+8.0
+	- specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
+          basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
+        - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
+	- fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
+	- give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
+          corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
+        - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
+          working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
+          bug #143985).
+        - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.

+7.9  Mon Aug  7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
+        - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
+          + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
+	- fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
+          it does! :->
+	- rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
+        - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
+
+7.8  Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
+	- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
+          earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
+          .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
+          resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
+          resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
+        - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
+          terminal emulator (see man urxtvperl).
+        - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
+          Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
+        - the "depth" resource is now respected.
+        - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
+          to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
+          uppercase character.
 	- add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
+        - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
+          a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
         - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
           when pixmap transparency was enabled.
+        - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
+          match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
 	- moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
           generic osc_seq.

         - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
           follow C++ closely enough.
