199.0 15 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
16 detection:
17 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
18 - overlap detection was improved.
19 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
20 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
21 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
22 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
23 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
24 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
25 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
26 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
27 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
28 broken.
29 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
30 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
31 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
32 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
33 - short-cut allocation of known rgb values in the xlib case
34 (patch by Paco-Paco).
35 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
36 - support rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa, #argb, #aarrggbb and
37 #aaaarrrrggggbbbb (yes, it did hurt) colour "names".
38 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
39 transparent. Long Live Xft!
40 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
41 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
42 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
43 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
44 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
45 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
46 - small configure updates.
47 - further RTT optimisations.
48
497.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
50 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
51 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
52 - small configure updates for libptytty.
53 - fixed version options: line output.
54 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
55
567.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
57 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
58 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
59 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
60 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
61 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
62 selection extension.
63 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
64 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
65 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
66 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
67 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
68 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
69 needs the careful rendering mode.
70 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
71 too wide and needs careful mode.
72 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
73 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
74 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
75 atoms only once per display.
76 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
77 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
78 xterm.

807.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
81 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
82 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
83 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
84 ctrl-shift-672c).
85 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
86 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
87 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
88 the primary screen.
89 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
90 could lead to an assertion failure.
91 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
92 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
93 via mouse clicks.
94 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
95 with shift - mouse button 2.
96 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
97 in non-synthetic events.
98 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
99 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
100 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
101 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
102 whole urxvt[d] process.
103 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
104 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
105 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
106 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
