11TODO: http://www120.pair.com/mccarthy/nextstep/intro.htmld/Workspace.html is the correct nextstep look. 10TODO: slow drag selection on remote display - other things seem fast (rxvt illness, motion hints?)
12TODO: rxvt -name urxvt-girly /// leave pixel droppings 11TODO: better resource handling for tabbar in -pe tabbed.
13TODO: distributed clipboard example 12WISH: investigate -pe tabbed -g 80x25 being 23 not 24 or 25 lines
14WISH: perl extension for background image loading and moving the origin. 13 => when setting the constraints, the wm might (correctly)
15WISH: OnTheSpot editing, or maybe switch to miiiiiiif. or maybe use perl and an overlay... 14 resize the outer window, which might result in a smaller window overall.

197.2 22TODO: `/etc/udev/rules.d/41-mythtv-permissions.rules'
23TODO: exg-- patch
24TODO: selection_beg/end should set screen, or so
25TODO: - upgrade to libev-xx
26TODO: -rv interacts badly with popups.
27TODO: - gcc-4.4/const/Milos Jakubicek.
28 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
29 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
30 Mikachu).
31 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
32 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
33 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
34 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
35 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
36 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
37 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
38 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
39 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
40 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
41 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
42 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
43 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
44 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
45 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
46
479.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
48 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
49 - updates libev to 3.48.
50 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
51 when a window was closed.
52 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
53 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
54 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
55 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
56 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
57 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
58 makes copy&paste work.
59 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
60 no longer apply.
61 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
62 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
63 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
64 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
65 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
66 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
67 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
68 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
69 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
70 the only known workaround.
71 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
72 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
73 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
74 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that errornously resize
75 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
76 disabling size hints.
77 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
78 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
79 as mouse reporting.
80 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
81 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
82 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
83 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
84 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
85 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
86 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
87 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
88 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
89 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
90 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
91 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
92
939.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
94 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
95 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
96 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
97 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
98 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend
99 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
100 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
101 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
102 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
103 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
104 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
105 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
106 help working window managers as well.
107 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
108 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
109 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
110 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
111 from the toplevel window to the children.
112 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
113 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
114 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
115 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
116
1179.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
118 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
119 - fix build with !xft.
120 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
121
1229.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
123 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
124 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
125 received" problem, again :)
126 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
127
1289.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
129 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
130 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
131 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
132 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
133 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
134 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
135 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
136 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
137 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
138 channels or background images are used.
139 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
140 till the first event arrives. or so.
141 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
142 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
143 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
144 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
145 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
146 resets the terminal.
147 - scrollbar code cleanups.
148 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
149 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
150 - updated to libev 3.0.
151
1528.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
153 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
154 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
155 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
156 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
157 would not clear it visually in another.
158 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
159 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
160 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
161 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
162 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
163 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
164
1658.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
166 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
167 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
168 effects.
169 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
170 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
171 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
172 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
173 text was visible.
174 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
175 some minor improvements.
176 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
177 display and not once per terminal window.
178 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
179
1808.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
181 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
182 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
183 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
184
1858.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
186 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
187 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
188 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
189 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
190 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
191 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
192 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
193
1948.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
195 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
196
1978.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
198 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
199 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
200 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
201 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
202 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
203 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
204 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
205 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
206 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
207 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
208 - parallel builds should work once more.
209
2108.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
211 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
212 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
213 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
214 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
215 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
216 missing DISPLAY.
217 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
218 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
219 - updated io_manager.
220
2218.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
222 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
223 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
224 /usr/X11R6/lib.
225 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
226 patch by Sasha Vasko.
227 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
228 (patch by Philip Paeps).
229 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
230 (patch by Mikachu).
231 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
232 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
233 digit (exg).
234 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
235 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
236 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
237 extension (tpope).
238 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
239 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
240 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
241 problems.
242
2438.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
244 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
245 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
246 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
247 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
248 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
249 (found by Aiviru).
250 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
251 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
252 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
253 case to work around for :/
254 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
255 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
256 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
257 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
258 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
259 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
260 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
261 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
262 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
263 Paskevich).
264 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
265 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
266 - update libptytty.
267 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
268 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
269 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
270 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
271 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
272 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
273 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
274 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
275 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
276
2778.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
278 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
279 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
280 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
281 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
282 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
283 Reported by Takano Akio.
284 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
285 reported by exg.
286 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
287 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
288 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
289 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
290
2918.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
292 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
293 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
294 circumstances (reported by exg).
295 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
296 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
297 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
298 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
299 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
300 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
301 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
302 - update to libptytty-1.0.
303 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
304 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
305 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
306 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
307 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
308 bug #143985).
309 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
310 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
311 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
312 - manpage fix by exg.
313
3147.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
315 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
316 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
317 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
318 it does! :->
319 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
320 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
321
3227.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
323 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
324 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
325 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
326 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
327 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
328 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
329 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
330 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
331 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
332 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
333 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
334 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
335 uppercase character.
336 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
337 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
338 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
339 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
340 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
341 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
342 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
343 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
344 generic osc_seq.
345 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
346 were invoked recursively.
347 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
348 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
349 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
350 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
351 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
352 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
353 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
354 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
355 by omatunto_.
356 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
357 follow C++ closely enough.
358 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
359 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
360 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
361 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
362
3637.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
364 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
365 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
366 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
367 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
368 click, and eats the click.
369 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
370 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
371 refresh bugs please.
372 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
373 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
374 improve size hint setting.
375 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
376 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
377 to correctly position their preedit window.
378 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
379 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
380 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
381 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
382 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
383 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
384 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
385 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
386 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
387 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
388 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
389 (reported by Paco-Paco).
390 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
391 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
392 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
393
3947.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
395 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
396 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
397 resource value.
398 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
399 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
400 relevant tab window.
401 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
402 (initial patch by hednod).
403 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
404 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
405 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
406 the benefit of automove-background.
407 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
408 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
409 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
410 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
411 __linux__.
412 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
413 the colour components.
414 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
415 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
416 - more colour rtt optimisations.
417 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
418 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
419 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
420 - minor libptytty update.
421
4227.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
423 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
424 detection:
425 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
426 - overlap detection was improved.
427 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
428 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
429 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
430 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
431 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
432 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
433 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
434 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
435 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
436 broken.
437 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
438 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
439 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
440 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
441 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
442 (patch by Paco-Paco).
443 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
444 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
445 an "[alpha]" prefix.
446 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
447 transparent. Long Live Xft!
448 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
449 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
450 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
451 on a pseudocolor screen.
452 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
453 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
454 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
455 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
456 - small configure updates.
457 - further RTT optimisations.
458 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
459 the debian package.
460 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
461 but much newer than the old one.
462
4637.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
464 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
465 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
466 - small configure updates for libptytty.
467 - fixed version options: line output.
468 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
469
4707.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
471 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
472 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
473 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
474 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
475 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
476 selection extension.
477 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
478 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
479 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
480 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
481 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
482 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
483 needs the careful rendering mode.
484 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
485 too wide and needs careful mode.
486 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
487 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
488 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
489 atoms only once per display.
490 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
491 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
492 xterm.
493
4947.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
495 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
496 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
497 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
498 ctrl-shift-672c).
499 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
500 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
501 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
502 the primary screen.
503 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
504 could lead to an assertion failure.
505 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
506 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
507 via mouse clicks.
508 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
509 with shift - mouse button 2.
510 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
511 in non-synthetic events.
512 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
513 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
514 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
515 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
516 whole urxvt[d] process.
517 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
518 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
519 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
20 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol. 520 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
