On many driver/hardware + combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense + of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author. + - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal + click, and eats the click. + - tabbed perl extension now supports -e. + - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any + refresh bugs please. + - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property + changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips, + improve size hint setting. + - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets + the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods + to correctly position their preedit window. + - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the + former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same + in empty spaces, but thats not true when reversing (e.g. selection), + so also check for matching fg colours.
