24 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
25 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
26 Mikachu).
27 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
28 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
29 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
30 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
31 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
32 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
33 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
34 refresgh (reported by Mikachu).

369.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
37 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
38 - updates libev to 3.48.
39 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
40 when a window was closed.
41 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
42 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
43 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
44 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
45 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
46 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
47 makes copy&paste work.
48 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
49 no longer apply.
50 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
51 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
52 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
53 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
54 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
55 - do some ยต-optimisations to the character fast path.
56 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
57 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
58 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
59 the only known workaround.
60 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
61 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
62 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
63 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that errornously resize
64 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
65 disabling size hints.
66 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
67 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
68 as mouse reporting.
69 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
70 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
71 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
72 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
73 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
74 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
75 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
76 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
77 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
78 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
79 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
80 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
81
829.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
83 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
84 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
85 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
86 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
87 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend
88 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
89 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
90 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
91 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
92 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
93 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
94 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
95 help working window managers as well.
23 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata). 96 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
97 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
24 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd. 98 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
25 99 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
100 from the toplevel window to the children.
101 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
102 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
103 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
104 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
