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 memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
33 Filardo).
34 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
35 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
36 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
37 the cell size.
38 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
39 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
40 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
41 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
42 - Fix compilation on systems with bsd style utmp and no utmpx,
43 such as openbsd.
44 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
45 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
46 (Bob Farrell).
47 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
48 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
49 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
50 Pohlack).
23 51
24TODO: cursor over overlays, when focus change? 529.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
25TODO: tput reset, reset more stuff/mouse reporting 53 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
54 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
55 support the UTF8_STRING target.
56 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
57 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
58 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
59 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
60 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
61 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
62 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
63 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
64 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
65 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
66
679.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
68 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
69 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
70 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
71 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
72 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
73 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
74 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
75 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
76 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
77 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
78 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
79 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
80 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
81 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
82 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
83 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
84 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
85 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
86 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
87 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
88 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
89 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
90 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
91 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
92 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
93 with gcc.
94 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
95 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
96 - document 'thickness' resource.
97 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
98 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
99 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
100 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
101 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
102 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
103 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
104 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
105 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
106 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
107 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
108
1099.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
110 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
111 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
112 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
113 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
114 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
115 failures with gcc 4.5.
116 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
117 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
118 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
119 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
120 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
121 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
122 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
123 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
124 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
125 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
126 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
127 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
128 and has fewer limitations.
129 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
130 startup for the upper left corner.
131 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
132 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
133 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
134 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
135 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
136 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
137 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
138 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
139 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
140 - fix build on XFree86.
141 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
142 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
143 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
144 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
145
1469.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010

159 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
160 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
161 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
162 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
163 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
164 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
165 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
166 characters other than first one in the selected cell
167 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
168 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
169 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
170 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
171 (found by Mikachu).
172 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
173 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
174 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
175 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
176 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
177 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
178 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
179 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
180 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
181 for 256 colours.
182 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
183 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
184 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
185 88*88 possible pairs.
186 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
187 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
188 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
189 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
190 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
191 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
192 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
193 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
194 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
195 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
196 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
197 backspacekey was given.
198 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
199 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
200 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
201 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
202 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
203 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
204
2059.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
206 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
207 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
208 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
209 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
210 Mikachu).
211 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
212 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
213 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
214 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
215 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
216 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
217 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
218 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
219 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
220 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
221 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
222 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
223 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
224 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
225 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
226 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).

232 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
233 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
234 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
235 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
236 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
237 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
238 in need of fixing. go figure.
239 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
240 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
241 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
242 the new ->selection_screen method.
