318.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
32 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
33 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
34 effects.
35 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
36 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
37 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
38 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
39 text was visible.
40 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
41 some minor improvements.
42 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
43 display and not once per terminal window.
44 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
45
468.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
47 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
48 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
49 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
50
518.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
52 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
53 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
54 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
55 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
56 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
57 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
58 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
59
608.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
61 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
62
638.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
64 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
65 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
66 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
67 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
68 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
69 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
70 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
71 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internaly using :root op in pixmap
72 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
73 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
74 - parallel builds should work once more.
75
768.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
77 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
78 - fix possible race betwen visual bell and poweron.
79 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
80 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
81 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or

90 /usr/X11R6/lib.
91 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
92 patch by Sasha Vasko.
93 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
94 (patch by Philip Paeps).
95 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
96 (patch by Mikachu).
97 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
98 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
99 digit (exg).
100 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
101 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
102 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
103 extension (tpope).
104 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
105 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
106 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
107 problems.
108
1098.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
110 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
111 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
112 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
113 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
114 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
115 (found by Aiviru).
116 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
117 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
118 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
119 case to work around for :/
120 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
121 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
122 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
123 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
124 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
125 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
126 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
127 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
128 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
129 Paskevich).
130 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
131 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
132 - update libptytty.
133 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
134 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
135 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
136 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
137 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
138 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
139 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
140 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
141 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
142
1438.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
144 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
145 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
146 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
147 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
148 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
149 Reported by Takano Akio.
150 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
151 reported by exg.
152 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
153 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
154 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
155 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
156
1578.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
158 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
159 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
160 circumstances (reported by exg).
161 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
162 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
163 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
164 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
165 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
166 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
167 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
168 - update to libptytty-1.0.
169 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
170 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
171 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
172 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
173 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
174 bug #143985).
175 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
176 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
177 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
178 - manpage fix by exg.
179
1807.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
181 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
182 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
183 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
184 it does! :->
185 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
186 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
