208.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
21 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
22 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
23 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
24 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
25 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
26 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
27 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
28 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internaly using :root op in pixmap
29 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
30 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
31 - parallel builds should work once more.
32
338.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
34 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
35 - fix possible race betwen visual bell and poweron.
36 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
37 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
38 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
39 missing DISPLAY.
40 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
41 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
42 - updated io_manager.
43
448.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
45 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
46 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
47 /usr/X11R6/lib.
48 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
49 patch by Sasha Vasko.
50 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
51 (patch by Philip Paeps).
52 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
53 (patch by Mikachu).
54 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
55 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
56 digit (exg).
57 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
58 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
59 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
60 extension (tpope).
61 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
62 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
63 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
64 problems.
65
668.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
67 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
68 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
69 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
70 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
71 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
72 (found by Aiviru).
73 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
74 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
75 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
76 case to work around for :/
77 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
78 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
79 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
80 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
81 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
82 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
83 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
84 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
85 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
86 Paskevich).
87 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
88 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
89 - update libptytty.
90 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
91 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
92 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
93 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
94 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
95 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
96 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
97 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
98 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
99
1008.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
101 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
102 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
103 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
104 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
105 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
106 Reported by Takano Akio.
107 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
108 reported by exg.
109 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
110 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
111 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
112 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
113
1148.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
115 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
116 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
117 circumstances (reported by exg).
118 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
119 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
120 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
121 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
122 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
123 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
124 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
125 - update to libptytty-1.0.
126 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
127 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
128 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
129 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
130 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
131 bug #143985).
132 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
133 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
134 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
135 - manpage fix by exg.
136
1377.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
138 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
139 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
140 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
141 it does! :->
142 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
143 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
144
1457.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
146 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
147 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
148 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
149 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
150 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
151 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
152 terminal emulator (see man urxtvperl).
153 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
154 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
155 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
156 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
157 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
158 uppercase character.
159 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
160 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
161 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
162 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
163 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
164 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
165 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
166 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
167 generic osc_seq.
168 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
169 were invoked recursively.
170 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
171 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
172 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
173 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
174 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
175 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
176 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
177 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
178 by omatunto_.
179 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
180 follow C++ closely enough.
181 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
182 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
183 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
184 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
185
1867.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
187 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
188 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
189 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
190 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
191 click, and eats the click.
192 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
193 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
194 refresh bugs please.
195 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
196 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
197 improve size hint setting.
198 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
199 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
200 to correctly position their preedit window.
201 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
202 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
203 in empty spaces, but thats not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
204 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
205 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
206 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
207 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
208 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
209 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
210 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
211 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
212 (reported by Paco-Paco).
213 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
214 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
215 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
216
2177.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
218 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
219 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
220 resource value.
221 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
222 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and keys events to th
223 relevant tab window.
224 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
225 (initial patch by hednod).
226 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
227 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
228 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
229 the benefit of automove-background.
230 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
231 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
232 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
233 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
234 __linux__.
235 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
236 the colour components.
237 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
238 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
239 - more colour rtt optimisations.
240 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
241 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
242 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
243 - minor libptytty update.
244
2457.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
246 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
247 detection:
248 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
249 - overlap detection was improved.
250 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
251 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
252 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
253 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
254 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
255 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
256 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
257 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
258 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
259 broken.
260 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
261 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
262 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
263 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
264 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
265 (patch by Paco-Paco).
266 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
267 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
268 an "[alpha]" prefix.
269 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
270 transparent. Long Live Xft!
271 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
272 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
273 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
274 on a pseudocolor screen.
275 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
276 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
277 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
278 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
279 - small configure updates.
280 - further RTT optimisations.
281 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
282 the debian package.
283 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
284 but much newer than the old one.
285
2867.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
287 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
288 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
289 - small configure updates for libptytty.
290 - fixed version options: line output.
291 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
292
2937.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
294 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
295 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
296 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
297 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
298 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
299 selection extension.
300 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
301 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
302 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
303 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
304 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
305 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
306 needs the careful rendering mode.
307 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
308 too wide and needs careful mode.
309 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
310 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
311 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
312 atoms only once per display.
313 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
314 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
315 xterm.
316
3177.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
318 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
319 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
320 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
321 ctrl-shift-672c).
322 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
323 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
324 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
325 the primary screen.
326 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
327 could lead to an assertion failure.
328 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
329 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
330 via mouse clicks.
331 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
332 with shift - mouse button 2.
333 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
334 in non-synthetic events.
335 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
336 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
337 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
338 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
339 whole urxvt[d] process.
340 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
341 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
342 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
343 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
344
3457.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
346 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
347 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
348 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
349 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
350 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
351 special privileges.
352 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
353 itself.
354 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
355 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
356 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
357 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
358 similar stuff.
359 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
360 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
361 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
362 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
363 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
364 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
365 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
366 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
367 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
368 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
369 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
370 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
371 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
372 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
373 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
374 to set the window title.
375 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
376 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
377 at the wrong time.
378 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
379 anymore.
380 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
381 - nuked QNX support.
382 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
383 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
384 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
385 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
386
3877.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
388 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
389 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
390 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
391 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
392 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
393 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
394 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
395 and much much more.
396 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
397 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
398 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
399 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
400 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
401 setuid/setgid.
402 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
403 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
404 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
405 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
406 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
407 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
408 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
409 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
410 compatible, and not really small either.
411 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
412 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
413 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
414 to crashes.
415 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
416 colours.
417 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
418 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
419
4206.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
421 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
422 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
423 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
424 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
425 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
426 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
427 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
428 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
429 by Mikachu).
430 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
431 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
432 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
433 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
434 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
435 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
436 - fix directory permissions on install.
437 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
438 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
439 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
440 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
441 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
442
4436.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
444 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
445 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
446 Chuck Blake.
447 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
448 obscure the mouse cursor position.
449 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
450 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
451 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
452 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
453 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
454 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
455 transfer efficiency.
456 - further minor cleanups.
457
4586.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
459 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
460 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
461 while the user still drags.
462 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
463 not drawn correctly.
464 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
465 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
466 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
467 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
468 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
469 stripping whitespace.
470 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
471 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
472
4736.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
474 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
475 - enable slow link support by default.
476 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
477 (also a bug in original rxvt).
478 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
479 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
480 partial patch).
481 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
482 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
483 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
484 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
485 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
486 - implement -hold option.
487 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
488 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
489 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
490 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
491 - slight overall speed improvements.
492 - considerably improved code clarity.
493 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
494 buffer.
495
4965.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
497 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
498 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
499 (matters only for rxvtd).
500 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
501 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
502 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
503
5045.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
505 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
506 If you want the old behaviour, try:
507 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
508 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
509 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
510 percentage by 100-percentage.
511 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
512 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
513 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
514 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
515 windows.
516 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
517 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
518 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
519 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
520 - replaced INSTALL file.
521
5225.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
523 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
524 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
525 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
526 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
527 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
528 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
529 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
530 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
531
5325.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
533 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
534 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
535 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
536 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
537 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
538 Affects display in iso14755 box.
539 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
540 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
541 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
542 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
543 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
544 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
545 cutting pieces off of characters.
546 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
547 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
548 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
549 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
550 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
551 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
552 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
553
5545.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
555 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
556 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
557 meaning of the given key.
558 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
559 (patch by Martin Edlman).
560
5615.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
562 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
563 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
564 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
565 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
566 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
567 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
568 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
569 to disable it.
570
5715.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
572 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
573 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
574 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
575 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
576 with modifiers.
577 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
578 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
579 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
580 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
581 and clear the scrollback buffer.
582
5835.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
584 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
585 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
586 a command.
587 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
588 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
589 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
590 in Perl/Gtk2.
591 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
592 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
593 (reported by Mikael Magnusson).
594 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
595 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
596 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
597 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
598 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
599 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
600 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
601 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
602 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
603 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
604 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
605 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
19 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is 606 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
