22TODO: /*TODO: the xlceararea/xfillrectangle below don't take scroll offste into account, ask mikachu for details */ 24 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
25 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
26 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
27 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
28 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
29 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
30 to disable both scaling and tiling.
31 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
32 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
33 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
34 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
35 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
36 in the next release.
37 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
38 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
39 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
40 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
41 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
42 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
43 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
44 Filardo).
45 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
46 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
47 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
48 the cell size.
49 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
50 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
51 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
52 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
53 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
54 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
55 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
56 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
57 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
58 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
59 (Bob Farrell).
60 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
61 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
62 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
63 Pohlack).
64 - Support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
65 Michael Stapelberg).
66 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.

24TODO: investgate wm resize race: while sleep 0.001; do printf "\033[?30l";sleep 0.001;printf "\033[?30h";done 689.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
25TODO: investigate miroslav patches 69 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
26TODO: cursor over overlays, when focus change? 70 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
71 support the UTF8_STRING target.
72 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
73 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
74 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
75 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
76 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
77 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
78 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
79 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
80 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
81 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
82
839.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
84 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
85 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
86 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
87 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
88 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
89 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
90 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
91 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
92 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
93 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
94 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
95 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
96 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
97 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
98 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
99 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
100 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
101 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
102 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
103 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
104 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
105 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
106 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
107 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
108 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
109 with gcc.
110 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
111 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
112 - document 'thickness' resource.
113 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
114 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
115 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
116 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
117 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
118 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
119 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
120 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
121 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
122 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
123 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
124
1259.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
126 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
127 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
128 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
129 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
130 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
131 failures with gcc 4.5.
132 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
133 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
134 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
135 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
136 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
137 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
138 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
139 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
140 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
141 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
142 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
143 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
144 and has fewer limitations.
145 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
146 startup for the upper left corner.
147 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
148 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
149 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
150 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
151 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
152 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
153 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
154 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
155 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
156 - fix build on XFree86.
157 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
158 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
159 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
160 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
161

175 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
176 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
177 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
178 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
179 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
180 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
181 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
182 characters other than first one in the selected cell
183 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
184 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
185 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
186 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
187 (found by Mikachu).
188 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to

195 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
196 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
197 for 256 colours.
198 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
199 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
200 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
201 88*88 possible pairs.
202 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
203 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
204 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
205 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
206 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
207 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
208 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
209 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
210 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
211 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
212 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
213 backspacekey was given.
214 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.

216 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
217 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
218 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
219 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
220

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

248 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
249 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
250 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
251 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
252 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
253 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
254 in need of fixing. go figure.
255 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
256 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
257 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
258 the new ->selection_screen method.
