or changed rxvt behaviour to make it more compatible to xterm (usually
xfree86's xterm).
-TODO: implement xterm keymap option, for full TERM=xterm compliance.
-TODO: multibyte support for setwmname et al.
-TODO: there are other todo items, but they are not in this file.
-TODO: tabbed windows
+TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
+FEAT: hotkey font resizing
+FEAT: searchable backlog
+FEAT: meta-tagging of data by regex (my dream project)
+FEAT: triple-click == select full output line
+FEAT: double-click: more intelligent (urls etc.)
+FEAT: OnTheSpot editing.
+FEAT: tabbed windows (hey, just use screen...)
+
+ - completely re-wrote selection pasting. This should fix garbled
+ incomplete characters at 32k boundaries and too-short INCR
+ selections, and more. Increases memory requirements considerably
+ for large selections, but that seems unavoidable.
+
+4.4 Sun Dec 12 22:10:06 CET 2004
+ - rewrote handling of default-char width.
+ - implement _NET_WM_NAME et al., and also use UTF8_STRING
+ for the xterm property esc. sequence. Allows i18n window
+ titles etc.
+ - SMART_WINDOW_TITLE removed, pls. complain if you need this.
+ - added GBK encoding (formidable patch by WU Fengguang).
+ - fixed a bug in the transparency code.
+ - upgraded iom.[Ch].
+ - force slower (but more responsive) transparency update.
+ - fix off-by-one bug with wide characters at the end of a line,
+ which got partially overwritten by spaces.
+ - as xlib is completely broken with respect to utf-8 handling
+ and nobody is going to fix it, that part has been re-implemented.
+ should fix most paste problems between apps that use UTF8 encoding
+ and rxvt running in a lesser-supported locale (thanks to Robin Redeker
+ for writing utf8towcs). Only enabled with ENABLE_FRILLS.
+ - darwin compile fix by Ethan Blanton.
+ - fix the colour of the underline, which was rather random before.
+
+4.3 Sat Dec 4 04:58:37 CET 2004
+ - unapply the "emulated graphical chars. respect wcwidth" patch.
+ obviously in locales not having these characters they should
+ still have a width. Solve it correctly by not relying on wcwidth.
+ Note to self: do not ever apply patches without checking them
+ thoroughly.
+ - updated .spec file, it's included in the release tarball
+ now, too.
+
+4.2 Wed Dec 1 03:30:22 CET 2004
+ - make emulated graphical characters respect wcwidth (Kuang-che Wu).
+ - remove debugging code that caused major slowdowns
+ on high-latency networks.
+ - wide characters shift the correct number of characters
+ in insert mode now. Reported by Gunnar Ritter.
+ - doc/rxvt-unicode.spec file contributed by Ville Herva.
+ - make storage of tab movements as characters optional
+ on the -ptab option and pastableTabs: resource. On request
+ by Gunnar Ritter.
+ - fix a bug where :size= argument for xft fonts was ignored
+ or used incorrectly. Reported by Ville Herva.
+
+4.1 Sun Nov 21 21:10:19 CET 2004
+ - save and restore cursor position in secondary screen regardless of
+ -ssc/-ssr settings.
+ - fix some 64-bit bugs that lead to crashes with certain other
+ programs like vncviewer (original rxvt also affected).
+ - added doc/podtbl to the dist tarball.
+ - add compile fix for darwin.
+ - configure fix for transparency without tinting.
+ - changed CN to ZH _really_ everywhere.
+ - upgraded iom.[Ch].
+
+4.0 Mon Sep 13 01:10:26 CEST 2004
+ - turn off autohinting for some badly-hinted fallback fonts.
+ - mnaapge tpyo crorcetoins by Bastian Kleineidam.
+ - implemented rectangular selections (button+meta), experimental.
+ - implement race-free signal handling in iom.C.
+ - use iom.C signal handling to avoid races in signal handling.
+ - use default action on SIGINT and SIGQUIT, instead of terminating.
+ - "the return of the 100 times per second refresh bug".
+ ... terminated by a fix.
+ - new supported preeeditType "None".
+ - added FAQ about possible compose key problems.
+ - changed CN to ZH everywhere (sorry for the confusion).
+ - move XFilterEvent up, as some input method seem to want events
+ for windows not requesting XIM. Please report if this change
+ causes any harm (specially with pointerblanking)
+ (patch by Kuang-che Wu).
+ - send the input method spot position on every refresh, not just
+ when rxvt thinks it should (which was not often enough...).
+ - fix double-wide combining characters (it might look a bit ugly,
+ though, but common cases are handled by normalization anyways).
+ - moved FAQ to rxvt(7), also made a copy into README.FAQ.
+ - fix a bug(?) in the XIM destroy callback.
+ - be more conservative when trying to register new input methods,
+ as Xlib races might make rxvt crash. When two or more
+ input methods are active, killing one probably still crashes rxvt
+ due to that bug :( Thanks a lot to Kuang-che Wu for immense help
+ in tracking this down.
+ - manpages (but not .txt and .html versions) will be patched (during
+ make install) with the correct program name and other info.
+
+3.9 Wed Aug 25 19:24:04 CEST 2004
+ - the change to unsigned int from unsigned short broke
+ many signed comparisons, resulting in failed assertions.
+
+3.8 Wed Aug 25 05:46:56 CEST 2004
+ - WARNING: TERM=rxvt-unicode is now *default* unless compiled
+ differently. A terminfo entry will automatically be compiled and
+ installed if tic is available.
+ - fixed some --disable switches that didn't work.
+ - tweaked src/features.h a bit.
+ - removed README.unicode.
+ - support select&paste of tab characters.
+ - fixed a segfault when trying to load nonexistant fonts (reported
+ by Eduard Bloch and Mikael Magnusson).
+ - fixed a long-standing rxvt bug in which rxvt failed to save
+ and restore the correct cursor position on the secondary screen.
+ - reworked rxvt-unicode terminfo to allow more efficient and less flickering
+ screen updates with curses.
+ - wide characters that are being halfway overwritten are now replaced
+ by spaces.
+ - urxvtc now transmits urxvt as default name, not urxvtc anymore
+ (likewise for other names chosen at configure time).
+ - disabled the automatic font lookup for unknown characters. xft
+ is just too slow for this to work.
+ - changed realbold code, implemented _real_ bold and italic support,
+ where _real_ means the symbiosis of what I want with what I can
+ implement. use --enable-styles.
+ - removed 256 color mode, but enable 88 colours in all modes
+ (88 to be compatible with 88 colour xterm which is widely
+ supported, and most programs assume a non-iso colourtable
+ for terminals with "odd" number of colours).
+ - added doc/etc/rxvt-unicode.terminfo which is a big overhaul
+ compared to the old rxvt terminfo.
+ - sped up xft rendering by 30% *iff* the font allows it (i.e. is
+ monospaced "enough") *and* matches the base font in width.
+ - implement positive and negative character-font caching, which
+ speeds up output immensely in case a character cannot be found
+ (only for non-bold right now).
+ - fix segfault in fading code on certain escape sequences.
+ - better default font size and style.
+ - rxvt-unicode is now much more picky about fonts not fitting
+ into the base font, but to offset this it will check each
+ single character against the base font extents and will only
+ use the characters fitting into the bounding box (+ some fudge).
+ - characters not fitting into the base boundary box will now often
+ be used anyways, but the following characters will be redrawn
+ more often to avoid pixel-droppings. This is like the original
+ rxvt pixel-dropping pass but it's much faster.
+ - scrollColor now affects plain scrollbar (Mikael Magnusson).
+ - fixed segfault in overlay code when height was larger than the
+ screen height.
+ - cursor no longer shines "through" the overlay.
+ - 7-bit ST marker detection was broken.
+ - scrollbar didn't come back sometimes when switching it
+ off/on using escape sequences (Mikael Magnusson).
+ - fix lots of colour problems with focus fading.
+ - $COLORFGBG was not set as documented.
+ - fix iso 14755 5.1 support when --enable-frills but --disable-iso14755.
+ - removed OSC 702.
+ - disabled MOUSE_REPORT_DOUBLECLICK by default, as programs seem to be
+ confused by it rather than using it.
3.7 Tue Aug 17 04:22:25 CEST 2004
- new configure option --enable-iso14755.
