17 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty (not GNU/Linux, probably
18 most BSDs), privileges weren't dropped before opening the pty,
19 resulting in wrong permissions on the pseudo terminal.
20 Reported and fixed by Ryan Beasley.
21 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
22 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
23 Chuck Blake.
24 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
25 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
26 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
27
286.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
29 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
30 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
31 while the user still drags.
32 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
33 not drawn correctly.
34 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
35 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
36 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
37 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
38 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
39 stripping whitespace.
40 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
41 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
42
436.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
44 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
45 - enable slow link support by default.
46 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
47 (also a bug in original rxvt).
48 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
49 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
50 partial patch).
51 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
52 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
53 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
54 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
55 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
56 - implement -hold option.
57 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
58 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
59 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
60 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
61 - slight overall speed improvements.
62 - considerably improved code clarity.
63 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
64 buffer.
65
665.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
67 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
68 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
69 (matters only for rxvtd).
70 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
71 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
72 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
73
745.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
75 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
76 If you want the old behaviour, try:
77 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
78 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
79 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
80 percentage by 100-percentage.
81 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
82 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
83 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
84 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
85 windows.
86 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
87 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
88 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
89 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
90 - replaced INSTALL file.
91
925.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
93 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
94 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
95 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
96 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
97 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
98 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
99 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
100 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
101
1025.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
103 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
104 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
105 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
106 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
107 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
108 Affects display in iso14755 box.
109 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
110 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
111 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
112 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
113 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
114 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
115 cutting pieces off of characters.
116 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
117 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
118 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
119 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
120 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
121 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
122 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
