13 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
14 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
15 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
16 too), and were not restored properly (same as xterm here).
17 Affected are only systems using non-unix ptys (such as most
18 BSDs, not GNU/Linux).
19 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
20 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
21 by Mikachu)
22 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
23 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
24 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
25 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
26 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
27 - fix directory permissions on install.
28 - improved sched_yield support.

306.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
31 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
32 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
33 Chuck Blake.
34 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
35 obscure the mouse cursor position.
36 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
37 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
38 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
39 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
40 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
41 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
42 transfer efficiency.
43 - further minor cleanups.
44
456.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
46 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
47 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
48 while the user still drags.
49 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
50 not drawn correctly.
51 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
52 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
53 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
54 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
55 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
56 stripping whitespace.
57 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
58 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
59
606.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
61 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
62 - enable slow link support by default.
63 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
64 (also a bug in original rxvt).
65 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
66 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
67 partial patch).
68 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
69 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
70 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
71 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
72 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
73 - implement -hold option.
74 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
75 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
76 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
77 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
78 - slight overall speed improvements.
79 - considerably improved code clarity.
80 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
81 buffer.

19 (matters only for rxvtd). 86 (matters only for rxvtd).
87 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
88 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
89 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
