| 21 | TODO: skipscroll option |
22 | - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap. |
| 22 | TODO: really enable libafterimage by default (6mb => 10mb rss without using it)? |
23 | - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects |
| 23 | TODO: document -blr units, and possibly fix blur (20 seems to be about 3 pixels, |
24 | when a window was closed. |
| 24 | 80 seems to be about 3 pixels, too, just much slower). |
25 | - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside |
| 25 | TODO: when window partially off-screen, -blr does not have any effect anymore. |
26 | scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar). |
| 26 | TODO: rid of global dpy variable. |
27 | - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts |
| 27 | 8. |
28 | when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar). |
|
|
29 | - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line |
|
|
30 | when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but |
|
|
31 | makes copy&paste work. |
|
|
32 | - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they |
|
|
33 | no longer apply. |
|
|
34 | - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out. |
|
|
35 | - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change. |
|
|
36 | - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa. |
|
|
37 | - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters. |
|
|
38 | - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
39 | - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path. |
|
|
40 | - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal |
|
|
41 | monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text. |
|
|
42 | - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking |
|
|
43 | the only known workaround. |
|
|
44 | - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt). |
|
|
45 | - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally, |
|
|
46 | to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks. |
|
|
47 | - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that errornously resize |
|
|
48 | client windows on hint property updates by temporarily |
|
|
49 | 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 scrollback buffer. |
|
|
57 | - use current rendition style in DCH sequence. |
|
|
58 | - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset. |
|
|
59 | - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta). |
|
|
60 | - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like. |
|
|
61 | - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing |
|
|
62 | overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves). |
|
|
63 | - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup |
|
|
64 | (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar). |
|
|
65 | |
|
|
66 | 9.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008 |
|
|
67 | - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory. |
|
|
68 | - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory. |
|
|
69 | - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant |
|
|
70 | header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz). |
|
|
71 | - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend |
|
|
72 | with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems. |
|
|
73 | - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one |
|
|
74 | after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the |
|
|
75 | issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal |
|
|
76 | sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems. |
|
|
77 | - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around |
|
|
78 | broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should |
|
|
79 | help working window managers as well. |
|
|
80 | - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata). |
|
|
81 | - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K. |
|
|
82 | - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd. |
|
|
83 | - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources |
|
|
84 | from the toplevel window to the children. |
|
|
85 | - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries. |
|
|
86 | - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above. |
|
|
87 | - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY. |
|
|
88 | - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty. |
|
|
89 | |
|
|
90 | 9.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008 |
|
|
91 | - the "exg makes everybody happy" release. |
|
|
92 | - fix build with !xft. |
|
|
93 | - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great). |
|
|
94 | |
|
|
95 | 9.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008 |
|
|
96 | - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required |
|
|
97 | with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is |
|
|
98 | received" problem, again :) |
|
|
99 | - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering. |
|
|
100 | |
|
|
101 | 9.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008 |
|
|
102 | - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called |
|
|
103 | with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would |
|
|
104 | report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintaienrs |
|
|
105 | instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices). |
|
|
106 | - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn. |
|
|
107 | - correctly clear xft character background in all cases. |
|
|
108 | - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004). |
|
|
109 | - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt |
|
|
110 | work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha |
|
|
111 | channels or background images are used. |
|
|
112 | - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank |
|
|
113 | till the first event arrives. or so. |
|
|
114 | - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again. |
|
|
115 | - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now. |
|
|
116 | - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11. |
|
|
117 | - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state). |
|
|
118 | - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and |
|
|
119 | resets the terminal. |
|
|
120 | - scrollbar code cleanups. |
|
|
121 | - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting. |
|
|
122 | - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format. |
|
|
123 | - updated to libev 3.0. |
|
|
124 | |
|
|
125 | 8.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007 |
|
|
126 | - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window |
|
|
127 | when the command exited but only on the next X event. |
|
|
128 | - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode. |
|
|
129 | - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window |
|
|
130 | would not clear it visually in another. |
|
|
131 | - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates |
|
|
132 | and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu). |
|
|
133 | - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu). |
|
|
134 | - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu). |
|
|
135 | - minor code reorganisations and cleanups. |
|
|
136 | - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded. |
|
|
137 | |
|
|
138 | 8.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007 |
|
|
139 | - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating |
|
|
140 | options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting |
|
|
141 | effects. |
|
|
142 | - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the |
|
|
143 | symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also |
|
|
144 | fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing. |
|
|
145 | - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking |
|
|
146 | text was visible. |
|
|
147 | - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with |
|
|
148 | some minor improvements. |
|
|
149 | - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per |
|
|
150 | display and not once per terminal window. |
|
|
151 | - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations. |
|
|
152 | |
|
|
153 | 8.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007 |
|
|
154 | - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes |
|
|
155 | when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended). |
|
|
156 | - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills. |
|
|
157 | |
|
|
158 | 8.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007 |
|
|
159 | - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it |
|
|
160 | seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys. |
|
|
161 | - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and |
|
|
162 | especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms: |
|
|
163 | urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity). |
|
|
164 | - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing. |
|
|
165 | - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one. |
|
|
166 | |
|
|
167 | 8.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007 |
|
|
168 | - make it compile with --disable-transparency. |
|
|
169 | |
|
|
170 | 8.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007 |
|
|
171 | - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report. |
|
|
172 | - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to |
|
|
173 | the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev). |
|
|
174 | - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars). |
|
|
175 | - fix memory leak in pixmap code. |
|
|
176 | - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback |
|
|
177 | on (typical) 64 bit systems. |
|
|
178 | - automove-background functionality re-implemented internaly using :root op in pixmap |
|
|
179 | geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root" |
|
|
180 | - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore. |
|
|
181 | - parallel builds should work once more. |
