20DO NOT USE, CURRENTLY TOTALLY BROKEN W.R.T. XFT FONTS
219.0
22 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
23 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
24 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintaienrs
25 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
26 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
27 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
28 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
29 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
30 till the first event arrives. or so.
31 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
32 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
33 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
34 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
35 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
36 resets the terminal.
37 - scrollbar code cleanups.
38
398.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
40 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
41 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
42 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
43 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
44 would not clear it visually in another.
45 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
46 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
47 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
48 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
49 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
50 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
51
528.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
53 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
54 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
55 effects.
56 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
57 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
58 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
59 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
60 text was visible.
61 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
62 some minor improvements.
63 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
64 display and not once per terminal window.
65 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
66
678.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
68 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
69 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
70 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
71
728.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
73 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
74 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
75 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
76 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
77 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
78 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
79 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
80
818.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
82 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
83
848.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
85 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
86 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
87 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
88 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
89 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
90 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
91 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
92 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internaly using :root op in pixmap
93 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
94 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
95 - parallel builds should work once more.
96
978.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
98 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
99 - fix possible race betwen visual bell and poweron.
100 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
101 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
102 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
103 missing DISPLAY.
104 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
105 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
106 - updated io_manager.
107
1088.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
109 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
110 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
111 /usr/X11R6/lib.
112 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
113 patch by Sasha Vasko.
114 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
115 (patch by Philip Paeps).
116 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
117 (patch by Mikachu).
118 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
119 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
120 digit (exg).
121 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
122 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
123 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
124 extension (tpope).
125 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
126 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
127 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
128 problems.
129
1308.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
131 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
132 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
133 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
134 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
135 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
136 (found by Aiviru).
137 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
138 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
139 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
140 case to work around for :/
141 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
142 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
143 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
144 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
145 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
146 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
147 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
148 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
149 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
150 Paskevich).
151 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
152 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
153 - update libptytty.
154 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
155 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
156 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
157 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
158 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
159 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
160 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
161 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
162 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
163
1648.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
165 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
166 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
167 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
168 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
169 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
170 Reported by Takano Akio.
171 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
172 reported by exg.
173 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
174 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
175 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
176 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
177
1788.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
179 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
180 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
181 circumstances (reported by exg).
182 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
183 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
184 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
185 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
186 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
187 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
188 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
189 - update to libptytty-1.0.
190 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
191 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
192 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
193 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
194 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
195 bug #143985).
196 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
197 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
198 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
199 - manpage fix by exg.
200
2017.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
202 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
203 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
204 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
205 it does! :->
206 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
207 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
208
2097.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
210 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
211 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
212 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
213 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
214 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
215 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
216 terminal emulator (see man urxtvperl).
217 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
218 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
219 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
220 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
221 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
222 uppercase character.
223 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
224 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
225 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
226 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
227 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
228 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
229 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
230 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
231 generic osc_seq.
232 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
233 were invoked recursively.
234 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
235 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
236 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
237 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
238 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
239 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
240 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
241 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
242 by omatunto_.
243 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
244 follow C++ closely enough.
245 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
246 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
247 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
248 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
