|
20 | TODO: alsamixer/wild resize => secondary leaks into primary scrollback? |
|
|
21 | - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple |
|
|
22 | environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within |
|
|
23 | getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once, |
|
|
24 | ctrl-shift-672c). |
|
|
25 | - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused |
|
|
26 | non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection. |
|
|
27 | - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal. |
|
|
28 | - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning |
|
|
29 | via mouse clicks. |
|
|
30 | - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection |
|
|
31 | with shift - mouse button 2 |
|
|
32 | - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates |
|
|
33 | in non-synthetic events. |
|
|
34 | - created a separate libpty for portable and secure |
|
|
35 | pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling. |
|
|
36 | - the non-terminfo visual bell is now done asynchronously, so |
|
|
37 | continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the |
|
|
38 | whole urxvt[d] process. |
|
|
39 | - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet). |
|
|
40 | - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc. |
|
|
41 | - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure. |
|
|
42 | - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol. |
|
|
43 | |
|
|
44 | 7.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006 |
|
|
45 | - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been |
|
|
46 | improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process |
|
|
47 | and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This |
|
|
48 | makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code |
|
|
49 | and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with |
|
|
50 | special privileges. |
|
|
51 | - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid |
|
|
52 | itself. |
|
|
53 | - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get |
|
|
54 | the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap. |
|
|
55 | - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to |
|
|
56 | e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or |
|
|
57 | similar stuff. |
| 15 | - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't |

|
|
67 | - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus, |
|
|
68 | as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm). |
|
|
69 | - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD. |
|
|
70 | - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure |
|
|
71 | (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
72 | - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description, |
|
|
73 | to set the window title. |
|
|
74 | - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes |
|
|
75 | some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables |
|
|
76 | at the wrong time. |
|
|
77 | - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support |
|
|
78 | anymore. |
|
|
79 | - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH. |
|
|
80 | - nuked QNX support. |
|
|
81 | - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code. |
