2TODO: do font request caching, might help rxvtd on some machines 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_keyboard_command with something more scalable.
6TODO: slipwheeling needs a keyboard grab to get key release events.
7TODO: overlays collide with the way the out-of-focus cursor is being drawn
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

155.6 22TODO: exg-- patch
23TODO: selection_beg/end should set screen, or so
24 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
25 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
26 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
27 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).

299.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
30 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
31 - updates libev to 3.48.
32 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
33 when a window was closed.
34 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
35 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
36 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
37 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
38 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
39 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
40 makes copy&paste work.
41 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
42 no longer apply.
43 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
44 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
45 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
46 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
47 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
48 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
49 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
50 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
51 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
52 the only known workaround.
53 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
54 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
55 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
56 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that errornously resize
57 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
58 disabling size hints.
59 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
60 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
61 as mouse reporting.
62 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
63 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
64 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
65 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
66 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
67 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
68 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
69 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
70 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
71 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
72 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
73 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
74
759.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
76 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
77 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
78 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
79 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
80 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend
81 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
82 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
83 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
84 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
85 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
86 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
87 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
88 help working window managers as well.
89 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
90 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
91 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
92 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
93 from the toplevel window to the children.
94 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
95 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
96 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
97 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
98
999.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
100 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
101 - fix build with !xft.
102 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
103
1049.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
105 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
106 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
107 received" problem, again :)
108 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
109
1109.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
111 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
112 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
113 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
114 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
115 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
116 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
117 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
118 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
119 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
120 channels or background images are used.
121 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
122 till the first event arrives. or so.
123 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
124 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
125 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
126 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
127 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
128 resets the terminal.
129 - scrollbar code cleanups.
130 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
131 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
132 - updated to libev 3.0.
133
1348.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
135 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
136 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
137 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
138 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
139 would not clear it visually in another.
140 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
141 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
142 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
143 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
144 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
145 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
146
1478.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
148 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
149 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
150 effects.
151 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
152 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
153 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
154 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
155 text was visible.
156 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
157 some minor improvements.
158 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
159 display and not once per terminal window.
160 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
161
1628.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
163 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
164 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
165 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
166
1678.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
168 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
169 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
170 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
171 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
172 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
173 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
174 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
175
1768.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
177 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
178
1798.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
180 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
181 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
182 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
183 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
184 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
185 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
186 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
187 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
188 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
189 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
190 - parallel builds should work once more.
191
1928.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
193 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
194 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
195 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
196 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
197 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
198 missing DISPLAY.
199 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
200 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
201 - updated io_manager.
202
2038.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
204 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
205 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
206 /usr/X11R6/lib.
207 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
208 patch by Sasha Vasko.
209 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
210 (patch by Philip Paeps).
211 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
212 (patch by Mikachu).
213 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
214 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
215 digit (exg).
216 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
217 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
218 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
219 extension (tpope).
220 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
221 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
222 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
223 problems.
224
2258.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
226 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
227 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
228 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
229 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
230 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
231 (found by Aiviru).
232 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
233 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
234 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
235 case to work around for :/
236 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
237 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
238 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
239 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
240 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
241 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
242 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
243 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
244 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
245 Paskevich).
246 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
247 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
248 - update libptytty.
249 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
250 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
251 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
252 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
253 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
254 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
255 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
256 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
257 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
258
2598.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
260 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
261 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
262 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
263 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
264 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
265 Reported by Takano Akio.
266 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
267 reported by exg.
268 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
269 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
270 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
271 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
272
2738.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
274 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
275 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
276 circumstances (reported by exg).
277 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
278 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
279 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
280 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
281 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
282 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
283 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
284 - update to libptytty-1.0.
285 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
286 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
287 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
288 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
289 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
290 bug #143985).
291 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
292 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
293 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
294 - manpage fix by exg.
295
2967.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
297 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
298 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
299 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
300 it does! :->
301 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
302 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
303
3047.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
305 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
306 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
307 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
308 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
309 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
310 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
311 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
312 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
313 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
314 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
315 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
316 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
317 uppercase character.
318 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
319 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
320 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
321 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
322 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
323 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
324 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
325 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
326 generic osc_seq.
327 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
328 were invoked recursively.
329 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
330 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
331 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
332 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
333 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
334 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
335 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
336 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
337 by omatunto_.
338 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
339 follow C++ closely enough.
340 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
341 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
342 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
343 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
344
3457.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
346 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
347 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
348 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
349 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
350 click, and eats the click.
351 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
352 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
353 refresh bugs please.
354 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
355 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
356 improve size hint setting.
357 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
358 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
359 to correctly position their preedit window.
360 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
361 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
362 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
363 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
364 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
365 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
366 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
367 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
368 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
369 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
370 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
371 (reported by Paco-Paco).
372 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
373 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
374 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
375
3767.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
377 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
378 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
379 resource value.
380 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
381 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
382 relevant tab window.
383 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
384 (initial patch by hednod).
385 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
386 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
387 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
388 the benefit of automove-background.
389 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
390 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
391 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
392 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
393 __linux__.
394 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
395 the colour components.
396 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
397 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
398 - more colour rtt optimisations.
399 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
400 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
401 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
402 - minor libptytty update.
403
4047.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
405 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
406 detection:
407 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
408 - overlap detection was improved.
409 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
410 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
411 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
412 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
413 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
414 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
415 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
416 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
417 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
418 broken.
419 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
420 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
421 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
422 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
423 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
424 (patch by Paco-Paco).
425 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
426 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
427 an "[alpha]" prefix.
428 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
429 transparent. Long Live Xft!
430 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
431 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
432 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
433 on a pseudocolor screen.
434 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
435 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
436 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
437 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
438 - small configure updates.
439 - further RTT optimisations.
440 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
441 the debian package.
442 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
443 but much newer than the old one.
444
4457.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
446 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
447 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
448 - small configure updates for libptytty.
449 - fixed version options: line output.
450 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
451
4527.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
453 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
454 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
455 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
456 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
457 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
458 selection extension.
459 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
460 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
461 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
462 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
463 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
464 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
465 needs the careful rendering mode.
466 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
467 too wide and needs careful mode.
468 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
469 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
470 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
471 atoms only once per display.
472 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
473 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
474 xterm.
475
4767.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
477 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
478 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
479 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
480 ctrl-shift-672c).
481 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
482 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
483 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
484 the primary screen.
485 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
486 could lead to an assertion failure.
487 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
488 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
489 via mouse clicks.
490 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
491 with shift - mouse button 2.
492 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
493 in non-synthetic events.
494 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
495 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
496 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
497 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
498 whole urxvt[d] process.
499 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
500 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
501 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
502 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
503
5047.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
505 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
506 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
507 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
508 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
509 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
510 special privileges.
511 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
512 itself.
513 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
514 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
515 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
516 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
517 similar stuff.
518 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
519 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
520 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
521 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
522 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
523 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
524 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
525 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
526 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
527 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
528 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
529 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
530 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
531 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
532 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
533 to set the window title.
534 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
535 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
536 at the wrong time.
537 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
538 anymore.
539 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
540 - nuked QNX support.
541 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
542 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
543 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
544 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
545
5467.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
547 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
548 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
549 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
550 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
551 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
552 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
553 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
554 and much much more.
555 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
556 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
557 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
558 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
559 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
560 setuid/setgid.
561 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
562 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
563 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
564 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
565 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
566 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
567 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
568 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
569 compatible, and not really small either.
570 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
571 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
572 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
573 to crashes.
574 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
575 colours.
576 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
577 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
578
5796.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
580 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
581 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
582 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
583 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
584 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
585 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
586 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
587 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
588 by Mikachu).
589 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
590 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
591 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
592 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
593 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
594 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
595 - fix directory permissions on install.
596 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
597 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
598 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
599 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
600 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
601
6026.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
603 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
604 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
605 Chuck Blake.
606 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
607 obscure the mouse cursor position.
608 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
609 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
610 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
611 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
612 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
613 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
614 transfer efficiency.
615 - further minor cleanups.
616
6176.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
618 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
619 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
620 while the user still drags.
621 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
622 not drawn correctly.
623 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
624 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
625 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
626 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
627 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
628 stripping whitespace.
629 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
630 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
631
6326.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
633 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
634 - enable slow link support by default.
635 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
636 (also a bug in original rxvt).
637 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
638 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
639 partial patch).
640 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
641 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
642 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
643 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
644 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
645 - implement -hold option.
646 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
647 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
648 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
649 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
650 - slight overall speed improvements.
651 - considerably improved code clarity.
652 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
653 buffer.
654
6555.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
656 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
657 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
658 (matters only for rxvtd).
659 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
660 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
661 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
662
6635.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
664 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
665 If you want the old behaviour, try:
666 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
667 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
668 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
669 percentage by 100-percentage.
670 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
671 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
672 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
673 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
674 windows.
675 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
676 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
677 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
678 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
679 - replaced INSTALL file.
680
6815.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
682 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
683 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
684 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
685 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
686 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
687 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
688 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
689 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
