18TODO: move resources out of allocated 267.8
27TODO: zero scorllback buffer should free memory
28TODO: debian integration
29 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
30 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
31 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
32 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
33 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
34 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
35 terminal emulator (see man urxtvperl).
36 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
37 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
38 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
39 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
40 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
41 uppercase character.
42 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
43 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
44 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
45 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
46 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
47 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
48 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
49 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
50 generic osc_seq.
51 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
52 were invoked recursively.
53 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
54 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
55 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
56 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
57 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
58 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
59 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
60 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
61 by omatunto_.
62 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
63 follow C++ closely enough.
64 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
65 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
66 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
67 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.

697.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
70 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
71 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
72 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
73 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
74 click, and eats the click.
75 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
76 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
77 refresh bugs please.
78 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
79 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
80 improve size hint setting.
81 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
82 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
83 to correctly position their preedit window.
84 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
85 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
86 in empty spaces, but thats not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
87 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
88 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
89 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
90 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
91 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
92 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
93 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
94 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
95 (reported by Paco-Paco).
96 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
97 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
98 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.

1007.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
101 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
102 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
103 resource value.
104 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
105 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and keys events to th
106 relevant tab window.
107 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
108 (initial patch by hednod).
109 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
110 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
111 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
112 the benefit of automove-background.
113 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
114 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
115 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
116 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
117 __linux__.
118 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
119 the colour components.
120 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
121 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
122 - more colour rtt optimisations.
123 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
124 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
125 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
126 - minor libptytty update.
127
1287.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
129 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
130 detection:
131 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
132 - overlap detection was improved.
133 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
134 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
135 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
136 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
137 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
138 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
139 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
140 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
141 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
142 broken.
143 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
144 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
145 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
146 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
147 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
148 (patch by Paco-Paco).
149 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
150 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
151 an "[alpha]" prefix.
152 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
153 transparent. Long Live Xft!
154 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
155 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
156 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
157 on a pseudocolor screen.
158 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
159 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
160 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
161 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
162 - small configure updates.
163 - further RTT optimisations.
164 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
165 the debian package.
166 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
167 but much newer than the old one.
168
1697.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
170 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
171 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
172 - small configure updates for libptytty.
173 - fixed version options: line output.
174 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.

24 selection extension. 182 selection extension.
183 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
184 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
185 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
186 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
25 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences. 187 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
