20 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
21 with shift - mouse button 2
22 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
23 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
24 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
25 via mouse clicks.
26 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
27 in non-synthetic events.

297.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
30 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
31 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
32 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
33 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
34 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
35 special privileges.
36 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
37 itself.
38 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
39 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
40 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
41 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
42 similar stuff.
43 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
44 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
45 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
46 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
47 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
48 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
49 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
50 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
51 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
52 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
53 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
54 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
55 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
56 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
57 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
58 to set the window title.
59 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
60 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
61 at the wrong time.
62 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
63 anymore.
64 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
65 - nuked QNX support.
66 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
67 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
68 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
69 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
