32 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
33 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
34 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
35 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
36 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
37 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
38 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
39 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
40 characters other than first one in the selected cell
41 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
42 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
43 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
44 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
45 (found by Mikachu).

47 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
48 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
49 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
50 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
51 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
52 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).

62 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
63 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
64 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
65 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
66 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
67 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
68 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
69 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects

78
799.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
80 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
81 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
82 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
83 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
84 Mikachu).
85 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
86 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
87 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
88 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
89 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
90 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
91 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
92 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
93 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
94 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
95 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
96 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
97 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
98 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
99 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
100 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
101 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
102 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
103 - update to libptytty 1.3.
104 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
105 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
106 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
107 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
108 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
109 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
110 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
111 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
112 in need of fixing. go figure.
113 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
114 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
115 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
116 the new ->selection_screen method.
117 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
118 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
119 - fix printpipe data output (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
120 - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection.
121 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.

123
1249.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
125 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
126 - updates libev to 3.48.
127 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
128 when a window was closed.
129 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
130 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
131 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
132 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
133 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
134 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
135 makes copy&paste work.
136 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
137 no longer apply.
138 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
139 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
140 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
141 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
142 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
143 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
144 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
145 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
146 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
147 the only known workaround.
148 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
149 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
150 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
151 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
152 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
153 disabling size hints.
154 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
155 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
156 as mouse reporting.
157 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
158 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
159 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
160 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
161 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
162 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
163 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
164 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
165 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
166 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
167 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
168 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
169
1709.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
171 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
172 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
173 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
174 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
175 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
176 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
177 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
178 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
179 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
180 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
181 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
182 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
183 help working window managers as well.
184 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
185 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
186 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
187 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
188 from the toplevel window to the children.
189 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
190 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
191 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
192 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
193
1949.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
195 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
196 - fix build with !xft.
197 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
198
1999.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
200 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
201 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
202 received" problem, again :)
203 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
204
2059.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
206 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
207 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
208 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
209 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
210 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
211 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
212 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
213 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
214 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
215 channels or background images are used.
216 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
217 till the first event arrives. or so.
218 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
219 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
220 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
221 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
222 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
223 resets the terminal.
224 - scrollbar code cleanups.
225 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
226 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
227 - updated to libev 3.0.
228
2298.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
230 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
231 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
232 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
233 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
234 would not clear it visually in another.
235 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
236 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
237 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
238 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
239 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
240 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
241
2428.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
243 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
244 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
245 effects.
246 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
247 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
248 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
249 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
250 text was visible.
251 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
252 some minor improvements.
253 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
254 display and not once per terminal window.
255 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
256
2578.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
258 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
259 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
260 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
261
2628.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
263 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
264 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
265 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
266 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
267 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
268 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
269 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
270
2718.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
272 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
273
2748.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
275 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
276 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
277 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
278 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
279 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
280 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
281 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
282 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
283 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
284 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
285 - parallel builds should work once more.
286
2878.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
288 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
289 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
290 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
291 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
292 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
293 missing DISPLAY.
294 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
295 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
296 - updated io_manager.
297
2988.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
299 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
300 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
301 /usr/X11R6/lib.
302 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
303 patch by Sasha Vasko.
304 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
305 (patch by Philip Paeps).
306 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
307 (patch by Mikachu).
308 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
309 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
310 digit (exg).
311 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
312 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
313 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
314 extension (tpope).
315 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
316 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
317 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
318 problems.
319
3208.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
321 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
322 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
323 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
324 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
325 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
326 (found by Aiviru).
327 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
328 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
329 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
330 case to work around for :/
331 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
332 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
333 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
334 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
335 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
336 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
337 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
338 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
339 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
340 Paskevich).
341 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
342 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
343 - update libptytty.
344 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
345 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
346 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
347 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
348 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
349 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
350 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
351 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
352 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
353
3548.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
355 - ｹﾘｽﾏｽﾌ゚ﾚｾ゙ﾝﾄ - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
356 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
357 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
358 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
359 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
360 Reported by Takano Akio.
361 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
362 reported by exg.
363 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
364 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
365 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
366 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
367
3688.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
369 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
370 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
371 circumstances (reported by exg).
372 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
373 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
374 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
375 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
376 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
377 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
378 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
379 - update to libptytty-1.0.
380 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
381 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
382 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
383 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
384 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
385 bug #143985).
386 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
387 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
388 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
389 - manpage fix by exg.
390
3917.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
392 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
393 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
394 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
395 it does! :->
396 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
397 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
398
3997.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
400 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
401 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
402 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
403 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
404 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
405 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
406 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
407 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
408 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
409 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
410 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
411 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
412 uppercase character.
413 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
414 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
415 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
416 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
417 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
418 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
419 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
420 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
421 generic osc_seq.
422 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
423 were invoked recursively.
424 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
425 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
426 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
427 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
428 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
429 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
430 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
431 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
432 by omatunto_.
433 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
434 follow C++ closely enough.
435 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
436 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
437 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
438 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
439
4407.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
441 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
442 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
443 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
444 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
445 click, and eats the click.
446 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
447 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
448 refresh bugs please.
449 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
450 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
451 improve size hint setting.
452 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
453 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
454 to correctly position their preedit window.
455 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
456 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
457 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
458 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
459 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
460 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
461 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
462 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
463 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
464 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
465 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
466 (reported by Paco-Paco).
467 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
468 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
469 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
470
4717.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
472 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
473 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
474 resource value.
475 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
476 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
477 relevant tab window.
478 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
479 (initial patch by hednod).
480 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
481 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
482 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
483 the benefit of automove-background.
484 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
485 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
486 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
487 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
488 __linux__.
489 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
490 the colour components.
491 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
492 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
493 - more colour rtt optimisations.
494 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
495 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
496 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
497 - minor libptytty update.
498
4997.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
500 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
501 detection:
502 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
503 - overlap detection was improved.
504 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
505 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
506 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
507 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
508 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
509 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
510 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
511 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
512 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
513 broken.
514 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
515 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
516 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
517 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
518 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
519 (patch by Paco-Paco).
520 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
521 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
522 an "[alpha]" prefix.
523 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
524 transparent. Long Live Xft!
525 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
526 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
527 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
528 on a pseudocolor screen.
529 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
530 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
531 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
532 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
533 - small configure updates.
534 - further RTT optimisations.
535 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
536 the debian package.
537 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
538 but much newer than the old one.
539
5407.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
541 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
542 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
543 - small configure updates for libptytty.
544 - fixed version options: line output.
545 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
546
5477.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
548 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
549 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
550 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
551 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
552 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
553 selection extension.
554 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
555 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
556 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
557 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
558 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
559 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
560 needs the careful rendering mode.
561 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
562 too wide and needs careful mode.
563 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
564 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
565 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
566 atoms only once per display.
567 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
568 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
569 xterm.
570
5717.2 Sun Jan 22 21:58:16 CET 2006
572 - bugfix: urxvt (not urxvtd) did not correctly handle multiple
573 environments necessary, which resulted in segfaults within
574 getenv (reproducable: urxvt -fn 9x15, open a menu once,
575 ctrl-shift-672c).
576 - bugfix: the selection speedup in in 7.1 unfortunately caused
577 non-ascii characters to enlarge/move the selection.
578 - bugfix: resizing sometimes leaked lines from the secondary to
579 the primary screen.
580 - bugfix: reducing window size while large amounts of text were output
581 could lead to an assertion failure.
582 - added "tabbed" extension that provides a crude tabbed terminal.
583 - added "readline" extension that allows cursor positioning
584 via mouse clicks.
585 - now it is possible to insert the value of the CLIPBOARD selection
586 with shift - mouse button 2.
587 - fixed the automove-background extension to ignore coordinates
588 in non-synthetic events.
589 - created a separate libpty for portable and secure
590 pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling, and include it in rxvt-unicode.
591 - the non-terminfo visual bell now works asynchronously, so
592 continuous ASCI BELs in one terminal do no longer monopolise the
593 whole urxvt[d] process.
594 - support some *BSD makes (for the time being, gnu make is a safe bet).
595 - work around bugs in FreeBSD's gcc.
596 - implemented some *BSD fixes in configure.
597 - removed support for obsolete offix dnd protocol.
598
5997.1 Thu Jan 19 20:25:34 CET 2006
600 - setuid/setgid operation is now _encouraged_: security has been
601 improved by moving privileged operations into a separate process
602 and permanently dropping privileges within the terminal. This
603 makes it possible to remove security checks from the perl code
604 and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to run with
605 special privileges.
606 - perl taint checking disabled, as urxvt no longer runs setuid/setgid
607 itself.
608 - new perl extension automove-background that can be used to get
609 the same effect as pseudo-transparency with any pixmap.
610 - new perl extension example: perl/selection-pastebin, can be used to
611 e.g. upload the selection to a webserver and generate a url, or
612 similar stuff.
613 - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
614 span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0. Helps
615 for programs displaying a status line at the bottom.
616 - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
617 - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
618 code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
619 :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
620 - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
621 being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
622 - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,
623 as kwin puts our windows behind the terminal (what a shoddy wm).
624 - fixed struct utmp check in configure for OpenBSD.
625 - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
626 (Emanuele Giaquinta=exg).
627 - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
628 to set the window title.
629 - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
630 some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
631 at the wrong time.
632 - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
633 anymore.
634 - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
635 - nuked QNX support.
636 - made some fixes to xpm offset and scaling code.
637 - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
638 - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
639 - iom extended to support listening for child exits.
640
6417.0 Fri Jan 13 14:02:18 CET 2006
642 - added sections for DISTRIBUTION MAINTAINERS and about
643 SETUID/SETGID to the FAQ.
644 - selection, searchable-scrollback, selection-popup and
645 option-popup extensions enabled by default.
646 - increased xft drawing speed for problematic fonts. The effect
647 will likely be small as 99% of the xft slowness is server-related.
648 - perl: much increased functionality, better overlays, popup support
649 and much much more.
650 - perl: urxvt::line now can set via ->t and ->r.
651 - perl: changed interpretation of --perl-ext-common and -pe.
652 - perl: finally implemented --perl-eval.
653 - perl: non-blocking anyevent support.
654 - perl: run tainted and ignore perl-eval/perl-lib if started
655 setuid/setgid.
656 - free the resource database: this plugs a massive memory leak. As a
657 side effect, it also gets rid of XGetDefault calls.
658 - free one of the cursors, fixes a small memory leak.
659 - built-in (as opposed to terminfos) visual bell was broken/too fast.
660 - applied minor cleanups by Ladislav Michnovic.
661 - applied pty handling cleanups and improvements (Emanuele Giaquinta).
662 - mark-urls launch-on-click by jepler.
663 - removed "small" resource parsing function, as it wasn't really
664 compatible, and not really small either.
665 - removed PATH_ENV and PATH file search support.
666 - removed support for locale-specific app-defaults file.
667 - fixed a bug where out-of-bounds colour sequences could lead
668 to crashes.
669 - limit colour changing to the standard 88 palette instead of all
670 colours.
671 - XTerm_Color01 sequence returned wrong results in query mode.
672 - iom.C now checks against destructed io_manager when unregistering.
673
6746.3 Wed Jan 4 22:37:10 CET 2006
675 - SECURITY FIX: on systems using openpty, permissions were
676 not correctly updated on the tty device and were left as
677 world-readable and world-writable (likely in original rxvt,
678 too), and were not restored properly. Affected are only
679 systems where non-unix ptys were used (such as most BSDs, not
680 GNU/Linux). (found, patched and debugged by Ryan Beasley).
681 - meta8 support was forcefully enabled in most configurations.
682 restored configurability of this (useless) feature (reported
683 by Mikachu).
684 - optionally embed a perl interpreter, which can be used for more
685 intelligent/customized selection support, visual feedback,
686 menus, tabs etc. See the the urxvtperl manpage, the -pe option,
687 perl*-resources and keysym resources. Not everything is there yet.
688 - try to be more clever about differing font sizes and their ascent.
689 Not guarenteed to work, but works better in most cases now.
690 - fix directory permissions on install.
691 - implemented option to disable built-in line drawing characters
692 and fall back to the font ones (patch by Martin Pohlack).
693 - disabled sched_yield support: the linux version is just too useless
694 (it schedules nice'd processes before the own one for extended
695 periods). Too bad, it could reduce system time by a factor of 5 here.
696
6976.2 Mon Jan 2 16:03:01 CET 2006
698 - implemented intensityStyles option which enables/disables bold/blink
699 selecting high intensity foreground/background colours, suggested by
700 Chuck Blake.
701 - move iso14755 character feedback box out of the way if it would
702 obscure the mouse cursor position.
703 - replaced callback.h by a fixed version from gvpe that correctly
704 returns the callback result (affects new -pty-fd semantics in urxvtc
705 on a few architectures). Reported by darix.
706 - include one trailing space in rectangular selections to indicate
707 the inserted newline (yeah, weird, but visually more pleasing).
708 - try to use sched_yield to (drastically) improve terminal data
709 transfer efficiency.
710 - further minor cleanups.
711
7126.1 Tue Dec 27 13:23:40 CET 2005
713 - update iso8859-7 table (euro and drachma round-trip et al.).
714 - fix a crash when the selection scrolls out of the scrollback
715 while the user still drags.
716 - selections that were partially scrolled out of the window were
717 not drawn correctly.
718 - lines newly scrolled in were not initialized properly, leading
719 to extremely long lines and (hopefully) some segfaults.
720 - iso14755 overlay position was wrong.
721 - iso14755 overlay now displays rendition info, too.
722 - use unicode white space class instead of hardcoded values for
723 stripping whitespace.
724 - do whitespace stripping on rectangular selections.
725 - slight cleanups in src/features.h.
726
7276.0 Sat Dec 24 13:58:56 CET 2005
728 - make it compile without SMART_RESIZE again.
729 - enable slow link support by default.
730 - fix relative cursor-positioning not respecting scrolling regions
731 (also a bug in original rxvt).
732 - initialize termios structure to zero when fetching it fails
733 (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84647 for a
734 partial patch).
735 - bump max columns/rows to 10000 each.
736 - bump max savelines to 10000000.
737 - -pty-fd now passes the urxvtc fd to the urxvtd process.
738 - avoid linking against -lnsl/-lsocket/-lxpg4 unless neccessary.
739 - major code cleanup (still not complete, though).
740 - implement -hold option.
741 - _major_ rewrite of internal buffer handling:
742 - re-flow on resize, lines get wrapped instead of winged.
743 - circular line buffer (substantially speeds up scrolling).
744 - slightly less code + data memory usage per terminal.
745 - slight overall speed improvements.
746 - considerably improved code clarity.
747 - partial-screen scrolls no longer end up in the scrollback
748 buffer.
749
7505.9 Sat Dec 17 21:53:17 CET 2005
751 - fix a bug in the menu code of unknown impact, found by darix.
752 - clean up signal handling to be global, not per terminal
753 (matters only for rxvtd).
754 - fix small typoe in rxvt.1 (found by Mike Fabian).
755 - don't crash when broken xft/fontconfig/freetype versions return
756 bogus data, ignore the xft font instead (experienced on suse).
757
7585.8 Tue Oct 25 22:21:45 CEST 2005
759 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
760 If you want the old behaviour, try:
761 configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
762 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
763 the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
764 percentage by 100-percentage.
765 - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
766 - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
767 the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
768 synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
769 windows.
770 - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
771 bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
772 - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
773 - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
774 - replaced INSTALL file.
775
7765.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
16 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd. 777 - implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.

782 - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
783 could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
784 refreshes in these cases (also a problem in original rxvt).
