136.1 159.0
16 - implemented perl:selection:remote-pastebin command in perl/selection
17 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
18 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0.
19 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
20 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
21 at the wrong time.
22 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
23 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
24 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
25 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
26 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
27 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
28 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
29 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
30 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
31 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
32 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
33 anymore.
34 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
35 to set the window title.
36 - nuked QNX support.
37
387.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
39 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
40 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
41 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
42 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
43 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
44 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
45 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
46 and much much more.
47 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
48 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
49 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
50 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
51 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
52 setuid/setgid.
53 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
54 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
55 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
56 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
57 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
58 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
59 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
60 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
61 compatible, and not really small either.
62 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
63 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
64 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
65 to crashes.
66 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
67 colours.
68 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
69 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.

716.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
72 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
73 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
74 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
75 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
76 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
77 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
78 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
79 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
80 by Mikachu).
81 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
82 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
83 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
84 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
85 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
86 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
87 - fix directory permissions on install.
88 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
89 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
90 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
91 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
92 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
93
946.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
95 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
96 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
97 Chuck Blake.
98 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
99 obscure the mouse cursor position.
100 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
101 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
102 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
103 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
104 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
105 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
106 transfer efficiency.
107 - further minor cleanups.

1096.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
14 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.). 110 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).

16 while the user still drags. 112 while the user still drags.
17 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were 113 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
18 not drawn correctly. 114 not drawn correctly.
115 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
116 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
117 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
118 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
119 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
120 stripping whitespace.
121 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
122 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
