1 2.5 Sun Mar 28 04:05:51 CEST 2004
2 - the usual sprinkled little code cleanups.
3 - support more 8-bit controls.
4 - more informative error messages.
5 - fix some minor memleaks and possible memory corruptions.
6 - the use of exception handling allowed the following improvements:
7 - no longer block when waiting for completion of escape sequences
8 (e.g. printf '\e';sleep 3;printf 'c' will no longer block).
9 - rxvtc usage errors should no longer kill rxvtd (debian bug #237510).
10
11 2.4 Tue Mar 16 07:06:51 CET 2004
12 - fix stupid double-free() bug on exit.
13 - implement xterm private mode 1049.
14 - fix manpages (debian bug #236824).
15 - removed old selection style completely.
16 - selection works _better_ for non-8-bit and double-width chars.
17 - remove native->unicode translation tables. they aren't used anymore.
18 reduces binary and distro size a bit.
19 - add string representation for JIS X 0213:2000 so these fonts can
20 be used from within rxvt.
21 - less buggy complete set of line-drawing-characters (0x2500-0x259f).
22
23 2.3 Sun Mar 14 19:00:07 CET 2004
24 - code cleanup release.
25 - fix compile problems without --enable-combining.
26 - fix segfault when DISPLAY cannot be opened.
27 - removed HOTKEY_CTRL and HOTKEY_SHIFT, ACS_*, FONT0_IDX,
28 MAX_NFONTS. UNICODE and UTF8 defines and references from
29 all files.
30 - default config now reads an app-defaults file even without
31 --enable-xgetdefaults.
32
33 2.2 Thu Mar 11 01:41:56 CET 2004
34 - implement autocompositing of characters by either using an existing
35 precomposed unicode character or by graphical overlay. this is
36 also used to store characters >16bit without --enable-unicode3.
37 - selection now based on wchar_t, so that it can offer UTF-8
38 selections even in locales unable to represent full unicode.
39 - tis620-2529 is, of course, thai, not vietnamese...
40 - a typoe prevented characters >65535 to be stored properly.
41 - wcwidth is unreliable in non-unicode-locales on GNU/Linux.
42 working around this fixes line-drawing characters in non-utf-8 mode.
43 - improved rounding when emulating line-drawing characters.
44 - implement continuation lines in xresource parsing when
45 --disable-xgetdefault.
46 - changed locale-setting esc-sequence from code 9 to code 701.
47 also added 702 that returns the font selected for a specific
48 unicode character.
49 - no longer set XA_CUT_BUFFER0. this is confusing and clients WILL
50 get it wrong.
51 - don't use XTextStyle for XA_TEXT, instead use XStdICCTextStyle.
52
53 2.1 Wed Mar 3 21:48:39 CET 2004
54 - NOTE: the name of the binary and ressources were changed in
55 this version, see README.configure if you want the old
56 settings.
57 - added plain "big5" encoding into CN.
58 - make cns11643 and big5* encodings actually visible to rxvt.
59 - fix a bug when a multibyte character fell onto a buffer boundary,
60 causing the incomplete character to be presented twice to
61 mbrtowc.
62 - more robust encoding name matching.
63 - fix cursor placement on multibyte characters.
64 - when overwriting wide with narrow chars, pad with spaces.
65 - fix various refresh and display issues for wide chars.
66 - remove multibyte_cursor hack (it was a hack) and associated
67 resources and docs.
68 - fixed memory corruption bug with XLFD fontname parsing.
69
70 2.0 Sun Feb 29 23:59:58 CET 2004
71 - do not blink text when background colour is not set explicitly.
72 - some doc cleanup
73 - configure cleanup
74 - viscii enabled by default
75 - better support for non-g++-3.2+ systems (tested with g++-2.95).
76
77 1.91 Fri Feb 27 03:57:44 CET 2004
78 - build fixes for !xft and !im, reported by various people.
79
80 1.9 Wed Feb 25 16:46:05 CET 2004
81 - fixed bug in plain scrollbar causing X errors in XCreateGC.
82 - implemented sharing of X connections. will be used to speed
83 up many x operations considerably. Also saves some memory.
84 - implemented caching of input methods. This immensely shortens
85 startup time for new terms in rxvtd. At least XFree86 4.3 is
86 rather broken with respect to input methods, though, so expect
87 crashes when you kill your input method (xterm et al. also crash).
88 - fix bugs in X flushing, causing an empty screen after startup.
89 - fix various memleaks in rxvtd.
90 - fix a bug that kept escape codes to be generated for some
91 keysyms that also have string translations, when not --enable-xim.
92 reported by joel reed.
93 - re-enabled esc-seq. for font-switching (\033 ] 50 ; <fontset> \007).
94 - re-enabled menubar (experimental!).
95 - fix bug in locale-handling that kept the correct locale from
96 being selected.
97 - implemented esc-seq. to switch locales (\033 ] 9 ; <locale> \007).
98 - removed greek support.
99 - allow NUL bytes (ctrl-@) to be entered even with XIM enabled.
100 - correct cursor width if !focus.
101 - fixed --enable-xgetdefault, reported by eduard bloch.
102 - added manpage for rxvtc/rxvtd based on the one eduard block
103 contributed.
104 - use reverse video for normal bold text unless colorBD has been set.
105 - fixed endless loop when selection is valid but empty.
106 - changed default terminal name to "rxvt".
107 - many other minor bugfixes.
108
109 1.8 Mon Feb 2 20:09:18 CET 2004
110 - almost total conversion to C++. Except for introducing
111 new bugs, this should not change much.
112 - fix and re-enable background pixmap and inherit pixmap support.
113 - re-enabled multiple scrollbar support.
114 - added plain scrollbar style and restored xterm scrollbar.
115 - blinking and selections work slightly better now.
116 - fix an error condition when rxvt receives more than one screenful
117 of output. should occur with original rxvt, too, but very rarely.
118 (I guess the code contains more surprises of this sort...)
119
120 1.7 Fri Jan 30 16:50:11 CET 2004
121 - further cleanups.
122 - never do last-minute-changes: restore ability to have
123 color + bold ass high-intensity, and let the selection
124 use reverse video, not _blink_.
125 - remove OPTION_HC, at least temporarily. If you want it back,
126 please drop me a note.
127
128 1.6 Fri Jan 30 00:34:01 CET 2004
129 - cleanups, minor bugfixes.
130 - blinking text.
131 - normal text color + bold gets white text instead of
132 normal text when colorBD is not set.
133 (- support double-byte characters (by blocking).)
134 was not implemented
135
136 1.5 Thu Jan 29 00:43:48 CET 2004
137 - share io manager between rxvt-unicode and vpe
138 - bugfix for --disable-utmp, reported by fefe himself
139 - colors were sometimes not used correctly because
140 parts of the code expected a monochrome display.
141 reported by fefe
142 - make it compile without pointer_blank, reported by
143 Markus Demleitner
144 - improved selection support, now supports UTF8_STRING
145 and properly encodes CUT_BUFFER0 in iso-8859-1
