47
48TODO: https://github.com/bbidulock/icewm/issues/492 urxvt wrongfully(?) needa configurenotify after mapwindow? also, black border?
49 - Key bindings specified with the -keysym option or with resources of
50 the form URxvt*keysym work again. Such resources, as opposed to
51 resources of the form URxvt.keysym, were not officially allowed but
52 accepted, so ignoring them is considered a regression.
53 - new option/resource -rm/rewrapMode, which sets the line rewrap
54 mode to auto, never or always.
55 - new option/resource -dpb/disablePasteBrackets, which can be used to
56 disable bracketed paste mode sequences, as more and more programs
57 abuse these sequences (typically in the name of security, but these
58 sequences are not improving security). Also, bracketed paste mode
59 is now under frills.
60 - enable confirm-paste extension by default, can be disabled by e.g.
61 URxvt.perl-ext: -confirm-paste
62 - The view_start perl method now scrolls to the bottom also when the
63 argument is greater than 0.
64 - eval scroll actions now scroll to the bottom when scrolling down and
65 there are less lines to scroll than the ones requested (reported by
66 Stephen Talley).
67 - if urxvt cannot detect a good estimate for font width (because a font does
68 not contain latin characters at all for example), it will now fall
69 back to xft's max_advance_width, which works well with some fonts. It
70 currently will warn about this.
71 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat
72 them as zero-width characters.
73 - change combining character architecture to allow fonts to handle
74 combining sequences on their own. This could allow future renderers
75 to be more intelligent about these sequences.
76 - use the previous enhancement to allow unicode characters outside of the
77 BMP to be rendered even without --enable-unicode3, as long as an
78 xft with the character is configured.
79 It's recommended to stay with disabled unicode3 even more now.
80 - freetype/xft have been verified to return nonsensical offsets for
81 combining characters. urxvt tries to compensate to some extent,
82 but diacritics will be slightly off in many cases, and far off in
83 some cases (e.g. input mono).
84 - when checking for overlap/careful handling, take non-basefont
85 character shifts into account.
86 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions.
87 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive
88 loading.
89 - update precompose table to unicode 13.0.
90 - update charset conversion tables to perl 5.32 (this only affected
91 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode).
92 - unicode characters > 0x100000 were not handled correctly w.r.t.
93 font rendering.
94 - replace bitstream vera by dejavu sans, as it has replaced the former
95 almost everywhere.
96 - shave off over 1K of code size from urclock by replacing the sine table
97 with a slightly less accurate fixed point approximation.
98
999.26 Fri May 14 19:14:14 CEST 2021
100 - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly
101 not packaged.
102
1039.25 Fri May 14 15:51:36 CEST 2021
104 - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to
105 remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as
106 urclock.
107 - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105,
108 freebsd bug #234276.
109 - do not destruct perl on exit anymore: this might fail for a variety of
110 reasons, and takes unnecessary time.
111 - remove any macros from urxvtperl manpage(s), should fix debian
112 bug 858385.
113 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
114 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
115 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
116 ext if any bg image resource/option is present (for OSC sequences to
117 work you need to enable it explicitly). The old bg image
118 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
119 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
120 - confirm-paste now checks for any ctlchars, not just newlines.
121 - searchable scrollback will now ignore bracketed paste mode sequences
122 (prompted by Daniel Gröber's patch).
123 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in
124 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit
125 program can be used as a substitute).
126 - perl didn't parse rgba colours specified as an array correctly,
127 only allowing 0 and 100% intensity for each component (this affected
128 fill and tint).
129 - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle
130 multipart resources (such as "*background.expr"), for the benefit
131 of autoloading perl extensions.
132 - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security
133 implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5,
134 and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known.
135 - work around API change breakage in perl 5.28, based on a patch by
136 Roman Bogorodskiy.
137 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
138 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
139 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
140 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
141 - xterm SGR mouse mode.
142 - implement DECRQM. Patch by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
143 - add missing color index parameter to OSC 4 response. Patch
144 by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
145 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
146 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
147 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
148 - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression.
149 - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video
150 is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it
151 is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler).
152 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
153 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
154 - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions
155 (patch by Rastislav Barlik).
156 - fix a whole slew of const sillyness, unfortunately forced upon
157 us by ISO C++.
158 - update to libecb 0x00010006.
159 - disable all thread support in ecb.h as we presumably don't need it.
160 - slightly improve Makefile source dependencies.
161 - work around bugs in newer Pod::Xhtml versions (flags incorrect formatting codes
162 in xhtml/html sections but does not interpret correct ones).
163
1649.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
165 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
166 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
167 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
168 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
169 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
170 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
171 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
172 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
173 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
174 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
175 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
176 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
177 Devin J. Pohly).
178 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
179 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
180 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
181 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
182 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
183 action now properly rebinds the key.
184 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
185 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
186 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
187 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
188 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
189 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
190 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
191 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
192 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
193 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
194 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
195 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
196 window.
197 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
198 to a key combination.
199 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
200 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
201 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
202
2039.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
204 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
205 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
206 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
207 same height but different ascent.
208 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
209 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
210 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
211 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
212 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
213 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
214 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
215 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
216 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
217 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
218 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
219 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
220 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
221 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
222 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
223 but not documented.
224 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
225 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
226 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
227 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
228 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
229 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
230 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
231 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
232 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
233 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
234 associated to a matched pattern.
235 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
236 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
237 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
238 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
239 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
240 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
241 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
242 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
243 by Thomas Otto).
244 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
245 way properly.
246 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
247 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
248 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
249 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
250 #830236.
251 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
252 window/popup has been destroyed already.
253 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
254 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
255 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
256 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
257 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
258 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
259 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
260 simpler and actually more correct code.
261 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
262 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
263 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
264 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
265 frame buffers).
266 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
267 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
268 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
269
2709.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
271 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
272 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
273 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
274 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
275 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
276 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
277 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
278 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
279 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
280 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
281 the CLIPBOARD selection.
282 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
283 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
284 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
285 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
286 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
287 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
288
2899.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
290 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
291 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
292 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
293 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
294 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
295 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
296 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
297 function.
298 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
299 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
300
3019.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
302 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
303
3049.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
305 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
306 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
307 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
308 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
309 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
310 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
311 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
312 Münnich).
313 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
314 are disabled.
315
3169.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
317 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
318 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
319 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
320 Hemmer).
321 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
322 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
323 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
324 patch by Jan Larres).
325 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
326 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
327 as diagnosed by clang.
328 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
329 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
330 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
331 nickfailure@gmail.com).
332 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
333 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
334 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
335 for details.
336 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
337 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
338 which show up in -help etc.
339 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
340 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
341 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
342 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
343 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
344 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
345 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
346 - remove support for libafterimage.
347 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
348 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
349 libptytty instead.
350 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
351 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
352 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
353 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
354 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
355
3569.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
357 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
358 thinks thats an error.
359 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
360 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
361 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
362 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
363 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
364 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
365 and destination in composite operations.
366 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
367 for tabs.
368 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
369 Sung Pae).
370 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
371 - fix -C option on solaris.
372
3739.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
374 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
375 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
376 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
377 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
378 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
379 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
380 to disable both scaling and tiling.
381 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
382 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
383 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
384 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
385 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
386 in the next release.
387 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
388 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
389 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
390 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
391 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
392 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
393 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
394 Filardo).
395 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
396 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
397 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
398 the cell size.
399 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
400 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
401 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
402 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
403 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
404 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
405 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
406 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
407 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
408 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
409 (Bob Farrell).
410 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
411 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
412 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
413 Pohlack).
414 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
415 Michael Stapelberg).
416 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
417 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
418 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
419 edge (Mikachu).
420 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
421 handle exceptions better.
422 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
423 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
424
4259.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
426 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
427 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
428 support the UTF8_STRING target.
429 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
430 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
431 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
432 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
433 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
434 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
435 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
436 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
437 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
438 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
439
4409.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
441 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
442 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
443 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
444 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
445 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
446 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
447 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
448 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
449 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
450 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
451 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
452 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
453 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
454 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
455 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
456 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
457 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
458 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
459 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
460 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
461 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
462 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
463 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
464 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
465 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
466 with gcc.
467 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
468 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
469 - document 'thickness' resource.
470 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
471 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
472 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
473 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
474 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
475 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
476 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
477 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
478 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
479 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
480 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
481
4829.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
483 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
484 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
485 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
486 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
487 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
488 failures with gcc 4.5.
489 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
490 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
491 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
492 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
493 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
494 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
495 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
496 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
497 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
498 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
499 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
500 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
501 and has fewer limitations.
502 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
503 startup for the upper left corner.
504 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
505 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
506 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
507 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
508 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
509 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
510 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
511 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
512 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
513 - fix build on XFree86.
514 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
515 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
516 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
517 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
518
5199.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
520 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
521 - the bestest release ever.

524 - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta).
525 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
526 - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta).
527 - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta).
528 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).

530 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
531 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
532 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
533 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
534 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
535 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
536 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
537 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
538 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
539 characters other than first one in the selected cell
540 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
541 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
542 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
543 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
544 (found by Mikachu).
545 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
546 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
547 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
548 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
549 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
550 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
551 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
552 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
553 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
554 for 256 colours.
555 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
556 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
557 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
558 88*88 possible pairs.
559 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
560 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
561 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
562 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
563 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
564 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
565 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
566 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
567 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
568 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
569 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
570 backspacekey was given.
571 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
572 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
573 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
574 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
575 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
576 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
577
5789.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
579 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
580 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
581 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
582 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
583 Mikachu).
584 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
585 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
586 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
587 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
588 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
589 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
590 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
591 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
592 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
593 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
594 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
595 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
596 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
597 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
598 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
599 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
600 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
601 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
602 - update to libptytty 1.3.
603 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
604 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
605 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
606 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
607 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
608 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
609 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
610 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
611 in need of fixing. go figure.
612 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
613 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
614 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
615 the new ->selection_screen method.
616 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
617 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).

619 - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection.
620 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.

624 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
625 - updates libev to 3.48.
626 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
627 when a window was closed.
628 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
629 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
630 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
631 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
632 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
633 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
634 makes copy&paste work.
635 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
636 no longer apply.
637 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
638 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
639 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
640 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
641 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
642 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
643 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
644 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
645 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
646 the only known workaround.
647 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
648 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
649 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
650 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
651 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
652 disabling size hints.
653 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
654 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
655 as mouse reporting.
656 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
657 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
658 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
659 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
660 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
661 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
662 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
663 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
664 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
665 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
666 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
667 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
668
6699.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
670 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
671 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
672 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
673 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
674 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
675 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
676 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
677 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
678 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
679 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
680 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
681 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
682 help working window managers as well.
683 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
684 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
685 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
686 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
687 from the toplevel window to the children.
688 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
689 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
690 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.

694 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
695 - fix build with !xft.
696 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
697
6989.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
699 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
700 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
701 received" problem, again :)
702 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
703
7049.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
705 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
706 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
707 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
708 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
709 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
710 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
711 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
712 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
713 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
714 channels or background images are used.
715 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
716 till the first event arrives. or so.
717 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
718 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
719 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
720 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
721 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
722 resets the terminal.
723 - scrollbar code cleanups.
724 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
725 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
726 - updated to libev 3.0.
727
7288.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
729 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
730 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
731 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
732 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
733 would not clear it visually in another.
734 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
735 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
736 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
737 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
738 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
739 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
740
7418.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
742 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
743 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
744 effects.
745 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
746 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
747 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
748 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
749 text was visible.
750 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
751 some minor improvements.
752 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
753 display and not once per terminal window.
754 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
755
7568.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
757 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
758 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
759 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
760
7618.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
762 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
763 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
764 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
765 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
766 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
767 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
768 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
769
7708.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
771 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
772
7738.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
774 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
775 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
776 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
777 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
778 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
779 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
780 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
781 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
782 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
783 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
784 - parallel builds should work once more.
785
7868.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
787 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
788 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
789 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
790 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
791 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
792 missing DISPLAY.
793 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
794 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
795 - updated io_manager.
796
7978.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
798 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
799 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
800 /usr/X11R6/lib.
801 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
802 patch by Sasha Vasko.
803 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
804 (patch by Philip Paeps).
805 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
806 (patch by Mikachu).
807 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
808 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
809 digit (exg).
810 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
811 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
812 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
813 extension (tpope).
814 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
815 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
816 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
817 problems.
818
8198.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
820 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
821 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
822 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
823 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
824 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
825 (found by Aiviru).
826 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
827 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
828 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
829 case to work around for :/
830 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
831 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
832 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
833 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
834 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
835 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
836 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
837 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
838 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
839 Paskevich).
840 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
841 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
842 - update libptytty.
843 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
844 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
845 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
846 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
847 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
848 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
849 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
850 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
851 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
852

858 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
859 Reported by Takano Akio.
860 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
861 reported by exg.

871 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
872 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
873 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
874 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
875 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
876 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
877 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
878 - update to libptytty-1.0.
879 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
880 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
881 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
882 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
883 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
884 bug #143985).
885 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
886 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
887 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.

892 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
893 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
894 it does! :->
895 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
896 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
