48TODO: match default regex does not match https://猫.移动/tmp/ => document special encoding and possibly rewrite the regex.
49 - libptytty is now an external dependency.
50 - enable confirm-paste extension by default, can be disabled by e.g.
51 URxvt.perl-ext: -confirm-paste
52 - Key bindings specified with the -keysym option or with resources of
53 the form URxvt*keysym work again. Such resources, as opposed to
54 resources of the form URxvt.keysym, were not officially allowed but
55 accepted, so ignoring them is considered a regression.
56 - new option/resource -rm/rewrapMode, which sets the line rewrap
57 mode to auto, never or always.
58 - new option/resource -dpb/disablePasteBrackets, which can be used to
59 disable bracketed paste mode sequences, as more and more programs
60 abuse these sequences (typically in the name of security, but these
61 sequences are not improving security). Also, bracketed paste mode
62 is now under frills.
63 - add manpage for urclock.
64 - confirm-paste wrongly considered brackets as ctrlchars (patch by
65 Jakub Wilk, debian bug #995244).
66 - if urxvt cannot detect a good estimate for font width (because a font does
67 not contain latin characters at all for example), it will now fall
68 back to xft's max_advance_width, which works well with some fonts. It
69 currently will warn about this.
70 - do not render variation selectors in the default font as boxes, treat
71 them as zero-width characters.
72 - change combining character architecture to allow fonts to handle
73 combining sequences on their own. This could allow future renderers
74 to be more intelligent about these sequences.
75 - use the previous enhancement to allow unicode characters outside of the
76 BMP to be rendered even without --enable-unicode3, as long as an
77 xft with the character is configured.
78 It's recommended to stay with disabled unicode3 even more now.
79 - freetype/xft have been verified to return nonsensical offsets for
80 combining characters. urxvt tries to compensate to some extent,
81 but diacritics will be slightly off in many cases, and far off in
82 some cases (e.g. input mono).
83 - when checking for overlap/careful handling, take non-basefont
84 character shifts into account.
85 - extensions can now request autoloading on OSC and Perl OSC sequences,
86 implement this for the background, clipboard-osc and overlay-osc
87 extensions.
88 - the background extension will now be autoloaded when the OSC 20 or 705
89 sequence is received.
90 - The view_start perl method now scrolls to the bottom also when the
91 argument is greater than 0.
92 - eval scroll actions now scroll to the bottom when scrolling down and
93 there are less lines to scroll than the ones requested (reported by
94 Stephen Talley).
95 - allow perl-ext and perl-ext-common to override autoloaded extensions.
96 this allows tabbed to disable itself in subtabs, avoiding recursive
97 loading.
98 - update precompose table to unicode 13.0.
99 - update charset conversion tables to perl 5.32 (this only affected
100 cs_koi8_u_from_unicode).
101 - unicode characters > 0x100000 were not handled correctly w.r.t.
102 font rendering.
103 - replace bitstream vera by dejavu sans, as it has replaced the former
104 almost everywhere.
105 - urxvt will now try tic -x first and only fall back to tic without -x
106 when tic -x fails.
107 - fix urclock not erasing the old date on the clock face, causing
108 overdraw, plus a host of other small fixes and improvements.
109 - shave off over 1K of code size from urclock by replacing the sine table
110 with a slightly less accurate fixed point approximation.
111 - do not specify indentation with =over in pod, this is no longer
112 needed with semi-modern pod tools and gives the formatter more
113 stylistic freedom.
114 - background extension did not set the "size-sensitive" flag
115 when repeat mode wasn't normal.
116 - extensions are now subjected to "use strict 'subs'".
117 - avoid crashing when xft successfully opens a font but then somehow
118 can't lock the face.
119 - locale_decode/encode api methods now pass through undef unchanged.
120 - fix undefined behaviour in the perl hook function, as diagnosed by clang.
121
1229.26 Fri May 14 19:14:14 CEST 2021
123 - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly
124 not packaged.
125
1269.25 Fri May 14 15:51:36 CEST 2021
127 - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to
128 remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as
129 urclock.
130 - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105,
131 freebsd bug #234276.
132 - do not destruct perl on exit anymore: this might fail for a variety of
133 reasons, and takes unnecessary time.
134 - remove any macros from urxvtperl manpage(s), should fix debian
135 bug 858385.
136 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
137 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
138 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
139 ext if any bg image resource/option is present (for OSC sequences to
140 work you need to enable it explicitly). The old bg image
141 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
142 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
143 - confirm-paste now checks for any ctlchars, not just newlines.
144 - searchable scrollback will now ignore bracketed paste mode sequences
145 (prompted by Daniel Gröber's patch).
146 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in
147 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit
148 program can be used as a substitute).
149 - perl didn't parse rgba colours specified as an array correctly,
150 only allowing 0 and 100% intensity for each component (this affected
151 fill and tint).
152 - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle
153 multipart resources (such as "*background.expr"), for the benefit
154 of autoloading perl extensions.
155 - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security
156 implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5,
157 and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known.
158 - work around API change breakage in perl 5.28, based on a patch by
159 Roman Bogorodskiy.
160 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
161 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
162 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
163 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
164 - xterm SGR mouse mode.
165 - implement DECRQM. Patch by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
166 - add missing color index parameter to OSC 4 response. Patch
167 by Přemysl Eric Janouch.
168 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
169 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
170 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
171 - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression.
172 - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video
173 is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it
174 is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler).
175 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
176 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
177 - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions
178 (patch by Rastislav Barlik).
179 - fix a whole slew of const sillyness, unfortunately forced upon
180 us by ISO C++.
181 - update to libecb 0x00010006.
182 - disable all thread support in ecb.h as we presumably don't need it.
183 - slightly improve Makefile source dependencies.
184 - work around bugs in newer Pod::Xhtml versions (flags incorrect formatting codes
185 in xhtml/html sections but does not interpret correct ones).
186
1879.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
188 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
189 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
190 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
191 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
192 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
193 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
194 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
195 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
196 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
197 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
198 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
199 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
200 Devin J. Pohly).
201 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
202 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
203 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
204 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
205 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
206 action now properly rebinds the key.
207 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
208 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
209 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
210 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
211 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
212 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
213 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
214 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
215 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
216 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
217 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
218 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
219 window.
220 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
221 to a key combination.
222 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
223 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
224 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
225
2269.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
227 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
228 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
229 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
230 same height but different ascent.
231 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
232 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
233 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
234 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
235 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
236 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
237 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
238 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
239 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
240 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
241 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
242 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
243 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
244 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
245 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
246 but not documented.
247 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
248 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
249 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
250 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
251 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
252 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
253 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
254 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
255 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
256 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
257 associated to a matched pattern.
258 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
259 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
260 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
261 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
262 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
263 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
264 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
265 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
266 by Thomas Otto).
267 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
268 way properly.
269 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
270 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
271 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
272 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
273 #830236.
274 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
275 window/popup has been destroyed already.
276 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
277 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
278 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
279 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
280 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
281 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
282 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
283 simpler and actually more correct code.
284 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
285 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
286 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
287 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
288 frame buffers).
289 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
290 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
291 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
292
2939.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
294 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
295 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
296 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
297 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
298 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
299 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
300 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
301 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
302 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
303 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
304 the CLIPBOARD selection.
305 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
306 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
307 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
308 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
309 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
310 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
311
3129.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
313 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
314 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
315 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
316 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
317 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
318 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
319 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
320 function.
321 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
322 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
323
3249.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
325 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
326
3279.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
328 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
329 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
330 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
331 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
332 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
333 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
334 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
335 Münnich).
336 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
337 are disabled.
338
3399.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
340 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
341 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
342 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
343 Hemmer).
344 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
345 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
346 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
347 patch by Jan Larres).
348 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
349 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
350 as diagnosed by clang.
351 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
352 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
353 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
354 nickfailure@gmail.com).
355 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
356 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
357 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
358 for details.
359 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
360 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
361 which show up in -help etc.
362 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
363 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
364 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
365 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
366 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
367 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
368 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
369 - remove support for libafterimage.
370 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
371 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
372 libptytty instead.
373 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
374 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
375 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
376 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
377 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
378
3799.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
380 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
381 thinks thats an error.
382 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
383 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
384 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
385 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
386 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
387 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
388 and destination in composite operations.
389 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
390 for tabs.
391 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
392 Sung Pae).
393 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
394 - fix -C option on solaris.
395
3969.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
397 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
398 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
399 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
400 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
401 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
402 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
403 to disable both scaling and tiling.
404 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
405 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
406 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
407 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
408 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
409 in the next release.
410 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
411 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
412 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
413 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
414 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
415 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
416 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
417 Filardo).
418 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
419 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
420 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
421 the cell size.
422 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
423 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
424 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
425 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
426 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
427 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
428 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
429 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
430 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
431 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
432 (Bob Farrell).
433 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
434 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
435 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
436 Pohlack).
437 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
438 Michael Stapelberg).
439 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
440 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
441 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
442 edge (Mikachu).
443 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
444 handle exceptions better.
445 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
446 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
447
4489.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
449 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
450 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
451 support the UTF8_STRING target.
452 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
453 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
454 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
455 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
456 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
457 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
458 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
459 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
460 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
461 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
462
4639.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
464 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
465 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
466 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
467 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
468 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
469 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
470 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
471 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
472 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
473 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
474 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
475 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
476 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
477 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
478 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
479 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
480 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
481 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
482 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
483 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
484 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
485 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
486 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
487 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
488 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
489 with gcc.
490 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
491 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
492 - document 'thickness' resource.
493 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
494 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
495 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
496 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
497 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
498 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
499 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
500 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
501 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
502 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
503 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
504
5059.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
506 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
507 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
508 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
509 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
510 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
511 failures with gcc 4.5.
512 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
513 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
514 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
515 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
516 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
517 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
518 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
519 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
520 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
521 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
522 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
523 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
524 and has fewer limitations.
525 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
526 startup for the upper left corner.
527 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
528 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
529 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
530 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
531 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
532 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
533 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
534 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
535 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
536 - fix build on XFree86.
537 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
538 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
539 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
540 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
541

555 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
556 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
557 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
558 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
559 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
560 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
561 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
562 characters other than first one in the selected cell
563 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
564 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
565 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
566 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
567 (found by Mikachu).
568 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
569 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
570 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
571 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
572 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
573 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).

575 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
576 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
577 for 256 colours.
578 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
579 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
580 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
581 88*88 possible pairs.
582 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
583 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
584 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
585 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
586 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
587 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
588 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
589 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
590 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
591 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
592 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
593 backspacekey was given.
594 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
595 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
596 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
597 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
598 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
599 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
600
6019.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
602 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
603 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
604 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
605 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
606 Mikachu).
607 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
608 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
609 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
610 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
611 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
612 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
613 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
614 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
615 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
616 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
617 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
618 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
619 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
620 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
621 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
622 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).

626 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
627 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
628 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
629 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
630 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
631 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
632 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
633 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
634 in need of fixing. go figure.
635 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
636 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
637 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
638 the new ->selection_screen method.

650 when a window was closed.
651 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
652 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
653 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
654 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
655 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
656 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
657 makes copy&paste work.

659 no longer apply.
660 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.

665 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
666 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
667 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
668 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
669 the only known workaround.
670 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
671 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
672 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
673 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
674 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
675 disabling size hints.
676 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
677 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
678 as mouse reporting.
679 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
680 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
681 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
682 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
683 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
684 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
685 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
686 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
687 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
688 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
689 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup

698 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
699 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
700 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
701 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
702 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
703 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
704 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
705 help working window managers as well.
23 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata). 706 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
707 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
