136.0
14 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
15 - enable slow link support by default.
16 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
17 (also a bug in original rxvt).
18 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
19 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
20# - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
21 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
22 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
23 - slight overall speed improvements.
24 - considerably improved code clarity.
25 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
26 buffer.
27
285.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
29 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
30 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
31 (matters only for rxvtd).
32 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
33 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
34 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).

365.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
37 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
38 If you want the old behaviour, try:
39 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
40 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
41 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
42 percentage by 100-percentage.
43 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
44 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
45 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
46 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
47 windows.
48 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
49 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
50 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
51 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
52 - replaced INSTALL file.
