47 - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in
48 POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit
49 program can be used as a substitute).
50 - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security
51 implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5,
52 and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known.
53 - work around API change breakage in perl 5.28, based on a patch by
54 Roman Bogorodskiy.
55 - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries
56 no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode.
57 - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu).
58 - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler).
59 - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt
60 erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug
61 #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter).
62 - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression.
63 - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video
64 is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it
65 is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler).
66 - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and
67 shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach).
68 - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background
69 extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No
70 configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background
71 ext if any bg image resource/option is present. The old bg image
72 resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to
73 switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background).
74 - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions
75 (patch by Rastislav Barlik).
76 - fix a whole slew of const sillyness, unfortunately forced upon
77 us by ISO C++.
78 - update to libecb 0x00010006.
79 - disable all thread support in ecb.h as we presumably don't need it.
80 - slightly improve Makefile source dependencies.
81
829.22 Sat Jan 23 21:07:33 CET 2016
83 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
84 - add terminfo capabilities for various ctrl and shift-ctrl key variants
85 (patch by Sebastian Schmidt).
86 - fix longstanding core font encoding bug where some character
87 ranges could not be mapped from unicode to the font: affected
88 encodings are big5, gb2312, iso8859-8 (hebrew), jis0201 and
89 ksc5601 (reported by Mikachu).
90 - fix crash when the number of columns is 1 and a 0 width character is inserted
91 (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
92 - fix a crash when parsing an invalid color specification (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
93 - fix a buffer overflow in font name parser (reported by Kuang-che Wu).
94 - do not start blinking cursor if the window is unfocused (reported by
95 Devin J. Pohly).
96 - change the width of underline and i-beam cursor to 2 pixels (based on
97 a patch by Omar Sandoval).
98 - add pointerShape resource to change the mouse pointer shape
99 (based on a patch by Brian Watson).
100 - a keysym resource for a key which is already bound to an
101 action now properly rebinds the key.
102 - do not report mouse motion events if Shift is active (patch by Daniel Hahler).
103 - put the alpha component last in responses to OSC color queries
104 (patch by Benjamin Herr).
105 - the key_press hook is now invoked before processing the
106 event, as documented. This change was done in 9.21 but not
107 announced and fixes debian bugs #511377, #531751 and red hat
108 bug #1105069. Note that this change breaks a few scripts,
109 such as mark-yank-urls, which rely on the previous buggy
110 behaviour that urxvt processes the event (in particular
111 keysym bindings) before invoking the hook.
112 - the tabbed extension now properly refreshes the active tab
113 on a key press when the mouse pointer is outside the terminal
114 window.
115 - add 'lookup_keysym' perl method to lookup the action bound
116 to a key combination.
117 - a key combination bound to 'matcher:select' can now be used
118 to cycle through the matches in matcher.
119 - change perl integer accessors (->width et al.) into mutators.
120
1219.21 Wed Dec 31 14:50:03 CET 2014
122 - the "moa redraw 8-bit british vintage colour management" release.
123 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
124 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
125 same height but different ascent.
126 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
127 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
128 - when xft support was compiled in, colour queries erroneously returned
129 premultiplied values, this also affected internal queries, for example
130 when calculating faded colour. alpha is now divided out when possible,
131 which is more correct but loses colour resolution.
132 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
133 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
134 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
135 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
136 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
137 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
138 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
139 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
140 - document urxvtd's -e/--eval option that was implemented in 9.16,
141 but not documented.
142 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
143 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
144 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
145 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
146 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
147 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
148 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
149 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
150 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
151 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
152 associated to a matched pattern.
153 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
154 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
155 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
156 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
157 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
158 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
159 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
160 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
161 by Thomas Otto).
162 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
163 way properly.
164 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
165 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
166 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
167 containing a space and with the same bg and fg colour, red hat bug
168 #830236.
169 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
170 window/popup has been destroyed already.
171 - removed superfluous 0 digit from sgr terminfo sequence.
172 - greatly improve colour allocation on colour-starved pseudocolour
173 displays to avoid read-write cells instead of simply failing
174 (this is only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
175 - do not free fade colours when not doing fading (this is likely
176 only relevant for antique 8bpp frame buffers).
177 - do not specialcase 2 or 4 colour visuals, leading to
178 simpler and actually more correct code.
179 - hopefully no longer leak colours on !truecolour visuals.
180 - use consistent method names (scr_recolour => scr_recolor).
181 - use simpler (but slightly less bogus) formula for nearest
182 colour choice (this is likely only relevant for antique 8bpp
183 frame buffers).
184 - remove fallback behaviour when initialising colours - the
185 behaviour was inconsistent between startup vs. later and
186 was only effective when valid colours couldn't be allocated.
187
1889.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
189 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
190 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
191 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
192 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
193 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
194 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
195 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
196 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
197 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
198 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
199 the CLIPBOARD selection.
200 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
201 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
202 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
203 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
204 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
205 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
206
2079.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
208 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
209 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
210 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
211 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
212 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
213 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
214 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
215 function.
216 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
217 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
218
2199.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
220 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
221
2229.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
223 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
224 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
225 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
226 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
227 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
228 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
229 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
230 Münnich).
231 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
232 are disabled.
233
2349.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
235 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
236 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
237 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
238 Hemmer).
239 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
240 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
241 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
242 patch by Jan Larres).
243 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
244 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
245 as diagnosed by clang.
246 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
247 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
248 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
249 nickfailure@gmail.com).
250 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
251 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
252 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
253 for details.
254 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
255 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
256 which show up in -help etc.
257 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
258 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
259 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
260 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
261 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
262 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
263 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
264 - remove support for libafterimage.
265 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
266 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
267 libptytty instead.
268 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
269 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
270 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
271 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
272 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
273
2749.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
275 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
276 thinks thats an error.
277 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
278 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
279 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
280 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
281 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
282 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
283 and destination in composite operations.
284 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
285 for tabs.
286 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
287 Sung Pae).
288 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
289 - fix -C option on solaris.
290
2919.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
292 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
293 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
294 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
295 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
296 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
297 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
298 to disable both scaling and tiling.
299 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
300 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
301 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
302 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
303 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
304 in the next release.
305 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
306 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
307 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
308 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
309 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
310 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
311 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
312 Filardo).
313 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
314 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
315 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
316 the cell size.
317 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
318 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
319 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
320 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
321 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
322 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
323 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
324 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
325 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
326 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
327 (Bob Farrell).
328 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
329 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
330 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
331 Pohlack).
332 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
333 Michael Stapelberg).
334 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
335 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
336 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
337 edge (Mikachu).
338 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
339 handle exceptions better.
340 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
341 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
342
3439.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
344 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
345 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
346 support the UTF8_STRING target.
347 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
348 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
349 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
350 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
351 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
352 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
353 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
354 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
355 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
356 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
357
3589.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
359 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
360 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
361 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
362 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
363 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
364 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
365 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
366 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
367 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
368 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
369 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
370 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
371 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
372 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
373 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
374 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
375 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
376 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
377 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
378 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
379 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
380 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
381 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
382 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
383 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
384 with gcc.
385 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
386 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
387 - document 'thickness' resource.
388 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
389 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
390 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
391 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
392 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
393 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
394 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
395 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
396 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
397 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
398 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
399
4009.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
401 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
402 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
403 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
404 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
405 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
406 failures with gcc 4.5.
407 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
408 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
409 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
410 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
411 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
412 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
413 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
414 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
415 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
416 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
417 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
418 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
419 and has fewer limitations.
420 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
421 startup for the upper left corner.
422 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
423 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
424 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
425 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
426 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
427 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
428 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
429 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
430 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
431 - fix build on XFree86.
432 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
433 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
434 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
435 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
436
4379.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
438 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
439 - the bestest release ever.
440 - it was verified that urxvt handles µ and μ correctly.
441 - add support for blending and blurring with XRender (Emanuele Giaquinta).
442 - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta).
443 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
