14 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes. 16 - use double-buffered drawing for xft fonts only. On many driver/hardware
15 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken). 17 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
16 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer. 18 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
17 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number. 19 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
18 - small configure updates. 20 click.
19 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support. 21 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
20 - support rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa, #argb, #aarrggbb and 22 refresh bugs please.
21 #aaaarrrrggggbbbb (yes, it did hurt) colour "names". 23 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
22 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100% 24 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
23 transparent. Long Live Xft! 25 improve size hint setting.
24 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use 26 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
25 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly. 27 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
28 to correctly position their preedit window.
29 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
30 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
31 in empts spaces, but thats not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
32 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
33 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
34 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.

37 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
38 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
39 resource value.
40 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
41 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and keys events to th
42 relevant tab window.
43 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
44 (initial patch by hednod).
45 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
46 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
47 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
48 the benefit of automove-background.
49 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
50 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
51 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
52 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
53 __linux__.
54 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
55 the colour components.
56 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
57 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
58 - more colour rtt optimisations.
59 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
60 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
61 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
62 - minor libptytty update.
