36 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
37 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
38 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
39 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
40 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
41 - add clipboard perl extension by Bert Münnich.
42 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
43 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
44
459.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
46 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
47 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
48 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
49 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
50 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
51 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
52 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
53 function.
54 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
55 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
56
579.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
58 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
59
609.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
61 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
62 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
63 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
64 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
65 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
66 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
67 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
68 Münnich).
69 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
70 are disabled.
71
729.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
73 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
74 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
75 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
76 Hemmer).
77 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
78 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
79 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
80 patch by Jan Larres).
81 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
82 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
83 as diagnosed by clang.
84 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
85 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
86 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
87 nickfailure@gmail.com).
88 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
89 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
90 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
91 for details.
92 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
93 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
94 which show up in -help etc.
95 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
96 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
97 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
98 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
99 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
100 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
101 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
102 - remove support for libafterimage.
103 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
104 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
105 libptytty instead.
106 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
107 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
108 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
109 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
110 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
111
1129.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
113 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
114 thinks thats an error.
115 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
116 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
117 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
118 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
119 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
120 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
121 and destination in composite operations.
122 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
123 for tabs.
124 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
125 Sung Pae).
126 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
127 - fix -C option on solaris.
128
1299.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
130 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
131 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
132 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
133 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
134 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
135 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
136 to disable both scaling and tiling.
137 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
138 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
139 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
140 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
141 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
142 in the next release.
143 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
144 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
145 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
146 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
147 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
148 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
149 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
150 Filardo).
151 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
152 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
153 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
154 the cell size.
155 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
156 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
157 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
158 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
159 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
160 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
161 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
162 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
163 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
164 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
165 (Bob Farrell).
166 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
167 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
168 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
169 Pohlack).
170 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
171 Michael Stapelberg).
172 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
173 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
174 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
175 edge (Mikachu).
176 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
177 handle exceptions better.
178 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
179 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
180
1819.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
182 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
183 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
184 support the UTF8_STRING target.
185 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
186 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
187 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
188 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
189 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
190 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
191 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
192 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
193 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
194 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
195
1969.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
197 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
198 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
199 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
200 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
201 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
202 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
203 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
204 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
205 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
206 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
207 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
208 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
209 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
210 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
211 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
212 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
213 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
214 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
215 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
216 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
217 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
218 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
219 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
220 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
221 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
222 with gcc.
223 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
224 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
225 - document 'thickness' resource.
226 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
227 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
228 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
229 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
230 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
231 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
232 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
233 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
234 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
235 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
236 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
237
2389.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
239 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
240 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
241 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
242 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
243 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
244 failures with gcc 4.5.
245 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
246 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
247 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
248 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
249 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
250 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
251 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
252 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
253 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
254 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
255 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
256 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
257 and has fewer limitations.
258 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
259 startup for the upper left corner.
260 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
261 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
262 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
263 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
264 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
265 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
266 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
267 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
268 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
269 - fix build on XFree86.
270 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
271 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
272 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
273 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
274
2759.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
276 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
277 - the bestest release ever.
278 - it was verified that urxvt handles µ and μ correctly.

280 - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta).
281 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
282 - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta).
283 - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta).
284 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
285 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
286 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
287 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
288 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
289 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
290 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
291 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
292 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
293 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
294 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
295 characters other than first one in the selected cell
296 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
297 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
298 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
299 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
300 (found by Mikachu).
301 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
302 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
303 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
304 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
305 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
306 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
307 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
308 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
309 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
310 for 256 colours.
311 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
312 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
313 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
314 88*88 possible pairs.
315 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
316 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
317 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
318 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
319 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
320 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
321 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
322 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
323 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
324 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
325 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
326 backspacekey was given.
327 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
328 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
329 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
330 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
331 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
332 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
333
3349.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
335 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
336 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
337 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
338 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
339 Mikachu).
340 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
341 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
342 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
343 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
344 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
345 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
346 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
347 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
348 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
349 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
350 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
351 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
352 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
353 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
354 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
355 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
356 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
357 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
358 - update to libptytty 1.3.
359 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
360 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
361 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
362 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
363 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
364 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
365 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
366 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
367 in need of fixing. go figure.
368 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
369 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
370 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
371 the new ->selection_screen method.
372 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
373 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).

378
3799.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
380 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
381 - updates libev to 3.48.
382 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
383 when a window was closed.
384 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
385 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
386 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
387 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
388 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
389 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
390 makes copy&paste work.
391 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
392 no longer apply.
393 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
394 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
395 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
396 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
397 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
398 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
399 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
400 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
401 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
402 the only known workaround.
403 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
404 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
405 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
406 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
407 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
408 disabling size hints.
409 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
410 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
411 as mouse reporting.
412 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
413 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
414 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
415 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
416 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
417 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
418 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
419 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
420 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
421 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
422 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
423 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
424
4259.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
426 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
427 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
428 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
429 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
430 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
431 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
432 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
433 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
434 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
435 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
436 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
437 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
438 help working window managers as well.
439 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
440 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
441 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
442 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
443 from the toplevel window to the children.
444 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
445 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
446 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
447 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
448
4499.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
450 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
451 - fix build with !xft.
452 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
453
4549.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
455 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
456 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
457 received" problem, again :)
458 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
459
4609.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
461 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
462 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
463 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
464 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
465 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
466 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
467 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
468 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
469 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
470 channels or background images are used.
471 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
472 till the first event arrives. or so.
473 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
474 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
475 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
476 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
477 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
478 resets the terminal.
479 - scrollbar code cleanups.
480 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
481 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
482 - updated to libev 3.0.
483
4848.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
485 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
486 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
487 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
488 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
489 would not clear it visually in another.
490 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
491 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
492 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
493 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
494 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
495 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
496
4978.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
498 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
499 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
500 effects.
501 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
502 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
503 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
504 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
505 text was visible.
506 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
507 some minor improvements.
508 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
509 display and not once per terminal window.
510 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
511
5128.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
513 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
514 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
515 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
516
5178.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
518 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
519 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
520 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
521 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
522 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
523 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
524 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
525
5268.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
527 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
528
5298.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
530 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
531 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
532 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
533 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
534 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
535 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
536 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
537 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
538 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
539 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
540 - parallel builds should work once more.
541
5428.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
543 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
544 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
545 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
546 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
547 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
548 missing DISPLAY.
549 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
550 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
551 - updated io_manager.
552
5538.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
554 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
555 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
556 /usr/X11R6/lib.
557 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
558 patch by Sasha Vasko.
559 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
560 (patch by Philip Paeps).
561 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
562 (patch by Mikachu).
563 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
564 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
565 digit (exg).
566 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
567 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
568 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
569 extension (tpope).
570 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
571 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
572 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
573 problems.
574
5758.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
576 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
577 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
578 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
579 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
580 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
581 (found by Aiviru).
582 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
583 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
584 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
585 case to work around for :/
586 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
587 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
588 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
589 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
590 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
591 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
592 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
593 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
594 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
595 Paskevich).
596 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
597 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
598 - update libptytty.
599 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
600 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
601 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
602 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
603 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
604 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
605 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
606 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
607 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
608
6098.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
610 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
611 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
612 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
613 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
614 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
615 Reported by Takano Akio.
616 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
617 reported by exg.
618 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
619 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
620 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
621 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
622
6238.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
624 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
625 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
626 circumstances (reported by exg).
627 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
628 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
629 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
630 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
631 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
632 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
633 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
634 - update to libptytty-1.0.
635 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
636 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
637 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
638 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
639 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
640 bug #143985).
641 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
642 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
643 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
644 - manpage fix by exg.
645
6467.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
647 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
648 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
649 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
650 it does! :->
651 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
652 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
653
6547.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
655 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
656 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
657 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
658 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
659 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
660 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
661 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
662 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
663 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
664 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
665 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
666 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
667 uppercase character.
668 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
669 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
670 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
671 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
672 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
673 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
674 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
675 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
676 generic osc_seq.
677 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
678 were invoked recursively.
679 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
680 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
681 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
682 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
683 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
684 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
685 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
686 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
687 by omatunto_.
688 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
689 follow C++ closely enough.
690 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
691 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
692 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
693 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
694
6957.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
696 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
697 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
698 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
699 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
700 click, and eats the click.
701 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
702 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
703 refresh bugs please.
704 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
705 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
706 improve size hint setting.
707 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
708 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
709 to correctly position their preedit window.
710 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
711 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
712 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
713 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
714 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
715 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
716 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
717 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
718 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
719 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
720 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
721 (reported by Paco-Paco).
722 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
723 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
724 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
725
7267.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006

21 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument. 730 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
731 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
732 relevant tab window.
733 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
734 (initial patch by hednod).
735 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
736 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
737 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
738 the benefit of automove-background.
739 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
740 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
22 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted. 741 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
