25 how does one affect the tab windows themselves? seems not to work anymore. 30 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
31 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
32 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
33 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
34 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
35 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
36 to disable both scaling and tiling.
37 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
38 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
39 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
40 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
41 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
42 in the next release.
43 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
44 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
45 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
46 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
47 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
48 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
49 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
50 Filardo).
51 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
52 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
53 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
54 the cell size.
55 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
56 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
57 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
58 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
59 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
60 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
61 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
62 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
63 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
64 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
65 (Bob Farrell).
66 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
67 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
68 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
69 Pohlack).
70 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
71 Michael Stapelberg).
72 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
73 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
74 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
75 edge (Mikachu).
76 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
77 handle exceptions better.
78 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
79 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
26 80
27TODO: implement initial chdir for tabs by making it a resource? 819.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
82 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
83 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
84 support the UTF8_STRING target.
85 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
86 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
87 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
88 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
89 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
90 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
91 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
92 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
93 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
94 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
95
969.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
97 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
98 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
99 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
100 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
101 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
102 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
103 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
104 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
105 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
106 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
107 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
108 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
109 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
110 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
111 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
112 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
113 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
114 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
115 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
116 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
117 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
118 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
119 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
120 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
121 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
122 with gcc.
123 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
124 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
125 - document 'thickness' resource.
126 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
127 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
128 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
129 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
130 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
131 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
132 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
133 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
134 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
135 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
136 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
137
1389.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
139 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
140 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
141 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
142 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
143 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
144 failures with gcc 4.5.
145 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
146 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
147 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
148 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
149 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
150 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
151 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
152 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
153 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
154 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
155 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
156 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
157 and has fewer limitations.
158 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
159 startup for the upper left corner.
160 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
161 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
162 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
163 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
164 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
165 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
166 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
167 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
168 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
169 - fix build on XFree86.
170 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
171 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
172 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
173 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
174

188 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
189 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
190 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).

192 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
193 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
194 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
195 characters other than first one in the selected cell
196 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
197 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
198 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
199 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
200 (found by Mikachu).
201 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to

203 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
204 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
205 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
206 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
207 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
208 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
209 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
210 for 256 colours.
211 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
212 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
213 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
214 88*88 possible pairs.
215 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
216 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
217 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
218 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
219 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
220 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
221 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
222 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
223 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
224 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
225 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
226 backspacekey was given.
227 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.

233
2349.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
235 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
236 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
237 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
238 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
239 Mikachu).
240 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
241 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
242 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
243 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
244 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
245 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
246 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
247 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
248 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
249 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
250 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
251 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
252 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
253 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
254 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
255 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).

259 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
260 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
261 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
262 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
263 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
264 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
265 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
266 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
267 in need of fixing. go figure.
268 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
269 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
270 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
271 the new ->selection_screen method.

283 when a window was closed.
284 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
285 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
286 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
287 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
288 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
289 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but

301 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
302 the only known workaround.
303 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
304 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
305 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
306 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
307 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
308 disabling size hints.
309 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
310 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
311 as mouse reporting.
312 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
313 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
314 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
315 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
316 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
317 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
318 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
319 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
320 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
321 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).

33 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems. 335 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
336 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
337 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
338 help working window managers as well.
34 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata). 339 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
