159.0 15 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
16 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
17 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
18 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
19 - small configure updates.
20 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
21 - support rgba:r/g/b/a, #argb, #aarrggbb and #aaaarrrrggggbbbb
22 colour "names".
23 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
24 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.

267.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
27 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
28 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
29 - small configure updates for libptytty.
30 - fixed version options: line output.
31 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
32
337.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
34 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
35 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
36 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
37 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
38 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
39 selection extension.
40 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
41 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
42 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
43 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
44 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
45 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
46 needs the careful rendering mode.
47 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
48 too wide and needs careful mode.
49 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
50 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
51 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
52 atoms only once per display.
53 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
54 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
55 xterm.
56
577.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
58 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
59 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
60 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
61 ctrl-shift-672c).
62 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
63 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
64 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
65 the primary screen.
66 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
67 could lead to an assertion failure.
68 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
69 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
70 via mouse clicks.
71 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
72 with shift - mouse button 2.
73 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
74 in non-synthetic events.
75 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
76 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
77 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
78 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
79 whole urxvt[d] process.
80 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
81 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
82 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
83 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
84
857.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
86 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
87 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
88 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
89 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
90 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
91 special privileges.
92 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
93 itself.
94 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
95 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
96 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
97 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
98 similar stuff.
16 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't 99 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
17 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. 100 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
18 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes 101 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
19 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
20 at the wrong time.
21 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct. 102 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.

108 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
109 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
110 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
111 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
112 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
113 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
114 to set the window title.
115 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
116 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
117 at the wrong time.

119 anymore.
120 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
121 - nuked QNX support.
122 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
