288.0 26TODO: cursor over overlays, when focus change?
27 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
28 when a window was closed.
29 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
30 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
31 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
32 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
33 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
34 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
35 makes copy&paste work.
36 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
37 no longer apply.
38 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
39 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
40 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
41 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
42 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
43 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
44 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
45 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
46 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
47 the only known workaround.
48 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
49 - intiialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally.
50
519.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
52 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
53 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
54 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
55 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
56 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend
57 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
58 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
59 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
60 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
61 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
62 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
63 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
64 help working window managers as well.
65 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
66 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
67 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
68 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
69 from the toplevel window to the children.
70 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
71 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
72 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
73 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
74
759.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
76 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
77 - fix build with !xft.
78 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
79
809.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
81 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
82 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
83 received" problem, again :)
84 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
85
869.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
87 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
88 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
89 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintaienrs
90 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
91 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
92 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
93 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
94 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
95 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
96 channels or background images are used.
97 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
98 till the first event arrives. or so.
99 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
100 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
101 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
102 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
103 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
104 resets the terminal.
105 - scrollbar code cleanups.
106 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
107 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
108 - updated to libev 3.0.
109
1108.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
111 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
112 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
113 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
114 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
115 would not clear it visually in another.
116 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
117 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
118 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
119 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
120 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
121 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
122
1238.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
124 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
125 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
126 effects.
127 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
128 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
129 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
130 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
131 text was visible.
132 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
133 some minor improvements.
134 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
135 display and not once per terminal window.
136 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
137
1388.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
139 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
140 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
141 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
142
1438.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
144 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
145 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
146 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
147 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
148 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
149 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
150 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
151
1528.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
153 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
154
1558.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
156 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
157 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
158 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
159 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
160 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
161 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
162 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
163 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internaly using :root op in pixmap
164 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
165 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
166 - parallel builds should work once more.
167
1688.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
169 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
170 - fix possible race betwen visual bell and poweron.

193 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
194 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
195 extension (tpope).
196 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
197 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
198 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor

200
2018.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
202 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
203 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.

205 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
206 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
207 (found by Aiviru).
208 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
209 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
210 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
211 case to work around for :/
212 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
213 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
214 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
215 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.

217 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
218 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
219 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
220 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
221 Paskevich).
222 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
223 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
224 - update libptytty.
225 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
226 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
227 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
228 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
229 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
230 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
231 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).

236 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
237 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
238 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
239 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
240 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
241 Reported by Takano Akio.

248
2498.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
250 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
251 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
252 circumstances (reported by exg).
29 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the 253 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
30 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope). 254 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
