145.6
15 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
16 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
17 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
18 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
19 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
20 Affects display in iso14755 box.
21 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
22 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
23 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
24 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
25 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
26 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
27 cutting pieces off of characters.
28 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
29 fonts that will likely overshoot or underhsoot lines.
30 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
31 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
32 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
33 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
34 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
35
365.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
37 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
38 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
39 meaning of the given key.
40 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
41 (patch by Martin Edlman).
42
435.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
44 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
45 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
46 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
47 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
48 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
49 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
50 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
51 to disble it.
52
535.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
54 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
55 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
56 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
57 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
58 with modifiers.
59 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
60 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
61 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
62 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
63 and clear the scrollback buffer.
64
655.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
66 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
67 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
68 a command.
69 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
70 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
71 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
72 in Perl/Gtk2.
73 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
74 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
75 (reported by Mikael Magnusson).
76 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
77 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
78 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
79 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
80 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
81 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
82 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
83 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
84 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
85 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
86 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
87 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
88 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
89 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed
90 rxvt-unicode).
91 - get rid of the intpro files.
92
935.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005
94 - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one
95 for empty keymaps which could result in crashes
96 (Kuang-che Wu).
97 - new option: -embed (frills). somebody could write a simple
98 tk script to make a tab'able terminal now...
99 - only warn on X errors and _try_ to continue (frills).
100 - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow.
101 - after deciding that LSM is dead, remove all traces of it,
102 along with other, similar, cleanups.
103 - _try_ to react sensibly to some non-monotonic time changes.
104 - don't crash in urxvtc when getcwd fails (reported by Paco-Paco).
105 - tweak font searching algorithm a bit to be faster and more
106 compatible with older rxvt-unicode versions when multiple fonts
107 match (reported by Paco-Paco).
108 - urxvtd tries to stay in "/" whenever possible.
109
1105.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005
111 - document a race-free hack to start urxvtd.
112 - document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt.
113 - bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with
114 Xt, and document it in rxvt(1).
115 - correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault,
116 and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for
117 his patience and time in tracking this down).
118 - bring own resource parsing more in line with X resource parsing,
119 most notably, don't remove double quotes.
120 - compile fix for freebsd (no ut_id) (Thierry Thomas).
121 - clean up utmp and pty on X I/O errors and signals (idea
122 by Joël Riou).
123 - "un"document -xrm, it never really worked, was only
124 available with --enable-xgetdefault, is not necessary
125 and is surprisingly hard to implement.
126 - shaved off some code segment size.
127 - various code cleanups.
128 - more keysym-mapping fixes.
129
1304.9 Thu Feb 3 09:52:03 CET 2005
131 - nuke out utmp entries completely. Should be fixed in
132 original rxvt, too. (reported by James Michael Fultz).
133 - resizes wil now correctly refresh the displayed text when
134 -pixmap is active.
135 - new option/resource imFont.
136 - document --tripleclickwords/-tcw.
137 - select logical instead of physical lines when doing a triple-click.
138 - reordered help listing to group similar options together.
139 - handle SIGINT the same way as SIGTERM (reported by Joël Riou).
140 - fix a bug introduced while applying the keyboard patch
141 (WU Fengguang).
142 - document all window-op sequences (rxvt.7.) and more keysym
143 examples (rxvt.1).
144 - removed src/test completely.
145 - renamed keysym 'proto:'-prefix to 'command:'.
146
1474.8 Tue Jan 18 02:23:57 CET 2005
148 - added a patch by WU Fengguang that makes the keyboard
149 highly configurable (e.g. locale changes, custom escape
150 sequences, and more). See keysym resource in rxvt(1).
151 - remove default key sequence for unknown keys again, as this
152 can be achieved by customizing the keyboard now.
153 - fix some freeing problems when destroying the rxvt_display,
154 resulting in segfaults.
155 - don't crash when the saved cursor position doesn't fit on the
156 screen (wrong assert in original rxvt, reported by ikaro).
157 - fix signed/unsigned bugs on wc<->mb conversions.
158 - reset slipwheel scrolling speed when reaching the top or bottom
159 (Mikael Magnusson).
160 - for core fonts, use ascent + descent when a font is loaded,
161 and PIXEL_SIZE when not. when loading a font, iterate until a
162 font has been found that _really_ fits the height (reported and
163 tested by Olivier Wittenberg).
164 - set IUTF8 input flag, when defined (linux-2.6.5+).
165 - only define _XOPEN_SOURCE on solaris.
166 - autogenerate src/* dependency list.
167 - fixed linespace option, which ought to work now (and is dependent
168 on frills, not on it's own configure option).
169 - include pty.h, if available (cygwin).
170 - removed W11 directory from dist, it wasn't used anyway.
171 - initialize the locale much earlier.
172 - fixed two tiny per-instance memory leaks.
173
1744.7 Wed Dec 29 20:54:24 CET 2004
175 - fix a bug in the event logic that could cause the temrinal to be
176 black on initial startup.
177 - do NOT call XCloseIM, ever. This causes way to many crashes due to
178 races in the protocol and within Xlib.
179 - map iso-left-tab to the same sequence as shift-tab.
180 - generate a unique escape sequence for many unknown keys, such as
181 additional multimedia keys.
182 - mask out high (non-unicode) bits on wide characters, to cope with
183 implementations that store tag info in the high bits.
