207.5 Tue Jan 31 01:25:41 CET 2006
21 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
22 detection:
23 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
24 - overlap detection was improved.
25 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
26 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
27 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
28 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
29 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
30 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
31 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
32 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
33 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
34 broken.
35 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
36 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
37 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
38 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
39 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
40 (patch by Paco-Paco).
41 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
42 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
43 an "[alpha]" prefix.
44 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
45 transparent. Long Live Xft!
46 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
47 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
48 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
49 on a pseudocolor screen.
50 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
51 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
52 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
53 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
54 - small configure updates.
55 - further RTT optimisations.
56 - don't cause an unnecessary refresh on focus changes.
57
587.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
59 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
60 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
61 - small configure updates for libptytty.
62 - fixed version options: line output.
63 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
64
657.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
66 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
67 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
68 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
69 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
70 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
71 selection extension.
72 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
73 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
74 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
75 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
76 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
77 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
78 needs the careful rendering mode.
79 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
80 too wide and needs careful mode.
81 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
82 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
83 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
84 atoms only once per display.
85 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
86 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
87 xterm.
88
897.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
90 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
91 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
92 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
93 ctrl-shift-672c).
94 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
95 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
96 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
97 the primary screen.
98 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
99 could lead to an assertion failure.
100 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
101 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
102 via mouse clicks.
103 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
104 with shift - mouse button 2.
105 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
106 in non-synthetic events.
107 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
108 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
109 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
110 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
111 whole urxvt[d] process.
112 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
113 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
114 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
115 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
116
1177.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
118 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
119 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
120 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
121 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
122 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
123 special privileges.
124 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
125 itself.
126 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
127 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
128 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
129 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
130 similar stuff.
131 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
132 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
133 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
134 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
135 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
136 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
137 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
138 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
139 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
140 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
141 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
142 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
143 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
144 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
145 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
146 to set the window title.
147 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
148 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
149 at the wrong time.
150 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
151 anymore.
152 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
153 - nuked QNX support.
154 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
155 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
156 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
157 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
158
1597.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
160 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
161 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
162 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
163 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
164 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
165 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
166 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
167 and much much more.
168 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
169 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
170 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
171 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
172 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
173 setuid/setgid.
174 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
175 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
176 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
177 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
178 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
179 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
180 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
181 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
182 compatible, and not really small either.
183 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
184 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
185 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
186 to crashes.
187 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
188 colours.
189 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
190 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
191
1926.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
193 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
194 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
195 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
196 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
197 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
198 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
199 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
200 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
201 by Mikachu).
202 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
203 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
204 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
205 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
206 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
207 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
208 - fix directory permissions on install.
209 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
210 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
211 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
212 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
213 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
214
2156.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
216 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
217 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
218 Chuck Blake.
219 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
220 obscure the mouse cursor position.
221 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
222 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
223 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
224 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
225 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
226 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
227 transfer efficiency.
228 - further minor cleanups.
229
2306.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
231 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
232 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
233 while the user still drags.
234 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
235 not drawn correctly.
236 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
237 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
238 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
239 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
240 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
241 stripping whitespace.
242 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
243 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
244
2456.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
246 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
247 - enable slow link support by default.
248 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
249 (also a bug in original rxvt).
250 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
251 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
252 partial patch).
253 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
254 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
255 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
256 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
257 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
258 - implement -hold option.
259 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
260 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
261 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
262 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
263 - slight overall speed improvements.
264 - considerably improved code clarity.
265 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
266 buffer.
267
2685.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
269 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
270 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
271 (matters only for rxvtd).
272 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
273 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
274 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
275
2765.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
277 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
278 If you want the old behaviour, try:
279 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
280 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
281 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
282 percentage by 100-percentage.
283 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
284 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
285 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
286 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
287 windows.
288 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
289 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
290 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
291 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
292 - replaced INSTALL file.
293
2945.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
295 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
296 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
297 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
298 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
299 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
300 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
301 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
302 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
303
3045.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
15 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialized 305 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
16 every time (original rxvt also affected). Reported by Jasmin 306 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
17 Buchert. 307 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
308 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
309 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
310 Affects display in iso14755 box.
311 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
312 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
313 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
314 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
315 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
316 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
317 cutting pieces off of characters.
318 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
319 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
320 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
321 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
322 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
323 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
324 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.

195.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005 3265.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
