26 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
27 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
28 percentage by 100-percentage.
29 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
30 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
31 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
32 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
33 windows.
34 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
35 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
36 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
37 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
38
395.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
40 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
41 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
42 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
43 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
44 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
45 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
46 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
47 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in oriignal rxvt).
48
495.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
50 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
51 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
52 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
53 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
54 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
55 Affects display in iso14755 box.
56 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
57 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
58 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
59 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
60 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
61 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
62 cutting pieces off of characters.
63 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
64 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
65 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
66 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
67 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
68 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
69 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
70
715.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
72 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
73 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
74 meaning of the given key.
75 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
76 (patch by Martin Edlman).
77
785.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
79 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
80 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
81 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
82 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
83 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
84 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
85 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
86 to disble it.
87
885.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
89 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
90 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
91 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
92 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
93 with modifiers.
94 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
95 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
96 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
97 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
98 and clear the scrollback buffer.
99
1005.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
101 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
102 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
103 a command.
104 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
105 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
106 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
107 in Perl/Gtk2.
108 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
109 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
110 (reported by Mikael Magnusson).
111 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
112 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
113 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
114 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
115 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
116 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
117 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
118 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
119 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
120 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
121 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
122 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
123 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
124 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed
125 rxvt-unicode).
126 - get rid of the intpro files.
127
1285.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005
129 - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one
130 for empty keymaps which could result in crashes
131 (Kuang-che Wu).
132 - new option: -embed (frills). somebody could write a simple
133 tk script to make a tab'able terminal now...
134 - only warn on X errors and _try_ to continue (frills).
135 - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow.
136 - after deciding that LSM is dead, remove all traces of it,
137 along with other, similar, cleanups.
138 - _try_ to react sensibly to some non-monotonic time changes.
139 - don't crash in urxvtc when getcwd fails (reported by Paco-Paco).
140 - tweak font searching algorithm a bit to be faster and more
141 compatible with older rxvt-unicode versions when multiple fonts
142 match (reported by Paco-Paco).
143 - urxvtd tries to stay in "/" whenever possible.
144
1455.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005
146 - document a race-free hack to start urxvtd.
147 - document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt.
148 - bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with
149 Xt, and document it in rxvt(1).
150 - correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault,
151 and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for
152 his patience and time in tracking this down).
153 - bring own resource parsing more in line with X resource parsing,
154 most notably, don't remove double quotes.
155 - compile fix for freebsd (no ut_id) (Thierry Thomas).
156 - clean up utmp and pty on X I/O errors and signals (idea
157 by Joël Riou).
158 - "un"document -xrm, it never really worked, was only
159 available with --enable-xgetdefault, is not necessary
160 and is surprisingly hard to implement.
161 - shaved off some code segment size.
162 - various code cleanups.
163 - more keysym-mapping fixes.
164
1654.9 Thu Feb 3 09:52:03 CET 2005
166 - nuke out utmp entries completely. Should be fixed in
167 original rxvt, too. (reported by James Michael Fultz).
168 - resizes wil now correctly refresh the displayed text when
169 -pixmap is active.
170 - new option/resource imFont.
171 - document --tripleclickwords/-tcw.
172 - select logical instead of physical lines when doing a triple-click.
173 - reordered help listing to group similar options together.
174 - handle SIGINT the same way as SIGTERM (reported by Joël Riou).
175 - fix a bug introduced while applying the keyboard patch
176 (WU Fengguang).
177 - document all window-op sequences (rxvt.7.) and more keysym
178 examples (rxvt.1).
179 - removed src/test completely.
180 - renamed keysym 'proto:'-prefix to 'command:'.
181
1824.8 Tue Jan 18 02:23:57 CET 2005
183 - added a patch by WU Fengguang that makes the keyboard
184 highly configurable (e.g. locale changes, custom escape
185 sequences, and more). See keysym resource in rxvt(1).
186 - remove default key sequence for unknown keys again, as this
187 can be achieved by customizing the keyboard now.
188 - fix some freeing problems when destroying the rxvt_display,
189 resulting in segfaults.
190 - don't crash when the saved cursor position doesn't fit on the
191 screen (wrong assert in original rxvt, reported by ikaro).
192 - fix signed/unsigned bugs on wc<->mb conversions.
193 - reset slipwheel scrolling speed when reaching the top or bottom
194 (Mikael Magnusson).
195 - for core fonts, use ascent + descent when a font is loaded,
196 and PIXEL_SIZE when not. when loading a font, iterate until a
197 font has been found that _really_ fits the height (reported and
198 tested by Olivier Wittenberg).
199 - set IUTF8 input flag, when defined (linux-2.6.5+).
200 - only define _XOPEN_SOURCE on solaris.
201 - autogenerate src/* dependency list.
202 - fixed linespace option, which ought to work now (and is dependent
203 on frills, not on it's own configure option).
204 - include pty.h, if available (cygwin).
205 - removed W11 directory from dist, it wasn't used anyway.
206 - initialize the locale much earlier.
207 - fixed two tiny per-instance memory leaks.
208
2094.7 Wed Dec 29 20:54:24 CET 2004
210 - fix a bug in the event logic that could cause the temrinal to be
211 black on initial startup.
212 - do NOT call XCloseIM, ever. This causes way to many crashes due to
213 races in the protocol and within Xlib.
214 - map iso-left-tab to the same sequence as shift-tab.
215 - generate a unique escape sequence for many unknown keys, such as
216 additional multimedia keys.
217 - mask out high (non-unicode) bits on wide characters, to cope with
218 implementations that store tag info in the high bits.
219

20 turnarounds would be much faster, but impossible to implement(?). 225 turnarounds would be much faster, but impossible to implement(?).
226 - implement underlineColor resource when ENABLE_FRILLS.
227 - iom left it's signal pipe handle open in the child
228 process. Fortunately not security-relevant as the pipe data gets
229 ignored.
