29 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
30 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
31 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
32 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
33 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
34 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
35 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
36 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
37 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
38 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
39 characters other than first one in the selected cell
40 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
41 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
42 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
43 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
44 (found by Mikachu).

46 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
47 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
48 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
49 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
50 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
51 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
52 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).

57 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
58 88*88 possible pairs.
59 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in

61 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
62 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
63 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
64 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
65 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
66 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
67 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
68 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
69 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
70 backspacekey was given.

77
789.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
79 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
80 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
81 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
82 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
83 Mikachu).
84 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
85 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
86 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
87 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
88 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
89 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
90 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
91 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
92 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
93 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
94 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
95 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
96 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
97 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
98 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
99 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
100 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
101 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
102 - update to libptytty 1.3.
103 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
104 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
105 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
106 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
107 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
108 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
109 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
110 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
111 in need of fixing. go figure.
112 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
113 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
114 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
115 the new ->selection_screen method.
116 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
117 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
118 - fix printpipe data output (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
119 - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection.
120 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.
121 - updated compose tables to unicode 5.2.0.
122
1239.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
124 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
125 - updates libev to 3.48.
126 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
127 when a window was closed.
128 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
129 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
130 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
131 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
132 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
133 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
134 makes copy&paste work.
135 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
136 no longer apply.
137 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
138 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
139 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
140 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
141 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
142 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
143 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
144 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
145 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
146 the only known workaround.
147 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
148 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
149 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
150 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
151 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
152 disabling size hints.
153 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
154 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
155 as mouse reporting.
156 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
157 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
158 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
159 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
160 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
161 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
162 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
163 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
164 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
165 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
166 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
167 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
168
1699.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
170 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
171 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
172 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
173 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
174 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
175 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
176 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
177 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
178 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
179 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
180 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
181 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
182 help working window managers as well.
183 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
184 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
185 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
186 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
187 from the toplevel window to the children.
188 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
189 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
190 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
191 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
192
1939.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
194 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
195 - fix build with !xft.
196 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
197
1989.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
199 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
200 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
201 received" problem, again :)
202 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
203
2049.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
205 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
206 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
207 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
208 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
209 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
210 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
211 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
212 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
213 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
214 channels or background images are used.
215 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
216 till the first event arrives. or so.
217 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
218 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
219 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
220 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
221 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
222 resets the terminal.
223 - scrollbar code cleanups.
224 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
225 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
226 - updated to libev 3.0.
227
2288.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
229 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
230 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
231 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
232 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
233 would not clear it visually in another.
234 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
235 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
236 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
237 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
238 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
239 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
240
2418.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
242 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
243 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
244 effects.
245 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
246 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
247 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
248 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
249 text was visible.
250 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
251 some minor improvements.
252 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
253 display and not once per terminal window.
254 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
255
2568.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
257 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
258 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
259 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
260
2618.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
262 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
263 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
264 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
265 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
266 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
267 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
268 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
269
2708.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
271 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
272
2738.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
274 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
275 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
276 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
277 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
278 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
279 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
280 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
281 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
282 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
283 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
284 - parallel builds should work once more.
285
2868.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
287 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
288 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
289 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
290 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
291 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
292 missing DISPLAY.
293 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
294 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
295 - updated io_manager.
296
2978.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
298 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
299 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
300 /usr/X11R6/lib.
301 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
302 patch by Sasha Vasko.
303 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
304 (patch by Philip Paeps).
305 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
306 (patch by Mikachu).
307 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
308 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
309 digit (exg).
310 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
311 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
312 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
313 extension (tpope).
314 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
315 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
316 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
317 problems.
318
3198.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
320 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
321 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
322 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
323 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
324 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
325 (found by Aiviru).
326 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
327 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
328 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
329 case to work around for :/
330 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
331 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
332 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
333 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
334 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
335 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
336 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
337 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
338 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
339 Paskevich).
340 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
341 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
342 - update libptytty.
343 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
344 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
345 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
346 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
347 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
348 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
349 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
350 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
351 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
352
3538.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
354 - ｹﾘｽﾏｽﾌ゚ﾚｾ゙ﾝﾄ - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
355 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
356 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
357 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
358 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
359 Reported by Takano Akio.
360 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
361 reported by exg.
362 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
363 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
364 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
365 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
366
3678.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
368 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
369 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
370 circumstances (reported by exg).
371 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
372 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
373 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
374 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
375 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
376 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
377 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
378 - update to libptytty-1.0.
379 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
380 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
381 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
382 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
383 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
384 bug #143985).
385 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
386 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
387 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
388 - manpage fix by exg.
389
3907.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
391 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
392 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
393 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
394 it does! :->
395 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
396 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
397
3987.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
399 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
400 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
401 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
402 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
403 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
404 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
405 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
406 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
407 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
408 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
409 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
410 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
411 uppercase character.
412 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
413 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
414 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
415 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
416 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
417 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
418 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
419 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
420 generic osc_seq.
421 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
422 were invoked recursively.
423 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
424 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
425 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
426 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
427 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
428 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
429 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
430 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
431 by omatunto_.
432 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
433 follow C++ closely enough.
434 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
435 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
436 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
437 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
438
4397.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
440 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
441 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
442 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
443 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
444 click, and eats the click.
445 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
446 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
447 refresh bugs please.
448 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
449 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
450 improve size hint setting.
451 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
452 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
453 to correctly position their preedit window.
454 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
455 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
456 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
457 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
458 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
459 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
460 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
461 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
462 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
463 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
464 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
465 (reported by Paco-Paco).
466 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
467 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
468 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
469
4707.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
471 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
472 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
473 resource value.
474 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
475 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
476 relevant tab window.
477 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
478 (initial patch by hednod).
479 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
480 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
481 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
482 the benefit of automove-background.
483 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
484 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
485 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
486 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
487 __linux__.
488 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
489 the colour components.
490 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
491 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
492 - more colour rtt optimisations.
493 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
494 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
495 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
496 - minor libptytty update.
497
4987.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
499 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
500 detection:
501 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
502 - overlap detection was improved.
503 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
504 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
505 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
506 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
507 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
508 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
509 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
510 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
511 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
512 broken.
513 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
514 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
515 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
516 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
517 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
518 (patch by Paco-Paco).
519 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
520 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
521 an "[alpha]" prefix.
522 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
523 transparent. Long Live Xft!
524 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
525 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
526 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
527 on a pseudocolor screen.
528 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
529 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
530 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
531 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
532 - small configure updates.
533 - further RTT optimisations.
534 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
535 the debian package.
536 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
537 but much newer than the old one.
538
5397.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
540 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
541 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
542 - small configure updates for libptytty.
543 - fixed version options: line output.
544 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
545
5467.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
547 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
548 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
549 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
550 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
551 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
552 selection extension.
553 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
554 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
555 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
556 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
557 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
558 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
559 needs the careful rendering mode.
560 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
561 too wide and needs careful mode.
562 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
563 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
564 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
565 atoms only once per display.
566 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
567 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
568 xterm.
569
5707.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
571 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
572 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
573 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
574 ctrl-shift-672c).
575 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
576 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
577 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
578 the primary screen.
579 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
580 could lead to an assertion failure.
581 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
582 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
583 via mouse clicks.
584 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
585 with shift - mouse button 2.
586 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
587 in non-synthetic events.
588 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
589 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
590 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
591 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
592 whole urxvt[d] process.
593 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
594 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
595 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
596 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
597
5987.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
599 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
600 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
601 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
602 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
603 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
604 special privileges.
605 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
606 itself.
607 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
608 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
609 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
610 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
611 similar stuff.
612 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
613 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
614 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
615 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
616 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
617 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
618 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
619 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
620 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
621 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
622 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
623 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
624 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
625 (Emanuele Giaquinta=exg).
626 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
627 to set the window title.
628 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
629 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
630 at the wrong time.
631 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
632 anymore.
633 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
634 - nuked QNX support.
635 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
636 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
637 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
638 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
639
6407.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
641 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
642 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
643 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
644 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
645 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
646 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
647 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
648 and much much more.
649 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
650 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
651 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
652 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
653 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
654 setuid/setgid.
655 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
656 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
657 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
658 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
659 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
660 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
661 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
662 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
663 compatible, and not really small either.
664 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
665 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
666 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
667 to crashes.
668 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
669 colours.
670 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
671 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
672
6736.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
674 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
675 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
676 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
677 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
678 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
679 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
680 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
681 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
682 by Mikachu).
683 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
684 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
685 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
686 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
687 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
688 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
689 - fix directory permissions on install.
690 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
691 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
692 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
693 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
694 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
695
6966.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
697 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
698 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
699 Chuck Blake.
700 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
701 obscure the mouse cursor position.
702 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
703 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
704 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
705 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
706 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
707 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
708 transfer efficiency.
709 - further minor cleanups.
710
7116.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
712 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
713 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
714 while the user still drags.
715 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
716 not drawn correctly.
717 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
718 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
719 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
720 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
721 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
722 stripping whitespace.
723 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
724 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
725
7266.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
727 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
728 - enable slow link support by default.
729 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
730 (also a bug in original rxvt).
731 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
732 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
733 partial patch).
734 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
735 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
736 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
737 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
738 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
739 - implement -hold option.
740 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
741 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
742 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
743 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
744 - slight overall speed improvements.
745 - considerably improved code clarity.
746 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
747 buffer.
748
7495.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
750 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
751 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
752 (matters only for rxvtd).
753 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
754 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
755 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
756
7575.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
758 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
759 If you want the old behaviour, try:
760 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
761 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
762 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
763 percentage by 100-percentage.
764 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
765 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
766 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
767 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
768 windows.
769 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
770 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
771 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
772 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
773 - replaced INSTALL file.
774
7755.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
776 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
777 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
778 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
779 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
780 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
781 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
782 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
783 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
784
7855.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
786 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
787 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
788 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
789 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
790 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
791 Affects display in iso14755 box.
792 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
793 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
794 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
795 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
796 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
797 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
798 cutting pieces off of characters.
799 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
800 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
801 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
802 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
803 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
804 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
805 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
806
8075.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
808 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
809 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
810 meaning of the given key.
811 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
812 (patch by Martin Edlman).
813
8145.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
815 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
816 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
817 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
818 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
819 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
820 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
821 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
822 to disable it.
823
8245.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
825 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
826 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
827 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
828 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
829 with modifiers.
830 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
831 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
832 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
833 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
834 and clear the scrollback buffer.
835
8365.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
16 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave 837 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
17 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting 838 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
18 a command. 839 a command.
19 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus. 840 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
841 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
842 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
843 in Perl/Gtk2.
844 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
845 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
846 (reported by Mikael Magnusson=Mikachu).
20 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt 847 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
