1TODO: do font request caching, might help rxvtd on some machines 1rxvt-unicode changelog <= google-friendly title
2TODO: manpage 900mb update 2
3TODO: safer command: keymap processing. 3TODO: init_secondary serves what purpose? maybe move it to earlier startup phase and re-think
4TODO: xcopyarea pass broken, fix and improve
5TODO: event mechanism that replaces on_user_command with something more scalable.

4TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts 8TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts, pango!
5TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc. 9TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
6WISH: keyboard modification via esc-sequences. 10TODO: slow drag selection on remote display - other things seem fast (rxvt illness, motion hints?)
7WISH: line-rewrapping on resize 11TODO: better resource handling for tabbar in -pe tabbed.
8WISH: searchable backlog 12WISH: investigate -pe tabbed -g 80x25 being 23 not 24 or 25 lines
9WISH: meta-tagging of data by regex (my dream project) 13 => when setting the constraints, the wm might (correctly)
10WISH: double-click: more intelligent (urls etc.) 14 resize the outer window, which might result in a smaller window overall.
11WISH: OnTheSpot editing, or maybe switch to miiiiiiif 15 or something like that. guys, send me a patch.
12WISH: tabbed windows (hey, just use screen...) 16WISH: coloured pastebin
13WISH: just for fun, do shade and tint with XRender. 17WISH: selection-color-pair instead of reverse video
18WISH: load system-wide config file even if we don't have one
19WISH: look into XAddConnectionWatch, does anybody need that?
20DUMB: support tex fonts
14 21
22TODO: perl-shell-window?
23TODO: zweimal numlock? falsche codes rxvt urxvt for numpad?
24 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
25 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
26 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
27 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
28 Mikachu).
29 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
30 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
31 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
32 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
33 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
34 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
35 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
36 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
37 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
38 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
39 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
40 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
41 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
42 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
43 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
44 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
45 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
46 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
47 - update to libptytty 1.3.
48 - replace maxosc-pastebin by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
49 the old version to macosx-pastebin-native.
50 - document the -uc option (exg).
51 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
52 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
53 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
54 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
55 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
56 in need of fixing. go figure.
57 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
58 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
59 to the current screen. the srceen can be manipulated using
60 the new ->selection_screen method.
61 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
62 (based on patch by exg).
63 - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection.
64 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.
65
669.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
67 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
68 - updates libev to 3.48.
69 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
70 when a window was closed.
71 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
72 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
73 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
74 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
75 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
76 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
77 makes copy&paste work.
78 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
79 no longer apply.
80 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
81 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
82 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
83 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
84 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
85 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
86 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
87 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
88 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
89 the only known workaround.
90 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
91 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
92 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
93 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that errornously resize
94 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
95 disabling size hints.
96 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
97 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
98 as mouse reporting.
99 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
100 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
101 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
102 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
103 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
104 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
105 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
106 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
107 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
108 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
109 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
110 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
111
1129.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
113 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
114 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
115 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
116 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
117 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
118 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
119 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
120 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
121 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
122 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
123 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
124 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
125 help working window managers as well.
126 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
127 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
128 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
129 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
130 from the toplevel window to the children.
131 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
132 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
133 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
134 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
135
1369.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
137 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
138 - fix build with !xft.
139 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
140
1419.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
142 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
143 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
144 received" problem, again :)
145 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
146
1479.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
148 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
149 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
150 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
151 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
152 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
153 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
154 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
155 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
156 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
157 channels or background images are used.
158 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
159 till the first event arrives. or so.
160 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
161 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
162 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
163 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
164 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
165 resets the terminal.
166 - scrollbar code cleanups.
167 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
168 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
169 - updated to libev 3.0.
170
1718.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
172 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
173 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
174 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
175 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
176 would not clear it visually in another.
177 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
178 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
179 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
180 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
181 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
182 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
183
1848.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
185 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
186 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
187 effects.
188 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
189 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
190 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
191 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
192 text was visible.
193 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
194 some minor improvements.
195 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
196 display and not once per terminal window.
197 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
198
1998.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
200 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
201 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
202 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
203
2048.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
205 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
206 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
207 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
208 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
209 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
210 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
211 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
212
2138.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
214 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
215
2168.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
217 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
218 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
219 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
220 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
221 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
222 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
223 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
224 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
225 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
226 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
227 - parallel builds should work once more.
228
2298.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
230 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
231 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
232 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
233 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
234 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
235 missing DISPLAY.
236 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
237 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
238 - updated io_manager.
239
2408.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
241 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
242 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
243 /usr/X11R6/lib.
244 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
245 patch by Sasha Vasko.
246 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
247 (patch by Philip Paeps).
248 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
249 (patch by Mikachu).
250 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
251 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
252 digit (exg).
253 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
254 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
255 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
256 extension (tpope).
257 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
258 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
259 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
260 problems.
261
2628.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
263 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
264 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
265 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
266 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
267 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
268 (found by Aiviru).
269 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
270 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
271 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
272 case to work around for :/
273 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
274 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
275 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
276 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
277 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
278 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
279 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
280 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
281 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
282 Paskevich).
283 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
284 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
285 - update libptytty.
286 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
287 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
288 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
289 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
290 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
291 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
292 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
293 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
294 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
295
2968.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
297 - ｹﾘｽﾏｽﾌ゚ﾚｾ゙ﾝﾄ - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
298 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
299 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
300 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
301 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
302 Reported by Takano Akio.
303 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
304 reported by exg.
305 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
306 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
307 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
308 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
309
3108.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
311 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
312 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
313 circumstances (reported by exg).
314 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
315 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
316 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
317 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
318 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
319 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
320 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
321 - update to libptytty-1.0.
322 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
323 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
324 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
325 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
326 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
327 bug #143985).
328 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
329 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
330 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
331 - manpage fix by exg.
332
3337.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
334 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
335 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
336 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
337 it does! :->
338 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
339 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
340
3417.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
342 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
343 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
344 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
345 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
346 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
347 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
348 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
349 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
350 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
351 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
352 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
353 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
354 uppercase character.
355 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
356 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
357 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
358 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
359 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
360 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
361 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
362 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
363 generic osc_seq.
364 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
365 were invoked recursively.
366 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
367 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
368 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
369 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
370 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
371 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
372 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
373 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
374 by omatunto_.
375 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
376 follow C++ closely enough.
377 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
378 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
379 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
380 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
381
3827.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
383 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
384 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
385 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
386 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
387 click, and eats the click.
388 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
389 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
390 refresh bugs please.
391 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
392 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
393 improve size hint setting.
394 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
395 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
396 to correctly position their preedit window.
397 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
398 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
399 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
400 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
401 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
402 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
403 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
404 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
405 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
406 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
407 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
408 (reported by Paco-Paco).
409 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
410 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
411 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
412
4137.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
414 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
415 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
416 resource value.
417 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
418 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
419 relevant tab window.
420 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
421 (initial patch by hednod).
422 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
423 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
424 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
425 the benefit of automove-background.
426 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
427 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
428 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
429 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
430 __linux__.
431 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
432 the colour components.
433 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
434 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
435 - more colour rtt optimisations.
436 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
437 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
438 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
439 - minor libptytty update.
440
4417.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
442 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
443 detection:
444 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
445 - overlap detection was improved.
446 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
447 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
448 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
449 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
450 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
451 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
452 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
453 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
454 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
455 broken.
456 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
457 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
458 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
459 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
460 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
461 (patch by Paco-Paco).
462 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
463 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
464 an "[alpha]" prefix.
465 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
466 transparent. Long Live Xft!
467 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
468 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
469 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
470 on a pseudocolor screen.
471 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
472 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
473 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
474 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
475 - small configure updates.
476 - further RTT optimisations.
477 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
478 the debian package.
479 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
480 but much newer than the old one.
481
4827.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
483 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
484 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
485 - small configure updates for libptytty.
486 - fixed version options: line output.
487 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
488
4897.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
490 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
491 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
492 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
493 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
494 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
495 selection extension.
496 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
497 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
498 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
499 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
500 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
501 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
502 needs the careful rendering mode.
503 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
504 too wide and needs careful mode.
505 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
506 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
507 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
508 atoms only once per display.
509 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
510 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
511 xterm.
512
5137.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
514 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
515 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
516 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
517 ctrl-shift-672c).
518 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
519 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
520 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
521 the primary screen.
522 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
523 could lead to an assertion failure.
524 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
525 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
526 via mouse clicks.
527 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
528 with shift - mouse button 2.
529 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
530 in non-synthetic events.
531 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
532 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
533 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
534 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
535 whole urxvt[d] process.
536 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
537 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
538 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
539 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
540
5417.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
542 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
543 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
544 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
545 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
546 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
547 special privileges.
548 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
549 itself.
550 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
551 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
552 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
553 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
554 similar stuff.
555 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
556 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
557 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
558 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
559 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
560 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
561 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
562 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
563 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
564 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
565 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
566 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
567 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
568 (Emanuele Giaquinta=exg).
569 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
570 to set the window title.
571 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
572 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
573 at the wrong time.
574 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
575 anymore.
576 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
577 - nuked QNX support.
578 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
579 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
580 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
581 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
582
5837.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
584 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
585 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
586 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
587 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
588 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
589 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
590 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
591 and much much more.
592 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
593 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
594 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
595 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
596 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
597 setuid/setgid.
598 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
599 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
600 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
601 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
602 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
603 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
604 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
605 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
606 compatible, and not really small either.
607 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
608 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
609 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
610 to crashes.
611 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
612 colours.
613 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
614 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
615
6166.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
617 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
618 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
619 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
620 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
621 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
622 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
623 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
624 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
625 by Mikachu).
626 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
627 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
628 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
629 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
630 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
631 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
632 - fix directory permissions on install.
633 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
634 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
635 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
636 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
637 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
638
6396.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
640 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
641 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
642 Chuck Blake.
643 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
644 obscure the mouse cursor position.
645 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
646 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
647 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
648 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
649 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
650 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
651 transfer efficiency.
652 - further minor cleanups.
653
6546.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
655 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
656 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
657 while the user still drags.
658 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
659 not drawn correctly.
660 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
661 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
662 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
663 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
664 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
665 stripping whitespace.
666 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
667 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
668
6696.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
670 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
671 - enable slow link support by default.
672 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
673 (also a bug in original rxvt).
674 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
675 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
676 partial patch).
677 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
678 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
679 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
680 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
681 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
682 - implement -hold option.
683 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
684 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
685 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
686 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
687 - slight overall speed improvements.
688 - considerably improved code clarity.
689 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
690 buffer.
691
6925.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
693 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
694 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
695 (matters only for rxvtd).
696 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
697 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
698 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
699
7005.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
701 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
702 If you want the old behaviour, try:
703 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
704 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
705 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
706 percentage by 100-percentage.
707 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
708 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
709 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
710 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
711 windows.
712 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
713 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
714 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
715 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
716 - replaced INSTALL file.
717
7185.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
719 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
720 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
721 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
722 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
723 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
724 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
725 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
726 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
727
7285.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
729 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
730 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
731 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
732 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
733 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
734 Affects display in iso14755 box.
735 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
736 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
737 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
738 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
739 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
740 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
741 cutting pieces off of characters.
742 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
743 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
744 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
745 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
746 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
747 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
748 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
749
7505.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
751 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
752 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
753 meaning of the given key.
754 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
755 (patch by Martin Edlman).
756
7575.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
758 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
759 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
760 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
761 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
762 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
763 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
764 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
765 to disable it.
766
7675.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
768 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
769 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
770 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
771 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
772 with modifiers.
15 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties. 773 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
16 - properly update WM_LOCALE. 774 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
17 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol. 775 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
18 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view 776 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
19 and clear the scrollback buffer. 777 and clear the scrollback buffer.
