+1.9
+	- 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.
+        - fixed --enable-xgetdefault, reported by eduard bloch.
+        - many other minor bugfixes.

+1.8  Mon Feb  2 20:09:18 CET 2004
+	- 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.
+        - 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...)
+
+1.7  Fri Jan 30 16:50:11 CET 2004
+	- further cleanups.
+        - never do last-minute-changes: restore ability to have
+          color + bold ass high-intensity, and let the selection
+          use reverse video, not _blink_.
+        - remove OPTION_HC, at least temporarily. If you want it back,
+          please drop me a note.
+
 1.6  Fri Jan 30 00:34:01 CET 2004
 	- cleanups, minor bugfixes.
         - blinking text.
         - normal text color + bold gets white text instead of
           normal text when colorBD is not set.
-        - support double-byte characters (by blocking).
+        (- support double-byte characters (by blocking).)
+          was not implemented
 
 1.5  Thu Jan 29 00:43:48 CET 2004
 	- share io manager between rxvt-unicode and vpe
