5TODO: configurable underline line colour. 3TODO: xcopyarea pass broken, fix and improve
4TODO: event mechanism that replaces on_keyboard_command with something more scalable.
5TODO: slipwheeling needs a keyboard grab to get key release events.
6TODO: overlays collide with the way the out-of-focus cursor is being drawn
7TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts, pango!
6TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc. 8TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
7FEAT: hotkey font resizing 9TODO: slow drag selection on remote display - other things seem fast (rxvt illness, motion hints?)
8FEAT: searchable backlog 10TODO: investigate -pe tabbed -g 80x25 being 23 not 24 or 25 lines
9FEAT: meta-tagging of data by regex (my dream project) 11 => when setting the constraints, the wm might (correctly)
10FEAT: triple-click == select full output line 12 resize the outer window, which might result in a smaller window overall.
11FEAT: double-click: more intelligent (urls etc.) 13 or something like that. guys, send me a patch.
12FEAT: OnTheSpot editing. 14WISH: skipscroll option
13FEAT: tabbed windows (hey, just use screen...) 15WISH: selection-color-pair instead of reverse video
16WISH: load system-wide config file even if we don't have one
17WISH: look into XAddConnectionWatch, does anybody need that?
18WISH: anyevent mouse notification / manage MotionMask better.
19WISH: http://www120.pair.com/mccarthy/nextstep/intro.htmld/Workspace.html is the correct nextstep scrollbar look.
20WISH: kick out xpm.C, replace by pixbuf
21DUMB: support tex fonts

23TODO: fix rounding of colors when !xft (#aaaaaa => #a9a900) (do not use correct, but expected value)
2403:05 <Aiviru> Hrm. I've found that my problem isn't so much urxvt, though it /does/ seem to ignore colorRV
25 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
26 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
27 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
28 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
29 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
30 (found by Aiviru).
31
328.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
33 - ｹﾘｽﾏｽﾌ゚ﾚｾ゙ﾝﾄ - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
34 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
35 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
36 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
37 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
38 Reported by Takano Akio.
39 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
40 reported by exg.
41 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
42 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
43 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
44 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
45
468.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
47 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
48 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
49 circumstances (reported by exg).
50 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
51 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
52 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
53 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
54 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
55 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
56 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
57 - update to libptytty-1.0.
58 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
59 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
60 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
61 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
62 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
63 bug #143985).
64 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
65 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
66 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
67 - manpage fix by exg.
68
697.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
70 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
71 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
72 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
73 it does! :->
74 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
75 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
76
777.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
78 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
79 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
80 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
81 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
82 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
83 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
84 terminal emulator (see man urxtvperl).
85 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
86 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
87 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
88 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
89 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
90 uppercase character.
91 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
92 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
93 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
94 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
95 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
96 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
97 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
98 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
99 generic osc_seq.
100 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
101 were invoked recursively.
102 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
103 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
104 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
105 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
106 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
107 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
108 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
109 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
110 by omatunto_.
111 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
112 follow C++ closely enough.
113 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
114 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
115 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
116 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
117
1187.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
119 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
120 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
121 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
122 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
123 click, and eats the click.
124 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
125 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
126 refresh bugs please.
127 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
128 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
129 improve size hint setting.
130 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
131 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
132 to correctly position their preedit window.
133 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
134 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
135 in empty spaces, but thats not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
136 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
137 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
138 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
139 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
140 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
141 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
142 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
143 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
144 (reported by Paco-Paco).
145 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
146 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
147 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
148
1497.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
150 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
151 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
152 resource value.
153 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
154 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and keys events to th
155 relevant tab window.
156 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
157 (initial patch by hednod).
158 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
159 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
160 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
161 the benefit of automove-background.
162 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
163 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
164 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
165 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
166 __linux__.
167 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
168 the colour components.
169 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
170 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
171 - more colour rtt optimisations.
172 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
173 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
174 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
175 - minor libptytty update.
176
1777.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
178 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
179 detection:
180 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
181 - overlap detection was improved.
182 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
183 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
184 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
185 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
186 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
187 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
188 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
189 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
190 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
191 broken.
192 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
193 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
194 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
195 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
196 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
197 (patch by Paco-Paco).
198 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
199 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
200 an "[alpha]" prefix.
201 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
202 transparent. Long Live Xft!
203 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
204 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
205 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
206 on a pseudocolor screen.
207 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
208 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
209 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
210 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
211 - small configure updates.
212 - further RTT optimisations.
213 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
214 the debian package.
215 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
216 but much newer than the old one.
217
2187.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
219 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
220 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
221 - small configure updates for libptytty.
222 - fixed version options: line output.
223 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
224
2257.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
226 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
227 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
228 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
229 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
230 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
231 selection extension.
232 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
233 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
234 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
235 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
236 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
237 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
238 needs the careful rendering mode.
239 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
240 too wide and needs careful mode.
241 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
242 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
243 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
244 atoms only once per display.
245 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
246 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
247 xterm.
248
2497.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
250 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
251 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
252 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
253 ctrl-shift-672c).
254 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
255 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
256 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
257 the primary screen.
258 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
259 could lead to an assertion failure.
260 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
261 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
262 via mouse clicks.
263 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
264 with shift - mouse button 2.
265 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
266 in non-synthetic events.
267 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
268 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
269 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
270 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
271 whole urxvt[d] process.
272 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
273 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
274 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
275 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
276
2777.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
278 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
279 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
280 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
281 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
282 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
283 special privileges.
284 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
285 itself.
286 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
287 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
288 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
289 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
290 similar stuff.
291 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
292 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
293 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
294 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
295 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
296 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
297 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
298 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
299 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
300 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
301 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
302 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
303 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
304 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
305 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
306 to set the window title.
307 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
308 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
309 at the wrong time.
310 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
311 anymore.
312 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
313 - nuked QNX support.
314 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
315 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
316 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
317 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
318
3197.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
320 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
321 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
322 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
323 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
324 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
325 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
326 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
327 and much much more.
328 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
329 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
330 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
331 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
332 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
333 setuid/setgid.
334 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
335 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
336 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
337 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
338 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
339 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
340 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
341 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
342 compatible, and not really small either.
343 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
344 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
345 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
346 to crashes.
347 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
348 colours.
349 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
350 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
351
3526.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
353 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
354 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
355 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
356 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
357 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
358 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
359 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
360 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
361 by Mikachu).
362 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
363 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
364 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
365 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
366 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
367 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
368 - fix directory permissions on install.
369 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
370 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
371 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
372 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
373 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
374
3756.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
376 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
377 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
378 Chuck Blake.
379 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
380 obscure the mouse cursor position.
381 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
382 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
383 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
384 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
385 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
386 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
387 transfer efficiency.
388 - further minor cleanups.
389
3906.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
391 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
392 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
393 while the user still drags.
394 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
395 not drawn correctly.
396 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
397 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
398 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
399 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
400 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
401 stripping whitespace.
402 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
403 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
404
4056.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
406 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
407 - enable slow link support by default.
408 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
409 (also a bug in original rxvt).
410 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
411 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
412 partial patch).
413 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
414 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
415 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
416 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
417 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
418 - implement -hold option.
419 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
420 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
421 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
422 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
423 - slight overall speed improvements.
424 - considerably improved code clarity.
425 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
426 buffer.
427
4285.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
429 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
430 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
431 (matters only for rxvtd).
432 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
433 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
434 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
435
4365.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
437 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
438 If you want the old behaviour, try:
439 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
440 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
441 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
442 percentage by 100-percentage.
443 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
444 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
445 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
446 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
447 windows.
448 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
449 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
450 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
451 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
452 - replaced INSTALL file.
453
4545.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
455 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
456 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
457 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
458 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
459 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
460 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
461 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
462 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
463
4645.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
465 - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
466 every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
467 Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
468 - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
469 uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
470 Affects display in iso14755 box.
471 - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
472 hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
473 chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
474 - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
475 overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
476 more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
477 cutting pieces off of characters.
478 - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
479 fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
480 - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
481 at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
482 - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
483 output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
484 - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.
485
4865.5 Sat Apr 23 22:31:36 CEST 2005
487 - re-enabled modifer state matching as in 5.3, but implement
488 a new builtin: keysym style that simply reverts to the built-in
489 meaning of the given key.
490 - use scrollcolor for next scrollbar instead of hardcoded antiquewhite
491 (patch by Martin Edlman).
492
4935.4 Mon Apr 18 00:33:31 CEST 2005
494 - match modifier state exactly in custom keyboard code.
495 this is necessary because it has no knowledge about
496 built-in mappings and so will overwrite them. the priority-code
497 will be re-enabled when this has changed, so watch out.
498 - cursor blinking now depends on frills.
499 - underline cursor mode (frills, -uc).
500 - implement special value (*g*) for pointerBlankDelay
501 to disable it.
502
5035.3 Sun Mar 13 00:20:44 CET 2005
504 - fix a bug that allowed to overflow a buffer via a long
505 escape sequence, which is probably exploitable (fix by
506 Rob Holland / Yoann Vandoorselaere / Gentoo Audit Team).
507 - Custom key mappings no longer confuse mouse buttons
508 with modifiers.
509 - use XmbSetWMProperties instead of XSetWMProperties.
510 - properly update WM_LOCALE.
511 - implement _NET_WM_PING protocol.
512 - implemented escape sequences to move the scrollback buffer view
513 and clear the scrollback buffer.
514
5155.2 Sun Feb 20 01:48:59 CET 2005
516 - new option -pty-fd that makes the terminal a slave
517 that uses an existing pty for I/O instead of starting
518 a command.
519 - implement enough of XEMBED to allow for correct focus.
520 - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
521 and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented
522 in Perl/Gtk2.
523 - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
524 when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.
525 (reported by Mikael Magnusson).
526 - SYNCCVS. backported bugfixes done to rxvt
527 (sourceforge bugs #1028739, #1028732), except for
528 pts/%s fix as it seems to collide with freebsd,
529 and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
530 - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
531 line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
532 with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
533 needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
534 - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help
535 some apps who fail to set the correct mode.
536 - check for WM_PROTOCOLS type in ClientMessage as to
537 not destroy the window for other types of messages.
538 - remove shared library (or any library) support - it is
539 of no use currently (and -embed is a better way to embed
540 rxvt-unicode).
541 - get rid of the intpro files.
542
5435.1 Tue Feb 15 17:13:27 CET 2005
544 - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one
545 for empty keymaps which could result in crashes
546 (Kuang-che Wu).
547 - new option: -embed (frills). somebody could write a simple
548 tk script to make a tab'able terminal now...
549 - only warn on X errors and _try_ to continue (frills).
550 - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow.
551 - after deciding that LSM is dead, remove all traces of it,
552 along with other, similar, cleanups.
553 - _try_ to react sensibly to some non-monotonic time changes.
554 - don't crash in urxvtc when getcwd fails (reported by Paco-Paco).
555 - tweak font searching algorithm a bit to be faster and more
556 compatible with older rxvt-unicode versions when multiple fonts
557 match (reported by Paco-Paco).
558 - urxvtd tries to stay in "/" whenever possible.
559
5605.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005
561 - document a race-free hack to start urxvtd.
562 - document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt.
563 - bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with
564 Xt, and document it in rxvt(1).
565 - correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault,
566 and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for
567 his patience and time in tracking this down).
568 - bring own resource parsing more in line with X resource parsing,
569 most notably, don't remove double quotes.
570 - compile fix for freebsd (no ut_id) (Thierry Thomas).
571 - clean up utmp and pty on X I/O errors and signals (idea
572 by Joël Riou).
573 - "un"document -xrm, it never really worked, was only
574 available with --enable-xgetdefault, is not necessary
575 and is surprisingly hard to implement.
576 - shaved off some code segment size.
577 - various code cleanups.
578 - more keysym-mapping fixes.
579
5804.9 Thu Feb 3 09:52:03 CET 2005
581 - nuke out utmp entries completely. Should be fixed in
582 original rxvt, too. (reported by James Michael Fultz).
583 - resizes wil now correctly refresh the displayed text when
584 -pixmap is active.
585 - new option/resource imFont.
586 - document --tripleclickwords/-tcw.
587 - select logical instead of physical lines when doing a triple-click.
588 - reordered help listing to group similar options together.
589 - handle SIGINT the same way as SIGTERM (reported by Joël Riou).
590 - fix a bug introduced while applying the keyboard patch
591 (WU Fengguang).
592 - document all window-op sequences (rxvt.7.) and more keysym
593 examples (rxvt.1).
594 - removed src/test completely.
595 - renamed keysym 'proto:'-prefix to 'command:'.
596
5974.8 Tue Jan 18 02:23:57 CET 2005
598 - added a patch by WU Fengguang that makes the keyboard
599 highly configurable (e.g. locale changes, custom escape
600 sequences, and more). See keysym resource in rxvt(1).
601 - remove default key sequence for unknown keys again, as this
602 can be achieved by customizing the keyboard now.
603 - fix some freeing problems when destroying the rxvt_display,
604 resulting in segfaults.
605 - don't crash when the saved cursor position doesn't fit on the
606 screen (wrong assert in original rxvt, reported by ikaro).
607 - fix signed/unsigned bugs on wc<->mb conversions.
608 - reset slipwheel scrolling speed when reaching the top or bottom
609 (Mikael Magnusson).
610 - for core fonts, use ascent + descent when a font is loaded,
611 and PIXEL_SIZE when not. when loading a font, iterate until a
612 font has been found that _really_ fits the height (reported and
613 tested by Olivier Wittenberg).
614 - set IUTF8 input flag, when defined (linux-2.6.5+).
615 - only define _XOPEN_SOURCE on solaris.
616 - autogenerate src/* dependency list.
617 - fixed linespace option, which ought to work now (and is dependent
618 on frills, not on it's own configure option).
619 - include pty.h, if available (cygwin).
620 - removed W11 directory from dist, it wasn't used anyway.
621 - initialize the locale much earlier.
622 - fixed two tiny per-instance memory leaks.
623
6244.7 Wed Dec 29 20:54:24 CET 2004
625 - fix a bug in the event logic that could cause the temrinal to be
626 black on initial startup.
627 - do NOT call XCloseIM, ever. This causes way to many crashes due to
628 races in the protocol and within Xlib.
629 - map iso-left-tab to the same sequence as shift-tab.
630 - generate a unique escape sequence for many unknown keys, such as
631 additional multimedia keys.
632 - mask out high (non-unicode) bits on wide characters, to cope with
633 implementations that store tag info in the high bits.
634

21 turnarounds would be much faster, but impossible to implement. 640 turnarounds would be much faster, but impossible to implement(?).
641 - implement underlineColor resource when ENABLE_FRILLS.
642 - iom left it's signal pipe handle open in the child
643 process. Fortunately not security-relevant as the pipe data gets
644 ignored.
22 - do not use XSETROOTPMAP_ID anymore, support ESETROOT_PMAP_ID 645 - do not use XSETROOTPMAP_ID anymore, support ESETROOT_PMAP_ID
