Revision 1.431 by root, Wed Nov 30 14:23:28 2005 UTC

1Lines marked with "xterm:" indicate either xterm features ported to rxvt 1TOD: closing all shells on rxvtd might leave the last shell as zombie?
2or changed rxvt behaviour to make it more compatible to xterm (usually 2TODO: harmonize --dsiable-options into position-dependent options.
3xfree86's xterm). 3TODO: after requesting the selection and getting a timeout, no further requests will be sent.
4 4TODO: do font request caching, might help rxvtd on some machines
5TODO: settable ressource for input method fonts 5TODO: safer command: keymap processing.
6TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts
6TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc. 7TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
7TODO: shift-tab etc. xterm keycodes 8TODO: http://www120.pair.com/mccarthy/nextstep/intro.htmld/Workspace.html is the correct nextstep look.
8WISH: extend keysym resource mechanism to include modifiers. 9WISH: /usr/share/doc/libdisplaymigration0-dev/spec.txt
10WISH: keymap modification via esc-sequences.
9WISH; line-rewrapping on resize 11WISH: line-rewrapping on resize
12WISH: searchable backlog
13WISH: meta-tagging of data by regex/master process (my dream project)
14WISH: OnTheSpot editing, or maybe switch to miiiiiiif
15WISH: tabbed windows (hey, just use screen...)
10WISH: just for fun, do shade and tint with XRender. 16WISH: just for fun, do shade and tint with XRender.
11WISH: hotkey font resizing 17
12WISH: searchable backlog 18 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impatc, found by darix.
13WISH: meta-tagging of data by regex (my dream project) 19
14WISH: triple-click == select full output line 205.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
15WISH: double-click: more intelligent (urls etc.) 21 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
16WISH: OnTheSpot editing. 22 If you want the old behaviour, try:
17WISH: tabbed windows (hey, just use screen...) 23 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
24 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
25 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
26 percentage by 100-percentage.
27 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
28 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
29 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
30 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
31 windows.
32 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
33 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
34 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
35 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
36 - replaced INSTALL file.
37
385.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
39 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
40 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
41 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
42 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
43 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
44 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
45 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
46 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in oriignal rxvt).
47
485.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
49 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
50 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
51 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
52 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
53 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
54 Affects display in iso14755 box.
55 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
56 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
57 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
58 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
59 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
60 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
61 cutting pieces off of characters.
62 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
63 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
64 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
65 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
66 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
67 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
68 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
69
705.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
71 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
72 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
73 meaning of the given key.
74 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
75 (patch by Martin Edlman).
76
775.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
78 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
79 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
80 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
81 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
82 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
83 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
84 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
85 to disble it.
86
875.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
88 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
89 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
90 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
91 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
92 with modifiers.
93 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
94 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
95 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
96 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
97 and clear the scrollback buffer.
98
995.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
100 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
101 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
102 a command.
103 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
104 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
105 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
106 in Perl/Gtk2.
107 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
108 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
109 (reported by Mikael Magnusson).
110 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
111 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
112 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
113 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
114 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
115 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
116 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
117 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
118 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
119 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
120 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
121 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
122 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
123 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed
124 rxvt-unicode).
125 - get rid of the intpro files.
126
1275.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005
128 - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one
129 for empty keymaps which could result in crashes
130 (Kuang-che Wu).
131 - new option: -embed (frills). somebody could write a simple
132 tk script to make a tab'able terminal now...
133 - only warn on X errors and _try_ to continue (frills).
134 - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow.
135 - after deciding that LSM is dead, remove all traces of it,
136 along with other, similar, cleanups.
137 - _try_ to react sensibly to some non-monotonic time changes.
138 - don't crash in urxvtc when getcwd fails (reported by Paco-Paco).
139 - tweak font searching algorithm a bit to be faster and more
140 compatible with older rxvt-unicode versions when multiple fonts
141 match (reported by Paco-Paco).
142 - urxvtd tries to stay in "/" whenever possible.
143
1445.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005
145 - document a race-free hack to start urxvtd.
146 - document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt.
147 - bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with
148 Xt, and document it in rxvt(1).
149 - correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault,
150 and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for
151 his patience and time in tracking this down).
152 - bring own resource parsing more in line with X resource parsing,
153 most notably, don't remove double quotes.
154 - compile fix for freebsd (no ut_id) (Thierry Thomas).
155 - clean up utmp and pty on X I/O errors and signals (idea
156 by Joël Riou).
157 - "un"document -xrm, it never really worked, was only
158 available with --enable-xgetdefault, is not necessary
159 and is surprisingly hard to implement.
160 - shaved off some code segment size.
161 - various code cleanups.
162 - more keysym-mapping fixes.
163
1644.9 Thu Feb 3 09:52:03 CET 2005
165 - nuke out utmp entries completely. Should be fixed in
166 original rxvt, too. (reported by James Michael Fultz).
167 - resizes wil now correctly refresh the displayed text when
168 -pixmap is active.
169 - new option/resource imFont.
170 - document --tripleclickwords/-tcw.
171 - select logical instead of physical lines when doing a triple-click.
172 - reordered help listing to group similar options together.
173 - handle SIGINT the same way as SIGTERM (reported by Joël Riou).
174 - fix a bug introduced while applying the keyboard patch
175 (WU Fengguang).
176 - document all window-op sequences (rxvt.7.) and more keysym
177 examples (rxvt.1).
178 - removed src/test completely.
179 - renamed keysym 'proto:'-prefix to 'command:'.
180
1814.8 Tue Jan 18 02:23:57 CET 2005
182 - added a patch by WU Fengguang that makes the keyboard
183 highly configurable (e.g. locale changes, custom escape
184 sequences, and more). See keysym resource in rxvt(1).
185 - remove default key sequence for unknown keys again, as this
186 can be achieved by customizing the keyboard now.
187 - fix some freeing problems when destroying the rxvt_display,
188 resulting in segfaults.
189 - don't crash when the saved cursor position doesn't fit on the
190 screen (wrong assert in original rxvt, reported by ikaro).
191 - fix signed/unsigned bugs on wc<->mb conversions.
192 - reset slipwheel scrolling speed when reaching the top or bottom
193 (Mikael Magnusson).
194 - for core fonts, use ascent + descent when a font is loaded,
195 and PIXEL_SIZE when not. when loading a font, iterate until a
196 font has been found that _really_ fits the height (reported and
197 tested by Olivier Wittenberg).
198 - set IUTF8 input flag, when defined (linux-2.6.5+).
199 - only define _XOPEN_SOURCE on solaris.
200 - autogenerate src/* dependency list.
201 - fixed linespace option, which ought to work now (and is dependent
202 on frills, not on it's own configure option).
203 - include pty.h, if available (cygwin).
204 - removed W11 directory from dist, it wasn't used anyway.
205 - initialize the locale much earlier.
206 - fixed two tiny per-instance memory leaks.
