197.2
20 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
21 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
22 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
23 ctrl-shift-672c).
24 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
25 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
26 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
27 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
28 via mouse clicks.
29 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
30 with shift - mouse button 2
31 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
32 in non-synthetic events.
33 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
34 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling.
35 - the non-terminfo visual bell is now done asynchronously, so
36 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
37 whole urxvt[d] process.
38 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
39 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
40 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
41 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
42
437.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
44 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
45 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
46 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
47 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
48 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
49 special privileges.
50 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
51 itself.
52 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
53 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
54 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
55 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
56 similar stuff.
57 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
58 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
59 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
60 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
61 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
62 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
63 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
64 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
65 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
66 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
67 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
68 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
69 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
70 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
71 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
72 to set the window title.
73 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
74 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
75 at the wrong time.
76 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
77 anymore.
78 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
79 - nuked QNX support.
80 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
81 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
82 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
83 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
84
857.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
86 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
87 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
88 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
89 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
90 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
91 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
92 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
93 and much much more.
94 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
95 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
96 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
97 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
98 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
99 setuid/setgid.
100 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
101 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
102 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
103 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
104 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
105 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
106 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
107 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
108 compatible, and not really small either.
109 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
110 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
111 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
112 to crashes.
113 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
114 colours.
115 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
116 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
117
1186.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
119 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
120 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
121 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
122 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
123 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
124 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
125 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
126 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
127 by Mikachu).
128 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
129 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
130 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
131 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
132 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
133 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
134 - fix directory permissions on install.
135 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
136 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
137 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
138 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
139 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
140
1416.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
142 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
143 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
144 Chuck Blake.
145 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
146 obscure the mouse cursor position.
147 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
148 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
149 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
150 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
151 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
152 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
153 transfer efficiency.
154 - further minor cleanups.
155
1566.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
157 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
158 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
159 while the user still drags.
160 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
161 not drawn correctly.
162 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
163 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
164 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
165 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
166 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
167 stripping whitespace.
168 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
169 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
170
1716.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
172 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
173 - enable slow link support by default.
174 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
175 (also a bug in original rxvt).
176 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
177 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
178 partial patch).
179 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
180 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
181 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
182 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
183 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
184 - implement -hold option.
185 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
186 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
187 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
188 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
189 - slight overall speed improvements.
190 - considerably improved code clarity.
191 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
192 buffer.
193
1945.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
195 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
196 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
197 (matters only for rxvtd).
198 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
199 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
200 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
