17 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty (not GNU/Linux, probably
18 most BSDs), privileges weren't dropped before opening the pty,
19 resulting in wrong permissions on the pseudo terminal.
20 Reported and fixed by Ryan Beasley.
21 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
22 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
23 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
24
256.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
26 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
27 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
28 while the user still drags.
29 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
30 not drawn correctly.
31 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
32 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
33 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
34 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
35 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
36 stripping whitespace.
37 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
38 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
39
406.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
41 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
42 - enable slow link support by default.
43 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
44 (also a bug in original rxvt).
45 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
46 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
47 partial patch).
48 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
49 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
50 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
51 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
52 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
53 - implement -hold option.
54 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
55 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
56 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
57 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
58 - slight overall speed improvements.
59 - considerably improved code clarity.
60 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
61 buffer.
62
635.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
64 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
65 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
66 (matters only for rxvtd).
67 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
68 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
69 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
70
715.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
72 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
73 If you want the old behaviour, try:
74 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
75 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
76 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
77 percentage by 100-percentage.
78 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
79 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
80 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
81 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
82 windows.
83 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
84 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
85 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
86 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
87 - replaced INSTALL file.
88
895.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
90 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
91 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
92 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
93 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
94 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
95 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
96 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
97 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
98
995.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
100 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
101 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
102 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
103 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
104 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
105 Affects display in iso14755 box.
106 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
107 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
108 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
109 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
110 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
111 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
112 cutting pieces off of characters.
113 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
114 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
115 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
116 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
117 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
118 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
119 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
120
1215.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
122 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
123 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
124 meaning of the given key.
125 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
126 (patch by Martin Edlman).
127
1285.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
129 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
130 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
131 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
132 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
133 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
134 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
135 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
136 to disable it.
137
1385.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
139 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
140 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
141 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
142 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
143 with modifiers.
144 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
145 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
146 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
147 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
148 and clear the scrollback buffer.
149
1505.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
151 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
152 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
153 a command.
154 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
155 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
156 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
157 in Perl/Gtk2.
158 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
159 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
160 (reported by Mikael Magnusson).
161 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
162 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
163 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
164 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
165 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
166 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
167 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
168 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
169 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
170 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
171 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
172 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
14 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is 173 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
15 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed 174 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed
