+
+5.1
+ - fix a bug when parsing fontnames and another one
+ for empty keymaps which could result in crashes
+ (Kuang-che Wu).
+ - add COPYING back, which got lost somehow.
+
+5.0 Fri Feb 11 18:31:48 CET 2005
+ - document a race-free hack to start urxvtd.
+ - document all(?) environment variables used and set by rxvt.
+ - bring xgetdefault-style resource file ordering more in line with
+ Xt, and document it in rxvt(1).
+ - correctly use screen-dependent resources when --enable-xgetdefault,
+ and also fix some memory bugs (thanks to Thierry Reding for
+ his patience and time in tracking this down).
+ - bring own resource parsing more in line with X resource parsing,
+ most notably, don't remove double quotes.
+ - compile fix for freebsd (no ut_id) (Thierry Thomas).
+ - clean up utmp and pty on X I/O errors and signals (idea
+ by Joël Riou).
+ - "un"document -xrm, it never really worked, was only
+ available with --enable-xgetdefault, is not necessary
+ and is surprisingly hard to implement.
+ - shaved off some code segment size.
+ - various code cleanups.
+ - more keysym-mapping fixes.
+
+4.9 Thu Feb 3 09:52:03 CET 2005
+ - nuke out utmp entries completely. Should be fixed in
+ original rxvt, too. (reported by James Michael Fultz).
+ - resizes wil now correctly refresh the displayed text when
+ -pixmap is active.
+ - new option/resource imFont.
+ - document --tripleclickwords/-tcw.
+ - select logical instead of physical lines when doing a triple-click.
+ - reordered help listing to group similar options together.
+ - handle SIGINT the same way as SIGTERM (reported by Joël Riou).
+ - fix a bug introduced while applying the keyboard patch
+ (WU Fengguang).
+ - document all window-op sequences (rxvt.7.) and more keysym
+ examples (rxvt.1).
+ - removed src/test completely.
+ - renamed keysym 'proto:'-prefix to 'command:'.
+
+4.8 Tue Jan 18 02:23:57 CET 2005
+ - added a patch by WU Fengguang that makes the keyboard
+ highly configurable (e.g. locale changes, custom escape
+ sequences, and more). See keysym resource in rxvt(1).
+ - remove default key sequence for unknown keys again, as this
+ can be achieved by customizing the keyboard now.
+ - fix some freeing problems when destroying the rxvt_display,
+ resulting in segfaults.
+ - don't crash when the saved cursor position doesn't fit on the
+ screen (wrong assert in original rxvt, reported by ikaro).
+ - fix signed/unsigned bugs on wc<->mb conversions.
+ - reset slipwheel scrolling speed when reaching the top or bottom
+ (Mikael Magnusson).
+ - for core fonts, use ascent + descent when a font is loaded,
+ and PIXEL_SIZE when not. when loading a font, iterate until a
+ font has been found that _really_ fits the height (reported and
+ tested by Olivier Wittenberg).
+ - set IUTF8 input flag, when defined (linux-2.6.5+).
+ - only define _XOPEN_SOURCE on solaris.
+ - autogenerate src/* dependency list.
+ - fixed linespace option, which ought to work now (and is dependent
+ on frills, not on it's own configure option).
+ - include pty.h, if available (cygwin).
+ - removed W11 directory from dist, it wasn't used anyway.
+ - initialize the locale much earlier.
+ - fixed two tiny per-instance memory leaks.
+
+4.7 Wed Dec 29 20:54:24 CET 2004
+ - fix a bug in the event logic that could cause the temrinal to be
+ black on initial startup.
+ - do NOT call XCloseIM, ever. This causes way to many crashes due to
+ races in the protocol and within Xlib.
+ - map iso-left-tab to the same sequence as shift-tab.
+ - generate a unique escape sequence for many unknown keys, such as
+ additional multimedia keys.
+ - mask out high (non-unicode) bits on wide characters, to cope with
+ implementations that store tag info in the high bits.
+
+4.6 Thu Dec 16 07:54:23 CET 2004
- try very hard not to exhaust the kernel tty buffers, even
- if it slows down large pastes.
+ if it slows down large pastes and is only cosmetic.
+ - streamline atom and xft color allocation to reduce startup
+ time (12.8s -> 7.8s on my dsl). Still, doing it with only 2-3
+ turnarounds would be much faster, but impossible to implement(?).
+ - implement underlineColor resource when ENABLE_FRILLS.
+ - iom left it's signal pipe handle open in the child
+ process. Fortunately not security-relevant as the pipe data gets
+ ignored.
+ - do not use XSETROOTPMAP_ID anymore, support ESETROOT_PMAP_ID
+ instead.
+ - fix a crash in rxvtd when the last window was being closed
+ (reported by hednod).
+ - fix an unlikely memory leak.
+ - fix atom name enumeration.
4.5 Mon Dec 13 07:47:16 CET 2004
- fix an extremely nasty bug in utf8-conversion. upgrade is advised.
for the keymappings.
- don't leave the X or rxvtd sockets open in child processes.
(inherited fd's stay open - different to rxvt).
- - xterm: implemented OSC3, set/get window property. get is an
- extension and is slightly ugly.
+ - xterm-compat: implemented OSC3, set/get window property. get is
+ an extension and is slightly ugly.
- removed --disable-swapscreen and SCROLL_ON_NO_SECONDARY and
replaced them by runtime-configurable options secondaryScreen and
secondaryScroll (-ssr and -ssc) (see debian bug #237673).
- close down terminal window when child exits. (debian bug #241267).
- - xterm: enable seperate mouse bg colour setting.
+ - xterm-compat: enable seperate mouse bg colour setting.
- re-enable mouse cursor colours again, fixing colours when fg/bg are
overwritten (as is common).
- - xterm: correctly implement privmodes 1047, 1048, 1049.
+ - xterm-compat: correctly implement privmodes 1047, 1048, 1049.
- ported to solaris by elmar@math.uni-bremen.de.
2.6 Fri Apr 2 03:24:10 CEST 2004
- WARNING: changed menu sequence from ESC ] 10 to ESC ] 703 to
avoid clashes with xterm.
- changed OSC701/OSC702 sequence to return standard escaped reports.
- - xterm: make set window colour and other requests report window
- colour when arg is "?".
+ - xterm-compat: make set window colour and other requests report
+ window colour when arg is "?".
- enable colour tinting of "transparent" backgrounds.
- stop ST sequences earlier, as we now react on 0x90 and thus
cause conditions more often that look like locks but are, in
