40 same height but different ascent.
41 - add DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
42 - implement cvvis in terminfo as blinking cursor, to distinguish it
43 from cnorm (emacs uses cvvis which is commonly a blinking cursor).
44 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
45 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
46 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
47 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
48 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
49 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
50 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
51 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
52 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
53 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).
54 - new 'eval' extension to evaluate arbitrary perl code with keysym
55 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
56 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
57 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
58 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
59 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
60 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
61 associated to a matched pattern.
62 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
63 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
64 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
65 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
66 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
67 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
68 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
69 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
70 by Thomas Otto).
71 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
72 way properly.
73 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
74 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
75 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
76 containing a space and with the same bg and fg color, red hat bug
77 #830236.
78
799.20 Sat Apr 26 16:22:27 CEST 2014
80 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
81 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
82 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
83 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
84 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
85 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
86 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
87 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
88 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
89 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
90 the CLIPBOARD selection.
91 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
92 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
93 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
94 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
95 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
96 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
97
989.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
99 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
100 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
101 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
102 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
103 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
104 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
105 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
106 function.
107 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
108 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
109
1109.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
111 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
112
1139.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
114 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
115 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
116 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
117 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
118 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
119 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
120 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
121 Münnich).
122 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
123 are disabled.
124
1259.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
126 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
127 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
128 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
129 Hemmer).
130 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
131 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
132 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
133 patch by Jan Larres).
134 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
135 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
136 as diagnosed by clang.
137 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
138 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
139 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
140 nickfailure@gmail.com).
141 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
142 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
143 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
144 for details.
145 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
146 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
147 which show up in -help etc.
148 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
149 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
150 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
151 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
152 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
153 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
154 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
155 - remove support for libafterimage.
156 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
157 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
158 libptytty instead.
159 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
160 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
161 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
162 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
163 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
164
1659.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
166 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
167 thinks thats an error.
168 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
169 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
170 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
171 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
172 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
173 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
174 and destination in composite operations.
175 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
176 for tabs.
177 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
178 Sung Pae).
179 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
180 - fix -C option on solaris.
181
1829.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
183 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
184 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
185 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
186 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
187 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
188 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
189 to disable both scaling and tiling.
190 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
191 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
192 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
193 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
194 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
195 in the next release.
196 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
197 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
198 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
199 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
200 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
201 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
202 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
203 Filardo).
204 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
205 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
206 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
207 the cell size.
208 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
209 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
210 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
211 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
212 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
213 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
214 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
215 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
216 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
217 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
218 (Bob Farrell).
219 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
220 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
221 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
222 Pohlack).
223 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
224 Michael Stapelberg).
225 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
226 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
227 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
228 edge (Mikachu).
229 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
230 handle exceptions better.
231 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
232 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
233
2349.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
235 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
236 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
237 support the UTF8_STRING target.
238 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
239 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
240 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
241 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
242 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
243 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
244 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
245 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
246 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
247 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
248
2499.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
250 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
251 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
252 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
253 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
254 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
255 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
256 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
257 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
258 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
259 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
260 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
261 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
262 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
263 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
264 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
265 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
266 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
267 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
268 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
269 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
270 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
271 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
272 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
273 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
274 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
275 with gcc.
276 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
277 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
278 - document 'thickness' resource.
279 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
280 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
281 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
282 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
283 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
284 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
285 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
286 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
287 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
288 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
289 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
290
2919.10 Mon Dec 13 17:43:52 CET 2010
292 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
293 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
294 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
295 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
296 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
297 failures with gcc 4.5.
298 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
299 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
300 both, in Xft 2.2.0 these libs are private
301 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
302 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
303 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
304 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
305 - fix minor memory leaks in urxvt and urxvtd.
306 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
307 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
308 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
309 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
310 and has fewer limitations.
311 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
312 startup for the upper left corner.
313 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
314 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
315 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
316 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
317 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
318 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
319 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
320 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
321 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
322 - fix build on XFree86.
323 - dynamically number options according to compiletime requirements.
324 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
325 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
326 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
327
