Revision 1.860 by root, Mon Apr 7 15:57:40 2008 UTC

1TODO: harmonize --disable-options into position-dependent options. 1rxvt-unicode changelog <= google-friendly title
2TODO: after requesting the selection and getting a timeout, no further requests will be sent. 2
3TODO: safer command: keymap processing. 3TODO: init_secondary serves what purpose? maybe move it to earlier startup phase and re-think
4TODO: xcopyarea pass broken, fix and improve
5TODO: event mechanism that replaces on_keyboard_command with something more scalable.
6TODO: slipwheeling needs a keyboard grab to get key release events.
7TODO: overlays collide with the way the out-of-focus cursor is being drawn
4TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts 8TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts, pango!
5TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc. 9TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
6TODO: http://www120.pair.com/mccarthy/nextstep/intro.htmld/Workspace.html is the correct nextstep look. 10TODO: slow drag selection on remote display - other things seem fast (rxvt illness, motion hints?)
7WISH: keymap modification via esc-sequences. 11TODO: investigate -pe tabbed -g 80x25 being 23 not 24 or 25 lines
8WISH: searchable backlog 12 => when setting the constraints, the wm might (correctly)
9WISH: meta-tagging of data by regex/master process (my dream project) 13 resize the outer window, which might result in a smaller window overall.
10WISH: OnTheSpot editing, or maybe switch to miiiiiiif 14 or something like that. guys, send me a patch.
11WISH: just for fun, do shade and tint with XRender. 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?
18DUMB: support tex fonts
12 19
136.1 20TODO: fix perl doc for $term->ROW_t
21TODO: coloured pastebin
22TODO: maybe unlink the RXVT_SOCKET on exit?
23
24TODO: rxvt -font 10x20 -xrm "*.tabbed.font: 10x20" -pe tabbed
25 how does one affect the tab windows themselves? seems not to work anymore.
26
27TODO: memory leak for((i=0;i<1000;++o)); do rxvtc -g 1x1 -e exit;done
28 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
29 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
30 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
31
32TODO: implement initial chdir for tabs by making it a resource?
339.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
34 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
35 - fix build with !xft.
36 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
37
389.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
39 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
40 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
41 received" problem, again :)
42 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
43
449.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
45 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
46 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
47 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintaienrs
48 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
49 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
50 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
51 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
52 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
53 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
54 channels or background images are used.
55 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
56 till the first event arrives. or so.
57 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
58 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
59 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
60 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
61 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
62 resets the terminal.
63 - scrollbar code cleanups.
64 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
65 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
66 - updated to libev 3.0.
67
688.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
69 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
70 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
71 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
72 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
73 would not clear it visually in another.
74 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
75 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
76 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
77 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
78 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
79 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
80
818.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
82 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
83 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
84 effects.
85 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
86 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
87 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
88 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
89 text was visible.
90 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
91 some minor improvements.
92 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
93 display and not once per terminal window.
94 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
95
968.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
97 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
98 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
99 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
100
1018.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
102 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
103 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
104 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
105 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
106 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
107 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
108 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
109
1108.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
111 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
112
1138.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
114 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
115 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
116 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
117 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
118 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
119 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
120 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
121 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internaly using :root op in pixmap
122 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
123 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
124 - parallel builds should work once more.
125
1268.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
127 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
128 - fix possible race betwen visual bell and poweron.
129 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
130 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
131 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
132 missing DISPLAY.
133 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
134 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
135 - updated io_manager.
136
1378.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
138 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
139 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
140 /usr/X11R6/lib.
141 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
142 patch by Sasha Vasko.
143 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
144 (patch by Philip Paeps).
145 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
146 (patch by Mikachu).
147 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
148 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
149 digit (exg).
150 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
151 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
152 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
153 extension (tpope).
154 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
155 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
156 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
157 problems.
158
1598.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
160 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
161 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
162 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
163 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
164 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
165 (found by Aiviru).
166 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
167 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
168 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
169 case to work around for :/
170 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
171 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
172 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
173 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
174 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
175 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
176 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
177 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
178 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
179 Paskevich).
180 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
181 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
182 - update libptytty.
183 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
184 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
185 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
186 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
187 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
188 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
189 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
190 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
191 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
192
1938.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
194 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
195 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
196 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
197 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
198 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
199 Reported by Takano Akio.
200 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
201 reported by exg.
202 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
203 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
204 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
205 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
206
2078.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
208 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
209 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
210 circumstances (reported by exg).
211 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
212 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
213 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
214 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
215 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
216 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
217 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
218 - update to libptytty-1.0.
219 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
220 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
221 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
222 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
223 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
224 bug #143985).
225 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
226 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
227 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
228 - manpage fix by exg.
229
2307.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
231 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
232 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
233 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
234 it does! :->
235 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
236 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
237
2387.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
239 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
240 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
241 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
242 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
243 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
244 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
245 terminal emulator (see man urxtvperl).
246 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
247 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
248 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
249 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
250 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
251 uppercase character.
252 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
253 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
254 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
255 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
256 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
257 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
258 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
259 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
260 generic osc_seq.
261 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
262 were invoked recursively.
263 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
264 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
265 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
266 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
267 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
268 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
269 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
270 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
271 by omatunto_.
272 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
273 follow C++ closely enough.
274 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
275 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
276 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
277 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
278
2797.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
280 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
281 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
282 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
283 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
284 click, and eats the click.
285 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
286 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
287 refresh bugs please.
288 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
289 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
290 improve size hint setting.
291 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
292 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
293 to correctly position their preedit window.
294 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
295 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
296 in empty spaces, but thats not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
297 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
298 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
299 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
300 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
301 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
302 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
303 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
304 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
305 (reported by Paco-Paco).
306 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
307 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
308 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
309
3107.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
311 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
312 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
313 resource value.
314 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
315 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and keys events to th
316 relevant tab window.
317 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
318 (initial patch by hednod).
319 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
320 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
321 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
322 the benefit of automove-background.
323 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
324 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
325 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
326 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
327 __linux__.
328 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
329 the colour components.
330 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
331 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
332 - more colour rtt optimisations.
333 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
334 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
335 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
336 - minor libptytty update.
337
3387.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
339 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
340 detection:
341 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
342 - overlap detection was improved.
343 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
344 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
345 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
346 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
347 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
348 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
349 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
350 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
351 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
352 broken.
353 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
354 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
355 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
356 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
357 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
358 (patch by Paco-Paco).
359 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
360 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
361 an "[alpha]" prefix.
362 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
363 transparent. Long Live Xft!
364 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
365 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
366 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
367 on a pseudocolor screen.
368 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
369 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
370 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
371 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
372 - small configure updates.
373 - further RTT optimisations.
374 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
375 the debian package.
376 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
377 but much newer than the old one.
378
3797.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
380 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
381 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
382 - small configure updates for libptytty.
383 - fixed version options: line output.
384 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
385
3867.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
387 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
388 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
389 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
390 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
391 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
392 selection extension.
393 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
394 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
395 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
396 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
397 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
398 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
399 needs the careful rendering mode.
400 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
401 too wide and needs careful mode.
402 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
403 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
404 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
405 atoms only once per display.
406 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
407 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
408 xterm.
409
4107.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
411 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
412 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
413 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
414 ctrl-shift-672c).
415 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
416 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
417 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
418 the primary screen.
419 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
420 could lead to an assertion failure.
421 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
422 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
423 via mouse clicks.
424 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
425 with shift - mouse button 2.
426 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
427 in non-synthetic events.
428 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
429 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
430 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
431 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
432 whole urxvt[d] process.
433 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
434 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
435 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
436 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
437
4387.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
439 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
440 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
441 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
442 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
443 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
444 special privileges.
445 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
446 itself.
447 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
448 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
449 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
450 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
451 similar stuff.
452 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
453 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
454 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
455 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
456 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
457 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
458 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
459 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
460 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
461 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
462 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
463 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
464 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
465 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
466 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
467 to set the window title.
468 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
469 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
470 at the wrong time.
471 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
472 anymore.
473 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
474 - nuked QNX support.
475 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
476 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
477 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
478 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
479
4807.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
481 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
482 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
483 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
484 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
485 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
486 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
487 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
488 and much much more.
489 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
490 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
491 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
492 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
493 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
494 setuid/setgid.
495 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
496 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
497 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
498 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
499 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
500 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
501 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
502 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
503 compatible, and not really small either.
504 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
505 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
506 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
507 to crashes.
508 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
509 colours.
510 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
511 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
512
5136.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
514 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
515 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
516 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
517 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
518 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
519 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
520 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
521 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
522 by Mikachu).
523 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
524 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
525 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
526 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
527 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
528 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
529 - fix directory permissions on install.
530 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
531 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
532 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
533 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
534 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
535
5366.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
537 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
538 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
539 Chuck Blake.
540 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
541 obscure the mouse cursor position.
542 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
543 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
544 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
545 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
546 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
547 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
548 transfer efficiency.
549 - further minor cleanups.
550
5516.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
552 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
14 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback 553 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
15 while the user still drags. 554 while the user still drags.
555 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
556 not drawn correctly.
557 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
558 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
559 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
560 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
561 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
562 stripping whitespace.
563 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
564 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
