21TODO: really enable libafterimage by default (6mb => 10mb rss without using it)? 22TODO: cursor over overlays, when focus change?
22TODO: document -blr units, and possibly fix blur (20 seems to be about 3 pixels, 23TODO: cursor restore/rendition restore on rmcup
23 80 seems to be about 3 pixels, too, just much slower). 24 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
24TODO: when window partially off-screen, -blr does not have any effect anymore. 25 when a window was closed.
25TODO: borderLess resource might not work on some systems - might be another 26 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
26 gentoo phantom bug or a real problem, such as using it too early. 27 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
278. 28 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
29 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
30 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
31 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
32 makes copy&paste work.
33 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
34 no longer apply.
35 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
36 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
37 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
38 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
39 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
40 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
41 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
42 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
43 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
44 the only known workaround.
45 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
46 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
47 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
48 - try to work around a race between urxvt and wm's on programmatic
49 resizes by temporarily disabling size hints.
50 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
51 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
52 as mouse reporting.
53 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
54 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
55 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
56 droppings when urxvt viewed the scorllback buffer.
57
589.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
59 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
60 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
61 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
62 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
63 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend
64 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
65 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
66 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
67 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
68 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
69 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
70 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
71 help working window managers as well.
72 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
73 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
74 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
75 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
76 from the toplevel window to the children.
77 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
78 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
79 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
80 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
81
829.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
83 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
84 - fix build with !xft.
85 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
86
879.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
88 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
89 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
90 received" problem, again :)
91 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
92
939.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
94 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
95 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
96 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintaienrs
97 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
98 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
99 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
100 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
101 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
102 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
103 channels or background images are used.
104 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
105 till the first event arrives. or so.
106 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
107 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
108 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
109 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
110 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
111 resets the terminal.
112 - scrollbar code cleanups.
113 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
114 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
115 - updated to libev 3.0.
116
1178.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
118 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
119 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
120 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
121 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
122 would not clear it visually in another.
123 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
124 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
125 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
126 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
127 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
128 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
129
1308.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
131 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
132 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
133 effects.
134 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
135 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
136 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
137 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
138 text was visible.
139 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
140 some minor improvements.
141 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
142 display and not once per terminal window.
143 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
144
1458.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
146 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
147 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
148 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
149
1508.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
151 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
152 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
153 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
154 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
155 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
156 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
157 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
158
1598.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
160 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
161

163 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
164 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
165 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
166 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
167 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
168 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
169 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
170 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internaly using :root op in pixmap
171 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
172 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
173 - parallel builds should work once more.
174
