14 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
15
165.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
17 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
18 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
19 (matters only for rxvtd).
20 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
21 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
22 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
23
245.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
25 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
26 If you want the old behaviour, try:
27 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
28 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
29 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
30 percentage by 100-percentage.
31 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
32 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
33 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
34 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
35 windows.
36 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
37 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
38 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
39 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
40 - replaced INSTALL file.
41
425.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
43 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
44 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
45 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
46 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
47 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
48 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
49 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
50 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in oriignal rxvt).
51
525.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
53 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
54 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
55 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
56 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
57 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
58 Affects display in iso14755 box.
59 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
60 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
61 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
62 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
63 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
64 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
65 cutting pieces off of characters.
66 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
67 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
68 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
69 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
70 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
71 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
72 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
73
745.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
75 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
76 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
77 meaning of the given key.
78 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
79 (patch by Martin Edlman).
80
815.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
82 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
83 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
84 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
85 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
86 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
87 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
88 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
89 to disable it.
90
915.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
92 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
93 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
94 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
95 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
96 with modifiers.
97 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
98 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
99 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
100 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
101 and clear the scrollback buffer.
102
1035.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
104 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
105 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
106 a command.
107 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
108 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
109 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
110 in Perl/Gtk2.
111 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
112 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
113 (reported by Mikael Magnusson).
114 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
115 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
116 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
117 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
118 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
119 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
120 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
121 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
122 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
123 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
124 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
125 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
19 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is 126 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
20 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed 127 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed

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).
