39 - NOTICE: this release updates terminfo.
40 - fix pixel droppings on overdraw when a secondary core font has the
41 same height but different ascent.
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 DECSCUSR xterm extension to set the cursor to a vertical bar.
45 - add 'extension:string' action, and associated on_action perl
46 hook, for keysym resources that invokes actions provided by
47 perl extensions. The 'perl:string' action and
48 on_user_command hook are deprecated but still supported.
49 - add 'builtin-string' action for keysym resources that restores string
50 mappings for keys that have predefined actions in urxvt.
51 - add -k option to urxvtc for killing the daemon process.
52 - add -dockapp option to make the wm treat urxvt as a dockapp.
53 - add -mc option and multiClickTime resource to set the maximum time
54 between multi-click select events (patch by Joe Peterson).

56 bindings. The extension also provides methods that implement basic
57 actions, such as pasting selections and scrolling.
58 - the macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native extensions have been removed.
59 - kuake extension now uses the kuake.hotkey resource to specify the hotkey.
60 - new 'matcher:select' mode of matcher to iterate over the matches with the keyboard.
61 - the 'matcher:list' feature of matcher now honours the launcher
62 associated to a matched pattern.
63 - speed-up matcher underlining on very long lines (reported by Edward Z. Yang).
64 - fix up/down commands of searchable-scrollback so that they always move
65 to the previous/next logical line with a match, if any.
66 - searchable-scrollback resource has been deprecated (use keysym instead).
67 - extension parameter passing is deprecated (use resource mechanism instead).
68 - upgrade to GPLv3 (see COPYING).
69 - compile out of the box on Solaris 10, again.
70 - fix height and position of the stippled area in next scrollbar (patch
71 by Thomas Otto).
72 - fix off-by-one bug causing the iso14755 window not to jump out of the
73 way properly.
74 - fix crash that may happen if a lib to which urxvt is linked to calls setenv.
75 - fix memory leak in special_{encode,decode} perl methods.
76 - fix refresh bug that occurs when reverse video is set on a cell
77 containing a space and with the same bg and fg color, red hat bug
78 #830236.
79 - fix crash that may happen if an x error is received after a terminal
80 window/popup has bene destroyed already.
81

83 - (libptytty) fix bug that prevented urxvtd from writing utmp
84 entries when using --fork (reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
85 - security bugfix: window property values could be queried even
86 in secure mode (reported by Conor McCarthy).
87 - fix build when perl is enabled and fading is disabled.
88 - fix regression that broke continuous scrolling when pressing
89 and holding the scrollbar up or down button, gentoo bug #493992.
90 - increase the maximum length of a command sequence to 32k bytes,
91 to allow longer OSC sequences (previous limit was 2k).
92 - new Ctrl-Meta-c and Ctrl-Meta-v bindings to interact with
93 the CLIPBOARD selection.
94 - new extension: selection-to-clipboard.
95 - the extensions macosx-clipboard and macosx-clipboard-native
96 are deprecated and will be removed in the next release.
97 Support for the clipboard on OS X can be more generally
98 enabled by setting the XQuartz preference to sync the OS X
99 pasteboard and the X11 clipboard.
100
1019.19 Sun Oct 27 17:16:07 CET 2013
102 - work around perl 5.18.0 breakage in tabbed extension
103 (reported by Karol Blazewicz) and in pod (Dominic Hargreaves).
104 - fix regression that caused the double-click word selection to
105 erroneously include a tab on the left of the selected word.
106 - implement FOCUS variable and focus_fade function in background
107 expression, to allow focus-sensitive background images.
108 - add support for the set cursor style (DECSCUSR) control
109 function.
110 - honour cursorColor also when the cursor style is underline.
111 - export some Color_xxx constants to Perl.
112
1139.18 Sun Mar 24 15:33:35 CET 2013
114 - fix regression that caused artifacts on resize.
115
1169.17 Fri Mar 1 13:46:08 CET 2013
117 - add shade operator in background perl extension.
118 - avoid starting or ending the selection in the middle of wide
119 characters to avoid artifacts (reported by Tiago Resende).
120 - fix artifacts that may occur if the character in the cursor
121 cell has width > 1 (reported by Tiago Resende).
122 - fix regression that causes artifacts on scrolling if
123 saveLines is 0 and the window is resized (reported by Bert
124 Münnich).
125 - fix build when perl is enabled and pixbuf and transparency
126 are disabled.
127
1289.16 Thu Dec 27 11:56:43 CET 2012
129 - the "so much new stuff your eyes will pop out" release.
130 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed urlLauncher resource to url-launcher.
131 - fix processing of DEC private mode save sequences (patch by Patrick
132 Hemmer).
133 - perl extensions now have their own manpages, installed as urxvt-NAME(1),
134 e.g. urxvt-background(1) - see urxvt-extensions(1) for a list.
135 - fix disabling of cursor blink with the option-popup menu (based on a
136 patch by Jan Larres).
137 - the font height is not augmented anymore when lineSpace is non zero.
138 - fix "new pagemap" vs. "delete pagemap" mismatch ([] vs. non-[]),
139 as diagnosed by clang.
140 - fix height mismatch between active and inactive cursor when
141 lineSpace is non zero (patch by Stanislav Seletskiy).
142 - make it compile with LOCAL_X_IS_UNIX again (reported by
143 nickfailure@gmail.com).
144 - completely redone background pixmap support - users can now
145 specify arbitrary expressions (And programs) that calculate
146 new terminal backgrounds. see the urxvt-background manpage
147 for details.
148 - xrender is now required for background pixmap support.
149 - perl extensions can now provide commandline switches and resources
150 which show up in -help etc.
151 - iso14755 51 mode window now displays row and column.
152 - implement a -visual switch and move that and -depth to frills, also
153 warn when we can't get the requested visual.
154 - new env variable: RXVT_PERL_LIB.
155 - allocate all screen memory in one go and let the virtual memory
156 subsystem sort it out. this simplifies code, improves access
157 locality, saves a bit of ram and makes things a bit faster, too.
158 - remove support for libafterimage.
159 - update to CVS version of libev, for a whopping 11kb size decrease.
160 - do not ship yet another copy of ecb.h, use the one in libev or
161 libptytty instead.
162 - selectively mark some methods as cache-hot/cache cold, which
163 might speed up execution but definitely decreases codesize.
164 - Fix regression that prevented the scrollbar trough color
165 from being applied (reported by Derek B. Noonburg).
166 - Fix the scrollbar size for rxvt style (patch by Mark Robinson).
167
1689.15 Sat Jan 21 13:36:56 CET 2012
169 - remove "using namespace std" because clang erroneously
170 thinks thats an error.
171 - finding a matching font (e.g. bold version of the base font)
172 was broken (reported by Eamon Walker).
173 - fix parsing of bg image styles. They really work now.
174 - fix blurring of bg image borders when using xrender.
175 - fix xrender blur on common xrender implementations that do
176 not behave correctly when the same pixmap is used as source
177 and destination in composite operations.
178 - fix regression that caused tabbed to compute the wrong size
179 for tabs.
180 - allow again an empty suffix in a keysym list spec (patch by
181 Sung Pae).
182 - unsupported support for sun studio's CC added.
183 - fix -C option on solaris.
184
1859.14 Wed Dec 21 18:40:33 CET 2011
186 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the urxvtd default socket path is now
187 $HOME/.urxvt/urxvtd-<nodename>.
188 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the "list" keysym expansion now requires
189 loading of the "keysym-list" perl extension.
190 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: A scale value of 0 in the bg image
191 geometry no longer enables tiling, so as to make it possible
192 to disable both scaling and tiling.
193 - overhaul of the bg image operations. The old operations have
194 been deprecated in favour of elementary operations and
195 styles built on top of the new operations and scale/position
196 settings. (Emanuele Giaquinta).
197 - support for libafterimage is deprecated and will be removed
198 in the next release.
199 - fix a crash caused by selection_check not properly resetting
200 out-of-bounds mark values (can happen when extending a selection
201 while scrolling up in curses programs for example).
202 - do not move the selection when scrolling up and the selection is
203 outside the scrolling region (Emanuele Giaquinta).
204 - fix display of bold bright black (reported by Ben Winslow).
205 - fix memory leak when urgentOnBell is set (patch by Nathaniel
206 Filardo).
207 - fix a redraw bug that occurs when a bg pixmap is set and the
208 wm does not honour the size hints set by urxvt. Now urxvt
209 forces the size of the terminal window to be a multiple of
210 the cell size.
211 - sanitise the argument of SD / SU sequences. Fixes a possible
212 crash when the argument is big enough, red hat bug #711137
213 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
214 - correctly split long lines when scrolling.
215 - urxvt now looks for perl extensions also in $HOME/.urxvt/ext.
216 - add bell-command perl extension to execute a command when a
217 bell event occurs (Ryan Kavanagh).
218 - add set_urgency perl binding to set/reset the urgency hint.
219 - consume button release event in matcher (exg).
220 - keyboard accessible list of recent matches in matcher
221 (Bob Farrell).
222 - properly process 'keysym' sequences in tabbed when using
223 'focus follows mouse' and the focus is on the main window
224 but not on the active terminal window (patch by Martin
225 Pohlack).
226 - support for the freedesktop startup-notification protocol (patch by
227 Michael Stapelberg).
228 - the direction of VPR and VPB commands was reversed.
229 - fix alignment of inherited root pixmap when it is a different size
230 than the root window and the terminal window is off the left or top
231 edge (Mikachu).
232 - make $self visible in "eval perl expression" popup action, also
233 handle exceptions better.
234 - fix parsing of '-e' when it occurs as an option argument, such as in
235 'urxvt -title -e' (Emanuele Giaquinta).
236
2379.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011
238 - fix regression in processing of SelectionNotify events.
239 urxvt would fail to request a selection if the owner did not
240 support the UTF8_STRING target.
241 - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more
242 likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as
243 urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151
244 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
245 - restore support for 'list' syntax in keysym resources (requested by Sung Pae).
246 - always premultiply colour values - while this increases differences between
247 core fonts and xft, it is "more correct" in practical situations.
248 - disable PTYTTY_REENTRANT option - not needed for urxvt and saves a bit of code.
249 - remove lucidatypewriter from the list of fallback fonts, it was the only
250 non-xft non-cellfont in the list anyway.
251
2529.11 Mon May 2 10:34:46 CEST 2011
253 - fix compilation on GNU/Hurd, debian bug #624736.
254 - remove 'list' syntax for keysym resources, as it serves no useful purpose.
255 If you need it, poke us and provide a use case.
256 - fix alpha channel support. Premultiply alpha in colours if the visual
257 supports an alpha channel, as xrender expects premultiplied alpha
258 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
259 - fix reply to a selection request sent by an obsolete client
260 such as syncterm (patch by Marcin Cieslak).
261 - fix crash when the window is resized and the overlay is active
262 (Emanuele Giaquinta, reported by Ryan Kavanagh).
263 - match character-wise rather than byte-wise in selection
264 extension again. perl 5.8.9+ is required to avoid extreme
265 slowdowns. Fixes debian bugs #523072, #616463.
266 - fix a possible crash if the INCR transfer process for a
267 selection property timeouts and at least one chunk is
268 received. (Emanuele Giaquinta)
269 - work around a memory corruption bug in xorg's XrmSetDatabase (apparently
270 broken since http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit-diffs/2004-March/000239.html).
271 - fix memory corruption bug when custom command sequences bound to keys
272 were injected into an already-full pty input buffer.
273 - gdk-pixbuf is autodetected by default and preferred over libafterimage.
274 - do not prepend a newline to the selection text when the starting line
275 of the selection is not highlighted (Emanuele Giaquinta).
24 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case 276 - don't swap perl env with real env, save and restore it, just in case
25 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace 277 we ever get recursive perl invocations. also saves a bit of codespace
26 with gcc. 278 with gcc.
279 - fix various memory leaks (Emanuele Giaquinta).
280 - fix typo in kIC terminfo capability, debian bug #446444.
281 - document 'thickness' resource.
27 - fix debian bug #504817, tot he extend possible. 282 - fix debian bug #504817, to the extent possible.
283 - try to detect byte order at compile time, saves a couple of
284 hundred bytes, if your compiler is smart enough.
285 - add support for previewing the pasted data in confirm-paste
286 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
287 - added "newlines to spaces" option in selection-popup.
288 - actually enabled solaris event ports backend (was disabled by accident).
289 - revert to 38400 baud max., mission accomplished.
290 - no longer create scary "pty_fill: PLEASE REPORT" message, instead,
291 silently drain the input (problem is well understood now).
292 - no longer swallow rob nation's own graphics mode commands.
