1TODO: harmonize --disable-options into position-dependent options. 1rxvt-unicode changelog <= google-friendly title
2TODO: after requesting the selection and getting a timeout, no further requests will be sent. 2
3TODO: safer command: keymap processing. 3TODO: xcopyarea pass broken, fix and improve
4TODO: event mechanism that replaces on_user_command with something more scalable.
5TODO: slipwheeling needs a keyboard grab to get key release events.
6TODO: overlays collide with the way the out-of-focus cursor is being drawn
4TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts 7TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts, pango!
5TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc. 8TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
6TODO: http://www120.pair.com/mccarthy/nextstep/intro.htmld/Workspace.html is the correct nextstep look. 9TODO: slow drag selection on remote display - other things seem fast (rxvt illness, motion hints?)
7WISH: keymap modification via esc-sequences. 10TODO: better resource handling for tabbar in -pe tabbed.
8WISH: searchable backlog 11WISH: investigate -pe tabbed -g 80x25 being 23 not 24 or 25 lines
9WISH: meta-tagging of data by regex/master process (my dream project) 12 => when setting the constraints, the wm might (correctly)
10WISH: OnTheSpot editing, or maybe switch to miiiiiiif 13 resize the outer window, which might result in a smaller window overall.
11WISH: just for fun, do shade and tint with XRender. 14 or something like that. guys, send me a patch.
15WISH: coloured pastebin
16WISH: load system-wide config file even if we don't have one
17WISH: look into XAddConnectionWatch, does anybody need that?
18DUMB: support tex fonts
19TODO: decrqm http://ue.tst.eu/71d7dbd1fcfeaa7d2a4b96eb957d570c.txt
20TODO: perl-shell-window? perl-unix-socket?
21TODO: command line editing when icanon?
12 22
136.1 23TODO: split ROW into a ROW_fast (0..total*2-1) and ROW macros?
24 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
25 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
26 to disable both scaling and tiling.
27 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
28 been removed in favour of simple composable operations and
29 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
30 settings. Old operations are still parsed for backward
31 compatibility (Emanuele Giaquinta).
32 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
33 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
34 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
35 the cell size.
36 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
37 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
38 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
39 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
40 - Fix compilation on systems with bsd style utmp and no utmpx,
41 such as openbsd.
42 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
43
449.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
45 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
46 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
47 support the UTF8_STRING target.
48 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
49 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
50 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
51 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
52 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
53 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
54 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
55 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
56 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
57 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
58
599.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
60 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
61 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
62 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
63 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
64 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
65 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
66 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
67 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
68 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
69 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
70 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
71 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
72 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
73 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
74 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
75 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
76 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
77 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
78 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
79 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
80 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
81 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
82 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
83 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
84 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
85 with gcc.
86 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
87 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
88 - document 'thickness' resource.
89 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
90 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
91 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
92 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
93 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
94 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
95 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
96 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
97 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
98 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
99 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
100
1019.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
102 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
103 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
104 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
105 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
106 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
107 failures with gcc 4.5.
108 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
109 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
110 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
111 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
112 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
113 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
114 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
115 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
116 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
117 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
118 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
119 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
120 and has fewer limitations.
121 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
122 startup for the upper left corner.
123 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
124 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
125 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
126 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
127 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
128 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
129 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
130 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
131 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
132 - fix build on XFree86.
133 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
134 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
135 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
136 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
137
1389.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
139 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
140 - the bestest release ever.
141 - it was verified that urxvt handles µ and μ correctly.
142 - add support for blending and blurring with XRender (Emanuele Giaquinta).
143 - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta).
144 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
145 - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta).
146 - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta).
147 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
148 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
149 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
150 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
151 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
152 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
153 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
154 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
155 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
156 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
157 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
158 characters other than first one in the selected cell
159 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
160 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
161 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
162 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
163 (found by Mikachu).
164 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
165 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
166 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
167 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
168 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
169 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
170 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
171 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
172 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
173 for 256 colours.
174 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
175 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
176 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
177 88*88 possible pairs.
178 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
179 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
180 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
181 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
182 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
183 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
184 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
185 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
186 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
187 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
188 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
189 backspacekey was given.
190 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
191 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
192 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
193 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
194 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
195 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
196
1979.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
198 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
199 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
200 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
201 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
202 Mikachu).
203 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
204 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
205 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
206 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
207 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
208 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
209 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
210 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
211 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
212 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
213 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
214 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
215 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
216 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
217 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
218 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
219 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
220 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
221 - update to libptytty 1.3.
222 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
223 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
224 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
225 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
226 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
227 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
228 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
229 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
230 in need of fixing. go figure.
231 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
232 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
233 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
234 the new ->selection_screen method.
235 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
236 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
237 - fix printpipe data output (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
238 - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection.
239 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.
240 - updated compose tables to unicode 5.2.0.
241
2429.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
243 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
244 - updates libev to 3.48.
245 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
246 when a window was closed.
247 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
248 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
249 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
250 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
251 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
252 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
253 makes copy&paste work.
254 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
255 no longer apply.
256 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
257 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
258 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
259 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
260 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
261 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
262 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
263 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
264 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
265 the only known workaround.
266 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
267 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
268 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
269 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
270 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
271 disabling size hints.
272 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
273 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
274 as mouse reporting.
275 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
276 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
277 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
278 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
279 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
280 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
281 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
282 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
283 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
284 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
285 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
286 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
287
2889.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
289 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
290 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
291 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
292 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
293 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
294 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
295 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
296 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
297 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
298 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
299 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
300 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
301 help working window managers as well.
302 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
303 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
304 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
305 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
306 from the toplevel window to the children.
307 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
308 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
309 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
310 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
311
3129.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
313 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
314 - fix build with !xft.
315 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
316
3179.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
318 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
319 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
320 received" problem, again :)
321 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
322
3239.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
324 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
325 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
326 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
327 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
328 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
329 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
330 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
331 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
332 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
333 channels or background images are used.
334 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
335 till the first event arrives. or so.
336 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
337 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
338 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
339 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
340 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
341 resets the terminal.
342 - scrollbar code cleanups.
343 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
344 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
345 - updated to libev 3.0.
346
3478.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
348 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
349 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
350 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
351 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
352 would not clear it visually in another.
353 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
354 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
355 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
356 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
357 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
358 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
359
3608.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
361 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
362 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
363 effects.
364 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
365 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
366 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
367 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
368 text was visible.
369 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
370 some minor improvements.
371 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
372 display and not once per terminal window.
373 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
374
3758.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
376 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
377 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
378 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
379
3808.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
381 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
382 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
383 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
384 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
385 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
386 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
387 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
388
3898.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
390 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
391
3928.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
393 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
394 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
395 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
396 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
397 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
398 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
399 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
400 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
401 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
402 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
403 - parallel builds should work once more.
404
4058.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
406 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
407 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
408 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
409 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
410 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
411 missing DISPLAY.
412 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
413 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
414 - updated io_manager.
415
4168.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
417 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
418 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
419 /usr/X11R6/lib.
420 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
421 patch by Sasha Vasko.
422 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
423 (patch by Philip Paeps).
424 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
425 (patch by Mikachu).
426 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
427 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
428 digit (exg).
429 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
430 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
431 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
432 extension (tpope).
433 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
434 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
435 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
436 problems.
437
4388.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
439 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
440 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
441 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
442 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
443 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
444 (found by Aiviru).
445 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
446 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
447 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
448 case to work around for :/
449 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
450 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
451 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
452 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
453 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
454 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
455 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
456 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
457 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
458 Paskevich).
459 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
460 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
461 - update libptytty.
462 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
463 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
464 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
465 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
466 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
467 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
468 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
469 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
470 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
471
4728.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
473 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
474 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
475 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
476 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
477 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
478 Reported by Takano Akio.
479 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
480 reported by exg.
481 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
482 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
483 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
484 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
485
4868.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
487 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
488 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
489 circumstances (reported by exg).
490 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
491 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
492 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
493 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
494 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
495 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
496 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
497 - update to libptytty-1.0.
498 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
499 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
500 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
501 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
502 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
503 bug #143985).
504 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
505 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
506 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
507 - manpage fix by exg.
508
5097.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
510 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
511 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
512 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
513 it does! :->
514 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
515 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
516
5177.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
518 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
519 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
520 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
521 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
522 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
523 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
524 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
525 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
526 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
527 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
528 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
529 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
530 uppercase character.
531 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
532 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
533 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
534 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
535 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
536 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
537 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
538 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
539 generic osc_seq.
540 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
541 were invoked recursively.
542 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
543 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
544 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
545 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
546 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
547 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
548 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
549 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
550 by omatunto_.
551 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
552 follow C++ closely enough.
553 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
554 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
555 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
556 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
557
5587.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
559 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
560 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
561 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
562 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
563 click, and eats the click.
564 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
565 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
566 refresh bugs please.
567 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
568 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
569 improve size hint setting.
570 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
571 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
572 to correctly position their preedit window.
573 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
574 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
575 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
576 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
577 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
578 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
579 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
580 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
581 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
582 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
583 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
584 (reported by Paco-Paco).
585 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
586 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
587 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
588
5897.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
590 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
591 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
592 resource value.
593 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
594 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
595 relevant tab window.
596 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
597 (initial patch by hednod).
598 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
599 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
600 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
601 the benefit of automove-background.
602 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
603 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
604 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
605 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
606 __linux__.
607 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
608 the colour components.
609 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
610 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
611 - more colour rtt optimisations.
612 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
613 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
614 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
615 - minor libptytty update.
616
6177.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
618 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
619 detection:
620 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
621 - overlap detection was improved.
622 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
623 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
624 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
625 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
626 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
627 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
628 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
629 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
630 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
631 broken.
632 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
633 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
634 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
635 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
636 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
637 (patch by Paco-Paco).
638 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
639 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
640 an "[alpha]" prefix.
641 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
642 transparent. Long Live Xft!
643 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
644 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
645 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
646 on a pseudocolor screen.
647 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
648 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
649 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
650 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
651 - small configure updates.
652 - further RTT optimisations.
653 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
654 the debian package.
655 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
656 but much newer than the old one.
657
6587.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
659 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
660 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
661 - small configure updates for libptytty.
662 - fixed version options: line output.
663 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
664
6657.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
666 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
667 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
668 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
669 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
670 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
671 selection extension.
672 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
673 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
674 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
675 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
676 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
677 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
678 needs the careful rendering mode.
679 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
680 too wide and needs careful mode.
681 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
682 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
683 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
684 atoms only once per display.
685 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
686 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
687 xterm.
688
6897.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
690 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
691 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
692 getenv (reproducible: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
693 ctrl-shift-672c).
694 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
695 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
696 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
697 the primary screen.
698 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
699 could lead to an assertion failure.
700 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
701 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
702 via mouse clicks.
703 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
704 with shift - mouse button 2.
705 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
706 in non-synthetic events.
707 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
708 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
709 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
710 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
711 whole urxvt[d] process.
712 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
713 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
714 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
715 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
716
7177.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
718 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
719 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
720 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
721 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
722 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
723 special privileges.
724 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
725 itself.
726 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
727 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
728 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
729 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
730 similar stuff.
731 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
732 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
733 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
734 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
735 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
736 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
737 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
738 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
739 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
740 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
741 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
742 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
743 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
744 (Emanuele Giaquinta=exg).
745 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
746 to set the window title.
747 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
748 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
749 at the wrong time.
750 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
751 anymore.
752 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
753 - nuked QNX support.
754 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
755 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
756 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
757 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
758
7597.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
760 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
761 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
762 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
763 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
764 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
765 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
766 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
767 and much much more.
768 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
769 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
770 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
771 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
772 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
773 setuid/setgid.
774 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
775 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
776 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
777 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
778 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
779 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
780 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
781 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
782 compatible, and not really small either.
783 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
784 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
785 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
786 to crashes.
787 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
788 colours.
789 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
790 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
791
7926.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
793 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
794 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
795 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
796 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
797 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
798 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
799 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
800 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
801 by Mikachu).
802 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
803 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
804 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
805 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
806 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
807 Not guaranteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
808 - fix directory permissions on install.
809 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
810 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
811 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
812 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
813 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
814
8156.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
816 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
817 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
818 Chuck Blake.
819 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
820 obscure the mouse cursor position.
821 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
822 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
823 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
824 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
825 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
826 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
827 transfer efficiency.
828 - further minor cleanups.
829
8306.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
14 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.). 831 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
15 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback 832 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
16 while the user still drags. 833 while the user still drags.
17 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were 834 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
18 not drawn correctly. 835 not drawn correctly.
19 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading 836 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
20 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults. 837 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
21 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong. 838 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
22 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too. 839 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
23 - use unicode white space instead of hardcoded values for stripping 840 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
24 whitespace. 841 stripping whitespace.
25 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections. 842 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
843 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
26 844
276.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005 8456.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
28 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again. 846 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
29 - enable slow link support by default. 847 - enable slow link support by default.
30 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions 848 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
33 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a 851 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
34 partial patch). 852 partial patch).
35 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each. 853 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
