+	- fixed bug in plain scrollbar causing X errors in XCreateGC.
+        - implemented sharing of X connections. will be used to speed
+          up many x operations considerably. Also saves some memory.
+        - implemented caching of input methods. This immensely shortens
+          startup time for new terms in rxvtd. At least XFree86 4.3 is
+          rather broken with respect to input methods, though, so expect
+          crashes when you kill your input method (xterm et al. also crash).
+        - fix bugs in X flushing, causing an empty screen after startup.
+        - fix various memleaks in rxvtd.
+        - fix a bug that kept escape codes to be generated for some
+          keysyms that also have string translations, when not --enable-xim.
+          reported by joel reed.
+        - re-enabled esc-seq. for font-switching (\033 ] 50 ; <fontset> \007).
+        - re-enabled menubar (experimental!).
+        - fix bug in locale-handling that kept the correct locale from
+          being selected.
+        - implemented esc-seq. to switch locales (\033 ] 9 ; <locale> \007).
+        - removed greek support.
+        - allow NUL bytes (ctrl-@) to be entered even with XIM enabled.
+        - correct cursor width if !focus.
+        - many other minor bugfixes.

 	- almost total conversion to C++. Except for introducing
           new bugs, this should not change much.
         - fix and re-enable background pixmap and inherit pixmap support.
         - re-enabled multiple scrollbar support.
-        - blinking and selections wrk slightly better now.
+        - added plain scrollbar style and restored xterm scrollbar.
+        - blinking and selections work slightly better now.
+        - fix an error condition when rxvt receives more than one screenful
+          of output. should occur with original rxvt, too, but very rarely.
+          (I guess the code contains more surprises of this sort...)
