16TODO: on_seelction_popup hook or so. 20 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
17TODO: distributed clipboard example 21 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
18 - new script: perl/selection-pastebin 22 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
19 - improved security of setuid/setgid operation, which is now 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.

28 via mouse clicks.
29 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
30 with shift - mouse button 2

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.

24 run with special privileges. 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.
