14 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
15 detection:
16 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
17 - overlap detection was improved.
18 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
19 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
20 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
21 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
22 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
23 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
24 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
25 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
26 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
27 broken.
28 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
29 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
30 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
31 of rgb:rr/gg/bb.
32 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
33 - support rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa, #argb, #aarrggbb and
34 #aaaarrrrggggbbbb (yes, it did hurt) colour "names".
35 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
36 transparent. Long Live Xft!
37 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
38 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
39 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
40 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
41 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
42 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
43 - small configure updates.
44 - further RTT optimisations.
45
467.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
47 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
48 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
49 - small configure updates for libptytty.
50 - fixed version options: line output.
51 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
52
537.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
54 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
55 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
56 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
57 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
58 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
59 selection extension.
60 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
61 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
62 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
63 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
64 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
65 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
66 needs the careful rendering mode.
67 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
68 too wide and needs careful mode.
69 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
70 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
71 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
72 atoms only once per display.
73 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
74 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
75 xterm.
76
777.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
78 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
79 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
80 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
81 ctrl-shift-672c).
82 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
83 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
84 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
85 the primary screen.
86 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
87 could lead to an assertion failure.
88 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
89 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
90 via mouse clicks.
91 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
92 with shift - mouse button 2.
93 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
94 in non-synthetic events.
95 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
96 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
97 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
98 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
99 whole urxvt[d] process.
100 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
101 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
102 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
103 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
104
1057.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
106 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
107 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
108 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
109 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
110 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
111 special privileges.
112 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
113 itself.
114 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
115 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
116 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
117 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
118 similar stuff.
119 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
120 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
121 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
122 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
123 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
124 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
125 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
126 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
127 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
128 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
129 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
130 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
131 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
132 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
133 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
134 to set the window title.
135 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
136 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
137 at the wrong time.
138 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
139 anymore.
140 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
141 - nuked QNX support.
142 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
143 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
144 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
145 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
146
1477.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
148 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
149 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
150 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
151 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
152 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
153 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
154 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
155 and much much more.
156 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
157 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
158 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
159 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
160 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
161 setuid/setgid.
162 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
163 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
164 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
165 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
166 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
167 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
168 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
169 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
170 compatible, and not really small either.
171 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
172 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
173 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
174 to crashes.
175 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
176 colours.
177 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
178 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
179
1806.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
181 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
182 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
183 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
184 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
185 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
186 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
187 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
188 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
189 by Mikachu).
190 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
191 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
192 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
193 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
194 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
195 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
196 - fix directory permissions on install.
197 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
198 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
199 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
200 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
201 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
202
2036.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
204 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
205 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
206 Chuck Blake.
207 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
208 obscure the mouse cursor position.
209 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
210 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
211 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
212 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
213 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
214 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
215 transfer efficiency.
216 - further minor cleanups.
217
2186.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
219 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
220 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
221 while the user still drags.
222 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
223 not drawn correctly.
224 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
225 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
226 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
227 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
228 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
229 stripping whitespace.
230 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
231 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
232
2336.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
234 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
235 - enable slow link support by default.
236 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
237 (also a bug in original rxvt).
238 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
239 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
240 partial patch).
241 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
242 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
243 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
244 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
245 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
246 - implement -hold option.
247 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
248 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
249 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
250 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
251 - slight overall speed improvements.
252 - considerably improved code clarity.
253 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
254 buffer.
255
2565.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
257 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
258 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
259 (matters only for rxvtd).
260 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
261 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
262 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
263
2645.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
265 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
266 If you want the old behaviour, try:
267 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
268 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
269 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
270 percentage by 100-percentage.
271 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
15 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update 272 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
16 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is 273 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
17 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other 274 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
18 windows. 275 windows.
276 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
277 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
278 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
279 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
280 - replaced INSTALL file.
