| 18 | - new script: perl/selection-pastebin |
21 | 7.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006 |
| 19 | - improved security of setuid/setgid operation, which is now |
22 | - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple |
|
|
23 | environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within |
|
|
24 | getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once, |
|
|
25 | ctrl-shift-672c). |
|
|
26 | - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused |
|
|
27 | non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection. |
|
|
28 | - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to |
|
|
29 | the primary screen. |
|
|
30 | - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output |
|
|
31 | could lead to an assertion failure. |
|
|
32 | - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal. |
|
|
33 | - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning |
|
|
34 | via mouse clicks. |
|
|
35 | - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection |
|
|
36 | with shift - mouse button 2. |
|
|
37 | - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates |
|
|
38 | in non-synthetic events. |
|
|
39 | - created a separate libpty for portable and secure |
|
|
40 | pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode. |
|
|
41 | - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so |
|
|
42 | continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the |
|
|
43 | whole urxvt[d] process. |
|
|
44 | - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet). |
|
|
45 | - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc. |
|
|
46 | - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure. |
|
|
47 | - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol. |
|
|

|
|
50 | - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been |

| 21 | process and permanently dropping privileges within the |

55 | special privileges. |
|
|
56 | - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid |
|
|
57 | itself. |
|
|
58 | - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get |
|
|
59 | the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap. |
|
|
60 | - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to |
|
|
61 | e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or |
|
|
62 | similar stuff. |

65 | for programs displaying a status line at the bottom. |

72 | - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus, |
