 TODO: harmonize --disable-options into position-dependent options.
 TODO: after requesting the selection and getting a timeout, no further requests will be sent.
 TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts
 TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
 TODO: http://www120.pair.com/mccarthy/nextstep/intro.htmld/Workspace.html is the correct nextstep look.
 TODO: clarify and get rid of SMOOTH_REFRESH etc.
+WISH: perl extension for background image loading and moving the origin.

 WISH: support tex fonts
-7.0
+9.0
-TODO: run external commands more sytematically (using $self->env etc.)
+        - improved security of setuid/setgid operation, which is now
-TODO: document searchable-scorllback hotkey
+          encouraged, by moving privileged operations into a separate
+          process and permanently dropping privileges within the
+          terminal. This makes it possible to remove security checks from
+          the perl code and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to
+          run with special privileges.
+        - implemented perl:selection:remote-pastebin command in perl/selection
+	- use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
+          span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0.
+        - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
+          some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
+          at the wrong time.
+	- selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
+        - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
+          code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
+          :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
+        - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
+          being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
+        - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
+        - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
+        - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
+          (Emanuele Giaquinta).
+        - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
+          anymore.
+	- add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
+          to set the window title.
+        - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
+        - nuked QNX support.
+7.0  Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
 	- added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
           SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
         - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
           option-popup extensions enabled by default.
         - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
         - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
           side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
         - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
         - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
         - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
-        - applied better configure support for openpty by Emanuele Giaquinta.
+        - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
         - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
         - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
           compatible, and not really small either.
         - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
         - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
         - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
           to crashes.
         - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
           colours.
         - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
+        - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
 6.3  Wed Jan  4 22:37:10 CET 2006
         - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
           not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
           world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
 	- many other minor bugfixes.
 1.8  Mon Feb  2 20:09:18 CET 2004
 	- almost total conversion to C++. Except for introducing
 	  new bugs, this should not change much.
-	- fix and re-enable background pixmap and inherit pixmap support.
+        - fix and re-enable background pixmap and inherit pixmap support.
-	- re-enabled multiple scrollbar support.
+        - re-enabled multiple scrollbar support.
-	- added plain scrollbar style and restored xterm scrollbar.
+        - added plain scrollbar style and restored xterm scrollbar.
 	- blinking and selections work slightly better now.
 	- fix an error condition when rxvt receives more than one screenful
 	  of output. should occur with original rxvt, too, but very rarely.
 	  (I guess the code contains more surprises of this sort...)
