29TODO: implement smartcase-like search in searchable-scrollback 27 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
30TODO: check wether -depth works as resource 28 text was visible.
29 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
30 some minor improvements.
31 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
32 display and not once per terminal window.
33 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
34
358.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
36 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
37 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
38 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
39
408.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
41 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
42 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
43 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
44 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
45 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
46 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
47 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
48
498.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
50 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
51
528.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
53 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
54 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
55 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
56 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
57 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
58 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
59 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
60 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internaly using :root op in pixmap
61 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
62 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
63 - parallel builds should work once more.
64
658.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
66 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
67 - fix possible race betwen visual bell and poweron.
68 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
69 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
70 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
71 missing DISPLAY.
72 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
73 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
74 - updated io_manager.
75
768.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
77 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
78 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
79 /usr/X11R6/lib.
80 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
81 patch by Sasha Vasko.
82 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
83 (patch by Philip Paeps).
84 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
85 (patch by Mikachu).
86 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
87 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
88 digit (exg).
89 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
90 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
91 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
92 extension (tpope).
93 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
94 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
95 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
96 problems.
97
988.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
99 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
100 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
101 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
102 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
103 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
104 (found by Aiviru).
105 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
106 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
107 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
108 case to work around for :/
109 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
110 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
111 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
112 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
113 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
114 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
115 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
116 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
117 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
118 Paskevich).
119 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
120 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
121 - update libptytty.
122 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
123 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
124 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
125 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
126 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
127 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
128 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
129 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
130 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
131
1328.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
133 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
134 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
135 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
136 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
137 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
138 Reported by Takano Akio.
139 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
140 reported by exg.
141 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
142 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
143 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
144 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
145
1468.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
147 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
148 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
149 circumstances (reported by exg).
150 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
151 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
152 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
153 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
154 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
155 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
156 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
157 - update to libptytty-1.0.
158 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
159 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
160 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
161 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
162 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
163 bug #143985).
164 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
165 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
166 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
167 - manpage fix by exg.
168
1697.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
170 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
171 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
172 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
173 it does! :->
174 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
175 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
176
1777.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
178 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
179 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
180 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
181 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
182 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
183 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
184 terminal emulator (see man urxtvperl).
185 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
186 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
187 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
188 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
189 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
190 uppercase character.
31 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h. 191 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.

196 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
197 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
34 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more 198 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more

215 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
216 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
