13 - workaround for possible linux-kernel bug, details pending. 149.0
15TODO: scroll lines into scrollback when tscroll==0, regardless of bscrol
16 - add tsl/fsl capabilities to the terminfo description, to set the
17 window title.
18 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
19 - fix some bugs in the utmp logging code.
20
217.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
22 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
23 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
24 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
25 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
26 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
27 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
28 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
29 and much much more.
30 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
31 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
32 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
33 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
34 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
35 setuid/setgid.
36 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
37 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
38 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
39 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
40 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
41 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
42 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
43 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
44 compatible, and not really small either.
45 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
46 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
47 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
48 to crashes.
49 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
50 colours.
51 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
52 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.

546.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
55 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
56 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
57 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
58 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
59 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
60 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
61 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
62 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
63 by Mikachu).
64 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
65 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
66 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
67 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
68 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
69 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
70 - fix directory permissions on install.
71 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
72 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
73 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
74 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
75 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
76
776.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
78 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
79 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
80 Chuck Blake.
81 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
82 obscure the mouse cursor position.
83 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
84 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
85 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
86 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
87 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
88 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
89 transfer efficiency.
90 - further minor cleanups.
91
926.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
93 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
94 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
95 while the user still drags.
96 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
97 not drawn correctly.
98 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
99 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
100 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
101 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
102 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
103 stripping whitespace.
104 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
105 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
