1TODO: do font request caching, might help rxvtd on some machines 1rxvt-unicode changelog <= google-friendly title
2TODO: safer command: keymap processing. 2
3TODO: init_secondary serves what purpose? maybe move it to earlier startup phase and re-think
4TODO: xcopyarea pass broken, fix and improve
5TODO: event mechanism that replaces on_user_command with something more scalable.
6TODO: slipwheeling needs a keyboard grab to get key release events.
7TODO: overlays collide with the way the out-of-focus cursor is being drawn
3TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts 8TODO: "slow" rendering mode for bidi and scripts, pango!
4TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc. 9TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
5WISH: keyboard modification via esc-sequences. 10TODO: slow drag selection on remote display - other things seem fast (rxvt illness, motion hints?)
6WISH: line-rewrapping on resize 11TODO: better resource handling for tabbar in -pe tabbed.
7WISH: searchable backlog 12WISH: investigate -pe tabbed -g 80x25 being 23 not 24 or 25 lines
8WISH: meta-tagging of data by regex (my dream project) 13 => when setting the constraints, the wm might (correctly)
9WISH: double-click: more intelligent (urls etc.) 14 resize the outer window, which might result in a smaller window overall.

25
26 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
27 (found by Mikachu).
28 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
29 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
30 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
31
329.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
33 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
34 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
35 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
36 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
37 Mikachu).
38 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
39 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
40 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
41 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
42 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
43 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
44 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
45 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
46 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
47 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
48 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
49 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
50 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
51 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
52 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
53 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
54 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
55 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
56 - update to libptytty 1.3.
57 - replace macosx-pastebin by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
58 the old version to macosx-pastebin-native.
59 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
60 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
61 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
62 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
63 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
64 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
65 in need of fixing. go figure.
66 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
67 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
68 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
69 the new ->selection_screen method.
70 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
71 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
72 - fix printpipe data output (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
73 - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection.
74 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.
75 - updated compose tables to unicode 5.2.0.
76
779.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
78 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
79 - updates libev to 3.48.
80 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
81 when a window was closed.
82 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
83 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
84 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
85 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
86 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
87 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
88 makes copy&paste work.
89 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
90 no longer apply.
91 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
92 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
93 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
94 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
95 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
96 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
97 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
98 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
99 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
100 the only known workaround.
101 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
102 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
103 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
104 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
105 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
106 disabling size hints.
107 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
108 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
109 as mouse reporting.
110 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
111 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
112 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
113 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
114 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
115 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
116 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
117 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
118 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
119 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
120 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
121 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
122
1239.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
124 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
125 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
126 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
127 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
128 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
129 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
130 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
131 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
132 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
133 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
134 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
135 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
136 help working window managers as well.
137 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
138 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
139 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
140 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
141 from the toplevel window to the children.
142 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
143 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
144 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
145 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
146
1479.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
148 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
149 - fix build with !xft.
150 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
151
1529.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
153 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
154 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
155 received" problem, again :)
156 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
157
1589.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
159 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
160 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
161 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
162 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
163 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
164 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
165 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
166 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
167 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
168 channels or background images are used.
169 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
170 till the first event arrives. or so.
171 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
172 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
173 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
174 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
175 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
176 resets the terminal.
177 - scrollbar code cleanups.
178 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
179 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
180 - updated to libev 3.0.
181
1828.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
183 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
184 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
185 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
186 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
187 would not clear it visually in another.
188 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
189 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
190 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
191 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
192 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
193 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
194
1958.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
196 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
197 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
198 effects.
199 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
200 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
201 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
202 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
203 text was visible.
204 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
205 some minor improvements.
206 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
207 display and not once per terminal window.
208 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
209
2108.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
211 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
212 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
213 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
214
2158.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
216 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
217 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
218 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
219 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
220 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
221 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
222 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
223
2248.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
225 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
226
2278.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
228 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
229 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
230 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
231 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
232 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
233 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
234 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
235 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
236 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
237 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
238 - parallel builds should work once more.
239
2408.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
241 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
242 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
243 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
244 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
245 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
246 missing DISPLAY.
247 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
248 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
249 - updated io_manager.
250
2518.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
252 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
253 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
254 /usr/X11R6/lib.
255 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
256 patch by Sasha Vasko.
257 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
258 (patch by Philip Paeps).
259 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
260 (patch by Mikachu).
261 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
262 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
263 digit (exg).
264 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
265 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
266 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
267 extension (tpope).
268 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
269 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
270 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
271 problems.
272
2738.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
274 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
275 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
276 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
277 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
278 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
279 (found by Aiviru).
280 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
281 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
282 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
283 case to work around for :/
284 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
285 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
286 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
287 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
288 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
289 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
290 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
291 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
292 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
293 Paskevich).
294 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
295 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
296 - update libptytty.
297 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
298 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
299 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
300 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
301 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
302 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
303 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
304 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
305 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
306
3078.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
308 - ｹﾘｽﾏｽﾌ゚ﾚｾ゙ﾝﾄ - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
309 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
310 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
311 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
312 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
313 Reported by Takano Akio.
314 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
315 reported by exg.
316 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
317 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
318 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
319 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
320
3218.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
322 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
323 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
324 circumstances (reported by exg).
325 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
326 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
327 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
328 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
329 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
330 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
331 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
332 - update to libptytty-1.0.
333 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
334 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
335 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
336 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
337 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
338 bug #143985).
339 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
340 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
341 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
342 - manpage fix by exg.
343
3447.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
345 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
346 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
347 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
348 it does! :->
349 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
350 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
351
3527.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
353 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
354 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
355 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
356 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
357 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
358 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
359 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
360 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
361 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
362 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
363 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
364 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
365 uppercase character.
366 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
367 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
368 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
369 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
370 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
371 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
372 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
373 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
374 generic osc_seq.
375 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
376 were invoked recursively.
377 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
378 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
379 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
380 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
381 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
382 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
383 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
384 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
385 by omatunto_.
386 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
387 follow C++ closely enough.
388 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
389 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
390 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
391 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
392
3937.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
394 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
395 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
396 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
397 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
398 click, and eats the click.
399 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
400 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
401 refresh bugs please.
402 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
403 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
404 improve size hint setting.
405 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
406 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
407 to correctly position their preedit window.
408 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
409 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
410 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
411 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
412 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
413 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
414 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
415 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
416 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
417 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
418 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
419 (reported by Paco-Paco).
420 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
421 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
422 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
423
4247.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
425 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
426 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
427 resource value.
428 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
429 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
430 relevant tab window.
431 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
432 (initial patch by hednod).
433 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
434 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
435 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
436 the benefit of automove-background.
437 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
438 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
439 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
440 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
441 __linux__.
442 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
443 the colour components.
444 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
445 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
446 - more colour rtt optimisations.
447 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
448 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
449 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
450 - minor libptytty update.
451
4527.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
453 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
454 detection:
455 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
456 - overlap detection was improved.
457 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
458 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
459 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
460 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
461 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
462 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
463 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
464 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
465 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
466 broken.
467 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
468 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
469 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
470 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
471 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
472 (patch by Paco-Paco).
473 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
474 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
475 an "[alpha]" prefix.
476 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
477 transparent. Long Live Xft!
478 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
479 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
480 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
481 on a pseudocolor screen.
482 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
483 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
484 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
485 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
486 - small configure updates.
487 - further RTT optimisations.
488 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
489 the debian package.
490 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
491 but much newer than the old one.
492
4937.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
494 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
495 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
496 - small configure updates for libptytty.
497 - fixed version options: line output.
498 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
499
5007.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
501 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
502 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
503 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
504 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
505 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
506 selection extension.
507 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
508 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
509 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
510 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
511 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
512 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
513 needs the careful rendering mode.
514 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
515 too wide and needs careful mode.
516 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
517 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
518 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
519 atoms only once per display.
520 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
521 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
522 xterm.
523
5247.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
525 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
526 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
527 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
528 ctrl-shift-672c).
529 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
530 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
531 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
532 the primary screen.
533 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
534 could lead to an assertion failure.
535 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
536 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
537 via mouse clicks.
538 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
539 with shift - mouse button 2.
540 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
541 in non-synthetic events.
542 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
543 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
544 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
545 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
546 whole urxvt[d] process.
547 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
548 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
549 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
550 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
551
5527.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
553 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
554 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
555 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
556 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
557 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
558 special privileges.
559 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
560 itself.
561 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
562 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
563 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
564 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
565 similar stuff.
566 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
567 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
568 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
569 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
570 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
571 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
572 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
573 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
574 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
575 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
576 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
577 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
578 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
579 (Emanuele Giaquinta=exg).
580 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
581 to set the window title.
582 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
583 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
584 at the wrong time.
585 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
586 anymore.
587 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
588 - nuked QNX support.
589 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
590 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
591 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
592 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
593
5947.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
595 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
596 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
597 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
598 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
599 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
600 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
601 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
602 and much much more.
603 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
604 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
605 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
606 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
607 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
608 setuid/setgid.
609 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
610 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
611 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
612 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
613 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
614 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
615 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
616 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
617 compatible, and not really small either.
618 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
619 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
620 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
621 to crashes.
622 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
623 colours.
624 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
625 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
626
6276.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
628 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
629 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
630 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
631 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
632 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
633 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
634 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
635 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
636 by Mikachu).
637 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
638 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
639 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
640 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
641 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
642 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
643 - fix directory permissions on install.
644 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
645 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
646 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
647 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
648 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
649
6506.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
651 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
652 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
653 Chuck Blake.
654 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
655 obscure the mouse cursor position.
656 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
657 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
658 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
659 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
660 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
661 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
662 transfer efficiency.
663 - further minor cleanups.
664
6656.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
666 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
667 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
668 while the user still drags.
669 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
670 not drawn correctly.
671 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
672 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
673 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
674 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
675 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
676 stripping whitespace.
677 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
678 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
679
6806.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
681 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
682 - enable slow link support by default.
683 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
684 (also a bug in original rxvt).
685 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
686 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
687 partial patch).
688 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
689 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
690 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
691 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
692 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
693 - implement -hold option.
694 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
695 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
696 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
697 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
698 - slight overall speed improvements.
699 - considerably improved code clarity.
700 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
701 buffer.
702
7035.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
704 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
705 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
706 (matters only for rxvtd).
707 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
708 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
709 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
710
7115.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
712 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
713 If you want the old behaviour, try:
714 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
715 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
716 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
717 percentage by 100-percentage.
718 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
719 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
720 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
721 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
722 windows.
723 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
724 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
725 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
726 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
727 - replaced INSTALL file.
728
7295.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
730 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
731 - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
732 - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
733 not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
734 even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
735 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
736 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
737 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
738
