136.1
14 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
15 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
16 while the user still drags.
17 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
18 not drawn correctly.
19 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
20 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
21
226.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
23 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
24 - enable slow link support by default.
25 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
26 (also a bug in original rxvt).
27 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
28 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
29 partial patch).
30 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
31 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
32 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
33 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
34 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
35 - implement -hold option.
36 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
37 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
38 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
39 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
40 - slight overall speed improvements.
41 - considerably improved code clarity.
42 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
43 buffer.
44
455.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
46 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
47 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
48 (matters only for rxvtd).
49 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
50 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
51 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
52
535.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
54 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
55 If you want the old behaviour, try:
56 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
57 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
58 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
59 percentage by 100-percentage.
60 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
61 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
62 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
63 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
64 windows.
65 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
66 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
67 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
68 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
69 - replaced INSTALL file.

19 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes). 76 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
77 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
78 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
79 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
