159.0 18TODO: ctrl - mouse button2 in vim makes X freeze (unreproducable with cvs)
19 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
20 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
21 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
22 - correctly ask XIM for events it needs to be enabled on the window.

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

527.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
53 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
54 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
55 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
56 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
57 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
58 special privileges.
59 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
60 itself.
61 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
62 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
63 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
64 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
65 similar stuff.
16 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't 66 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
17 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. 67 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
18 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes 68 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
19 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
20 at the wrong time.
21 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct. 69 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.

75 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
76 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
