16TODO: distributed clipboard example
17 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
18 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
19 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
20 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
21 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
22 special privileges.
23 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
24 itself.
25 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
26 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
27 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
28 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
29 similar stuff.
30 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
31 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
32 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
33 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
34 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
35 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
36 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
37 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
38 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
39 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
40 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
41 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
42 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
43 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
44 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
45 to set the window title.
46 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
47 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
48 at the wrong time.
49 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
50 anymore.
51 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
52 - nuked QNX support.
53 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
54 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
55 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
56 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
