18 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
19 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
20 percentage by 100-percentage.
21 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
22 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
23 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
24 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
25 windows.
26
275.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
28 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
29 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
30 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
31 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
32 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
33 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
34 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
35 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in oriignal rxvt).
36
375.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
38 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
39 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
40 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
41 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
42 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
43 Affects display in iso14755 box.
44 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
45 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
46 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
47 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
48 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
49 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
50 cutting pieces off of characters.
51 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
52 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
53 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
54 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
55 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
56 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
57 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
58
595.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
60 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
61 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
62 meaning of the given key.
63 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
64 (patch by Martin Edlman).
65
665.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
67 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
68 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
69 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
70 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
71 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
72 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
73 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
74 to disble it.
75
765.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
77 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
78 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
79 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
80 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
81 with modifiers.
82 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
83 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
84 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
85 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
86 and clear the scrollback buffer.
87
885.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
89 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
90 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
91 a command.
92 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
93 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
94 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
95 in Perl/Gtk2.
96 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
97 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
98 (reported by Mikael Magnusson).
99 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
100 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
101 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
102 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
103 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
104 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
105 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
106 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
107 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
108 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
109 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
110 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
111 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
112 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed
113 rxvt-unicode).
114 - get rid of the intpro files.
115
1165.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005
117 - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one
118 for empty keymaps which could result in crashes
119 (Kuang-che Wu).
120 - new option: -embed (frills). somebody could write a simple
121 tk script to make a tab'able terminal now...
122 - only warn on X errors and _try_ to continue (frills).
123 - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow.
124 - after deciding that LSM is dead, remove all traces of it,
125 along with other, similar, cleanups.
126 - _try_ to react sensibly to some non-monotonic time changes.
127 - don't crash in urxvtc when getcwd fails (reported by Paco-Paco).
128 - tweak font searching algorithm a bit to be faster and more
129 compatible with older rxvt-unicode versions when multiple fonts
130 match (reported by Paco-Paco).
131 - urxvtd tries to stay in "/" whenever possible.
132
1335.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005
134 - document a race-free hack to start urxvtd.
135 - document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt.
136 - bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with
137 Xt, and document it in rxvt(1).
138 - correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault,
139 and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for
140 his patience and time in tracking this down).
141 - bring own resource parsing more in line with X resource parsing,
142 most notably, don't remove double quotes.
143 - compile fix for freebsd (no ut_id) (Thierry Thomas).
144 - clean up utmp and pty on X I/O errors and signals (idea
145 by Joël Riou).
146 - "un"document -xrm, it never really worked, was only
147 available with --enable-xgetdefault, is not necessary
148 and is surprisingly hard to implement.
149 - shaved off some code segment size.
150 - various code cleanups.
151 - more keysym-mapping fixes.
152
1534.9 Thu Feb 3 09:52:03 CET 2005
154 - nuke out utmp entries completely. Should be fixed in
155 original rxvt, too. (reported by James Michael Fultz).
156 - resizes wil now correctly refresh the displayed text when
157 -pixmap is active.
158 - new option/resource imFont.
159 - document --tripleclickwords/-tcw.
160 - select logical instead of physical lines when doing a triple-click.
161 - reordered help listing to group similar options together.
162 - handle SIGINT the same way as SIGTERM (reported by Joël Riou).
163 - fix a bug introduced while applying the keyboard patch
164 (WU Fengguang).
165 - document all window-op sequences (rxvt.7.) and more keysym
166 examples (rxvt.1).
167 - removed src/test completely.
168 - renamed keysym 'proto:'-prefix to 'command:'.
