11 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
12 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
13 menus, tabs etc. See the urxvtperl manpage.
14 - fix directory permissions on install.
15 - improved sched_yield support.
16
176.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
18 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
19 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
20 Chuck Blake.
21 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
22 obscure the mouse cursor position.
23 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
24 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
25 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
26 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
27 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
28 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
29 transfer efficiency.
30 - further minor cleanups.
31
326.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
33 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
34 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
35 while the user still drags.
36 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
37 not drawn correctly.
38 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
39 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
40 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
41 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
42 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
43 stripping whitespace.
44 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
45 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
46
476.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
48 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
49 - enable slow link support by default.
50 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
51 (also a bug in original rxvt).
52 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
53 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
54 partial patch).
55 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
56 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
57 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
58 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
59 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
60 - implement -hold option.
61 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
62 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
63 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
64 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
65 - slight overall speed improvements.
66 - considerably improved code clarity.
67 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
68 buffer.
69
705.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
71 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
72 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
73 (matters only for rxvtd).
74 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
75 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
76 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
77
785.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
79 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
80 If you want the old behaviour, try:
81 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
82 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
83 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
84 percentage by 100-percentage.
85 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
86 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
87 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
88 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
89 windows.
90 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
91 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
92 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
93 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
94 - replaced INSTALL file.
95
965.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
97 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
98 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
99 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
100 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
101 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
102 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
103 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
104 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
105
1065.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
107 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
108 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
109 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
110 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
111 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
112 Affects display in iso14755 box.
113 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
114 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
115 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
116 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
117 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
118 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
119 cutting pieces off of characters.
120 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
121 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
122 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
123 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
124 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
125 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
126 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
127
1285.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
129 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
130 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
131 meaning of the given key.
132 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
133 (patch by Martin Edlman).
134
1355.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
136 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
137 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
138 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
139 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
140 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
141 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
142 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
143 to disable it.
144
1455.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
146 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
147 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
148 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
149 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
150 with modifiers.
151 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
152 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
153 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
154 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
155 and clear the scrollback buffer.
156
1575.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
158 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
159 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
160 a command.
161 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
162 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
163 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
164 in Perl/Gtk2.
165 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
166 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
167 (reported by Mikael Magnusson).
168 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
169 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
170 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
171 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
172 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
173 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
174 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
175 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
176 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
177 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
178 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
179 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
20 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is 180 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
21 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed 181 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed

23 - get rid of the intpro files. 183 - get rid of the intpro files.
