1Lines marked with "xterm:" indicate either xterm features ported to rxvt 1TODO: do font request caching, might help rxvtd on some machines
2or changed rxvt behaviour to make it more compatible to xterm (usually 2TODO: manpage 900mb update
3xfree86's xterm). 3TODO: safer command: keymap processing.

13WISH: just for fun, do shade and tint with XRender.
14
15 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
16 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
17 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
18 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
19 and clear the scrollback buffer.
20
215.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
22 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
23 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
24 a command.
25 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
26 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
27 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
28 in Perl/Gtk2.
29 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
30 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
31 (reported by Mikael Magnusson).
32 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
33 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
34 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
35 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
36 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
37 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
38 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
39 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
40 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
41 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
42 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
43 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
44 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
45 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed
46 rxvt-unicode).
47 - get rid of the intpro files.
48
495.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005
50 - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one
51 for empty keymaps which could result in crashes
52 (Kuang-che Wu).
53 - new option: -embed (frills). somebody could write a simple
54 tk script to make a tab'able terminal now...
55 - only warn on X errors and _try_ to continue (frills).
56 - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow.
57 - after deciding that LSM is dead, remove all traces of it,
58 along with other, similar, cleanups.
59 - _try_ to react sensibly to some non-monotonic time changes.
60 - don't crash in urxvtc when getcwd fails (reported by Paco-Paco).
61 - tweak font searching algorithm a bit to be faster and more
62 compatible with older rxvt-unicode versions when multiple fonts
63 match (reported by Paco-Paco).
64 - urxvtd tries to stay in "/" whenever possible.
65
665.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005
67 - document a race-free hack to start urxvtd.
68 - document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt.
69 - bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with
70 Xt, and document it in rxvt(1).
71 - correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault,
72 and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for
73 his patience and time in tracking this down).
74 - bring own resource parsing more in line with X resource parsing,
75 most notably, don't remove double quotes.
76 - compile fix for freebsd (no ut_id) (Thierry Thomas).
77 - clean up utmp and pty on X I/O errors and signals (idea
78 by Joël Riou).
79 - "un"document -xrm, it never really worked, was only
80 available with --enable-xgetdefault, is not necessary
81 and is surprisingly hard to implement.
82 - shaved off some code segment size.
83 - various code cleanups.
84 - more keysym-mapping fixes.
85
864.9 Thu Feb 3 09:52:03 CET 2005
87 - nuke out utmp entries completely. Should be fixed in
88 original rxvt, too. (reported by James Michael Fultz).
89 - resizes wil now correctly refresh the displayed text when
90 -pixmap is active.
91 - new option/resource imFont.
92 - document --tripleclickwords/-tcw.
93 - select logical instead of physical lines when doing a triple-click.
94 - reordered help listing to group similar options together.
95 - handle SIGINT the same way as SIGTERM (reported by Joël Riou).
96 - fix a bug introduced while applying the keyboard patch
97 (WU Fengguang).
98 - document all window-op sequences (rxvt.7.) and more keysym
99 examples (rxvt.1).
100 - removed src/test completely.
101 - renamed keysym 'proto:'-prefix to 'command:'.
102
1034.8 Tue Jan 18 02:23:57 CET 2005
104 - added a patch by WU Fengguang that makes the keyboard
105 highly configurable (e.g. locale changes, custom escape
106 sequences, and more). See keysym resource in rxvt(1).
107 - remove default key sequence for unknown keys again, as this
108 can be achieved by customizing the keyboard now.
109 - fix some freeing problems when destroying the rxvt_display,
110 resulting in segfaults.
111 - don't crash when the saved cursor position doesn't fit on the
112 screen (wrong assert in original rxvt, reported by ikaro).
113 - fix signed/unsigned bugs on wc<->mb conversions.
114 - reset slipwheel scrolling speed when reaching the top or bottom
115 (Mikael Magnusson).
116 - for core fonts, use ascent + descent when a font is loaded,
117 and PIXEL_SIZE when not. when loading a font, iterate until a
118 font has been found that _really_ fits the height (reported and
119 tested by Olivier Wittenberg).
120 - set IUTF8 input flag, when defined (linux-2.6.5+).
121 - only define _XOPEN_SOURCE on solaris.
122 - autogenerate src/* dependency list.
123 - fixed linespace option, which ought to work now (and is dependent
124 on frills, not on it's own configure option).
125 - include pty.h, if available (cygwin).
126 - removed W11 directory from dist, it wasn't used anyway.
127 - initialize the locale much earlier.
128 - fixed two tiny per-instance memory leaks.
129
1304.7 Wed Dec 29 20:54:24 CET 2004
131 - fix a bug in the event logic that could cause the temrinal to be
132 black on initial startup.
133 - do NOT call XCloseIM, ever. This causes way to many crashes due to
134 races in the protocol and within Xlib.
135 - map iso-left-tab to the same sequence as shift-tab.
136 - generate a unique escape sequence for many unknown keys, such as
137 additional multimedia keys.
138 - mask out high (non-unicode) bits on wide characters, to cope with
139 implementations that store tag info in the high bits.
140
1414.6 Thu Dec 16 07:54:23 CET 2004
142 - try very hard not to exhaust the kernel tty buffers, even
143 if it slows down large pastes and is only cosmetic.
144 - streamline atom and xft color allocation to reduce startup
145 time (12.8s -> 7.8s on my dsl). Still, doing it with only 2-3
146 turnarounds would be much faster, but impossible to implement(?).
147 - implement underlineColor resource when ENABLE_FRILLS.
148 - iom left it's signal pipe handle open in the child
149 process. Fortunately not security-relevant as the pipe data gets
150 ignored.
151 - do not use XSETROOTPMAP_ID anymore, support ESETROOT_PMAP_ID
152 instead.
153 - fix a crash in rxvtd when the last window was being closed
154 (reported by hednod).
155 - fix an unlikely memory leak.
156 - fix atom name enumeration.
157
1584.5 Mon Dec 13 07:47:16 CET 2004
159 - fix an extremely nasty bug in utf8-conversion. upgrade is advised.
160 - completely re-wrote selection pasting. This should fix garbled
161 incomplete characters at 32k boundaries and too-short INCR
162 selections, and more. Increases memory requirements considerably
163 for large selections, but that seems unavoidable.
164
1654.4 Sun Dec 12 22:10:06 CET 2004
166 - rewrote handling of default-char width.
167 - implement _NET_WM_NAME et al., and also use UTF8_STRING
168 for the xterm property esc. sequence. Allows i18n window
169 titles etc.
170 - SMART_WINDOW_TITLE removed, pls. complain if you need this.
171 - added GBK encoding (formidable patch by WU Fengguang).
172 - fixed a bug in the transparency code.
173 - upgraded iom.[Ch].
174 - force slower (but more responsive) transparency update.
175 - fix off-by-one bug with wide characters at the end of a line,
176 which got partially overwritten by spaces.
177 - as xlib is completely broken with respect to utf-8 handling
178 and nobody is going to fix it, that part has been re-implemented.
179 should fix most paste problems between apps that use UTF8 encoding
180 and rxvt running in a lesser-supported locale (thanks to Robin Redeker
181 for writing utf8towcs). Only enabled with ENABLE_FRILLS.
182 - darwin compile fix by Ethan Blanton.
183 - fix the colour of the underline, which was rather random before.
184
1854.3 Sat Dec 4 04:58:37 CET 2004
186 - unapply the "emulated graphical chars. respect wcwidth" patch.
187 obviously in locales not having these characters they should
188 still have a width. Solve it correctly by not relying on wcwidth.
189 Note to self: do not ever apply patches without checking them
190 thoroughly.
191 - updated .spec file, it's included in the release tarball
192 now, too.
