1TODO: underline cursor, simply using underline 1TODO: harmonize --disable-options into position-dependent options.
2TODO: better default settings for hangul: ex. 냻 2TODO: after requesting the selection and getting a timeout, no further requests will be sent.
322:32 <zrajm> I *really* like the pointerBlank feature -- though I'd like it to *only*
4 hide the pointer when I hit a key, never on a timeout -- I kinda
5 expected that it would work this way if I set pointerBlankDelay to 0 but
6 that more or less turns the pointer completely off inside the urxvt
7 window.. not the behaviour I expected.
822:43 <zrajm> E.g. xterm has a couple of settings for when you select using
9 tripple-clicking (entire lines). I've become quite used to
10 "xterm*cutToBeginningOfLine: off" (which causes the first line to be
11 selected only from the beginning of the word under the cursor) and
12 "xterm*cutNewline: off" (which causes xterm not to include the newline
13 character of the last line selected) -- these are especially swell when
14 I select urls (which usually occur on a line by the
15TODO: custom keymap must not "overwrite" default keymap

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 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
22 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
23 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
24 stripping whitespace.
25 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
26
276.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
28 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
29 - enable slow link support by default.
30 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
31 (also a bug in original rxvt).
32 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
33 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
34 partial patch).
35 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
36 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
37 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
38 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
39 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
40 - implement -hold option.
41 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
42 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
43 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
44 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
45 - slight overall speed improvements.
46 - considerably improved code clarity.
47 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
48 buffer.
49
505.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
51 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
52 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
53 (matters only for rxvtd).
54 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
55 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
56 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
57
585.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
59 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
60 If you want the old behaviour, try:
61 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
62 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
63 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
64 percentage by 100-percentage.
65 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
66 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
67 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
68 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
69 windows.
70 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
71 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
72 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
73 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
74 - replaced INSTALL file.
75
765.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
77 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
78 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
79 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
80 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
81 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
82 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
83 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
84 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
85
865.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
87 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
88 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
89 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
90 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
91 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
92 Affects display in iso14755 box.
93 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
94 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
95 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
96 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
97 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
98 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
99 cutting pieces off of characters.
100 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
101 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
102 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
103 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
104 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
105 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
106 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
