23TODO: rxvt -font 10x20 -xrm "*.tabbed.font: 10x20" -pe tabbed 279.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
24 how does one affect the tab windows themselves? seems not to work anymore. 28 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
29 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
30 support the UTF8_STRING target.
31 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
32 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
33 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
34 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
35 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
36 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
37 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
38 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
39 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
40 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
25 41
26TODO: implement initial chdir for tabs by making it a resource? 429.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
43 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
44 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
45 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
46 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
47 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
48 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
49 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
50 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
51 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
52 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
53 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
54 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
55 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
56 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
57 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
58 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
59 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
60 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
61 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
62 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
63 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
64 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
65 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
66 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
67 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
68 with gcc.
69 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
70 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
71 - document 'thickness' resource.
72 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
73 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
74 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
75 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
76 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
77 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
78 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
79 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
80 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
81 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
82 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
83
849.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
85 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
86 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
87 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
88 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
89 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
90 failures with gcc 4.5.
91 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
92 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
93 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
94 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
95 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
96 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
97 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
98 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
99 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
100 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
101 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
102 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
103 and has fewer limitations.
104 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
105 startup for the upper left corner.
106 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
107 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
108 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
109 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
110 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
111 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
112 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
113 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
114 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
115 - fix build on XFree86.
116 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
117 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
118 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
119 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
120

130 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
131 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
132 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
133 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
134 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
135 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
136 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
137 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
138 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
139 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
140 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
141 characters other than first one in the selected cell
142 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
143 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
144 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
145 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
146 (found by Mikachu).
147 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
148 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
149 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
150 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
151 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
152 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
153 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
154 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
155 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
156 for 256 colours.
157 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
158 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
159 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
160 88*88 possible pairs.
161 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
162 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
163 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
164 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
165 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
166 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
167 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
168 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
169 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
170 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
171 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
172 backspacekey was given.
173 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.

181 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
182 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
183 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
184 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
185 Mikachu).
186 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
187 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
188 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
189 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
190 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
191 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
192 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
193 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
194 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
195 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
196 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
197 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
198 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
199 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
200 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
201 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
202 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
203 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).

207 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
208 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
209 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
210 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
211 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
212 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
213 in need of fixing. go figure.
214 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
215 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
216 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
217 the new ->selection_screen method.

227 - updates libev to 3.48.
228 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
229 when a window was closed.
230 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
231 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
232 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
233 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
234 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
235 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
236 makes copy&paste work.

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

247 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
248 the only known workaround.
249 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
250 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
251 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
252 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
253 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
254 disabling size hints.
255 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
256 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
257 as mouse reporting.
258 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
259 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
260 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
261 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
262 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
263 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
264 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
265 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
266 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
267 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
