24http://ue.tst.eu/71d7dbd1fcfeaa7d2a4b96eb957d570c.txt
25 - the "schmorp=north korea dickey=south korea" release.
26 - if options were compiled out, this could lead to the option
27 count to be defined wrongly. This is likely behind the
28 failures with gcc 4.5.
29 - explicitly depend on fontconfig and xrender when xft support
30 is enabled. Although the public Xft api uses types from
31 both, in recent Xft releases these libs are private
32 dependencies only thanks to an idiotic behaviour of
33 pkg-config that was added to workaround cases like this one.
34 Fixes linking when using GNU ld with --as-needed or GNU gold
35 (based on patch by Jan Palus).
36 - fix regression in urxvtd that prevented options from being correctly
37 set (reported by Michal Vaner).
38 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: make OSC 20 simpler and more correct
39 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
40 - implement xterm's horribly broken 1005 mouse reporting mode,
41 and an alternative 1015 mode that works in non-utf-8 locales
42 and has fewer limitations.
43 - fix a possible bug where mouse notifications didn't work after
44 startup for the upper left corner.
45 - implement our own pixbuf to pixmap rendering to get rid of
46 dependency on buggy gdk-pixbuf-xlib. Only truecolor visuals
47 are supported (Emanuele Giaquinta).
48 - apply tinting before shading when both operations are requested.
49 Previously they were intermixed when lightening and the result
50 was inaccurate and confusing. Note that now a black tint yields a
51 completely black image, regardless of shading (Emanuele Giaquinta).
52 - avoid spurious redraws of the bg image when bg is transparent or
53 when using 'root' mode (Emanuele Giaquinta).
54 - fix build on XFree86.
55 - dynamically number option according to compiletime requirements.
56 For the extra saved byte. Or so. Yay.
57 - start options at one, not zero. Wastes a bit per terminal. Maybe.
58 saves 50 instruction bytes. Possibly.
59
609.09 Sat Nov 13 01:39:07 CET 2010
61 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
62 - the bestest release ever.
63 - it was verified that urxvt handles µ and μ correctly.
64 - add support for blending and blurring with XRender (Emanuele Giaquinta).
65 - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta).
66 - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta).
67 - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta).
68 - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta).
69 - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta).
70 - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line
71 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
72 - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten).
73 - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9.
74 - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it
75 is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos).
76 - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to
77 be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05).
78 - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit.
79 - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the
80 characters other than first one in the selected cell
81 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
82 - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime
83 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
84 - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line
85 (found by Mikachu).
86 - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to
87 highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta).
88 - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of
89 highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta).
90 - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video
91 but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta).
92 - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off).
93 - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta).
94 - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room
95 for 256 colours.
96 - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann).
97 - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode.
98 - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all
99 88*88 possible pairs.
100 - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in
101 the 9.07 release but had been forgotten.
102 - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a
103 character (Emanuele Giaquinta).
104 - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column,
105 working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing.
106 - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend
107 selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work
108 on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens).
109 - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects
110 default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for
111 backspacekey was given.
112 - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected.
113 - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking
114 was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances).
115 - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line.
116 - upgrade and port to libev-4.01.
117 - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available).
118
1199.07 Wed Dec 30 07:07:18 CET 2009
120 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
121 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
122 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
123 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
124 Mikachu).
125 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
126 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
127 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
128 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
129 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
130 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
131 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).
132 - avoid redrawing wide characters with combining enabled on every
133 refresh (reported by Mikachu).
134 - fix a typo preventing the ISO-646.1991 character set from being
135 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
136 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
137 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
138 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
139 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
140 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
141 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
142 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
143 - update to libptytty 1.3.
144 - replace macosx-clipboard by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move
145 the old version to macosx-clipboard-native.
146 - document the -uc option (Emanuele Giaquinta).
147 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
148 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
149 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
150 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
151 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
152 in need of fixing. go figure.
153 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
154 - setting the selection from perl will now reset the selection screen
155 to the current screen. the screen can be manipulated using
156 the new ->selection_screen method.
157 - implement --enable-assert configure option and get rid of DEBUG_STRICT
158 (based on patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
159 - fix printpipe data output (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
160 - allow `xxx' quoting style for perl selection.
161 - upgrade to libev-3.9 prerelease.
162 - updated compose tables to unicode 5.2.0.
163
1649.06 Sat Nov 8 17:47:18 CET 2008
165 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo/termcap.
166 - updates libev to 3.48.
167 - the aterm code now frees the as visual and image manager objects
168 when a window was closed.
169 - do not (wrongly) adjust the virtual line length inside
170 scr_insdel_chars/ERASE (Miroslav Lichvar).
171 - fix an issue where wide tab characters caused character shifts
172 when part of them was deleted (tracked down by Miroslav Lichvar).
173 - artificially enlargen the previous character at the end of a line
174 when trying to output a character that doesn't fit. looks ugly, but
175 makes copy&paste work.
176 - remove bogus "setuid/setgid security issues" from rxvt.1.pod, they
177 no longer apply.
178 - the urgency hint is now cleared on both focus in and focus out.
179 - cache urgency hint locally to avoid server rtt on every focus change.
180 - perl 5.10 needs PERL_SYS_INIT3 on hppa.
181 - ignore byte-order marks and do not treat them like combining characters.
182 - fix build issue when CURSOR_BLINK is not defined (Emanuele Giaquinta).
183 - do some µ-optimisations to the character fast path.
184 - use a less cunning, but more robust algorithm to avoid one terminal
185 monopolising the whole process by outputting a lot of text.
186 - try to work around linux first breaking sched_yield and now breaking
187 the only known workaround.
188 - new option -icon to set _NET_WM_ICON (based on patch by Frank Schmitt).
189 - initialise the as visual only on demand, instead of unconditionally,
190 to save memory in the common case of not using visual gimmicks.
191 - try to work around bugs in a few wm's that erroneously resize
192 client windows on hint property updates by temporarily
193 disabling size hints.
194 - implement the DECSTR soft reset sequence and use it for tput init,
195 and make hard RIS and DECSTR both reset more private modes, such
196 as mouse reporting.
197 - redundantly clear mouse reporting and a few other states in
198 tput init/tput reset, for older urxvts.
199 - partial/full clear screens did cause flickering and possibly pixel
200 droppings when urxvt viewed the scrollback buffer.
201 - use current rendition style in DCH sequence.
202 - the 132/80 mode switch no longer forces a screen reset.
203 - add an osc sequence to change the border colour (Emanuele Giaquinta).
204 - new perl extension "overlay-osc", for status displays and the like.
205 - fix some minor cursor drawing issues with overlays by allowing
206 overlays to modify screen flags (to disable the cursor themselves).
207 - work around programs not restoring rstyle before rmcup
208 (analysed by Miroslav Lichvar).
209
2109.05 Sun Jun 15 20:09:20 CEST 2008
211 - new option --cd/chdir to set the starting working directory.
212 - tabbed extension now starts in the "correct" working directory.
213 - work around fedora 9 providing isastream but not the relevant
214 header file for it (report by Tuncer Ayaz).
215 - upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend.
216 with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems.
217 - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one
218 after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth). This fixes the
219 issue of rxvt-unicode not properly displaying text after an illegal
220 sequence on NetBSD and probably other systems.
221 - more intelligent property handling with -pe tabbed, works around
222 broken window managers (kwm et al.), saves bandwidth and should
223 help working window managers as well.
224 - made tabs moveable (based on a patch by Petr Machata).
225 - implement ESC [ 3 K as a more rational alternative to ESC [ 0 K.
226 - support relative paths for RXVT_SOCKET in urxvtd.
227 - the tabbed extension now blindly copies over all (rxvt-) resources
228 from the toplevel window to the children.
229 - better diagnostic on 0x0 window geometries.
230 - update AnyEvent API to version 3.4 and above.
231 - document the default value of :0 for DISPLAY.
232 - rename perl method XChangeWindowProperty to XChangeProperty.
233
2349.02 Tue Jan 29 11:58:36 CET 2008
235 - the "exg makes everybody happy" release.
236 - fix build with !xft.
237 - always compile in plain style scrollbar (simplifies code and looks great).
238
2399.01 Sat Jan 26 20:49:27 CET 2008
240 - be more aggressive about handling X events, this seems to be required
241 with newer xlibs (should fix the "screen stays black until event is
242 received" problem, again :)
243 - add buffered resource to control xft double-buffering.
244
2459.0 Fri Jan 25 19:34:04 CET 2008
246 - fix a crash bug where urxvtd would crash when urxvtc was called
247 with wrong arguments (I wish debian maintainers in general would
248 report bugs and their proposed fixes to the original package maintainers
249 instead of sitting on them for good measure to see if anybody notices).
250 - drawing xft compose characters was causing garbage to be drawn.
251 - correctly clear xft character background in all cases.
252 - implement bracketed paste mode (xterm private mode 2004).
253 - improve documentation on alpha channel handling, make urxvt
254 work better on servers lacking the RENDER extension when alpha
255 channels or background images are used.
256 - check for refresh after initialising to avoid staying blank
257 till the first event arrives. or so.
258 - the FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT feature macro works again.
259 - continuously update transparency while moving/resizing now.
260 - OSC 39/49 are deprecated and aliased to OSC 10/11.
261 - cub1 now acts as advertised (and ignores the "wrapped" state).
262 - the 132/80 mode switch now forces a height of 24, too, and
263 resets the terminal.
264 - scrollbar code cleanups.
265 - stopping children is no longer confused with children exiting.
266 - removed (undocumented) #aarrggbb format.
267 - updated to libev 3.0.
268
2698.9 Mon Dec 24 07:51:40 CET 2007
270 - fix the issue where urxvtd would not immediately close a window
271 when the command exited but only on the next X event.
272 - changed terminfo file not to use application keypad mode.
273 - fix the issue where making a selection in one urxvtd window
274 would not clear it visually in another.
275 - fix an issue of urxvt not getting background pixmap updates
276 and flickering after bg pixmap changes (reported by Mikachu).
277 - fix redraw bug in xterm scrollbar with -sr (reported by Mikachu).
278 - correctly provide dependencies for libev (µikachu).
279 - minor code reorganisations and cleanups.
280 - be more robust in case the urxvt-popup extension cannot be loaded.
281
2828.8 Sat Dec 15 19:40:39 CET 2007
283 - option -C was aliased to all unsupported options, activating
284 options that shouldn't be compiled in, leading to interesting
285 effects.
286 - updated libev, working around a bug in linux 2.4, curing the
287 symptom of urxvt not closing its window on shell exit. also
288 fixes a problem with urxvt not refreshing.
289 - the text blink callback was called even when no blinking
290 text was visible.
291 - pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with
292 some minor improvements.
293 - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per
294 display and not once per terminal window.
295 - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations.
296
2978.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007
298 - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes
299 when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended).
300 - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills.
301
3028.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007
303 - upgrade libev to disable kqueue on anything but netbsd as it
304 seems to be broken everywhere else w.r.t. ptys.
305 - allow for spurious event notifications, as at least epoll and
306 especially solaris ports like to lie about them (symptoms:
307 urxvt "hangs" until there is some x11 related activity).
308 - -keysym command line options are now subjected to xlib parsing.
309 - add 'xrm' option analogous to Xt one.
310
3118.5a Wed Nov 21 10:16:33 CET 2007
312 - make it compile with --disable-transparency.
313
3148.5 Wed Nov 21 05:19:20 CET 2007
315 - expect major portability issues in this release: please test and report.
316 - converted from the veritable io manager event loop to
317 the high performance libev (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
318 - minor tuning to the perl selection (include single words and more quoting chars).
319 - fix memory leak in pixmap code.
320 - fix a serious bug while setting the XIM destroy callback
321 on (typical) 64 bit systems.
322 - automove-background functionality re-implemented internally using :root op in pixmap
323 geometry string. For example: rxvt -pixmap "image.jpg;:root"
324 - do not link rxvtc against every lib on the planet anymore.
325 - parallel builds should work once more.
326
3278.4 Sat Oct 27 14:02:13 CEST 2007
328 - overhaul of the transparency/pixmap code (sasha).
329 - fix possible race between visual bell and poweron.
330 (reported by Martin von Gagern, gentoo?).
331 - urxvt -e no longer crashes the child.
332 - fixed some minor memleaks on incorrect usage or
333 missing DISPLAY.
334 - implement xterm 1002/1003 mouse tracking modes (exg).
335 - source code organisational cleanups (exg).
336 - updated io_manager.
337
3388.3 Wed Aug 1 20:21:31 CEST 2007
339 - new option: skipScroll/-ss, enabled by default.
340 - go with the times and expect x11 library files in /usr/lib, not
341 /usr/X11R6/lib.
342 - initial transparency improvement/afterimage support
343 patch by Sasha Vasko.
344 - add urgentOnBell resource to set the urgency hint
345 (patch by Philip Paeps).
346 - do not process focus events caused by grabs
347 (patch by Mikachu).
348 - add iso14755_52 resource to disable iso14755 5.2 (exg).
349 - add binding for backspace in iso14755 5.1 to remove the last
350 digit (exg).
351 - better option handling, support more than 30 options (exg).
352 - nuke reconf script, serves no purpose anymore.
353 - fixed and documented matcher/on_user_command processing in matcher
354 extension (tpope).
355 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10 (exg).
356 - fix MappingNotify events (reported by Stephan Walter).
357 - zero-initialise mwmhints, this seems to solve all sorts of minor
358 problems.
359
3608.2 Sat Feb 17 21:35:28 CET 2007
361 - fix make depend in src/, reported by exg.
362 - fixed typo in urxvt::GET_CUSTOM, causing the result to be wrong.
363 (patch by Sergey Vlasov).
364 - unbundled iom perl interface somewhat.
365 - scrollbar-xterm now uses the selected scrollColor instead of fg
366 (found by Aiviru).
367 - disabled linux kernel bug workaround again: disabling it gives
368 a 50% speed hit on affected machines, while enabling it gives
369 a similar speed hit to screen, which is likely the more common
370 case to work around for :/
371 - urxvt::rend2mask perl function, and utilization of it by matcher
372 (patch by Moshe Kamensky).
373 - use perl:matcher on a keysym to open most recently displayed URL.
374 - with matcher, when multiple patterns match, last wins, not first.
375 - fix make and make install with srcdir != builddir (exg).
376 - updated bundled libptytty to fix a bug where the tty would be kept
377 open (see the libptytty ChangeLog for details).
378 - delay setting the IUTF8 flag to after the tty settings have been
379 set so its value does not get lost (reported and analysed by Andrei
380 Paskevich).
381 - rip out support for obsolete sgtty.h interface.
382 - rip out support for non-POSIX termios variants.
383 - update libptytty.
384 - update iom.C, make it call ptytty::sanitise_stdfd on init.
385 - when !XFT, change rounding of colours to use a less correct formula to
386 meet user expectancies (#aaa becomes #a000a000a000 not #9f9f9f9f9f9f).
387 - change the starting offset of the pixmap set with backgroundPixmap
388 from (50,50) to (0,0) (exg).
389 - fix a typo in button_release, now meta-button2 request the value of
390 the Clipboard selection as it should (patch by Serge Koksharov).
391 - fix a bug in drawing a cell with a nonspacing char when using an xft
392 font with inheritPixmap and tintColor (exg).
393
3948.1 Thu Dec 7 22:27:25 CET 2006
395 - ケリスマスプレゼント - zomg!!1, it's too early!!!
396 - fix the assumption that chars < 256 are single-width. Now
397 only assume this for codepoints 32 to 126 (reported by Dai.H.).
398 - $term->strwidth returned wide chars as width 1, because some jerk
399 confused min and max. Fixing this also fixes xim-onthespot.
400 Reported by Takano Akio.
401 - secondaryScroll is now enabled by default (as per the manpage),
402 reported by exg.
403 - correct the description of [percent]color rgba format in the manpage.
404 - incorporated macosx-clipboard extension by Samuel Ljungkvist.
405 - ignore (some) useless focus events (reported by mmc).
406 - updated compose table to unicode 5.0.0.
407
4088.0 Thu Nov 2 18:35:19 CET 2006
409 - combining characters cleared the area instead of creating an overlay,
410 thus losing the ability to draw combining characters properly in most
411 circumstances (reported by exg).
412 - specified fonts were incorrectly morphed to bold/italic according to the
413 basefont, even if explicitly specified (tracked down by tpope).
414 - fixed urxvt::strwidth to calculate width in the same way as screen.C.
415 - fix a crash caused by passing negative widths to overlay functions.
416 - added 'matcher' extension by tpope, replacing the mark-urls extension.
417 - improve url regex to match anything www.* (tpope).
418 - fixed bug with outline cursor color being wrong after xft fonts.
419 - update to libptytty-1.0.
420 - give proper diagnostic when RXVT_SOCKET is too long instead of
421 corrupting the stack (patch by exg).
422 - display current terminal locale in option menu.
423 - urxvtd no longer crashes when the client sends an inaccessible
424 working directory (reported by Roland Baer, possibly fixes gentoo
425 bug #143985).
426 - fixed many minor issues reported by Roland Baer.
427 - Leonid Khramov spotted a minor glitch in rxvtfont.C that
428 should not have any consequences, but was buggy nonetheless.
429 - manpage fix by exg.
430
4317.9 Mon Aug 7 18:16:07 CEST 2006
432 - fix the crashing bug people encountered with 7.8 + urxvtd + perl
433 + transparency. Ought to fix debian bug #380348.
434 - fix urxvtc.1.pod: it actually claimed -pty-fd would not work. But
435 it does! :->
436 - rxvt_fatal() in case the locale string is too long for our static buffer.
437 - fixed many, many, typos in the manpages (patch supplied by ves).
438
4397.8 Mon Jul 17 21:00:46 CEST 2006
440 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: this version will always read ~/.Xdefaults,
441 earlier versions only read it if display-resources (usually from
442 .Xresources) are not set. This avoids the #1 FAQ ("why isn't my
443 resource used") and seems to be logical behaviour, too. .Xdefaults
444 resources have a lower priority than display-specific resources.
445 - add "kuake" perl extension that does a similar thing to the kuake
446 terminal emulator (see man urxvtperl).
447 - use less "correct" color scaling that is compatible with libX11 and
448 Xft (avoids off-by-one colors resulting in striped backgrounds).
449 - the "depth" resource is now respected.
450 - preset the searchable-scrollback pattern with "(?i)" to default search
451 to case-insensitivity. Will automatically be cleared when typing an
452 uppercase character.
453 - add FORCE_UNBUFFERED_XFT define to features.h.
454 - re-enabled highlightcolor support with --enable-frills, based on
455 a patch by Martin Stubenschrott.
456 - double-buffered xft drawing did suffer from pixel offset issues
457 when pixmap transparency was enabled.
458 - strategically add # to the url-match regexes, as we really want to
459 match common URIs not common URLs. Reported by Aaron Griffin.
460 - moved on_osc_seq to on_osc_seq_perl and added a more
461 generic osc_seq.
462 - fix a bug causing double callback invocations when perl hooks
463 were invoked recursively.
464 - the automove-background extension now properly works when the
465 pixmap gets reset with an osc sequence (sqweek).
466 - selection-pastebin did not work properly with non-latin1-characters.
467 - apply colorUL only when the text colour is the default fg
468 (patch by Wu Fengguang).
469 - removed rxvtlib.h from the tarball, it had no reason to be there
470 (spotted by Decklin Foster).
471 - fix compiling with TRANSPARENT but !XPM_BACKGROUND, as reported
472 by omatunto_.
473 - slap in a using namespace std, might help on platforms that don't
474 follow C++ closely enough.
475 - fix mailto url regex, spotted within milliseconds by Jost Krieger.
476 - applied fade_color_update_func.patch by WU Fengguang.
477 - fix a bug where (due to an optimisation in av_delete), hiding the
478 bottom-most overlay would hide two overlays.
479
4807.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006
481 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware
482 combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense
483 of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author.
484 - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal
485 click, and eats the click.
486 - tabbed perl extension now supports -e.
487 - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any
488 refresh bugs please.
489 - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property
490 changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips,
491 improve size hint setting.
492 - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets
493 the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods
494 to correctly position their preedit window.
495 - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the
496 former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same
497 in empty spaces, but that's not true when reversing (e.g. selection),
498 so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where
499 selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours.
500 - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate
501 focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed.
502 - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting.
503 - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on
504 colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco).
505 - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly
506 (reported by Paco-Paco).
507 - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be
508 working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt.
509 - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
510
5117.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006
512 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix.
513 - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the
514 resource value.
515 - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument.
516 - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and key events to the
517 relevant tab window.
518 - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults
519 (initial patch by hednod).
520 - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and
521 selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime.
522 - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for
523 the benefit of automove-background.
524 - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset.
525 - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect.
526 - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted.
527 - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on
528 __linux__.
529 - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering
530 the colour components.
531 - plain scrollbar works better with -sr.
532 - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look.
533 - more colour rtt optimisations.
534 - properly(?) free colours on window close.
535 - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections.
536 - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets.
537 - minor libptytty update.
538
5397.5 Tue Jan 31 15:15:43 CET 2006
540 - further improvements to the careful mode detection, and font width
541 detection:
542 - fully double-wide fonts will now be correctly treated,
543 - overlap detection was improved.
544 - detect totally broken fonts (usually synthesized by xft).
545 - careful mode forced refresh sometimes clashed with blinking,
546 causing unnecessary screen redraws.
547 - better handling of XFT combining characters.
548 - enable antialiasing for some replacement fonts, as they
549 might get used for other encodings which really need it, later.
550 - remove spacing=100 from all default fonts, as this creates totally
551 weird spacing (5 times normal) with xft.
552 - removed iso10646 fallback, as xorgs iso10646 encoded fonts are mostly
553 broken.
554 - removed gnu unifont fallback, all combining characters are broken.
555 - replace named colours by xorg's rgb.txt equivalents, to
556 reduce round trip time on startup, and short-cut allocation
557 of rgb:rr/gg/bb for xft.
558 - short-cut allocation of rgb values in the xlib case
559 (patch by Paco-Paco).
560 - overhauled color management: smaller codesize, alpha support.
561 - support "rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa" color specifications and
562 an "[alpha]" prefix.
563 - try to work around Xft and Xrender forcing everything to be 100%
564 transparent. Long Live Xft!
565 - do not include X11/Intrinsic.h anymore, directly use
566 Xlib/Xutil/Xresource directly.
567 - try to find a nearest matching color when color allocation fails
568 on a pseudocolor screen.
569 - SYNCCVS: compared to rxvt-cvs 2006-01-28, no relevant changes.
570 - fix version report (DA) (which was unfortunately broken).
571 - changed version number report again, now to emulate xterm closer.
572 - added the OSC sequence 702 to detect the urxvt version number.
573 - small configure updates.
574 - further RTT optimisations.
575 - backported clean-up patches for makefiles and documentation from
576 the debian package.
577 - updated doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file. It's still not maintained here,
578 but much newer than the old one.
579
5807.4 Sat Jan 28 15:26:27 CET 2006
581 - screen background wasn't always erased properly when scrolling,
582 - re-enabled clearing optimisation disabled in 7.4pre.
583 - small configure updates for libptytty.
584 - fixed version options: line output.
585 - removed stoopid debugging message left in the code.
586
5877.3 Wed Jan 25 22:47:35 CET 2006
588 - don't let iso14755 or mouse reporting get into the way of perl
589 (could lead to global grabs never being cleared).
590 - experimental OnTheSpot editing support (-pe xim-onthespot).
591 - moved Shift-Button2 paste combination to Meta-Button2.
592 - the cutchars resource will now be respected and used by the
593 selection extension.
594 - added the "remote-clipboard" extension which just runs external
595 commands to fetch and store the selection data.
596 - added -depth switch that tries to get a different visual depth
597 than the default (replaces the old PREFER_24_BIT logic).
598 - removed (unused) arabic presentation form composing sequences.
599 - be more strict when deciding that a core font glyph is too wide and
600 needs the careful rendering mode.
601 - allow more leeway for italic fonts when deciding that a character is
602 too wide and needs careful mode.
603 - redraw even more characters around characters using careful mode.
604 - made selection-pastebin fully asynchronous.
605 - reduced number of server turnarounds at startup by allocating
606 atoms only once per display.
607 - renamed on_keyboard_command to on_user_command.
608 - changed version sos (ESC [ > c) response to be more compatible with
609 xterm.
