Chuck Blake.
684 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
685 obscure the mouse cursor position.
686 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
687 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
688 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
689 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
690 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
691 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
692 transfer efficiency.
693 - further minor cleanups.
694
6956.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
696 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
697 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
698 while the user still drags.
699 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
700 not drawn correctly.
701 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
702 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
703 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
704 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
705 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
706 stripping whitespace.
707 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
708 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
709
7106.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
711 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
712 - enable slow link support by default.
713 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
714 (also a bug in original rxvt).
715 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
716 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
717 partial patch).
718 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
719 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
720 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
721 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
722 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
723 - implement -hold option.
724 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
725 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
726 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
727 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
728 - slight overall speed improvements.
729 - considerably improved code clarity.
730 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
731 buffer.
732
7335.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
734 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
735 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
736 (matters only for rxvtd).
737 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
738 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
739 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
740
7415.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
742 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
743 If you want the old behaviour, try:
744 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
745 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
746 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
747 percentage by 100-percentage.
748 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
749 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
750 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
751 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
752 windows.
753 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
754 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
755 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
756 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
757 - replaced INSTALL file.
758
7595.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
760 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
761 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
762 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
763 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
764 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
765 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
766 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
767 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
768
7695.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
770 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
771 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
772 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
773 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
774 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
775 Affects display in iso14755 box.
776 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
777 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
778 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
779 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
780 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
781 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
782 cutting pieces off of characters.
783 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
784 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
785 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
786 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
787 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
788 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
789 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
790
7915.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
792 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
793 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
794 meaning of the given key.
795 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
796 (patch by Martin Edlman).
797
7985.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
799 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
800 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
801 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
802 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
803 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
804 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
805 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
806 to disable it.
807
8085.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
809 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
810 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
811 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
812 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
813 with modifiers.
814 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
815 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
816 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
817 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
818 and clear the scrollback buffer.
819
8205.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
821 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
822 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
823 a command.
824 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
825 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
826 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
827 in Perl/Gtk2.
828 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
829 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
830 (reported by Mikael Magnusson=Mikachu).
831 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
832 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
833 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
834 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
835 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
836 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
837 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
838 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
839 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
840 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
841 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
842 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
843 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
844 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed
845 rxvt-unicode).
846 - get rid of the intpro files.
847
8485.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005
14 - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one 849 - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one
15 for empty keymaps which could result in crashes 850 for empty keymaps which could result in crashes
16 (Kuang-che Wu). 851 (Kuang-che Wu).
852 - new option: -embed (frills). somebody could write a simple
853 tk script to make a tab'able terminal now...
17 - only warn on X errors, *try* to continue (frills). 854 - only warn on X errors and _try_ to continue (frills).
18 - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow. 855 - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow.
856 - after deciding that LSM is dead, remove all traces of it,
857 along with other, similar, cleanups.
858 - _try_ to react sensibly to some non-monotonic time changes.
859 - don't crash in urxvtc when getcwd fails (reported by Paco-Paco).
860 - tweak font searching algorithm a bit to be faster and more
861 compatible with older rxvt-unicode versions when multiple fonts
862 match (reported by Paco-Paco).
863 - urxvtd tries to stay in "/" whenever possible.
19 864
205.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005 8655.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005
21 - document a race-free hack to start urxvtd. 866 - document a race-free hack to start urxvtd.
22 - document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt. 867 - document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt.
23 - bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with 868 - bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with
24 Xt, and document it in rxvt(1). 869 Xt, and document it in rxvt(1).
25 - correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault, 870 - correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault,
26 and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for 871 and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for
27 his patience and time in tracking this down). 872 his patience and time in tracking this down).
