40 - New 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
41 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
42 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
43 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
44 - the keysym-list extension has been removed, you can use the following
45 perl one-liner to expand your existing .Xdefaults file to do without it:
46 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
47 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
48 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
49 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
50
519.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
52 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
53 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
54 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
55 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
56 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
57 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
58 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
59 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
60 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
61 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
62 the CLIPBOARD selection.
63 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
64 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
65 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
66 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
67 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
68 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
69
709.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
71 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
72 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
73 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
74 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
75 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
76 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
77 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
78 function.
79 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
80 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
81
829.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
83 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
84
859.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
86 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
87 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
88 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
89 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
90 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
91 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
92 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
93 Münnich).
94 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
95 are disabled.
96
979.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
98 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
99 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
100 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
101 Hemmer).
102 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
103 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
104 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
105 patch by Jan Larres).
106 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
107 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
108 as diagnosed by clang.
109 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
110 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
111 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
112 nickfailure@gmail.com).
113 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
114 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
115 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
116 for details.
117 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
118 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
119 which show up in -help etc.
120 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
121 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
122 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
123 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
124 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
125 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
126 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
127 - remove support for libafterimage.
128 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
129 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
130 libptytty instead.
131 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
132 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
133 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
134 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
135 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
136
1379.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
138 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
139 thinks thats an error.
140 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
141 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
142 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
143 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
144 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
145 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
146 and destination in composite operations.
147 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
148 for tabs.
149 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
150 Sung Pae).
151 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
152 - fix -C option on solaris.
153
1549.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
155 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
156 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
157 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
158 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
159 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
160 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
161 to disable both scaling and tiling.
162 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
163 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
164 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
165 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
166 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
167 in the next release.
168 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
169 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
170 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
171 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
172 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
173 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
174 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
175 Filardo).
176 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
177 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
178 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
179 the cell size.
180 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
181 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
182 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
183 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
184 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
185 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
186 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
187 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
188 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
189 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
190 (Bob Farrell).
191 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
192 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
193 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
194 Pohlack).
195 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
196 Michael Stapelberg).
197 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
198 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
199 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
200 edge (Mikachu).
201 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
202 handle exceptions better.
203 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
204 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
205
2069.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
207 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
208 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
209 support the UTF8_STRING target.
210 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
211 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
212 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
213 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
214 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
215 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
216 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
217 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
218 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
219 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
220
2219.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
222 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
223 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
224 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
225 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
226 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
227 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
228 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
229 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
230 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
231 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
232 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
233 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
234 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
235 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
236 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
237 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
238 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
239 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
240 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
241 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
242 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
243 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
244 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
245 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
246 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
247 with gcc.
248 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
249 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
250 - document 'thickness' resource.
251 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
252 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
253 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
254 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
255 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
256 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
257 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
258 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
259 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
260 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
261 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
262
2639.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
264 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
265 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
266 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
267 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
268 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
269 failures with gcc 4.5.
270 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
271 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
272 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
273 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
274 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
275 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
276 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
277 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
278 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
279 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
280 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
281 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
282 and has fewer limitations.
283 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
284 startup for the upper left corner.
285 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
286 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
287 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
288 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
289 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
290 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
291 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
292 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
293 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
294 - fix build on XFree86.
295 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
296 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
297 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
298 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
299
3009.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
301 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
302 - the bestest release ever.

305 - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta).
306 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
307 - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta).
308 - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta).
309 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
310 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
311 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
312 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
313 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
314 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
315 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
316 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
317 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
318 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
319 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
320 characters other than first one in the selected cell
321 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
322 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
323 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
324 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
325 (found by Mikachu).
326 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
327 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
328 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
329 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
330 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
331 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
332 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
333 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
334 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
335 for 256 colours.
336 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
337 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
338 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
339 88*88 possible pairs.
340 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
341 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
342 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
343 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
344 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
345 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
346 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
347 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
348 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
349 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
350 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
351 backspacekey was given.
352 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
353 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
354 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
355 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
356 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
357 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
358
3599.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
360 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
361 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
362 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
363 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
364 Mikachu).
365 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
366 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
367 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
368 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
369 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
370 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
371 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
372 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
373 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
374 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
375 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
376 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
377 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
378 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
379 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
380 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
381 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
382 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
383 - update to libptytty 1.3.
384 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
385 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
386 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
387 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
388 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
389 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
390 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
391 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
392 in need of fixing. go figure.
393 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
394 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
395 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
396 the new ->selection_screen method.
397 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
398 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).

401 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.
402 - updated compose tables to unicode 5.2.0.
403
4049.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
405 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
406 - updates libev to 3.48.
407 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
408 when a window was closed.
409 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
410 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
411 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
412 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
413 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
414 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
415 makes copy&paste work.

417 no longer apply.
418 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.

422 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
423 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
424 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
425 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
426 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
427 the only known workaround.
428 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
429 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
430 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
431 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
432 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
433 disabling size hints.
434 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
435 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
436 as mouse reporting.
437 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
438 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
439 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
440 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
441 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
442 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
443 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
444 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
445 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
446 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
447 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
448 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
449
4509.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
451 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.

454 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
455 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
456 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
457 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
458 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
459 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
460 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
461 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
462 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
463 help working window managers as well.
464 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
465 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
466 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
467 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
468 from the toplevel window to the children.
469 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.

471 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
472 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
473
4749.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
475 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
476 - fix build with !xft.
477 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
478
4799.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
480 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
481 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
482 received" problem, again :)
483 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
484
4859.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
486 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
487 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
488 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
489 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
490 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
491 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
492 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
493 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
494 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
495 channels or background images are used.
496 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
497 till the first event arrives. or so.
498 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
499 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
500 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
501 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
502 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
503 resets the terminal.
504 - scrollbar code cleanups.
505 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
506 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
507 - updated to libev 3.0.
508
5098.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
510 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
511 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
512 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
513 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
514 would not clear it visually in another.
515 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
516 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
517 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
518 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
519 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
520 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
521
5228.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
523 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
524 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
525 effects.
526 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
527 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
528 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
529 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
530 text was visible.
531 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
532 some minor improvements.
533 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
534 display and not once per terminal window.
535 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
536
5378.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
538 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
539 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
540 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
541
5428.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
543 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
544 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
545 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
546 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
547 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
548 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
549 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
550
5518.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
552 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
553
5548.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
555 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
556 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
557 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
558 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
559 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
560 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
561 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
562 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
563 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
564 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
565 - parallel builds should work once more.
566
5678.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
568 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
569 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.

572 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
573 missing DISPLAY.
574 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
575 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
576 - updated io_manager.
577
5788.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
579 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
580 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not

590 digit (exg).
591 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
592 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
593 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
594 extension (tpope).
595 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
596 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
597 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
598 problems.
599
6008.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
601 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
602 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
603 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
604 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
605 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
606 (found by Aiviru).
607 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
608 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
609 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
610 case to work around for :/
611 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
612 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
613 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
614 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
615 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
616 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
617 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
618 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
619 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
620 Paskevich).
621 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
622 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
623 - update libptytty.
624 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
625 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
626 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
627 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
628 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
629 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
630 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
631 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
632 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
633
6348.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
635 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
636 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
637 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
638 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
639 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
640 Reported by Takano Akio.
641 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
642 reported by exg.
643 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
644 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
645 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
646 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
647
6488.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
649 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
650 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
651 circumstances (reported by exg).
652 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
653 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
654 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
655 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
656 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
657 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
658 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
659 - update to libptytty-1.0.
660 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
661 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
662 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
663 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
664 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
665 bug #143985).
666 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
667 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
668 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
669 - manpage fix by exg.

6717.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
672 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
673 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
674 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
675 it does! :->
676 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
677 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
678
6797.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
680 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
681 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
682 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
683 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
684 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
685 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
686 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
687 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
688 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
689 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
690 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
691 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
692 uppercase character.
24 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h. 693 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
694 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
695 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.

26 when pixmap transparency was enabled. 697 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
698 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to

707 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
708 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
709 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
710 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
711 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
712 by omatunto_.
713 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
714 follow C++ closely enough.
715 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
716 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
717 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
718 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
