3TODO: move pty/tty handling into a fork'ed server and drop all privs
2TODO: harmonize --dsiable-options into position-dependent options. 4TODO: harmonize --disable-options into position-dependent options.

9WISH: /usr/share/doc/libdisplaymigration0-dev/spec.txt 9TODO: clarify and get rid of SMOOTH_REFRESH etc.
10WISH: keymap modification via esc-sequences. 10WISH: OnTheSpot editing, or maybe switch to miiiiiiif. or maybe use perl and an overlay...
11WISH: line-rewrapping on resize

15TODO: scroll lines into scrollback when tscroll==0, regardless of bscrol
16 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
17
187.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
19 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
20 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
21 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
22 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
23 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
24 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
25 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
26 and much much more.
27 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
28 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
29 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
30 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
31 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
32 setuid/setgid.
33 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
34 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
35 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
36 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
37 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
38 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
39 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
40 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
41 compatible, and not really small either.
42 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
43 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
44 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
45 to crashes.
46 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
47 colours.
48 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
49 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.

516.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
52 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
53 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
54 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
55 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
56 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
57 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
58 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
59 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
60 by Mikachu).
61 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
62 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
63 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
64 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
65 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
66 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
67 - fix directory permissions on install.
68 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
69 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
70 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
71 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
72 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
73
746.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
75 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
76 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
77 Chuck Blake.
78 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
79 obscure the mouse cursor position.
80 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
81 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
82 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
83 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
84 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
85 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
86 transfer efficiency.
87 - further minor cleanups.
88
896.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
90 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
91 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
92 while the user still drags.
93 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
94 not drawn correctly.
95 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
96 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
97 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
98 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
99 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
100 stripping whitespace.
101 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
102 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
103
1046.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
105 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
106 - enable slow link support by default.
107 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
108 (also a bug in original rxvt).
109 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
110 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
111 partial patch).
112 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
113 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
114 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
115 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
116 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
117 - implement -hold option.
118 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
119 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
120 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
121 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
122 - slight overall speed improvements.
123 - considerably improved code clarity.
124 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
125 buffer.
126
1275.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
18 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impatc, found by darix. 128 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
129 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
130 (matters only for rxvtd).
131 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
132 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
133 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
