35 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
36 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the

40 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
41 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line

67
689.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
69 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
70 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
71 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
72 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
73 Mikachu).
74 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
75 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
76 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
77 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
78 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
79 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
80 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
81 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
82 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
83 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
84 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
85 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
86 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
87 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
88 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
89 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
90 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
91 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
92 - update to libptytty 1.3.
93 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
94 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
95 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
96 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
97 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
98 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
99 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
100 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
101 in need of fixing. go figure.
102 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
103 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
104 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
105 the new ->selection_screen method.
106 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
107 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).

112
1139.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
114 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
115 - updates libev to 3.48.
116 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
117 when a window was closed.
118 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
119 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
120 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
121 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
122 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
123 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
124 makes copy&paste work.
125 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
126 no longer apply.
127 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
128 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
129 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
130 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
131 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
132 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
133 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
134 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
135 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
136 the only known workaround.
137 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
138 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
139 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
140 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
141 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
142 disabling size hints.
143 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
144 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
145 as mouse reporting.
146 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
147 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
148 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
149 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
150 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
151 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
152 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
153 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
154 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
155 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
156 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
157 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
158
1599.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
160 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
161 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
162 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
163 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
164 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
165 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
166 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
167 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
168 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
169 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
170 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
171 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
172 help working window managers as well.
173 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
174 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
175 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
176 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
177 from the toplevel window to the children.
178 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
179 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
180 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
181 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
182
1839.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
184 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
185 - fix build with !xft.
186 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
187
1889.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
189 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
190 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
191 received" problem, again :)
192 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
193
1949.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
195 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
196 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
197 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
198 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
199 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
200 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
201 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
202 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
203 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
204 channels or background images are used.
205 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
206 till the first event arrives. or so.
207 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
208 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
209 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
210 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
211 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
212 resets the terminal.
213 - scrollbar code cleanups.
214 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
215 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
216 - updated to libev 3.0.
217
2188.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
219 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
220 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
221 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
222 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
223 would not clear it visually in another.
224 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
225 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
226 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
227 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
228 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
229 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
230
2318.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
232 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
233 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
234 effects.
235 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
236 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
237 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
238 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
239 text was visible.
240 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
241 some minor improvements.
242 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
243 display and not once per terminal window.
244 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
245
2468.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
247 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
248 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
249 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
250
2518.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
252 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
253 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
254 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
255 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
256 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
257 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
258 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
259
2608.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
261 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
262
2638.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
264 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
265 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
266 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
267 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
268 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
269 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
270 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
271 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
272 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
273 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
274 - parallel builds should work once more.
275
2768.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
277 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
278 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
279 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
280 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
281 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
282 missing DISPLAY.
283 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
284 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
285 - updated io_manager.
286
2878.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
288 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
289 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
290 /usr/X11R6/lib.
291 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
292 patch by Sasha Vasko.
293 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
294 (patch by Philip Paeps).
295 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
296 (patch by Mikachu).
297 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
298 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
299 digit (exg).
300 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
301 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
302 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
303 extension (tpope).
304 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
305 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
306 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
307 problems.
308
3098.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
310 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
311 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
312 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
313 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
314 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
315 (found by Aiviru).
316 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
317 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
318 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
319 case to work around for :/
320 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
321 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
322 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
323 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
324 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
325 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
326 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
327 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
328 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
329 Paskevich).
330 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
331 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
332 - update libptytty.
333 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
334 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
335 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
336 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
337 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
338 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
339 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
340 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
341 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
342
3438.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
344 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
345 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
346 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
347 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
348 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
349 Reported by Takano Akio.
350 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
351 reported by exg.
352 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
353 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
354 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
355 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
356
3578.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
358 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
359 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
360 circumstances (reported by exg).
361 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
362 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
363 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
364 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
365 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
366 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
367 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
368 - update to libptytty-1.0.
369 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
370 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
371 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
372 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
373 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
374 bug #143985).
375 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
376 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
377 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
378 - manpage fix by exg.
379
3807.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
381 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
382 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
383 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
384 it does! :->
385 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
386 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
387
3887.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
389 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
390 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
391 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
392 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
393 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
394 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
395 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
396 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
397 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
398 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
399 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
400 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
401 uppercase character.
402 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
403 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
404 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
405 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
406 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
407 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
408 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
409 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
410 generic osc_seq.
411 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
412 were invoked recursively.
413 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
414 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
415 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
416 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
417 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
418 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
419 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
420 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
421 by omatunto_.
422 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
423 follow C++ closely enough.
424 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
425 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
426 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
427 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
428
4297.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
430 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
431 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
432 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
433 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
434 click, and eats the click.
435 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
436 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
437 refresh bugs please.
438 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
439 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
440 improve size hint setting.
441 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
442 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
443 to correctly position their preedit window.
444 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
445 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
446 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
447 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
448 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
449 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
450 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
451 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
452 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
453 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
454 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
455 (reported by Paco-Paco).
456 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
457 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
458 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
459
4607.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
461 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
462 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
463 resource value.
464 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
465 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
466 relevant tab window.
467 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
468 (initial patch by hednod).
469 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
470 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
471 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
472 the benefit of automove-background.
473 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
474 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
475 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
476 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
477 __linux__.
478 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
479 the colour components.
480 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
481 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
482 - more colour rtt optimisations.
483 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
484 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
485 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
486 - minor libptytty update.
487
4887.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
489 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
490 detection:
491 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
492 - overlap detection was improved.
493 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
494 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
495 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
496 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
497 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
498 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
499 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
500 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
501 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
502 broken.
503 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
504 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
505 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
506 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
507 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
508 (patch by Paco-Paco).
509 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
510 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
511 an "[alpha]" prefix.
512 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
513 transparent. Long Live Xft!
514 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
515 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
516 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
517 on a pseudocolor screen.
518 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
519 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
520 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
521 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
522 - small configure updates.
523 - further RTT optimisations.
524 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
525 the debian package.
526 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
527 but much newer than the old one.
528
5297.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
530 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
531 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
532 - small configure updates for libptytty.
533 - fixed version options: line output.
534 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
535
5367.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
537 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
538 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
539 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
540 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
541 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
542 selection extension.
543 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
544 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
545 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
546 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
547 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
548 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
549 needs the careful rendering mode.
550 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
551 too wide and needs careful mode.
552 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
553 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
554 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
555 atoms only once per display.
556 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
557 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
558 xterm.
