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 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
27
286.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
29 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
30 - enable slow link support by default.
31 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
32 (also a bug in original rxvt).
33 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
34 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
35 partial patch).
36 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
37 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
38 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
39 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
40 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
41 - implement -hold option.
42 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
43 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
44 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
45 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
46 - slight overall speed improvements.
47 - considerably improved code clarity.
48 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
49 buffer.
50
515.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
52 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
53 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
54 (matters only for rxvtd).
55 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
56 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
57 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).

595.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
60 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
61 If you want the old behaviour, try:
62 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
63 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
64 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
65 percentage by 100-percentage.
66 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
67 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
68 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
69 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
70 windows.
71 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
72 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
73 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
74 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
75 - replaced INSTALL file.
76
775.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
16 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd. 78 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
17 - seperate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages. 79 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
18 - empty enacs= specification caused problems, removed it. 80 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
81 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
82 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
83 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
84 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
85 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
