DUMB: support tex fonts + - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix. + - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the + resource value. + - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument. + - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and keys events to th + relevant tab window. + - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults + (initial patch by hednod). + - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and + selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime. + - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for + the benefit of automove-background. + - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset. + - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect. + - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted. + - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on + __linux__. + - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering + the colour components. + - plain scrollbar works better with -sr. + - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look. + - more colour rtt optimisations. + - properly(?) free colours on window close. + - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections. + - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets. + +7.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006 + - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width + detection: + - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated, + - overlap detection was improved. + - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft). + - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking, + causing unnecessary screen redraws. + - better handling of XFT combining characters. + - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they + might get used for other encodings which really need it, later. + - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally + weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft. + - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly + broken. + - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken. + - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to + reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation + of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft. + - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case + (patch by Paco-Paco). + - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support. + - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and + an "[alpha]" prefix. + - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100% + transparent. Long Live Xft! + - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use + Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly. + - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails + on a pseudocolor screen. + - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes. + - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken). + - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer. + - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number. + - small configure updates. + - further RTT optimisations. + +7.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006 + - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling, + - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre. + - small configure updates for libptytty. + - fixed version options: line output. + - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code. + +7.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006 + - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl + (could lead to global grabs never being cleared). + - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot). + - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2. + - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the + selection extension. + - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external + commands to fetch and store the selection data. + - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth + than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic). + - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences. + - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and + needs the careful rendering mode. + - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is + too wide and needs careful mode. + - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode. + - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous. + - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating + atoms only once per display. + - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command. + - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with + xterm. + 7.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
