499.31 Mon 02 Jan 2023 18:13:16 CET
50 - implement a fix for CVE-2022-4170 (reported and analyzed by David Leadbeater).
51 While present in version 9.30, it should not be exploitable. It is exploitable
52 in versions 9.25 and 9.26, at least, and allows anybody controlling output to
53 the terminal to execute arbitrary code in the urxvt process.
54 - the background extension no longer requires off focus fading support
55 to be compiled in.
56 - the confirm-paste extension now offers a choice betwene pasting the original
57 or a sanitized version, and also frees up memory used to store the paste text
58 immediately.
59 - fix compiling without frills.
60 - fix rewrapMode: never.
61 - fix regression that caused urxvt to no longer emit responses
62 to OSC color queries other than OSC 4 ones.
63 - fix regression that caused urxvt to no longer process OSC 705.
64 - restore CENTURY to be 1900 to "improve" year parsing in urclock (or at
65 least go back to the old interpretation) (based on an analysis
66 by Tommy Pettersson).
67 - exec_async (used e.g. by the matcher extension to spawn processes) now
68 sets the URXVT_EXT_WINDOWID variable to the window id of the terminal.
69 - implement -fps option/refreshRate resource to change the default 60 Hz
70 maximum refresh limiter. I always wanted an fps option, but had to
71 wait for a user requesting it.
72 - new clickthrough extension.
73 - perl now also requires Xext.
74 - X region and shape extension functionality has been exposed to perl
75 extensions.
76 - RENDER extension no longer depends on ENABLE_XIM_ONTHESPOT.
77
789.30 Sat 27 Nov 2021 21:07:09 CET
79 - the background extension did not initialise properly when automatically
80 loaded via the OSC.
81 - new "on_attach" hook type implemented, to initialise late-loading
82 extensions.
83
849.29 Mon 22 Nov 2021 18:07:14 CET
85 - libptytty (http://dist.schmorp.de/libptytty/) is now a required
86 external dependency.
87 - enable confirm-paste extension by default, can be disabled by e.g.
88 URxvt.perl-ext: -confirm-paste
89 - Key bindings specified with the -keysym option or with resources of
90 the form URxvt*keysym work again. Such resources, as opposed to
91 resources of the form URxvt.keysym, were not officially allowed but
92 accepted, so ignoring them is considered a regression.
93 - new option/resource -rm/rewrapMode, which sets the line rewrap
94 mode to auto, never or always.
95 - new option/resource -dpb/disablePasteBrackets, which can be used to
96 disable bracketed paste mode sequences, as more and more programs
97 abuse these sequences (typically in the name of security, but these
98 sequences are not improving security). Also, bracketed paste mode
99 is now under frills.
100 - add manpage for urclock.
101 - confirm-paste wrongly considered brackets as ctrlchars (patch by
102 Jakub Wilk, debian bug #995244).
103 - if urxvt cannot detect a good estimate for font width (because a font does
104 not contain latin characters at all for example), it will now fall
105 back to xft's max_advance_width, which works well with some fonts. It
106 currently will warn about this.
107 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat
108 them as zero-width characters.
109 - change combining character architecture to allow fonts to handle
110 combining sequences on their own. This could allow future renderers
111 to be more intelligent about these sequences.
112 - use the previous enhancement to allow unicode characters outside of the
113 BMP to be rendered even without --enable-unicode3, as long as an
114 xft with the character is configured.
115 It's recommended to stay with disabled unicode3 even more now.
116 - freetype/xft have been verified to return nonsensical offsets for
117 combining characters. urxvt tries to compensate to some extent,
118 but diacritics will be slightly off in many cases, and far off in
119 some cases (e.g. input mono).
120 - when checking for overlap/careful handling, take non-basefont
121 character shifts into account.
122 - extensions can now request autoloading on OSC and Perl OSC sequences,
123 implement this for the background, clipboard-osc and overlay-osc
124 extensions.
125 - the background extension will now be autoloaded when the OSC 20 or 705
126 sequence is received.
127 - added OSC 776 sequence to return character cell width, height and font
128 ascent, which is useful when using urxvt as slave to calculate window
129 size form or to row/column count.
130 - matcher extension documentation now points out some requirements for
131 regular expressions. the default url matching regex will now try
132 to match IRLs in addition to URLs.
133 - The view_start perl method now scrolls to the bottom also when the
134 argument is greater than 0.
135 - eval scroll actions now scroll to the bottom when scrolling down and
136 there are less lines to scroll than the ones requested (reported by
137 Stephen Talley).
138 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions.
139 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive
140 loading.
141 - update precompose table to unicode 13.0.
142 - update charset conversion tables to perl 5.32 (this only affected
143 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode).
144 - unicode characters > 0x100000 were not handled correctly w.r.t.
145 font rendering.
146 - replace bitstream vera by dejavu sans, as it has replaced the former
147 almost everywhere.
148 - urxvt will now try tic -x first and only fall back to tic without -x
149 when tic -x fails.
150 - fix urclock not erasing the old date on the clock face, causing
151 overdraw, plus a host of other small fixes and improvements.
152 - shave off over 1K of code size from urclock by replacing the sine table
153 with a slightly less accurate fixed point approximation.
154 - do not specify indentation with =over in pod, this is no longer
155 needed with semi-modern pod tools and gives the formatter more
156 stylistic freedom.
157 - background extension did not set the "size-sensitive" flag
158 when repeat mode wasn't normal.
159 - extensions are now subjected to "use strict 'subs'".
160 - avoid crashing when xft successfully opens a font but then somehow
161 can't lock the face.
162 - locale_decode/encode api methods now pass through undef unchanged.
163 - fix undefined behaviour in the perl hook function, as diagnosed by clang.
164
1659.26 Fri May 14 19:14:14 CEST 2021
166 - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly
167 not packaged.
168
1699.25 Fri May 14 15:51:36 CEST 2021
170 - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to
171 remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as
172 urclock.
173 - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105,
174 freebsd bug #234276.
175 - do not destruct perl on exit anymore: this might fail for a variety of
176 reasons, and takes unnecessary time.
177 - remove any macros from urxvtperl manpage(s), should fix debian
178 bug 858385.
179 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
180 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
181 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
182 ext if any bg image resource/option is present (for OSC sequences to
183 work you need to enable it explicitly). The old bg image
184 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
185 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
186 - confirm-paste now checks for any ctlchars, not just newlines.
187 - searchable scrollback will now ignore bracketed paste mode sequences
188 (prompted by Daniel Gröber's patch).
189 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in
190 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit
191 program can be used as a substitute).
192 - perl didn't parse rgba colours specified as an array correctly,
193 only allowing 0 and 100% intensity for each component (this affected
194 fill and tint).
195 - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle
196 multipart resources (such as "*background.expr"), for the benefit
197 of autoloading perl extensions.
198 - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security
199 implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5,
200 and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known.
201 - work around API change breakage in perl 5.28, based on a patch by
202 Roman Bogorodskiy.
203 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
204 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
205 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
206 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
207 - xterm SGR mouse mode.
208 - implement DECRQM. Patch by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
209 - add missing color index parameter to OSC 4 response. Patch
210 by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
211 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
212 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
213 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
214 - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression.
215 - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video
216 is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it
217 is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler).
218 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
219 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
220 - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions
221 (patch by Rastislav Barlik).
222 - fix a whole slew of const sillyness, unfortunately forced upon
223 us by ISO C++.
224 - update to libecb 0x00010006.
225 - disable all thread support in ecb.h as we presumably don't need it.
226 - slightly improve Makefile source dependencies.
227 - work around bugs in newer Pod::Xhtml versions (flags incorrect formatting codes
228 in xhtml/html sections but does not interpret correct ones).
229
2309.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
231 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
232 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
233 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
234 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
235 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
236 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
237 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
238 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
239 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
240 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
241 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
242 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
243 Devin J. Pohly).
244 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
245 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
246 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
247 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
248 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
249 action now properly rebinds the key.
250 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
251 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
252 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
253 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
254 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
255 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
256 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
257 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
258 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
259 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
260 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
261 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
262 window.
263 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
264 to a key combination.
265 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
266 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
267 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
268 - this version has ben verified to work with perl 5.8.3.
269
2709.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
271 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
272 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
273 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
274 same height but different ascent.
275 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
276 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
277 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
278 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
279 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
280 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
281 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
282 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
283 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
284 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
285 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
286 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
287 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
288 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
289 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
290 but not documented.
291 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
292 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
293 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
294 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
295 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
296 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
297 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
298 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
299 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
300 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
301 associated to a matched pattern.
302 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
303 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
304 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
305 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
306 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
307 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
308 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
309 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
310 by Thomas Otto).
311 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
312 way properly.
313 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
314 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
315 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
316 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
317 #830236.
318 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
319 window/popup has been destroyed already.
320 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
321 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
322 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
323 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
324 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
325 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
326 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
327 simpler and actually more correct code.
328 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
329 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
330 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
331 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
332 frame buffers).
333 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
334 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
335 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
336
3379.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
338 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
339 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
340 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
341 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
342 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
343 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
344 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
345 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
346 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
347 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
348 the CLIPBOARD selection.
349 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
350 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
351 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
352 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
353 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
354 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
355
3569.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
357 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
358 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
359 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
360 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
361 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
362 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
363 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
364 function.
365 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
366 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
367
3689.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
369 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
370
3719.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
372 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
373 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
374 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
375 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
376 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
377 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
378 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
379 Münnich).
380 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
381 are disabled.
382
3839.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
384 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
385 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
386 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
387 Hemmer).
388 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
389 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
390 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
391 patch by Jan Larres).
392 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
393 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
394 as diagnosed by clang.
395 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
396 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
397 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
398 nickfailure@gmail.com).
399 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
400 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
401 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
402 for details.
403 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
404 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
405 which show up in -help etc.
406 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
407 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
408 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
409 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
410 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
411 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
412 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
413 - remove support for libafterimage.
414 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
415 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
416 libptytty instead.
417 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
418 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
419 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
420 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
421 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
422
4239.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
424 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
425 thinks thats an error.
426 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
427 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
428 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
429 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
430 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
431 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
432 and destination in composite operations.
433 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
434 for tabs.
435 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
436 Sung Pae).
437 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
438 - fix -C option on solaris.
439
4409.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
441 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
442 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
443 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
444 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
445 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
446 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
447 to disable both scaling and tiling.
448 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
449 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
450 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
451 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
452 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
453 in the next release.
454 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
455 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
456 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
457 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
458 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
459 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
460 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
461 Filardo).
462 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
463 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
464 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
465 the cell size.
466 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
467 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
468 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
469 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
470 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
471 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
472 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
473 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
474 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
475 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
476 (Bob Farrell).
477 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
478 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
479 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
480 Pohlack).
481 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
482 Michael Stapelberg).
483 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
484 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
485 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
486 edge (Mikachu).
487 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
488 handle exceptions better.
489 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
490 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
491
4929.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
493 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
494 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
495 support the UTF8_STRING target.
496 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
497 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
498 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
499 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
500 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
501 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
502 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
503 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
504 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
505 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
506
5079.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
508 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
509 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
510 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
511 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
512 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
513 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
514 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
515 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
516 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
517 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
518 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
519 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
520 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
521 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
522 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
523 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
524 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
525 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
526 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
527 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
528 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
529 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
530 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
531 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
532 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
533 with gcc.
534 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
535 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
536 - document 'thickness' resource.
537 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
538 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
539 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
540 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
541 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
542 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
543 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
544 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
545 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
546 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
547 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
548
5499.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
550 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
551 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
552 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
553 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
554 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
555 failures with gcc 4.5.
556 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
557 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
558 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
559 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
560 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
561 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
562 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
563 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
564 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
565 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
566 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
567 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
568 and has fewer limitations.
569 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
570 startup for the upper left corner.
571 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
572 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
573 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
574 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
575 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
576 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
577 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
578 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
579 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
580 - fix build on XFree86.
581 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
582 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
583 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
584 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
585
5869.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
587 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
588 - the bestest release ever.

591 - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta).
592 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
593 - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta).
594 - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta).
595 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
596 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
597 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
598 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
599 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
600 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
601 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
602 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
603 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
604 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
605 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
606 characters other than first one in the selected cell
607 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
608 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
609 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
610 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
611 (found by Mikachu).
612 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
613 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
614 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
615 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
616 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
617 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
618 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
619 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
620 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
621 for 256 colours.
622 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
623 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
624 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
625 88*88 possible pairs.
626 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
627 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
628 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
629 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
630 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
631 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
632 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
633 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
634 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
635 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
636 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
637 backspacekey was given.
638 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
639 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
640 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
641 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
642 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
643 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
644
6459.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
646 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
647 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
648 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
649 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
650 Mikachu).
651 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
652 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
653 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
654 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
655 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
656 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
657 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
658 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
659 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
660 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
661 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
662 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
663 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
664 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
665 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
666 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
667 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
668 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
669 - update to libptytty 1.3.
670 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
671 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
672 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
673 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
674 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
675 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
676 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
677 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
678 in need of fixing. go figure.
679 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
680 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
681 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
682 the new ->selection_screen method.
683 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
684 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).

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

691 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
692 - updates libev to 3.48.
693 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
694 when a window was closed.
695 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
696 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
697 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
698 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
699 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
700 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
701 makes copy&paste work.
702 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
703 no longer apply.
704 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
705 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
706 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
707 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
708 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
709 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
710 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
711 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
712 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
713 the only known workaround.
714 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
715 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
716 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
717 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
718 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
719 disabling size hints.
720 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
721 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
722 as mouse reporting.
723 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
724 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
725 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
726 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
727 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
728 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
729 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
730 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
731 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
732 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
733 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
734 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
735
7369.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
737 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
738 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
739 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
740 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
741 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
742 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
743 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
744 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
745 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
746 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
747 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
748 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
749 help working window managers as well.
750 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
751 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
752 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
753 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
754 from the toplevel window to the children.
755 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
756 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
757 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.

761 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
762 - fix build with !xft.
763 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
764
7659.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
766 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
767 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
768 received" problem, again :)
769 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
770
7719.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
772 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
773 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
774 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
775 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
776 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
777 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
778 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
779 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
780 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
781 channels or background images are used.
782 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
783 till the first event arrives. or so.
784 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
785 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
786 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
787 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
788 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
789 resets the terminal.
790 - scrollbar code cleanups.
791 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
792 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
793 - updated to libev 3.0.
794
7958.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
796 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
797 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
798 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
799 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
800 would not clear it visually in another.
801 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
802 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
803 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
804 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
805 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
806 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
807
8088.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
809 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
810 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
811 effects.
812 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
813 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
814 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
815 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
816 text was visible.
817 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
818 some minor improvements.
819 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
820 display and not once per terminal window.
821 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
822
8238.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
824 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
825 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
826 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
827
8288.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
829 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
830 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
831 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
832 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
833 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
834 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
835 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
836
8378.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
838 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
839
8408.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
841 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
842 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
843 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
844 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
845 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
846 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
847 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
848 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
849 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
850 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
851 - parallel builds should work once more.
852
8538.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
854 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
855 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
856 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
