42TODO: implement xterms nih 1006 mouse mode because the fud campaign against urxvt's 1015 mode works.
43
44TODO: fix ESC G reply forever, or simply completely disable it?
45 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
46 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
47 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
48 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
49 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
50 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
51 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
52 - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression.
53 - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video
54 is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it
55 is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler).
56 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
57 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
58 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
59 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
60 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
61 ext if any bg image resource/option is present. The old bg image
62 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
63 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
64 - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions
65 (patch by Rastislav Barlik).
66
679.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
68 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
69 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
70 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
71 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
72 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
73 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
74 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
75 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
76 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
77 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
78 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
79 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
80 Devin J. Pohly).
81 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
82 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
83 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
84 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
85 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
86 action now properly rebinds the key.
87 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
88 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
89 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
90 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
91 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
92 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
93 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
94 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
95 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
96 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
97 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
98 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
99 window.
100 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
101 to a key combination.
102 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
103 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
104 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
105
1069.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
107 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
108 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
109 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
110 same height but different ascent.
111 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
112 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
113 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
114 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
115 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
116 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
117 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
118 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
119 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
120 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
121 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
122 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
123 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
124 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
125 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
126 but not documented.
127 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
128 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
129 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
130 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
131 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
132 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
133 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
134 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
135 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
136 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
137 associated to a matched pattern.
138 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
139 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
140 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
141 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
142 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
143 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
144 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
145 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
146 by Thomas Otto).
147 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
148 way properly.
149 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
150 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
151 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
152 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
153 #830236.
154 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
155 window/popup has been destroyed already.
156 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
157 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
158 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
159 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
160 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
161 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
162 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
163 simpler and actually more correct code.
164 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
165 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
166 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
167 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
168 frame buffers).
169 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
170 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
171 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
172
1739.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
174 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
175 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
176 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
177 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
178 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
179 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
180 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
181 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
182 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
183 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
184 the CLIPBOARD selection.
185 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
186 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
187 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
188 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
189 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
190 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
191
1929.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
193 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
194 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
195 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
196 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
197 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
198 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
199 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
200 function.
201 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
202 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
203
2049.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
205 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
206
2079.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
208 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
209 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
210 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
211 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
212 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
213 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
214 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
215 Münnich).
216 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
217 are disabled.
218
2199.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
220 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
221 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
222 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
223 Hemmer).
224 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
225 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
226 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
227 patch by Jan Larres).
228 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
229 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
230 as diagnosed by clang.
231 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
232 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
233 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
234 nickfailure@gmail.com).
235 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
236 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
237 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
238 for details.
239 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
240 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
241 which show up in -help etc.
242 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
243 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
244 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
245 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
246 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
247 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
248 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
249 - remove support for libafterimage.
250 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
251 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
252 libptytty instead.
253 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
254 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
255 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
256 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
257 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
258
2599.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
260 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
261 thinks thats an error.
262 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
263 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
264 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
265 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
266 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
267 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
268 and destination in composite operations.
269 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
270 for tabs.
271 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
272 Sung Pae).
273 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
274 - fix -C option on solaris.
275
2769.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
277 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
278 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
279 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
280 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
281 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
282 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
283 to disable both scaling and tiling.
284 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
285 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
286 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
287 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
288 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
289 in the next release.
290 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
291 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
292 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
293 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
294 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
295 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
296 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
297 Filardo).
298 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
299 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
300 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
301 the cell size.
302 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
303 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
304 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
305 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
306 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
307 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
308 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
309 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
310 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
311 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
312 (Bob Farrell).
313 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
314 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
315 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
316 Pohlack).
317 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
318 Michael Stapelberg).
319 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
320 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
321 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
322 edge (Mikachu).
323 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
324 handle exceptions better.
325 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
326 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
327
3289.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
329 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
330 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
331 support the UTF8_STRING target.
332 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
333 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
334 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
335 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
336 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
337 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
338 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
339 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
340 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
341 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
342
3439.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
344 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
345 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
346 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
347 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
348 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
349 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
350 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
351 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
352 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
353 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
354 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
355 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
356 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
357 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
358 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
359 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
360 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
361 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
362 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
363 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
364 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
365 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
366 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
367 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
368 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
369 with gcc.
370 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
371 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
372 - document 'thickness' resource.
373 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
374 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
375 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
376 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
377 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
378 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
379 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
380 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
381 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
382 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
383 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
384
3859.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
386 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
387 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
388 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
389 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
390 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
391 failures with gcc 4.5.
392 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
393 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
394 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
395 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
396 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
397 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
398 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
399 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
400 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
401 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
402 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
403 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
404 and has fewer limitations.
405 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
406 startup for the upper left corner.
407 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
408 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
409 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
410 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
411 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
412 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
413 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
414 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
415 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
416 - fix build on XFree86.
417 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
418 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
419 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
420 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
421
4229.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010

444 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
445 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
446 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
447 (found by Mikachu).
448 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to

495 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
496 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
497 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
498 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
499 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
500 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
501 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
502 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
503 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
504 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).

509 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
510 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
511 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default

513 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
514 in need of fixing. go figure.
515 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
516 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
517 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
518 the new ->selection_screen method.

527 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
528 - updates libev to 3.48.
529 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
530 when a window was closed.
531 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
532 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
533 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
534 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
535 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
536 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
537 makes copy&paste work.
538 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
539 no longer apply.
540 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
541 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
542 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
543 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
544 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
545 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
546 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
547 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
548 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
549 the only known workaround.
550 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
551 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
552 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
553 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
554 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
555 disabling size hints.
556 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
557 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
558 as mouse reporting.
559 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
560 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
561 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
562 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
563 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
564 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
565 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
566 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
567 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
568 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
569 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
570 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
571

578 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
579 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
580 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
581 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
582 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
583 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
584 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
585 help working window managers as well.
586 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
587 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
588 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
589 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
590 from the toplevel window to the children.
591 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
592 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
593 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
594 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
595

597 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
598 - fix build with !xft.
599 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
600
6019.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
602 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
603 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
604 received" problem, again :)
605 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
606
6079.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
608 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
609 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
610 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
611 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
612 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
613 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
614 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
615 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
616 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
617 channels or background images are used.
618 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
619 till the first event arrives. or so.
620 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
621 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
622 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
623 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
624 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
625 resets the terminal.
626 - scrollbar code cleanups.
627 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
628 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
629 - updated to libev 3.0.
630
6318.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
632 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
633 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
634 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
635 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
636 would not clear it visually in another.
637 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
638 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
639 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
640 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
641 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
642 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
643
6448.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
645 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
646 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
647 effects.
648 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
649 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
650 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
651 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
652 text was visible.
653 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
654 some minor improvements.
655 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
656 display and not once per terminal window.
657 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
658
6598.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
660 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
661 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
662 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
663
6648.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
665 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
666 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
667 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
668 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
669 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
670 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
671 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
672
6738.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
674 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
675
6768.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
677 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
678 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
679 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
680 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
681 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
682 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
683 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
684 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
685 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
686 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
687 - parallel builds should work once more.
688
6898.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
690 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
691 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
692 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
693 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
694 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
695 missing DISPLAY.
696 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
697 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
698 - updated io_manager.
699
7008.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
701 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
702 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
703 /usr/X11R6/lib.
704 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
705 patch by Sasha Vasko.
706 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
707 (patch by Philip Paeps).
708 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
709 (patch by Mikachu).
710 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
711 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
712 digit (exg).
713 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
714 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
715 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
716 extension (tpope).
717 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
718 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
719 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
720 problems.
721
7228.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
723 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
724 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
725 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
726 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
727 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
728 (found by Aiviru).
729 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
730 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
731 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
732 case to work around for :/
733 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
734 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
735 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
736 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
737 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
738 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
739 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
740 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
741 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
742 Paskevich).
743 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
744 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
745 - update libptytty.
746 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
747 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
748 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
749 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
750 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
751 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
752 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
753 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
754 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
755
7568.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
757 - ｹﾘｽﾏｽﾌ゚ﾚｾ゙ﾝﾄ - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
758 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
759 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
760 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
761 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
762 Reported by Takano Akio.
763 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
764 reported by exg.
765 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
766 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
767 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
768 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
769
7708.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
771 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
772 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
773 circumstances (reported by exg).
774 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
775 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
776 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
777 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
778 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
779 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
780 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
781 - update to libptytty-1.0.
782 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
783 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
784 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
785 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
786 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
787 bug #143985).
788 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
789 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
790 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
791 - manpage fix by exg.
792
7937.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
794 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
795 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
796 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
797 it does! :->
798 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
799 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
800
8017.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
802 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
803 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
804 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
805 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
806 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
807 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
808 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
809 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
810 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
811 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
812 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
813 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
814 uppercase character.
815 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
816 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
817 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
818 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
819 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
820 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
821 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
822 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
823 generic osc_seq.
824 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
825 were invoked recursively.
826 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
827 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
828 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
829 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
830 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
831 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
832 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
833 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
834 by omatunto_.
835 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
836 follow C++ closely enough.
837 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
838 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
839 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
840 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
841
8427.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
843 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
844 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
845 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
846 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
847 click, and eats the click.
848 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
849 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
850 refresh bugs please.
851 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
852 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
853 improve size hint setting.
854 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
855 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
856 to correctly position their preedit window.
857 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
858 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
859 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
860 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
861 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
862 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
863 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
864 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
865 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
866 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
867 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
868 (reported by Paco-Paco).
869 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
870 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
871 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
872
8737.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
874 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
875 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
876 resource value.
877 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
878 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
879 relevant tab window.
880 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
881 (initial patch by hednod).
882 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
883 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
884 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
885 the benefit of automove-background.
886 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
887 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
888 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
889 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
890 __linux__.
891 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
892 the colour components.
893 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
894 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
895 - more colour rtt optimisations.
896 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
897 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
898 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
899 - minor libptytty update.
900
9017.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
902 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
903 detection:
904 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
905 - overlap detection was improved.
906 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
907 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
908 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
909 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
910 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
911 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
912 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
913 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
914 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
915 broken.
916 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
917 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
918 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
919 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
920 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
921 (patch by Paco-Paco).
922 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
923 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
924 an "[alpha]" prefix.
925 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
926 transparent. Long Live Xft!
927 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
928 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
929 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
930 on a pseudocolor screen.
931 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
932 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
933 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
934 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
935 - small configure updates.
936 - further RTT optimisations.
937 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
938 the debian package.
939 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
940 but much newer than the old one.
941
9427.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
943 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
944 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
945 - small configure updates for libptytty.
946 - fixed version options: line output.
947 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
948
9497.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
950 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
951 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
952 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
953 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
954 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
955 selection extension.
956 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
957 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
958 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
959 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
960 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
961 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
962 needs the careful rendering mode.
963 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
964 too wide and needs careful mode.
965 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
966 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
967 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
968 atoms only once per display.
969 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
970 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
971 xterm.
972
9737.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
974 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
975 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
976 getenv (reproducible: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
977 ctrl-shift-672c).
978 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
979 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
980 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
981 the primary screen.
982 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
983 could lead to an assertion failure.
984 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
985 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
986 via mouse clicks.
987 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
988 with shift - mouse button 2.
989 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
990 in non-synthetic events.
991 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
992 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
993 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
994 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
995 whole urxvt[d] process.
996 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
997 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
998 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
999 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
1000
10017.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
1002 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
1003 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
1004 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
1005 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
1006 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
1007 special privileges.
1008 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
1009 itself.
1010 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
1011 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
1012 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
1013 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
1014 similar stuff.
1015 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
1016 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
1017 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
1018 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
1019 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
1020 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
1021 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
1022 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
1023 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
1024 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
1025 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
1026 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
1027 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
1028 (Emanuele Giaquinta=exg).
1029 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
1030 to set the window title.
1031 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
1032 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
1033 at the wrong time.
1034 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
1035 anymore.
1036 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
1037 - nuked QNX support.
1038 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
1039 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
1040 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
1041 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
1042
10437.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
1044 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
1045 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
1046 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
1047 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
1048 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
1049 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
1050 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
1051 and much much more.
1052 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
1053 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
1054 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
1055 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
1056 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
1057 setuid/setgid.
1058 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
1059 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
1060 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
1061 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
1062 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
1063 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
1064 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
1065 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
1066 compatible, and not really small either.
1067 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
1068 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
1069 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
1070 to crashes.
1071 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
1072 colours.
1073 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
1074 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
1075
10766.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
1077 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
1078 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
1079 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
1080 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
1081 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
1082 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
1083 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
1084 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
1085 by Mikachu).
1086 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
1087 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
1088 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
1089 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
1090 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
1091 Not guaranteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
1092 - fix directory permissions on install.
1093 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
1094 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
1095 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
1096 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
1097 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
1098
10996.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
1100 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
1101 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
1102 Chuck Blake.
1103 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
1104 obscure the mouse cursor position.
1105 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
1106 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
1107 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
1108 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
1109 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
1110 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
1111 transfer efficiency.
1112 - further minor cleanups.
1113
11146.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
1115 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
1116 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
1117 while the user still drags.
1118 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
1119 not drawn correctly.
1120 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
1121 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
1122 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
1123 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
1124 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
1125 stripping whitespace.
1126 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
1127 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
1128
11296.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
1130 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
1131 - enable slow link support by default.
1132 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
1133 (also a bug in original rxvt).
1134 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
1135 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
1136 partial patch).
1137 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
1138 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
1139 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
1140 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless necessary.
1141 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
1142 - implement -hold option.
1143 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
1144 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
1145 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
1146 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
1147 - slight overall speed improvements.
1148 - considerably improved code clarity.
1149 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
1150 buffer.
1151
11525.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
1153 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
1154 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
1155 (matters only for rxvtd).
1156 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
1157 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
1158 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
1159
11605.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
1161 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
1162 If you want the old behaviour, try:
1163 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
1164 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed its meaning to comply with
1165 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
1166 percentage by 100-percentage.
1167 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
1168 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
1169 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
1170 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
1171 windows.
1172 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
1173 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
1174 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
1175 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
1176 - replaced INSTALL file.
1177
11785.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
1179 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
1180 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
1181 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
1182 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
1183 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
1184 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
1185 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
1186 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
1187
11885.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
1189 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
1190 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
1191 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
1192 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apparently
1193 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
1194 Affects display in iso14755 box.
1195 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
1196 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
1197 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
1198 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
1199 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
1200 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
1201 cutting pieces off of characters.
1202 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
1203 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
1204 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
1205 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
1206 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
1207 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
1208 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
1209
12105.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
1211 - re-enabled modifier state matching as in 5.3, but implement
1212 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
1213 meaning of the given key.
1214 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
1215 (patch by Martin Edlman).
1216
12175.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
1218 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
1219 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
1220 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
1221 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
1222 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
1223 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
1224 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
1225 to disable it.
1226
12275.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
1228 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
1229 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
1230 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
1231 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
1232 with modifiers.
1233 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
1234 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
1235 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
1236 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
1237 and clear the scrollback buffer.
1238
12395.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
1240 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
1241 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
1242 a command.
1243 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
1244 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
1245 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
1246 in Perl/Gtk2.
1247 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
1248 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
1249 (reported by Mikael Magnusson=Mikachu).
1250 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
1251 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
1252 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
1253 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not necessary.
1254 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
1255 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
1256 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
1257 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
1258 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
1259 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
1260 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
1261 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
19 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is 1262 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
20 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed 1263 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed
21 rxvt-unicode). 1264 rxvt-unicode).
22 - get rid of the intpro files. 1265 - get rid of the intpro files.
23 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
24 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
25 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
26 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is unreproducible.
27 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
28 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
29 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
30 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
31 1266
325.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005 12675.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005
33 - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one 1268 - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one
