155.2 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
215.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
22 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
23 If you want the old behaviour, try:
24 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
25 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
26 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
27 percentage by 100-percentage.
28 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
29 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
30 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
31 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
32 windows.
33 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
34 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
35 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
36 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
37 - replaced INSTALL file.
38
395.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
40 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
41 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
42 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
43 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
44 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
45 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
46 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
47 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in oriignal rxvt).
48
495.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
50 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
51 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
52 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
53 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
54 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
55 Affects display in iso14755 box.
56 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
57 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
58 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
59 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
60 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
61 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
62 cutting pieces off of characters.
63 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
64 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
65 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
66 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
67 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
68 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
69 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
70
715.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
72 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
73 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
74 meaning of the given key.
75 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
76 (patch by Martin Edlman).
77
785.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
79 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
80 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
81 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
82 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
83 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
84 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
85 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
86 to disble it.
87
885.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
89 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
90 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
91 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
92 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
93 with modifiers.
94 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
95 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
96 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
97 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
98 and clear the scrollback buffer.

105 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
106 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
