30TODO: digital clock gets nuked after searching 28 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
31TODO: read .Xdefaults even when we have display resources, but give them lower priority 29 - fix build with !xft.
30 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
31
329.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
33 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
34 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
35 received" problem, again :)
36 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
37
389.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
39 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
40 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
41 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintaienrs
42 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
43 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
44 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
45 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
46 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
47 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
48 channels or background images are used.
49 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
50 till the first event arrives. or so.
51 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
52 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
53 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
54 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
55 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
56 resets the terminal.
57 - scrollbar code cleanups.
58 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
59 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
60 - updated to libev 3.0.
61
628.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
63 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
64 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
65 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
66 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
67 would not clear it visually in another.
68 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
69 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
70 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
71 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
72 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
73 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
74
758.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
76 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
77 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
78 effects.
79 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
80 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
81 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
82 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
83 text was visible.
84 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
85 some minor improvements.
86 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
87 display and not once per terminal window.
88 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
89
908.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
91 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
92 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
93 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
94
958.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
96 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
97 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
98 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
99 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
100 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
101 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
102 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
103
1048.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
105 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
106
1078.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
108 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
109 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
110 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
111 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
112 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
113 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
114 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
115 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internaly using :root op in pixmap
116 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
117 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
118 - parallel builds should work once more.
119
1208.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
121 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
122 - fix possible race betwen visual bell and poweron.
123 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
124 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
125 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
126 missing DISPLAY.
127 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
128 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
129 - updated io_manager.
130
1318.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
132 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
133 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
134 /usr/X11R6/lib.
135 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
136 patch by Sasha Vasko.
137 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
138 (patch by Philip Paeps).
139 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
140 (patch by Mikachu).
141 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
142 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
143 digit (exg).
144 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
145 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
146 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
147 extension (tpope).
148 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
149 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
150 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
151 problems.
152
1538.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
154 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
155 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
156 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
157 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
158 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
159 (found by Aiviru).
160 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
161 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
162 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
163 case to work around for :/
164 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
165 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
166 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
167 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
168 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
169 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
170 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
171 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
172 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
173 Paskevich).
174 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
175 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
176 - update libptytty.
177 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
178 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
179 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
180 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
181 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
182 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
183 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
184 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
185 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
186
1878.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
188 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
189 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
190 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
191 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
192 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
193 Reported by Takano Akio.
194 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
195 reported by exg.
196 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
197 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
198 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
199 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
200
2018.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
202 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
203 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
204 circumstances (reported by exg).
205 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
206 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
207 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
208 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
209 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
210 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
211 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
212 - update to libptytty-1.0.
213 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
214 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
215 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
216 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
217 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
218 bug #143985).
219 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
220 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
221 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
222 - manpage fix by exg.
223
2247.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
225 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
226 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
227 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
228 it does! :->
229 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
230 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
231
2327.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
233 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
234 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
235 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
236 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
237 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
238 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
239 terminal emulator (see man urxtvperl).
240 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
241 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
242 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
243 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
244 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
245 uppercase character.
32 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h. 246 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
247 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
248 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
33 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues 249 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
34 when pixmap transparency was enabled. 250 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
251 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
252 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
35 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more 253 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more

271 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
