24 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
25 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
26 to disable both scaling and tiling.
27 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
28 been removed in favour of simple composable operations and
29 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
30 settings. Old operations are still parsed for backward
31 compatibility (Emanuele Giaquinta).
32 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
33 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
34 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
35 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
36 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
37 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
38 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
39 Filardo).
40 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
41 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
42 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
43 the cell size.
44 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
45 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
46 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
47 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
48 - Fix compilation on systems with bsd style utmp and no utmpx,
49 such as openbsd.
50 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
51 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
52 (Bob Farrell).
53 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
54 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
55 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
56 Pohlack).

25TODO: investigate miroslav patches 59 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
26TODO: artificially enlargen wide characters at end to correctly cut&paste. 60 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
27TODO: cursor over overlays, when focus change? 61 support the UTF8_STRING target.
62 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
63 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
64 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
65 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
66 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
67 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
68 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
69 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
70 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
71 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
72
739.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
74 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
75 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
76 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
77 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
78 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
79 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
80 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
81 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
82 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
83 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
84 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
85 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
86 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
87 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
88 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
89 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
90 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
91 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
92 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
93 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
94 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
95 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
96 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
97 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
98 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
99 with gcc.
100 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
101 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
102 - document 'thickness' resource.
103 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
104 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
105 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
106 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
107 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
108 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
109 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
110 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
111 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
112 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
113 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
114
1159.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
116 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
117 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
118 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
119 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
120 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
121 failures with gcc 4.5.
122 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
123 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
124 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
125 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
126 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
127 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
128 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
129 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
130 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
131 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
132 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
133 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
134 and has fewer limitations.
135 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
136 startup for the upper left corner.
137 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
138 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
139 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
140 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
141 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
142 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
143 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
144 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
145 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
146 - fix build on XFree86.
147 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
148 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
149 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
150 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
151
1529.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010

165 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
166 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
167 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
168 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
169 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
170 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
171 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
172 characters other than first one in the selected cell
173 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
174 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
175 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
176 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
177 (found by Mikachu).
178 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
179 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
180 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
181 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
182 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
183 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
184 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
185 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
186 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
187 for 256 colours.
188 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
189 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
190 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
191 88*88 possible pairs.
192 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
193 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
194 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
195 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
196 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
197 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
198 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
199 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
200 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
201 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
202 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
203 backspacekey was given.
204 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
205 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
206 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
207 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
208 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
209 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
210
2119.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
212 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
213 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
214 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
215 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
216 Mikachu).
217 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
218 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
219 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
220 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
221 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
222 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
223 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
224 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
225 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
226 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
227 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
228 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
229 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
230 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
231 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
232 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
233 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
234 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
235 - update to libptytty 1.3.
236 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
237 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
238 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
239 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
240 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
241 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
242 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
243 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
244 in need of fixing. go figure.
245 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
246 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
247 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
248 the new ->selection_screen method.
