159.0 15 - SYNCCVS: updated to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
16 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
17
187.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
19 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
20 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
21 - small configure updates for libptytty.
22 - fixed version options: line output.
23 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
24
257.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
26 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
27 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
28 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
29 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
30 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
31 selection extension.
32 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
33 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
34 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
35 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
36 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
37 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
38 needs the careful rendering mode.
39 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
40 too wide and needs careful mode.
41 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
42 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
43 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
44 atoms only once per display.
45 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
46 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
47 xterm.

497.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
50 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
51 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
52 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
53 ctrl-shift-672c).
54 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
55 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
56 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
57 the primary screen.
58 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
59 could lead to an assertion failure.
60 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
61 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
62 via mouse clicks.
63 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
64 with shift - mouse button 2.
65 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
66 in non-synthetic events.
67 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
68 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
69 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
70 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
71 whole urxvt[d] process.
72 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
73 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
74 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
75 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
76
777.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
78 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
79 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
80 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
81 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
82 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
83 special privileges.
84 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
85 itself.
86 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
87 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
88 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
89 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
90 similar stuff.
16 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't 91 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
17 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. 92 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
18 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes 93 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. 94 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
22 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection 95 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
23 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases 96 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
24 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant. 97 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
25 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now 98 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
26 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started. 99 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
100 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
101 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
102 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
103 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
104 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
105 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
106 to set the window title.
107 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
108 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
109 at the wrong time.

111 anymore.

28 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom. 116 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
29 - applied many patches by Emanuele Giaquinta, cleanups and 117 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
30 bugfixes in the utmp logging code and configure.
31 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
32 anymore.
