22 23
238.0 24 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
25 was broken.
26 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
27 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
28 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
29 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
30 and destination in composite operations.
31 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
32 for tabs.
33 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
34 Sung Pae).
35
369.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
37 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
38 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
39 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
40 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
41 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
42 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
43 to disable both scaling and tiling.
44 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
45 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
46 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
47 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
48 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
49 in the next release.
50 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
51 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
52 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
53 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
54 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
55 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
56 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
57 Filardo).
58 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
59 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
60 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
61 the cell size.
62 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
63 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
64 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
65 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
66 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
67 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
68 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
69 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
70 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
71 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
72 (Bob Farrell).
73 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
74 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
75 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
76 Pohlack).
77 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
78 Michael Stapelberg).
79 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
80 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
81 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
82 edge (Mikachu).
83 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
84 handle exceptions better.
85 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
86 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
87
889.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
89 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
90 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
91 support the UTF8_STRING target.
92 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
93 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
94 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
95 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
96 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
97 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
98 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
99 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
100 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
101 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
102
1039.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
104 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
105 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
106 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
107 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
108 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
109 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
110 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
111 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
112 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
113 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
114 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
115 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
116 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
117 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
118 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
119 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
120 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
121 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
122 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
123 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
124 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
125 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
126 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
127 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
128 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
129 with gcc.
130 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
131 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
132 - document 'thickness' resource.
133 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
134 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
135 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
136 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
137 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
138 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
139 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
140 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
141 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
142 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
143 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
144
1459.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
146 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
147 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
148 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
149 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
150 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
151 failures with gcc 4.5.
152 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
153 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
154 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
155 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
156 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
157 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
158 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
159 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
160 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
161 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
162 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
163 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
164 and has fewer limitations.
165 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
166 startup for the upper left corner.
167 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
168 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
169 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
170 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
171 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
172 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
173 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
174 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
175 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
176 - fix build on XFree86.
177 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
178 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
179 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
180 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
181
1829.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
183 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
184 - the bestest release ever.
185 - it was verified that urxvt handles µ and μ correctly.
186 - add support for blending and blurring with XRender (Emanuele Giaquinta).
187 - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta).
188 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
189 - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta).
190 - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta).
191 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
192 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
193 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
194 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
195 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
196 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
197 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
198 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
199 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
200 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
201 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
202 characters other than first one in the selected cell
203 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
204 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
205 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
206 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
207 (found by Mikachu).
208 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
209 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
210 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
211 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
212 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
213 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
214 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
215 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
216 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
217 for 256 colours.
218 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
219 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
220 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
221 88*88 possible pairs.
222 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
223 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
224 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
225 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
226 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
227 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
228 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
229 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
230 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
231 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
232 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
233 backspacekey was given.
234 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
235 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
236 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
237 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
238 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
239 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
240
2419.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
242 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
243 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
244 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
245 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
246 Mikachu).
247 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
248 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
249 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
250 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
251 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
252 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
253 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
254 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
255 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
256 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
257 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
258 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
259 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
260 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
261 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
262 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
263 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
264 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
265 - update to libptytty 1.3.
266 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
267 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
268 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
269 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
270 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
271 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
272 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
273 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
274 in need of fixing. go figure.
275 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
276 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
277 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
278 the new ->selection_screen method.
279 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
280 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
281 - fix printpipe data output (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
282 - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection.
283 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.
284 - updated compose tables to unicode 5.2.0.
285
2869.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
287 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
288 - updates libev to 3.48.
289 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
290 when a window was closed.
291 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
292 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
293 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
294 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
295 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
296 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
297 makes copy&paste work.
298 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
299 no longer apply.
300 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
301 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
302 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
303 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
304 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
305 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
306 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
307 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
308 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
309 the only known workaround.
310 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
311 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
312 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
313 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
314 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
315 disabling size hints.
316 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
317 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
318 as mouse reporting.
319 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
320 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
321 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
322 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
323 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
324 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
325 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
326 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
327 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
328 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
329 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
330 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
331
3329.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
333 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
334 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
335 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
336 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
337 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
338 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
339 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
340 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
341 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
342 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
343 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
344 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
345 help working window managers as well.
346 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
347 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
348 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
349 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
350 from the toplevel window to the children.
351 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
352 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
353 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
354 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
355
3569.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
357 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
358 - fix build with !xft.
359 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
360
3619.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
362 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
363 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
364 received" problem, again :)
365 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
366
3679.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
368 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
369 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
370 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
371 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
372 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
373 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
374 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
375 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
376 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
377 channels or background images are used.
378 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
379 till the first event arrives. or so.
380 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
381 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
382 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
383 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
384 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
385 resets the terminal.
386 - scrollbar code cleanups.
387 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
388 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
389 - updated to libev 3.0.
390
3918.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
392 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
393 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
394 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
395 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
396 would not clear it visually in another.
397 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
398 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
399 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
400 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
401 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
402 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
403
4048.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
405 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
406 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
407 effects.
408 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
409 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
410 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
411 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
412 text was visible.
413 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
414 some minor improvements.
415 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
416 display and not once per terminal window.
417 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
