18TODO: move resources out of allocated
19 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
20 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
21 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
22 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
23 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
24 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
25 atoms only once per display.
26 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
27 xterm.

297.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
30 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
31 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
32 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
33 ctrl-shift-672c).
34 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
35 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
36 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
37 the primary screen.
38 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
39 could lead to an assertion failure.
40 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
41 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
42 via mouse clicks.
43 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
44 with shift - mouse button 2.
45 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
46 in non-synthetic events.
47 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
48 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
49 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
50 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
51 whole urxvt[d] process.
52 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
53 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
54 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
55 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.

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